Kalahati na ng taon pero lalaboy pa din po tayo 😊 “Travel calms my mind, frees my soul, and reminds me that the world is wide—and so is my heart.”- iSTarriay23

✈️🌿 I Travel to Feel Alive.

There’s something about traveling that speaks to my soul. Whether it’s the breeze from the mountains, the scent of a new city, or the sound of waves crashing by the shore—travel refreshes me, grounds me, and sets me free.

It’s not just about going places—it’s about pausing, breathing, and finding peace away from the noise. Every journey reminds me who I am, and who I’m becoming.

I travel not to escape life, but to reconnect with it. 🌍💛

"Filipino food with a twist, but never without heart—KIAPO is where tradition meets creativity on every plate."- iSTariray23 🇵🇭✨ Dinner Celebration at KIAPO – Okada Manila

We had the most heartwarming dinner celebration at KIAPO, a modern Filipino culinary gem located inside the luxurious Okada Hotel. 🇵🇭🍽️

From the moment you step inside, the ambiance speaks elegance and warmth—stylish interiors, cozy lighting, and a welcoming vibe that’s perfect for intimate family dinners, small celebrations, or simply catching up with loved ones. 🥂

What makes KIAPO truly stand out? It’s Filipino comfort food served with a modern twist—familiar flavors you grew up with, beautifully elevated in presentation but still incredibly delicious and comforting to the taste buds. 😋🔥

Think crispy pata, sinigang, kare-kare, adobo, and more—just the way you love them, with a touch of creative flair. Best part? 💯 It’s surprisingly affordable! You get luxury-level ambiance and flavor without breaking the bank.

KIAPO is definitely a place we’d come back to—where food, atmosphere, and Filipino pride come together beautifully.

Got a Jollibee from my daughter nakakatuwa sa pagiging thoughtful si Ate Jedi. She brought this for me, from her allowance that she saved.

Nagulat ako kase me chicken fillet na din pala si Jollibee pero nalungkot ako nung binuksan ko na😔 4pcs lang yung chicken strips nya sana kahit 6pcs man lang ha ha ha or sana kahit hindi na lang nila hiniwa hiwa yung chicken fillet like sa McDo. Yuna lang, tara kain po tayo 😊

I just watched the Korean film “A Single Rider”, and my heart is still heavy with its quiet sorrow. There’s a profound sadness in seeing the people you love moving on without you—living a life that feels out of reach. Yet the film reminds me that holding onto hate or anger only traps us in pain. True healing comes when we choose forgiveness and acceptance, allowing us to let go of what was and find the courage to move forward. 🌅💔🙏 See my full movie review in my blog- A Single Rider (Korean Movie 2017) ~ iStar-Tariray

🔍 A Lesson in Professionalism and Respect in Recruitment

Recently, I applied for a Team Lead Supervisor position that was actively posted. To my surprise, I was contacted by a recruiter offering a Quality Analyst role instead—one I hadn't applied for. While I have experience in that field, the lack of transparency was concerning.

What stood out:

Lack of Communication: If the original position was no longer available, a direct notification would have been appreciated.

Assumptions: Offering a different role without context can be perceived as dismissive of the applicant's intentions.

Respect for Time: As professionals, it's essential to value each other's time and efforts.

I declined the onsite interview, not out of disrespect, but to maintain clarity in my career direction.

This experience underscores the importance of clear communication, respect, and professionalism in the recruitment process. Let's strive for transparency and mutual respect in all professional interactions.
