Former Pinoy Big Brother Celebrity Collab Edition housemate Esnyr may not have won the top prize for the popular reality show. Still, he was grateful for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

What Esnyr hopes to achieve after 'PBB'

During a media conference for the Kapamilya housemates recently, Esnyr said that his months of journey in Bahay Na Kuya made him appreciate the small things.

"Mas naging appreciative ako sa Bahay ni Kuya. Mas naging faithful ako sa little things kasi limited kami rito sa pagkain or kulang kami sa tulog. Na-appreciate ko yun dahil sila ang mga kasama ko rito sa bahay. Kahit ano lang na-appreciate ko like katabi kong matulog si crush. I am grateful. (I became more appreciative at PBB. I became more faithful in the little things because we were limited in food, or we didn't get enough sleep. I appreciated that because they were my companions here at home. I enjoyed anything, like my crush sleeping next to me. I am grateful)," the Filipino comedian said.

But Esnyr admitted that he and his tandem, Charlie Fleming, wanted to win the reality program. However, the duo ultimately finished in third place overall.
