                                  There is more to
                             power couple Alodia
                              Gosiengfiao and Wil
                          Dasovich than what their
                          online presence reveals

                            Alodia Gosiengfiao and Wil
                            Dasovich could be considered
                            as the YouTube loveteam of
                            the country. With each of
                            them boasting a following of
                            millions on their respective
                            YouTube channels, together,
                            the two form a power couple
                            whose territory ranges from
                            the gaming world to the
                            domain of vlogs.
                               “We try to arrange contracts
                            for jobs so that we can get
                            to work together,” Wil reveals.
                            “She’s actually my manager. She
                            knows my rates and she gives
                            me work,” he adds half-jokingly.
                               There’s obvious respect
                            between      them    regarding
                            how they have built their
                            respective bases and made
                            their names. Before meeting
                            for the first time en route to
                            the Influence Asia Awards in
                            2017, Alodia had seen one of
                            Wil’s videos—not on YouTube
                            but on Facebook—and found
                            it cute how he’d speak in
                            Filipino. “Then I met him and
                            saw how much fun he is in
                            real life. But while people
                            would think it’s all fun and
                            games with him, seeing him
                            work made me realize how
                            much he strategizes these
                            things. He plans everything
                            because he understands
                            which things will work.”
                               On his part, Wil had always
                            found Alodia cute, and meeting
                            her just compounded that first
                            impression: “I like how she’s
                            really simple, and girly on
                            the outside, but when talking
                            business, she’s savage.

                            Non-stop work
                            As pros in what they do,
                            the   couple   understands
                            the importance of planning

How to protect your peepers
 when you spend hours in
  front of the computer

  Wear computer viewing glasses.

 You can buy these special glasses
  from optical shops. The lenses
    have a special anti-reflective
   coating that reduces the glare
    from screens and monitors.

      Follow the 20/20/20 rule.

  Every 20 minutes or so, give your
 eyes a break. Focus on something
     else other than your PC or
 gadget—another object that is 20
  feet away—for 20 seconds, then
     return to the task at hand.
