  1. Interesting classes! I'm fascinated to photography since I started blogging. I thought I should invest in a quality camera Looking forward to the reviews.

    On a different note, there is also a cooking class offered in the Korean Cultural Center in the Philippines in BGC for an affordable fee per session.

    It always feels good to reinvent once in a while. :)

    1. Photography is addicting isn't it? Especially if you have a beautiful beam of natural light embracing your shot. I'll focus on food shots, landscape and artsy shots might compel me to buy an expensive camera!

      Thanks for letting me know about the classes! I'm about to post a review of Bornga, keep in touch Jayson!
