TRAVEL DATE TO PANGLAO ISLAND (October 2017) My family and I wanted to spend our vacation in a province as we have not been able to visit a beach for quite a long time. It’s great that we were able to see this accommodation in AirBnb and what sold us to this was its beachfront […]
TRAVEL DATE TO RIKUGIEN GARDEN (October 2018) Serenity. Calmness. Tranquility. These are just some of the words that come into your mind when you get a chance to visit the Rikugien Garden. I could imagine this as a great setting for haiku Japanese poems. Strolling along its greenery combined with the cacophony of bird sounds, […]
TRAVEL DATE TO TOKYO DISNEY SEA (October 2018) This was our first time in Japan. Because we both love Disney, it’s a foregone conclusion that we would also visit Disneyland here in Tokyo, Japan. We were surprised to find out that there’s actually 2 types of Disney theme parks here which are Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo […]
TRAVEL DATE TO MÖVENPICK HOTEL (October 2016) October is always special because it’s Marc’s birthday month. This time, we wanted to experience Cebu for the first time and so we opted to look for a place where the accommodation has its own private beach.

We initially thought that once we had our own personnummer (here’s the blog on how we applied for the Swedish personal number), everything will be OK but apparently not because we found out that in order to open a bank account here in Sweden, most of the banks require for us to present our Swedish […]
The be-all and end-all of your life here in Sweden. Having your own Swedish personal identity number or what they call here as personnummer is of the utmost importance when you decide to relocate here in Sweden especially if you’ll be living here for one year and more. Once you have this, this will be […]
Four days after arriving in Sweden, we immediately scheduled for our appointment to process this card. We scheduled this online last September 23rd and then the appointment we chose was for September 25th. We were advised by our Immigration Consultant that this should be carried at all times especially when in contact with government institutions […]
Every time we travel, my husband and I always deliberate the airlines we’ll be using. Emirates Airlines and Qatar Airways are always at the forefront of the world’s best airlines. For our most recent travel especially during this pandemic, here are the reasons why we chose Emirates Airlines over Qatar Airways for our flight to […]
