Martine de Luna

Martine was an expat kid in her growing up years, spending her childhood and adolescence in Hong Kong and Singapore. Thanks to the British international school system, Martine developed a love for writing at a young age, and has been writing for publications since she was 15, when she apprenticed at a local magazine publications company. Martine pursued Journalism and Creative Writing studies via the distance education program of the London School of Journalism and the International Correspondence School. She ended up becoming a preschool assistant teacher, and eventually conceptualized a tutorial program, which she ran for seven years before getting married and having a kid. Today, Martine is a work-at-home Mom and passionate blogger. Her blog, Make it Blissful, (formerly Dainty Mom) won for Best Parenting and Home Blog for the 2011 Philippine Blog Awards. Make it Blissful today is a space on the Web that is all about finding the meaningful moments in life, work and creativity. It’s a place where by women, for women who want to live, work and create with intention. Through its content features on home & living, blogging, inspiration, creativity and lifelong learning, Make it Blissful explores the reality that life isn’t perfect, beautiful or ideal, but that we can make things work, make it blissful and find those reasons to be grateful.
