Hi! I'm Nizza Gueco, I am a licensed architect living in the Philippines, but my passion lies in writing. I love writing, I write digitally and I have been a freelance writer since 2012. Aside from that I am also addicted to planners and pens, or just about anything I can write by hand with. Here's a peek at one of my planners. (yes, multiple, I'm addicted! Shhh!)
Anyway, so where do I start? I honestly don't know, so I guess I'll just give a happy shout out to my best friend from college who introduced me to this platform. (How do I tag? LOL! Sorry!) .
To be totally honest, I don't know what to expect from this platform, I am a total newbie in the cryptocurrency field, and I don't really like jumping into bandwagons. So needless to say, the possible earnings are not really my goal, I heard this is a fun community to be a part of, and I really look forward to it.
Going back to my introduction, I still don't know where to start, so let me start with my title. Yes, I am a WAHM, a Work-At-Home-Mom, but given the things that I normally explore, I gave it a new meaning.
W - Writer
I earn a living by writing. Yes, that's possible. Freelancing boomed here in the Philippines last 2017, good thing I was able to start in 2012. I was able to build my foundation even before the influx of people wanting to try came.
Now I dedicate my extra time to helping weed out those "who just want to try and is after quick money" from those who are genuinely interested in working at home and establishing a career the right way. I created a Filipino Group on Facebook that serves as a support system for my cause.
You can check out my regularly updated blog post guide for the members of my group here:

A - Architect
As I have mentioned above, I am an architect. I graduated from UST last 2009 and I took the board exam last 2011. I started my career in the Construction field until I eventually went up to the Retail industry.
I worked for one of the most reputable Retail Company in the Philippines. But I got tired of the politics inside the work environment. It got so toxic that I chose to jump into something that I wasn't sure of, instead of staying. That's how I became a freelancer.
H - Hobbyist
I am passionate about a lot of things. For one, I am an avid gamer. I have two older brothers and as early as I can remember, I was playing with Matchboxes, G.I. Joes, TMNT figures, guns, cars, and just about anything that my brothers play.
Of course, consoles are not exempted. From a Family Computer, to SEGA, to Gameboys, to SNES, to PlayStation and all the consoles that my brothers got addicted to, I went in with them.
Up until now I still love games, I mostly play DotA 2 on my PC and Arena of Valor on my mobile. My partner and I use games to chill and to relax, no matter what happens, we always have to have one game before the day ends.
My other hobbies will probably be introduced in my next posts. :)
M - Mother
Lastly, I'm a mom to a beautiful baby girl who will turn 5 in October. Her name is Aljanna Silver, her nickname is Asti. Together with her dad, we face everyday life together since her dad also works at home, and she is homeschooled.
Here's a photo of our family, this was taken a way back since I can't find a more recent one, but we pretty much look like that still.
I'll tell you more about our family in my next posts.
What to expect
I can't really guarantee you that my posts will have a certain focus. I have a lot of things going on in my life that I enjoy right now, and I would love to share them all to you.
So I guess I'll just share with you bits and pieces of my life.
Thanks for reading and I'm looking forward to interacting with all of you. <3
