Attending my First Manila Pen Show in the Philippines

This is what my heart needed this weekend, a little break from reality even for just a couple of hours because the truth is, creating has been the last thing on my mind these last few weeks. So this little trip to @manilapenshow was like a big hug to my inner child. I’m so glad that I pushed, and allowed myself to go. I’m also very happy to support local artists and brands here in my home country. I absolutely love my handmade journals from @telapapel My beautiful leather cover made with love in MARIKINA by @philipelleleather and lastly, I still can’t belive that I was the LUCKY winner of the @kaweco.germany Big Brother Pen Raffle from @scribe.ph 🥹🙏🏽🎉 So crazy! My heart is full. Thank you to all the amazing team and organizers of @manilapenshow Hopefully next year, I can host a workshop too. That would be so amazing!!!! #pens #stationery
