Step Forward + Have Fun with Mabuhay Germany

Last August 23, I was invited to a German Night Out at the Distillery located at Bonifacio Global City to experience a night of German hospitality.  The dinner was organized by Mabuhay Germany Committee of the German-Philippine chamber of Commerce and Industry, Inc. (PPCCI). It was a night to experience German beers and cuisine.

After the dinner and the rounds of beer, I enjoyed playing table soccer with fellow lady guests from the German embassy.   We left off in 1 – 1 tie.  It was already late so we agreed to continue the finals at the Mabuhay Germany event.

I look forward to attending and covering the Mabuhay Germany event on Oct. 12-14 at the Bonifacio High Street and settle who is the champion of the Table Soccer match while having rounds of German beer.

Danke.  Auf Wiedersehen.  (Thank you.  Goodbye.)
