As the Best Cebu Blogs Awards (BCBA) draws closer, I reflect on what it means to be part of this incredible event and community. Being nominated was a thrill and making it into the Top 3 finalists for the Best Cebu Personal Blog feels like a great honor and validation of my journey as a content creator. This year’s nomination holds a special significance as it reminds me of all the moments that have shaped “Che Goes On” and my unwavering commitment to keep going, no matter what challenges come my way.
From NOMINEE to FINALIST
This recognition feels particularly meaningful. When I won last year, it was a beautiful surprise that validated my journey and strengthened my resolve to keep sharing my story. I didn’t anticipate that my blog would make it to the final list again this year – especially with so many talented bloggers across Cebu.
Knowing that “Che Goes On’ resonates with others and brings value to the Cebu blogging community inspires me to continue, no matter how life bends or challenges me. This nomination isn’t just a recognition of my blog but a testament to everyone who has been part of my journey, cheering me on, even on days when I felt unsure.
BEST CEBU BLOGS AWARDS: Celebrating the Heart of Cebu’s Digital Creators
The Best Cebu Blogs Awards is a celebration of Cebu’s vibrant blogging community. For over a decade, the BCBA has honored bloggers who use their platforms to make a positive impact, tell important stories, and showcase the beauty and richness of Cebu. It’s more than just an awards night – it’s a gathering that unites bloggers from diverse niches, creating an inspiring environment where we can connect, celebrate, and support one another.
BCBA is not just about recognizing individual achievements; it’s about fostering a sense of community among bloggers who are based in Cebu. This recognition is a reminder that our voices matter and that together, we create a mosaic of Cebu’s stories, aspirations, and culture. Every blog post, every shared experience, and every voice contributes to making Cebu’s story a beautiful, ongoing narrative that we can all be proud of.
This year’s awards would not be possible without the support of our incredible sponsors, whose commitment to Cebu’s blogging community makes BCBA a truly exceptional event. Their generosity and belief in the power of Cebuano voices allow bloggers like me to celebrate our craft, reflect on our journeys, and strive for even greater heights.
