When I heard that a co-working space was opening in the surf town of San Juan, La Union; I couldn’t help but be thrilled! For someone like me who loves to catch waves, but also has deadlines to catch; this place is a godsend because most of the time, cafe customers do not appreciate seeing customers spending an hour or two on their laptops.
Take right now, for example. I’m currently writing this article at a cafe and I’ve been met with many uncomfortable stares. I get them. However, although I have a workstation at home, working a few steps away from my bed always ends in very long naps sometimes. Can you relate? Okay, enough with my rants as a freelancer! Let’s go back to how awesome this co-working space in La Union is.

We recently met the people behind the newest co-working space in La Union: Renz-Bhil Quiros, 24, Studio 22’s founder, Architect Kenneth Cariaga, Engineer Kevin Abad, both 25, and Vergel M. Ducusin, also, 25, the community manager of Studio 22. It’s always amazing to hear success stories from young people who are turning their dreams into a reality and who are helping each other move up. Without a doubt, Studio 22 is not just a place to “co-work”, but also a place to “co-inspire.”
