We now approach the final week of chasing the sun with Wrangler, it was indeed a fun experience for me I hope you also had yours, looking through old and new pictures made me see once more how my life has been and I must say I am lucky enough to have traveled in some destinations here in our very own country, Philippines. But before we close this last week, we have one more challenge that might get you to win Wrangler's awesome prizes. And also don't forget I have my own set of GC's to give away too!
