Hello, I’m Randy Batiquin — a Filipino blogger, adventurer, and web developer with a deep passion for sharing the stories that shape our lives. I created Ebosya.com as a space where readers can explore meaningful conversations on Filipino Lifestyle, Money & Career, and Travel & Leisure. Writing for me isn’t just a pastime — it’s my way of preserving experiences, asking questions that matter, and celebrating the richness of being Filipino.

My journey as a storyteller has taken me across almost every region of the Philippines. I’ve walked the bustling streets of Manila where modern life meets history, found calm in the mountains of Bukidnon, spoken with fishermen along the coasts of Zamboanga, witnessed age-old traditions in Mindanao, and admired the endless rice fields of Luzon. These travels are not just adventures, but encounters with real people whose resilience and stories inspire the features I write.

Beyond blogging, I’ve spent more than 15 years writing — from countless featured articles to poems and songs published on various platforms. Poetry has taught me rhythm and brevity, while songwriting sharpened my instinct for storytelling. Each piece — whether an article, poem, or melody — is an attempt to connect with readers who share the same curiosity about life and culture.

When I’m not writing or coding, I live a life fueled by curiosity and play. I enjoy cooking, gaming, tinkering with tech, climbing mountains, and planning road trips that take me to new places and perspectives. As a web developer, I love turning ideas into digital tools, blending creativity and technology in ways that bring fresh perspectives to my blog.

At the heart of it all, my goal is simple: to share stories that matter. Some highlight the struggles and triumphs of Filipino families, others offer practical guides for modern living, while many celebrate the adventures waiting just outside our doorsteps. My hope is that readers leave Ebosya.com with something valuable — new knowledge, a fresh perspective, or simply the comfort of knowing that their experiences are shared.

For me, Ebosya.com is more than a blog — it’s a growing community where truth, curiosity, and creativity come together. And as I continue to travel, write, and create, I invite you to join me on this journey of exploring the stories that define who we are as Filipinos.
