An Up close and personal talk with Mayor Hubbert Dolor about PG




Hey guys! I'm back with Part 2 of my Puerto Galera adventures! 

If you would like to see part 1 just click here. 


One of the perks social media bloggers have is to meet and talk to prominent people in the society. 

And this person is by far the first Mayor I've met that has a very calm and approachable demeanor, and I am talking about Mayor Hubbert A. Dolor, MD. 

A doctor by profession but a public servant by passion, he is on his third term being Mayor. He was once a Seminarian but has a very transparent personality which is great to see for a public servant. 

He discussed to us a number of topics relating about Puerto Galera and Mindoro Oriental in particular. From culinary hotspots to the hidden gems and also future events I can see how hopeful and ambitious he is in making Puerto Galera a prime destination for the world. 

Mayor Dolor is also proud to announce that Puerto Galera or PG was chosen to host the 11th world congress that will take part this year. PG is picked as one because of it has one of the most beautiful bays in the world. The event will be graced by diplomatic representatives from 38 nations who also owns beautiful bays just like here in the Philippines. 

I actually asked what is the biggest percentage of visitors PG gets annually and he says that majority of its current visitors are Koreans, Russians, and other races. 

One of the things Mayor Dolor highlighted to us is that although they are surrounded by the body of water, major fishing using nets and big fishing vessels are not allowed to be done to protect the coral reefs and the sea creatures in abundance for snorkeling and diving. He also recommended to us some destinations we need to check out before we explore the island - but that would be for part 3 of the adventure!  

Unfortunately, our Q and A came to an end but before we shake hands and had our pictures taken, he left us with some words of wisdom which are about the 3 kinds of people we should never forget:

1. People who remain with you during your most difficult times
2.  People who will leave you during your most difficult  times
3. People who rather put you down  during your most difficult times


I really appreciate the small time that were allotted to us in interviewing Mayor Hubbert Dolor. He is really like a father to all of his constituents because he deeply cares for the welfare of everyone.

My addictions: My cute yet ferocious dog named John

Shocking isn't it? haha!  Let me introduce to you my dog named John. Believe it or not he had a brother named Lloyd... get it John and Lloyd. Blame my mom for their names LOL But besides from that he is one peculiar kind of dog. He has a mannerism to act adorable one minute but turn annoying after another.  He has been with us for like 5 years or longer. He is a mix of Labrador and Pitbull.  I took that photo a couple of days ago when I was in a trigger happy mode. I took pictures of my niece and my nephew, our newly renovated house and of course my pets. I was actually asking him to look at me and when he did he suddenly yawn. And that is how I had that shot.  He is actually a really nice dog, he is a bit territorial but most dogs are like that. He actually likes my Labrador Retriever named Georgia. I'll let you meet Georgia next time. ^_^ Much Love!  Alice

Product Review: iColor Hair Dye Shampoo

Image
Hello lovelies!  Since the start of the year I told myself I will change my looks more and test things since I am not getting any younger so experimenting would definitely be on top of my list.  With that I've actually started with my hair. I have already gone blonde although that was a little hard to maintain since I remember being told to go back after a number of weeks to have my roots done but never seem to do it because  1. The salon I got it done was quite far from my place.  2. Its still expensive 3. It would damage my hair tremendously I still have qualms about getting my hair colored again professionally so I asked my mom if its much better if I color it myself - she said yes but gave me the low down on the things I have to do...remembering all those information was a toughie but I was able to get a simpler solution with it - this hair dye shampoo~  My mom discovered this actually and asked me to try it on my hair since she knows I need to cove
