The World Is My Ube

Welcome to The World Is My Ube

I'm Jerome Espinosa Baladad — Filipino immigrant, caregiver, world traveler, writer, and art collector living in New York City. I've been here for over 20 years, married to Sylvester Lane, a Harlem-born & raised musician and vocalist for DLS Reborn.


For more than a decade, my husband and I have used Isotonix supplements to support our health and energy. Sylvester manages his diabetes with Isochrome, and I rely on a daily regimen including OPC-3, Vitamin D, Magnesium, Digestive Enzymes, and more. If you're looking for quality supplements with proven absorption, I'm happy to share what have worked for us.


Beyond health products, I curate books, art, and ephemera collected during my years exploring New York City and traveling the world. I'm also the author of "Angels in Disguise: Leavings & Goings at the Chocolate Hills" available on Amazon.


This site is a reflection of my life — the places I've been, the things I love, and the products and services I believe in.
