About NEW

Hello, my name is Christine.  hundredpoundfoodie

Got travel plans? Proceed to this page.

I’m a creative writer specializing in food & dining, advertising & marketing* and public speeches, a freelance copy editor, organizer of culinary tours of my hometown Pampanga, customer service/perception evaluator, trained cook, voice talent, art/photography enthusiast, frustrated guitarist, closet singer/dancing queen, proud Capampangan, a happy Filipino.

Thank you for visiting the Philippines through my website. With this space, I hope to give the world a glimpse of my country’s dynamic foodscape and our vibrant eating culture, as well as offer some global Pinoy perspective on foreign cuisines ;)

Another driving force behind this website and why I do the things I do is this :)

7 years eating for work and 3 years after this website, I am 110 pounds. Is my blog title now officially a lie? But as someone once said, no matter how heavy I’d get, I will always be me.
