Even though I'm a MyProperty.ph employee, there are times when we share manpower with Lamudi. Today, I was tapped to help Pia with their event for bloggers in partnership with Regus, a worldwide company that's providing people with world-class office facilities for rent. They have numerous branches across the country, and most of them are located in business district centers and prime areas.
When I learned that I'd be joining their tour for the day, I got excited but got worried as well because my attire for the day was just my usual getup and I don't think it was suited for what I was about to do and go. They only told me on this morning, when I was already in the office. I tried wearing a blazer, but people told me it doesn't suit my whole outfit. So I just had to grit my teeth and go on for the day.
Our first stop was at the Enterprise Building with the Regus branch on the 28th floor. We were led to a meeting room, where the bloggers could get to meet the people behind Regus and Lamudi. My officemates set-up the meeting room, while I took care of the registration area outside.
The Enterprise branch takes up the whole floor. It has a very pleasant ambiance, with huge windows open, letting the natural light in.

I was really hyped up for the afternoon. Imagine the spurtof my excitement when the nostalgia of going on a fieldtrip hit me. ^_^
 |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah! Field trip time~! :) |
Our second stop was at the 27th floor of the BPI Center. The Regus branch seemed like a spa, with their earthy elements, design, and lighting.

The third and last stop was at 8 Rockwell at the Rockwell Complex. It is quite a new building and they have a strict access, providing a tightly secured office. One would need a floor keycard, an access card that can only give you access to your office's floor.

The event ended around 6PM. I had a lot of fun and it turned out my attire didn't matter. Haha. Some of the bloggers wore casual clothes as well so I was able to blend-in. It was a lot of fun touring around the city despite the weather, and the guests were fun to be with.
To be honest, I envied those who won memberships to Regus. I think it would be great to be able to work in a place as convenient and peaceful as Regus, with everything you need just a few steps away. I'm sure they'd be able to use it wherever, as Regus has lots of branches not only nationwide, but also worldwide...and counting.
