Calaguas Island 🌴 | Camarines Norte, Philippines

Beautiful Calaguas :)
Calaguas is a beautiful island from its clear water, powdery white sand like boracay and a peaceful surrounding is almost like a paradise :) definitely one of the best island to visit nowadays! specially if you're tired visiting crowded beaches. A very laid-back island, simple and stress-free, far from the hectic city life!

Calaguas is an island located in the province of Camarines Norte. As part of our DIY Bicol region tour this year is to visit this lovely place. For almost 2 hours of rough boat ride was worth it. Gonna share some photos how I love Calaguas :)

Bagasbas Beach - First time Surfing

Bagasbas Beach is located in Daet, Camarines Norte in Bicol. After our sakit katawang experience in Camsur (CWC) for day 1, we had a surfing sidetrip to Bagasbas beach the next day. We wanted to have a best trip ever!  We leave Camarines Sur early in the morning, had lunch in the terminal and reached the beach around 2 in the afternoon. Trying our luck in surfing ...Lol!!
superfriends here we come! :)
We rest a little and had our late meryendang pansit at Surfer's Dine-Inn and decided to settled one night in that place. We know its kinda late na to surf because we started around 4 pm na but we wanted to try it anyway. We are so excited to try something new so no matter what time it is .. go for gold! hahaha


all ready!!:)

Bangkok, Thailand-(Residence Permit Biometric Process)

My residence permit requires me to visit the Swedish Embassy in Bangkok Thailand just to leave my biometric (btw you can do that for just one whole day!). So I was thinking, instead of just going there for my biometric why not get a tour package at the same time right? (personal and tour just in one!!) and of course I want to explore the place naman and see more of Bangkok, Thailand 😊

Suvarnabhumi Airport Bangkok, Thailand
When my family and I arrived in Bangkok, we proceed and check in at Salil Hotel at Soi 8. I will recommend this hotel a 100 % worth of stay. WIFI is good, excellent food and staff are amazing! better check it and say hello to the receptionist which is a Filipina too, yep! she is Pinay like me 😊 so its easy for us to get along with right? hahaha. 

I would suggest you to book in this hotel if you will going to take your Biometric in Swedish Embassy in Bangkok. This hotel is not too far from the Embassy and it only take 10 minutes walk from hotel to the Embassy. I tell you, you will not regret staying in here and they have free breakfast that is buffet style hahaha which is I really love :) eat till you drop!!

Salil Hotel at Soi 8 :)
Breakfast is buffet style. There are  lot of choice for those who prefer a more traditionally western breakfast. They also serve thai breakfast too. Pour your own coffee and make your own tea., juice or water.. :)

They run a golf cart to help their guest to drop to Nana BTS train station :)
We stayed 4D/3nights in Bangkok and I decided to allot one whole day just for my biometric process. I really wanted to make sure that I will not stress out on time and be rushed on everything. Guess what!! I finished it in just 10 minutes! in my surprise. I went there early in the morning just to make sure I am early (as they say "Early bird catches the worm), so 8am to be exact and I am the first applicant in the line. 😉 Good thing is that, Swedish embassy is only just 10 mins walk from my hotel. That is why I highly recommend this Salil Hotel.

My Queue Ticket show number 5 LOL im the first applicant 😉
 
Swedish Embassy in Bangkok 
20th F, One Pacific Place 140 Sukhumvit Road, 
between soi 4 and soi 6 bangkok Thailand. 

Biometric takes only for 10 minutes or less especially if you are early in the line and keep in mind that the embassy gets more busy in the middle of the day so better be early as much as possible. Embassy officer is really nice and accommodating just present your Beslut (decision) and passport to them and they will just take a photo of you, weight, height, finger prints and signature and that was it!! so easy! before you leave they will give you a information sheet where you can call to update your card. 

After that ... the tour is about to begin! :)

CFO Guidance and Counseling Program (GCP) | Fiancé(e)’s, Spouses, and Partners

Well, my last STEP before I say "bye Pinas!". When I got  my residence card  the consulate reminds me to attend a seminar at CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) to get the CFO CERTIFICATE and EMIGRANT STICKER on my passport (REQUIRED and its a must!!). They inform me that the immigration officer at the airport will check this document together with my visa before my departure so I need to secure and provide these documents.

I wanted to be ready with all the important documents so I apply for my schedule instantly hahaha because, I didn't want to experience being held for questioning on the day of my departure which is too much hassle or might get worst to be offloaded on my plane!.. which I don't want to happen on me lol 😃
