About Raisie...

Zamboanguena, Filipina.

I write for a living. And I love to see new places. 

So early on, I experienced boat rides, landed on white sand islands, flew miles to join my family and discovered my own backyard from East to West. I love documenting my experiences and thoughts on travel journals, writing down my precious moments, especially my travels with people I love. In a group of family traveling, I'm the snap-happy person. 

This comes as no surprise that I'm the one printing photos and designing pages on my traveler's notebook, and that I'm motivated by beautiful stationery and related paper products. In the corporate world, I still enjoy decorating my planner pages in cutesy themes. 

As for gears, you can check out my reviews on bags, gear and other travel essentials as well as unboxing of stationery products that I receive. 

Writing Experience

Since grade school, I have been distributing handwritten letters to my classmates on their birthdays. I have been writing features since college as part of my contribution to the official university publication and the college newsletter. I was also the literary folio's Editor during my junior year. I've practiced the skill of spotting errors on my peer's outputs and haven't shaken the habit after being out of school for some years now, I admit.

My training started in high school when I used to participate in writing competitions (where I got to travel, meet new people, and had the excuse of missing classes on account of being a school representative).

After school, I have worked as a scriptwriter for television and associate editor for a local news publication under a tri-media firm. I've also gained experience as a technical writer for an economic zone. I am currently an Executive Assistant for a local government office managing social media posts, writing stories and producing materials for promotional content. 

And my dream job? I'd like to be a travel writer exploring different corners of the world someday.
