About

Team Sweetie consists of Gian and Sheila, a loving boyfriend-and-girlfriend team of adventure junkies who are eternally thirsty for the next adrenaline rush.

During weekdays, Gian works as a marketing manager and content specialist for PhotoUp, a company that specializes in real estate photo editing. Although writing is one of his passions (he fantasizes writing his own novel someday), he hopes to someday save enough money to start a few businesses such as bed-and-breakfast, adventure tour operation, and peasant restaurant that will readily cater to fellow adventurers. When weekdays and holidays arrive, Gian’s personality changes as he transforms into a rabid, half-mad, frothy mouthed adventurer who wants nothing more than the feeling of staring injury and death at the face. Gian is prone to injuries, yet he proudly reveals his scars as trademarks of his passion for the wicked adventures.

Weeknights find Sheila working as a virtual assistant. Sweet, simple, and motherly, no one, at first glance, would believe that on weekends, she becomes a die-hard fanatic of mountaineering, rock climbing, wall climbing, caving, and a host of other adventure sports. Sheila hopes to travel around the world in search for the ultimate adrenaline lust. Preparing mouthwatering meals from the simplest of ingredients is her forte; when she’s up in the mountains, expect to enjoy a sumptuous feast.

  1. I finally found the one…someone who complements me. We are a team. We don’t exist for the sake of existence but our presence is a gift. Together, we thrive to make a better version of ourselves. Having a soulmate who adores you and truly loves you for who you were, for what you are and for what you will become makes life sweeter and more meaningful. Thanks, sweetie! You are my life and my love. I love you. 🙂

  2. Thank you, sweetie! I’m very honored to have you as my adventure partner. Since you came into my life, I’ve become happier and more determined. Yes, you are my soulmate. I love you very much.

    Thanks for stopping by our blog

  9. Living the life I never had the guts to take on – well done guys; enjoy every moment 🙂

    • Hi Uncle Spike,

      Thank you for the compliment sir and welcome to Adrenaline Romance.

      It’s never too late to start adventuring and exploring the world. The experience is definitely life-changing. Sheila and I started this passion relatively recently, and we’re already in our mid to late thirties. Hehehe!

      If you ever come and visit Cebu, Philippines, give us a shout-out so we can meet you. 🙂

      • I did many crazy things in my teens and early 20’s so have plenty of memories 🙂

        We still travel as/when money allows and love everything that life throws at us. As for the Philippines, you never know, one day if we win the lottery 😀

        Have a great weekend.

        UNCLE SPIKE

  11. I love that you are Team Sweetie. My blog is With Husband In Tow and the husband is on Twitter is @thehusbandintow, but I don’t think he would go for Team Sweetie! Adorable.

  12. Na inspire naman ako sa team nyo! A couple like you is hard to find… Ingat palagi sa mga adventures nyo!

  13. You guys are really cute! Thanks for an informative post about Honda Bay.

    • Hi David,

      Thank you for taking time to visit our blog. And thank you for the compliment!

      We’re glad that our post about Honda Bay was helpful to you. Are you planning to visit Honda Bay soon?

  14. Hi guys! Since you’re my favorite adventurous duo, I personally like to extend an invite for you to join a series I’m currently doing. I’m featuring best travel moment of a traveler/s. If you’re interested here’s the link http://travelmoments.net/category/moments-2/best-travel-moment/ Hope to see a place in the Philippines featured too! 🙂

  15. Fascinating blog, guys! Thanks for connecting with us on Twitter! Keep up the great work and stay safe!

  16. A little envious…the boyfie and I have been travelling and climbing together too but blogging is that one thing we can’t do together. 😦 I’ve tried countless of times to push him to blog but no luck. Oh well, I’m glad to have found a pair who did such. 🙂 I’m looking forward to read more of your adventures. 🙂

    • Hello, Kring!

      It’s a must that we do everything together. hehe. Or else, there would be no Team Sweetie.

      We travel and engage in adventures together. When it comes to blogging, we conceptualize, pick out the photos, take note of travel details, etc. together. But it’s Gian who does the hardest part, writing posts in this blog, and I do the easiest part, editing. 😉

  17. kainggit..hehe…

  18. Team Sweetie! Cool!! Very nice blog! 🙂

  19. Awesome team you both! Looking forward to read more of your posts!!

  20. Hi, I was recently been nominated for a pass-it-forward style Blogging Recognition Award, and I have nominated your blog in response. There is no pressure to follow up on it – I just thought I’d share my enjoyment of your blog with others. You can find the link to my nominations here: http://travelosio.com/2015/08/03/travelosio-receives-another-recognition/ or the original award here: http://eveofnight.blogspot.com.au/2014/10/lets-celebrate-whos-up-for-award.html.
