Bangkok, Thailand was always on our list when we would travel overseas. (nung malaya pa tayong lumipad kung saan saan!) We just love the place, food, shopping and the people! (lalo na pag pogi!) That’s why I immediately said yes to the invitation of a popular telecommunications company to host its virtual event featuring Thai superstars Gulf Kanawut, Nonkul Chanon and Mario Maurer. (hindi ako tumatanggi sa mga boys at sa talent fee!)
It happened last Tuesday via Facebook live. I was at a studio in Manila while the boys were at their respective locations in Thailand. (feeling international ako!) I got so excited when I first saw them on the monitor. They really exude that celebrity image. No wonder, girls from different parts of the world (at yung mga pagirl) are dreaming about these boys. (ang popogi nyo bro!)
