A mix of motivation, strength and resilience. This is what I feel each and every time I watch Johnnie Walker’s 2014 #KeepWalkingLebanon campaign. What an inspiring campaign for all the Lebanese citizens! It’s the story of a flame rooted in the ground that keeps burning in the face of all the storms trying to take over the cedars land. […]

You Got A Gift - Online Gift Card Mall

Allainz Exotica

I was checking out a series of Allianz Life Insurance ads and was struck by the similarity with Exotica’s Mothers Day ads campaign.
