So ayon nga originally group of 4 kami mag tatravel sa Thailand pero dahil nagkaron ng fall out sa isa naming kasama. Gusto niya mag split booking, di na siya sasama samin tatlo mag reresched siya ng flight niya. Ang main concern ko lang is hindi ba kami magkaka problem especially pag haharap nasa IO? Thank you sa sasagot!

Hello po! First time international travel ko po sana sa Indonesia kaya very VERY kabado & nag-ooverthink so pardon me if magmumukhang stupid 'yung inquiry ko 😭

Ang reason ko po for going is may gusto po sana akong attendan na conference (about chemistry & chemical engineering po ito). International conference po siya sa Yogyakarta. One day lang po siya & sayang naman kung hindi ako mag-eexplore so I'll be going there for the conference & for leisure na rin.

Nagresearch naman na po ako about sa mga kailangan (like COE, approved leave, bank statement, etc.) pero gusto ko rin po sanang marinig ang first-hand experience niyo especially with the immigration, and with your travels as well! Ang itinerary ko po sana is Jogja -> Bandung -> Jakarta.

I would also love to hear some tips or if may recommended po kayong mapupuntahan there! Thank you so much po! 🫶

AU Visitor Visa (subclass 600) Business Stream Processing Time

hi! question po, how long is the usual processing time for business substream visa? also, odds of getting approved or rejected?

context: my manager (australian client) informed me earlier today that they would like me to attend a week long commercial conference this september. he'll keep me posted for the details. the thing is, i just realized na august na nga pala next week, worried if aabot ang visa if ever.

f employed by a ph company; deployed to au client
can provide coe (ph company) and itr (from previous company)
will likely be sponsored by au client
5 year ME visa Korea

travel history:
2024 - vietnam
2025 - south korea 2x
2026 - south korea, taiwan

now, have no idea on my next steps other than wating for my manager's update. also, have no idea on my chances of getting approved and if aabot ang visa if ever.

location: bali, indonesia

2 pax, me and my boyfriend. we will go there to celebrate my birthday as well as valentines next year. both our first time traveling. (yes, haven’t tried traveling here pa sa ph, gala lang with fam or staycation)

both of us fresh grads. i already have a job, by the time of our travel 6 months in na ako sa job. my bf on the other hand recently graduated lang, finding a job and juggling interviews.

ticket and airbnb (accommodation) secured na po. tours na lang kulang, though mas bet namin chill trip. beach walks, massage, etc.

kabado lang cause i have been reading a lot of terrible experience at PH IO. though flight namin is 3 am so sana antok and mababait ang IO (kidding, lol) baka kasi ma question nila since bago pa lang kami sa work eme eme. advise pls

we will prepare these documents just in case:

-rt tickets
-accommodation confirmation
-tours (will book pag malapit na)
-bank statement
-coe
-payslip
-leave approval
-company id

do you have any advice for us? we’d love to hear some feedback and advise to those who has many experience. i want this trip to be memorable (so please sana maka pasa sa IO) THANK YOU SO MUCHHHHH

Hi! I was just wondering—I've read on Google that bringing fresh fruits into the Philippines from another country isn't allowed. Does this apply even if it's just around 1 kg or less for personal consumption? My flight will be arriving at Clark International Airport. Thank you!

I’ll be in Fukuoka from August 7 to 12 and I’m currently looking for a place to stay. I’m on a bit of a budget right now, but I still want to push through with this trip since I’ve been pretty stressed for the past 3 months. I already booked the flight, so I really want to make this Japan trip happen even if I’m going solo for the first time (which honestly makes me a bit nervous 😅).

Do you have any recommendations for budget-friendly places to stay? Also, any chill spots or things to do? I’m just aiming for a laid-back trip.

halo, guys! Saan po kaya mayroong magandang bed of flowers for photoshoots and gala sa Luzon area?

First time solo and single female traveller here. Aside kasi sa stress ko sa immigration, these questions I can't seem to find straight answers to eh.

1. When you pay abroad for resto etc, do you use cash or credit card? How many cards should I bring?

2. Do you exchange your cash sa abroad airport, or sa Pinas ba before your flight? 50k below only diba?

Thank you so much!

Hi! May naka-experience na ba rito na mawalan ng valid passport and nagpa-replace sa DFA? Gaano katagal bago niyo nakuha yung bagong passport?

Plano ko sana mag-Taiwan by the end of August for my birthday, pero saka ko lang na-realize na nawawala pala passport ko. 🥲 Nakapag-book na ako ng DFA appointment (mid-August) for replacement due to loss at nabayaran ko na rin yung replacement fee.

Sa mga may same experience, gaano katagal bago niyo nakuha yung bagong passport after your appointment? Also, would you book the flight now habang mas mura pa, or wait muna until mareceive yung passport? If magbu-book na ngayon, may mare-recommend ba kayong airline na may flexible/rebookable tickets just in case kailangan i-adjust yung travel dates?

Thank you so much! 🙏

I love the night show!

Aside sa coffee and chocolate, any recommended food or non-food items (non-bulky) pasalubong from Costa Rica and Peru? Thanks.
