Did you know filling your eTravel form can save hours at the airport?

One problem when departure San Francisco returning back to Manila, Philippines was filing online forms for the  E Travel . Everyone who wasn't prepared and unable to figure how to fill up the form was required before you would present your flight information and passport to Philippines Airlines. The process had delayed each passenger filling up the forms. I recommend you filling up the form letting you do it 48 hours before your departure. Make sure you have a picture available in your cellphone to be able retrieve and attach it to the form you've filled up. Once you've completed the forms, you'll receive an email with a QR Code make sure you screen shot it and present it upon your arrival when needed. Anyone who is your family members can be under your application just need to fill up the form with their details. Upon arriving in the Philippines, you will receive a SMS from the mobile number given. NOT SPONSORED. Check out  Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel  and click ...

Memories Kept in a Scrap book or Slide show

When I was single I loved making scrap books for my friends and give it to them for their graduation, birthday or just appreciation of our friendship. In those days that was the in thing making scrap book and combining photo and cutting pictures from the magazine. Scrap book is not the trend. People no longer develop pictures and put in a photo album. All pictures are combined into a CD. We share our pictures in social media or make it into a slide show through our computer or phone. Even though that seems to be the trend I still find time to make a video of my family or close friends in celebration of their birthday, wedding or just the appreciation of what our friendship means to me. I want the people I give too cherish the memories we had shared with each other.  Now, we don't need to keep it in a DVD we can keep it in our phones and keep playing it over again. I love taking the time combining pictures together and finding the right song that seems to be apart what I ...

Antipolo is the east part of the Philippines in Rizal. It is the coldest area to live in the month of January. There are a lot of places to visit in Antipolo.  We had visited Cloud 9 with my Uncle was in town visiting the Philippines. You can see the over looking view of Manila from the top of their building.

Lake Tahoe, Sierra Nevada

Carmina had visited the United States my Aunt Hermie had invited Mom Violy and I to spend time with her. Aunt Hermie drove during the time. I was her assistant in the back seat when Aunt Hermie wanted some certain fruits to peel to wake her up during her long drive. Lake Tahoe from her home is 3 hours and 37 minutes' drive. We had lunch in Hard Rock Cafe in Lake Tahoe. We had stayed in Harris Hotel and was able to try real fine dinning with some dancing with the other VIP stands for Very Important Person. My Aunt Hermie had tickets to watch a concert at the hotel. I was able to experience watching a live concert in front of me. The band was Fabulous Boys. The next day we ate at the hotel before we had headed back home. NOT SPONSORED. Subscribe @ Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel  a place to look, discover and share. Thank you for your support!

How to Deal with In-Law's As They Aged

You never knew when you spend less time with someone. You just realize when you decide to have dinner with your in-law's. You see something different from them. My father in-law is not capable of seeing anything in front of him. He questions what food has been cook. Can no longer identify the food in front of him. You notice his shirt that he is wearing is reverse which the tag from the back is now in the front. He doesn't seem to notice any difference. He starts to walk slower at his pace. He can't hear well even if you are talking louder than you should. He laughs when you say something. You realized something is changing and no matter what you can't feel sorry for them aging this way. How do you cope with it someone living in your home being this way? I see my sister in-law coming to the house to check on him on a daily basis. They are so worried and concern of their father who has changed so much in less than a time. Mother in-law patiently serves...
