Congratulations and Love to Elburg Ship Management Philippines!

No words can truly express my admiration for Ms. Procerfina Terrei, the lovely Chairman of the Board of one of the country's top ship manning conglomerates - Elburg Philippines. She also heads the International Maritime Academy, and also Augustea Ship Manning Philippines as she guides Augustea's President (her beautiful daughter and truly a wonderful friend), Grace Labrusca.

Here she is, looking all young, but a proud grandma, as she dotes on the kids of her nieces and nephews...

I was also very glad to meet the legendary Mr. Jimmy Santos - one of the most famous comedians in the country. Who needs Alden Richards when you have this funny, talented and humble celebrity in your party who truly livened up the already exciting night! He and the Chairman of Elburg, Ms. Procerfina Terrei are childhood friends... 

And so now, we fast forward to the gist of this post: The 8th Annual Crew Conference of Elburg Ship Management Philippines held at the Blue Leaf Pilipinas, City of Dreams Manila. For this very special occasion, I tried to go for some High Seas Fashion: Check out my "Pirate-slash-Corporate" look below. Certainly, this photo below is all about what Elburg Philippines is about: ONE CREW, ONE HORIZON... 

 Ahoy Mates! My Pirate Queen pose as I stand beside one of the hard-working and promising young cadets of Elburg Ship Management Philippines that day... 

 Through this conference, we became abreast with the latest trends in the Maritime Industry, project implementation status and of course worldwide industry news straight from the distinguished Elburg Group principals... 

I am still elated over the honor of emceeing for this year's Elburg Ship Management Philippines Crew Conference, on its 8th year, and my 2nd time to emcee for them. I learned so much from this event too!

Now spot me if you can in this sea of happy seafarers, maritime experts and our other distinguished guests... a group photo before the conference closes and we head on to the exciting evening gala... 

We all enjoyed a (naughty) gala party after, where I seriously got drunk after 2 shots (of I don't even know what)! Forgive the bad lighting but do know that we all had so much fun! Kisses to Grace, Richelle, Juliet, Madame Procy, and the rest of the wonderful Terrei family and the Elburg group!

Photos below are all thanks to our dearest Anj from Creative Impact Inc. They are a superb events and creatives company! To learn more about them, click this link and visit their website at www.creativeimpactinc.com

And lastly, that night I was able to receive a very special pendant from Lowanna Philippines - thanks so much, Liza, for this beautiful cross pendant; still shopping for the chain that will match this twinkly pendant perfectly so for now this charm is kept in a very special place in my jewellery collection and in my heart!

Smooth sailing at Augustea Philippines' Second Annual Crew Conference

Congratulations to Augustea Ship Manning Philippines for a Successful second Crew Conference!

Truly an honour to be the master of ceremonies for the 2nd annual crew conference of Augustea Ship Manning Philippines, Inc. and being their emcee last year for their first-ever conference makes my heart grow with gratitude! 

The most heartfelt thanks go to the company's wise and beautiful president and now one of my good friends and a lady I find so beautiful inside and out, Ms. Grace Labrusca Terrei and to the rest of the wonderful Terrei family and staff, for trusting me to be master of ceremony for the second consecutive year! I had so much fun and learned a lot from you all.

This photo above is all thanks to Anj Pantaleon of Creative Impact. Like the Official Facebook Page of CreativeImpact Inc. today! Wow, where do I even begin? There were so many highlights for that day, and everything was simply perfect! I was pleasurable to note that just like Elburg Philippines, also managed by the same exceptional Terrei family, Augustea Ship Manning Philippines also brings the same quality of crew management. Indeed, our modern-day heroes, our Seafarers, or should I say Seafare-Heroes are in the best hands with Augustea. 

Pre-event Pretty. Before the event I had to pose with some of my bosses for that day. Flanked by the eloquent and charming Juliet Terrei, Director of Augustea and of course the beautiful President, Grace.

This conference was the venue to update the crew and staff on latest trends about the ever-changing and prevailing Maritime industry, to share the company status, efforts to give service to seafarers, and most importantly - to hear the feedback of our modern-day heroes on how Augustea can serve them and their families better. Serving them better meant giving their kids scholarships too... here was one of the blessed recipients that night, during our ball! 

Yup, Augustea knows how to have fun too for right after the fruitful conference, we had a fun ball! Music, dancing, great food and drinks were served for everyone to enjoy and celebrate this momentous day! To learn more about them, please visit The Official Website of Augustea Ship Manning Philippines.
