As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

A Long Saturday Stroll Out of Town

This was brought to my attention the other day -- a mini mart here in Eastwood that 
sells ONLY Korean food items.  Today I checked it out.
I think there are more Korean foods that I crave compared to Canadian ones and today I picked 
up a few of my favourite Korean snackies, one of which is a great love of mine... BANANA MILK!!!
Unlike these local guys travelling with Mother Nature's natural air con (the wind),
I sat at the back of a packed shuttle bus as I headed out of town. 
It was an hour and a half commute to my destination so I 
munched on dried mangos and amused myself.
 And then I arrived.
 The point of the trip wasn't to go to the casino but we did take a stroll through it.
I'm an official member at two different Filipino places now -- Elorde Boxing Club and Resort World Manila Casino.  Great, like I'll ever use this card.  It gets me free shuttle bus service though.
