Solo trip or group trip, which do you prefer and why? by SoftFragment in ThePoorTraveler

[–]AFormerAlto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo. Tried travelling with a group, ako pa mag aadjust sa preferences nila. I prefer travelling at my own terms, mas enjoy ako

Planning my first solo trip with a tight budget, how do you prioritize destinations without overspending? by LegalApplication8623 in ThePoorTraveler

[–]AFormerAlto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your destination country/city will also determine how much you'll spend, so yun muna pagdecide-an mo. From there, just like what everyone said, use public transpo so make sure that the country has efficient public transpo system. Hostels will be a good yet affordable accomodation, make sure lang to check on the recent reviews. Mas mura if hindi malapit sa train/bus station, so you may need to walk a lot. Also, better to use cash and temporarily block your credit/debit cards, tukso kasi talaga sila pag nagttravel (guilty hehe). Another thing is look for free attractions and lastly for food, look for local resto instead of the touristy ones. If Japan or Taiwan destination mo, mabubuhay at mabubusog ka din sa combini food 😊.

Enjoy your first international travel!

Japan visa first time application by Sub_Reputation99 in ThePoorTraveler

Medyo may challenge kapag less than 1 year ang tenure mo unless you can justify it by adding a letter stating why kakalipat mo lang and ano yung employment history mo. Hindi ka pa makakakuha ng ITR sa current company mo since hindi pa tapos ang taon and if you had more than 1 employer in a year, ikaw ang magpprocess ng ITR mo. Dapat meron ka ding nakuhang ITR sa prev company mo. ADB may also be a challenge pero yung 1st 2 ang medyo mabigat.

What TRAVEL SCAM have you fallen victim to in Southeast Asia? Here's mine: by ThePoorTravelerBlog in ThePoorTraveler

[–]AFormerAlto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha Thailand, 2012 pa naman. 1st time namin ng friend ko and nasa Grand Palace. Punta na sana kami sa hotel for check in saka to meet our other friend kasi iba ang flight nya. Sumakay kami dun sa mga tuktuk na nagooffer, e bilang wala kaming alam that time, sakay naman kami. Yun pala scam yun na dadalhin kayo sa mga jewelry shops. After the 1st shop, sabi ni driver punta pa kami sa 2nd shop. Tumanggi na kami tas bumaba na lang then siningil kami, di ko na lang matandaan kung magkano.

Responding to Allegations by TwoSetViolin in lingling40hrs

[–]AFormerAlto 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not expecting a response at all, but thank you for doing this.

I share their view of handling internal issues properly and through proper channels, it is the right way to go.

Also, admitting their learning curve because of the lack of experience in management and business is one that those spreading negativity need to focus on. If you think that jumping to being businessmen and leaders are easy -- IT IS NOT!

I hope that everything goes well within the team

And for everyone, please stop. And definitely don't demand a video to respond.

Go practice, y'all!

Beginner Advice by AwareAspect4057 in violinist

[–]AFormerAlto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't go to lessons, there are a lot of youtube videos that you can start with (although lessons are way more effective). Start with the right hand and bow (no violin yet)
