Hey there! I'm Venus, a Libra who dances through life with a sense of balance and a touch of charm. Born in September, I've journeyed through life as a single mom to an incredible 18-year-old boy who keeps me on my toes and fills my heart with joy.

Professionally, I wear many hats. By day, I’m a freelance Executive Assistant & Administrative Support, and sometimes I moonlight as a Social Media Manager, Video Editor, Website & Graphic Designer. If there's a project that needs a creative touch or meticulous organization, I'm your go-to gal.

When I'm not juggling tasks, you can find me lost in the melodies of my favorite tunes or curled up with a romantic comedy—Hallmark movies are my guilty pleasure. I’m also an avid reader, devouring romantic novels and self-help books that inspire and uplift. Coffee shops are my second home, where I hang out with my tribe of fellow freelancers, sipping lattes and sharing ideas.

I have a rich history with CDOBloggers, a local organization that sparked my passion for blogging and public speaking. I’ve helped organize a series of CDOBloggers Blogging 101 Workshops and the Mindanao Blogger Summit 3, and I’ve had the honor of speaking at events on topics like "Blogging 101," "How to Use Social Media for Blog Promotions," and "Content Development in Blogging."

This blog is my little corner of the internet where I share my  personal thoughts, reflections, and the occasional soap opera of my life (because let's face it, life can be quite the melodrama, right? 😅). From my adventures and escapades to the latest and greatest finds in the world of online and offline shopping, you’ll find a bit of everything here. Expect candid product reviews, mouthwatering food escapades, and a dash of wanderlust as I share my travel tales. Plus, I'll spill the beans on my skincare secrets and showcase my ever-evolving personal style. 

So grab a cup of coffee, stay a while, and let's embark on this journey together!

If you're ready for a rollercoaster ride of emotions, laughs, and maybe a few tears, fasten your seatbelts and join me on this wild journey at Venussmileygal.com. 🚀💖 Let's turn every day into a page-turner you won't want to put down! 💃🌍
