Pilipinas Teleserv

I've heard so many horror stories about the passport application process. I have no time, nor the strength to brave those horrors.

I am glad I found out about this firm that processes passport applications. All I had to do was call their hotline to find out about the requirements. Once I had everything, I called them up again to arrange for a pick-up of the documents. They use Aboitiz 2Go. I was given a schedule for appearance at the DFA.

Their service was very convenient and reliable. I was met up by an usher who brought me to their window. All I had to do was to counter-check the forms and sign in behalf of my son. My passport and other documents, which were sent to the DFA, are still in good condition.

My whole stay didn't last for 15 minutes. Amazing! I was informed that the passport will be delivered to me in two weeks.

Service fee is P1,300. That includes pick-up of requirements, scheduling, processing and delivery of passport. It is more expensive if you choose to go about it on your own. I chose to pay more to save time and to eliminate unnecessary inconvenience. I am unsure if the rate covers the "red-tape" charges.

I can still recall my first passport application. I had to wake up early anticipating the long lines. I remember the heat and the sweating. When it was over, I was glad that I didn't have to apply for another one in the near future. I remember pitying those who had to go through the whole process without the help of a travel agent.

Thank God for Teleserve. I will definitely use their service again for Javi. I hope they can provide the same service to other government agencies.

Luxury Bags in Japan

Since almost everyone I know visited Japan this summer, I would like re-live my visit this year through this post.  This time, I will focus on luxury bags. We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...

Great Finds for the New Year

I'm always excited to try out new products.  I've tried these new products and found them to be very satisfactory.  I hope you get to try these out too. 1. Soap and Glory's Clarity - I was about to become Rudolf, the reindeer, before I found this.  It stopped my zit from becoming a full-blown center-of-attraction.  It has a very refreshing smell that is very much needed after a sweating it out the whole day.  Available at Sephora stores. 2.  Mocha Rose by Rosebud Perfume Co -  If you like the Rosebud Salve balms that come in small tin pods, you will love this product.  It comes in an easy-open tube for convenience and effortless application.  The application tip has a velvety texture unlike most balms in a tube.  More importantly, the balm is so effective, it took out the dryness on my lips in a couple of applications.  Also available at Sephora stores.  ...

Gratitude Calendar 11/5

  I have always been afraid of the dark.  But growing up and becoming a parent, I have learned to overcome that (along with other fears), so that my children will not grow up fearing trivial things.
