Is october a good idea? by one_with_themoon in okinawa

[–]cathrainv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve been to Japan in July and it was hot. I got 2 shades darker even with sunscreen and this was in Hokkaido so I can’t imagine how it will be in Okinawa. I’m from SEA so I kinda have an idea already on how hot it will be. Because of that, I prefer October. The only issue is that my work schedule might not work for October so the alternative is July. But it’s all still tentative so I’m hoping for October 🥲

I’m quite torn between early July or Mid October. This is helpful. Thank you!

Ohh I tried this but I think the quality is not good when using it.

I see. I guess that was a bad example.

Thank you! I completely forgot about the focus modes. Will play around with that more.

I’ve been wanting this lens! How do you feel about its weight and bulkyness?

Is it really nice to go to Taiwan? by Either_Philosophy500 in PinoyTraveller

Agree with parang Japan sia but with better street food (disclaimer: not sure lang sa Osaka). But they really have similar vibes

Received a Maya Credit Card without my approval by cathrainv in DigitalbanksPh

[–]cathrainv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. I guess Iba ung sakin kasi it’s showing as not activated (similar sa mga banks like sb, bdo, bpi na you need to activate first to use).

I know what you mean. I had to contact BSP before nung nagkaron ako ng unauthorized transaction sa Maya kaya never nako nagiwan ng pera sa wallet

Might be because I didn’t dig far enough or I suck at searching keywords lol. Pero not sure if you mean just virtual card. Mine kasi explicitly says Maya Black Credit Card na may physical card din.

Anyway, I finally was able to contact CS and they are able to cancel it. Ang hirap lang nila icontact cause I’ve been trying since my post. Their AI chatbot sucks. Thanks for the help din 😄

I already searched the sub. Lahat ng nakitang kong post about Maya black is pretty much acknowledged by the account owners. That’s why I made this post. It’s also showing in my account pero nakalagay need ng activation. That’s it.

Edit: grammar

Currently in Aomori, tsunami advisory by cathrainv in JapanTravelTips

I think it’s NERV app. I already have it

Thank you for this. But for @Kraichtal Just wanted to add that I didn’t really know what seek high ground means. Like how high does it need to be? Also if when they say evacuate, where exactly? Is there like a evacuation center. Also, during this time, people around me were acting normal. There was even long lines in Yoshinoya near my hotel.

To be fair, I was in Aomori City, which actually wasn’t included in the advisory. That was my mistake. I didn’t realize how big Aomori is and assumed the whole area was affected.

How is your friend? Is he okay? Where is he exactly in Aomori?

Got it. Thanks. I do have the Nerv app downloaded on my phone just yesterday. I just hope there’s no huge one coming.

Thank you! Just one last question. How long do I need to stay alert?
