December 2017 is indeed a blessed month for me. Full of parties and get together with family members and friends. And one of the events that I enjoyed most last year is the night of fun, surprises and sharing during the annual Get Together party of the Filipino Bloggers Network (FBN), one of the most active bloggers group in the country, last December 12 at Salu Restaurant in Quezon City.
With almost 2,000 members across the country, FBN continues to expand as it provides a venue for Pinoy bloggers to interact with other members through discussions and posting opportunities from different brands and PR partners as moderated by co-admins Divine Reyes and Richard Mamuyac. MetroBuzz Bloggers, led by its admin Lariza Garcia, even made the event more fun-filled and exciting in its fifth year.

This year, I volunteered to be one of the main host of the event and it was indeed challenging but awesome to go beyond my comfort zone and start interact with my fellow bloggers and PR friends throughout the event.
Salu, fast becoming a popular Filipino restaurant, serve as the venue where FBN members took the opportunity to share great food and drinks, games, and of course, stories and experiences among fellow online writers and influencers. The few hours of fun-filled event were not enough thus the next get-together of the group promises to be bigger and better.
Another co-main sponsor is SvelT’i, a skin clinic that provides advanced health and beauty services using state of the art technology.
This yearly gathering is an opportunity to make new friends and catch up with old pals they have not seen for a while. Representatives of different PR groups and brands also graced the event to personally thank members of the online community who have supported them in the past years.
Here are the sponsors and partners who made this year’s event possible:
