Quentin @docqviterboand Vanessa @docv3 took us boating on board the Raphaelle from Barra
They had videoke but no one grabbed the mike 🙂 
Beautiful Mañoza home by the hill in Barra owned by a Filipina married to an Italian ophthalmologist. It even has a tennis court #h2hcapiz #h2hhomes
we went to Mabaay and Tuwad island. Legend is there was a giant that they chopped up so its body parts became islands which is why the islands are named after body parts 
Talon adventure park owned by Quentin’s cousin – Bordoy Viterbo. They have cottages by the beach, ATVs, hiking, water sports
We had lunch on the boat 
and even had foot massages.
You can rent the Raphaelle or Raft17 in Barra so you can go around the beautiful islands in Capiz #h2hcapiz#itsmorefuninthephilippines
The reason why we are in Capiz. 
We accompanied Quentin @docqviterbo and Vanessa @docv3 to visit Quentin’s mom. I got my wish to meet them. The very simple couple who practically owns Capiz chooses to live in her old house which I actually love –
Tita Marlyn who is 81 years old and still so strong. She was an ER nurse. She is so happy and so cheerful though Quentin whispers to me that she is very strict
Quentin’s late dad who was the doctor who helped people for free He is known as the Marlboro man because he smokes Marlboro 🙂 A cardiologist that smokes a lot
Quentin lives in the States now so he visits her every year
Yummy and healthy breakfast at Tita Marlyn’s.
Quentin @docqviterbo told us that his mom was very strict they could not eat “fat”/“taba” ? when they were kids. Until now she is still health conscious. Accdg to Vanessa her egg has to have malunggay 
and the tocino is homemade without preservatives and its so yummy!!
We also had fresh giant guyabano 
and the chinese sausage from @snr_official – yum #h2hcapiz #h2hbreakfast

The AQUAZZURA Spring/Summer 2018 collection draws its inspiration from a mix of influences including India and the iconic decade of the ‘90s.
The most impactful inspirations come from a trip to Rajasthan that Edgardo Osorio – creative director and founder of AQUAZZURA – did over the New Year, where he fell in love with the precious embroideries, the textures and the vivid colors of the Country’s traditional Saris. The vibrant shades, with a focus on pink and yellow and featuring across various styles, are reminiscent of the unique street festivals, while the Jaipur Pumps and Sandals are enriched with small embroidered mirrors, so apparent in the Indian style.
The collection also features Indian jewelry-inspired elements with precious crystals applications, such as the Rendez Vous styles inspired by the famous Indian gold bangles, and the Gem Palace Mule and Sandal, inspired by the Maharanis of Rajasthan.
The native flowers of the Indian palace gardens Edgardo visited inspired floral patterns and have been re-interpreted through linen fabrics with suede in the Lily of The Valley Sandal, while delicate silk is used in the hand-woven pom-poms of the Lotus Blossom Mule and Sandal 105.
The fashionable decade of the ‘90s also strongly influenced Osorio’s aesthetic for his SS18 collection. With their minimalism, they are represented in shoes featuring pastel shades and kitten heels, sling backs and mules, and in metallic details and the white colorway.

So happy to meet this couple – Calbito and Hya Viterbo. Calbito is the first cousin of Quentin @docqviterbo and they are based in Capiz. They have acquired a lot of the family’s properties totalling around 900 hectares and are developing it. 
We are staying in their hotel @hotel_veronica named after Haya’s mom.
I noticed that in Capiz they like naming their businesses after their names or their family’s name They have restaurants, convention centers and soon to open a call center. The rest of the land is work in progress in a very beautiful area in Capiz. They are obviously very enterprising-contact them if you want to invest in Capiz #h2hpeople #h2hcapiz
