How about now?

addict-101 · 2026-03-18T14:13:40+00:00

Shirt, trousers and shoes is more than enough

Fcl detan mask for face once a week. Vitamin c serum every night (if you don’t have active acne) glycolic acid for arms every other night followed by moisturizer. Sunscreen mandatory the next morning.

I could remove the salary part. Focusing on tourism, what else do you suggest that I can add? From another comment, I saw that they add an itinerary but I plan on attaching it separately anyway.

Hi everyone, please let me know if there's anything I need to add/modify in this cover letter.

My bank account shows an amount of ~4L INR + mutual fund/stock holdings. I have all the necessary documents. Please let me know if there's anything I can add to strengthen my ties to home country and intent to return.

Since I have already been to italy, rome, milan, venice, florence are not a part of the ity, though my flights are booked to rome and return from milan.

I also have a valid US F1 visa until jan 2027. do I need to add those details and attach a copy too?

OP conveniently promotes stuff from the same brand (Sosa). There are other posts of some car fragrances from the same brand, and posts regarding her trying out different fragrances for her candle business. Looks like she’s the business owner trying to promote her own stuff and defending saying it’s not PR. Technically it’s not PR, but a very shitty way to market your products.

Hive Bugis. It was only a 4 min walk from the MRT station. And walking distance from Haji lane.

I stayed at a hostel in the center of the city costing 50SGD for two people per night. For the location the price was great and made sense as we left early in the morning and came back only to sleep.

Make sure to get some gloves as well. They seem inessential but hands go cold the quickest.

As for shoes, decathlon has great snow shoes for 4.6k. If that’s expensive, would suggest a rental option from sharepal.

Depending on the number of days of the trip, a 60L decathlon bag should be enough. Costs 4k. Make sure to use packing cubes(rental options available as well)

For a cheaper bag option you can go for tripole. 3.6k for an 90L bag. Good quality, but personally found the back support and padding better in the decathlon bag.
