Hello mga sis, baka may idea kayo

Sa mga ofw na nag apply ng visa while in philippines, ano po ang ginawa nyo for the ITR requirement since exempted tayo as ofw?

Thank you mga sis.

[Memamimu]

Mga sis, confused ako sa what kind of pass or ticket card.
1. If my entry point is Osaka (1.5days)
-going around the city, what pass I need to use?
2. Then go Kyoto (2 days)
-from Osaka to kyoto, what to ride?
-Then going around kyoto, what pass also?
3. Then Kyoto to Tokyo, how?

Thanks.

[jelibinz]

Hi sis, what's your recommend agency for visa application? How long does it normally take to process japanese visa?

TIA sa mga magsheshare.

You can buy thermal underwear dito din sa Japan. I think price is just the same or maybe even cheaper here. Usually, may washing machine/laundry area per apartment. But they also have coin laundry.

[forumera]

Thanks sis, yung mga washing machine sa Japan, after malabhan ready to use na or need pa isampay? January kasi kami punta.

Where in Japan? Winter kasi yung January so hindi pwede magsampay sa labas. may mga washing machine na heated yung dryer nya. Meron din naman minsan nakahiwalay yung dryer. So I think you'll be alright.

[forumera]

woohoo will be in Japan on January, as in dun kami mag new year, 2 weeks kami dun, don't know what exactly to bring, overwhelming, ano ano ba talaga importante? help! kakailanganin ko ba tsinelas like Havaianas ganun or hindi na totally? may heat tech / thermal din ba na panty at bra? nakabili na ko heat tech longsleeves and leggings sa Uniqlo, tag dalawa lang, okay na ba yun? Anong shoes ba kailangan, okay na ba yung Stan Smith ng Adidas? Paano sa mountain, pwede na din ba yun? Can't wait to experience snow

[damonsgirl]

@forumera it?s very cold in January. You will not be able to use your havs other than indoors. I suggest you wear boots. And for snow, you can buy cleats from convenience stores so you don?t slip in roads covered in snow. I will be in Sapporo in Feb. It?s super cold there around -10 degrees daw. Also, I was able to buy thermal underwear from Greenhills. It?s like a tights set that you wear over your usual undies then patong nalang ng sweater and other layers then coat.

[forumera]

Magkano thermal underwear sa Greenhills? Sa Uniqlo, 990 pero sa Uniqlo Uptown Mall branch nag sale sila 790 na lang

[barbillie]

Hi mga sis! I booked a one-way ticket to Tokyo. Open-ended pa kasi hindi ko pa napaplano yung itinerary namin.

Any suggestion on the days distribution? We're planning to stay in Japan ng 10 days. Okay ba ang 3 days Tokyo, 3 days Osaka, 2 days Kyoto, and 2 days total travel time?

[kireinachean]

We did the same sis, entry point is Tokyo, then 4 days in Tokyo, 5 in Kyoto/Osaka, we stayed in Kyoto then travel 1 day lang sa Osaka but our exit is Kansai Airport in Osaka, we like the feel of Kyoto kase na medyo province and near lang sa station our hotel then may transfer din from Kyoto Terminal direct to KIX.

Inggit much, how I love Japan, the people, the culture and the food. God bless sissies!

What will happen kapag ni-consume yung mga binili sa Don Quijote? Magbabayad ng Consumption Tax? Magkano yun? Saka sobrang hassle ba sa airport kapag nahuli na ni-consume yung mga binili?
