Carmina was on vacation on the month of June visiting California. Carmina has a best friend who wanted to bring me out to explore only difference she is not into the social media. It was difficult to explain why needed to film places we went together. Carmina's best friend asked if she would like to visit a museum in San Francisco. I said sure giving me something my viewers would be able capture the inside a museum. Carmina's best friend went to pick her up and was told no filming while we're together. I was sad and wanted to film places making it a memory. Upon reaching Golden Gate Park Carmina held back filming when said to my best friend Mom Violy would like to see what is inside De Young Museum . The only problem she cannot walk several hours will get tired. Mom Violy is into museum. Best friend sure you can film inside just no talking or adding me to the video. I was very excited and made a challenge to myself. Several YouTubers make silent videos when posting in thei...
Carmina wanted to get a different point of view when coming from another area in California to see how it was like visiting the Philippines.
Carmina asked her cousin Yana if she would like to participate to let us know the feeling visiting her family members during the pandemic.
Carmina asked Yana some questions to answer by emailing it to her and sending photos/videos during her vacation.

Yana's Traveling Wellness from Los Angeles to the Philippines
Coming from Los Angeles, there is a
big difference from traveling during the pandemic compared to when
life was normal. The travel regulations are very strict in the Philippines.
It's too hassle to go to your hotel accommodations. You pass through an
inspection such as an x-ray machine. Not only that, but you also have to
show proof of your Covid-19 vaccination card every time you step in
the hotel entrance. You have to wear mask all the time even when you dine
in except when you're eating. At the shopping malls, there is a security guard
(or security guards) that check and inspect your purse.
Family was the 1st reason for visiting the
Philippines. It has been 2 years since our last visit. Next reason, Philippines
has a lot of islands beautiful islands to see at an affordable price, not too
expensive to travel to and from the Philippines.
We were there on July 19-August 14. Not a good time to travel in the Philippines due to its rainy weather.
We went to Panglao, Bohol (Central Visayan Region), Manila and Palawan (Puerto Princesa and El Nido)
While in Manila, we stayed in SOFITEL PHILIPPINE PLAZA MANILA, CITY OF DREAMS-NOBU HOTEL, and HYATT CITY OF DREAMS.
In
Panglao Bohol, we stayed in The Bellevue and Heann Resort Alona Beach.
In
Puerto Princesa, we stayed in Princesa Garden Island while in El Nido
Palawan, we stayed in Cauayan Resort.
My favorite Ube is the food I crave the most aside from that, the ube ensaymada from Goldilocks, Halo-halo and the fresh buko juice.
We don't have a hard time adjusting to the humid weather because the humidity in the Philippines is almost the same as the humidity here in Los Angeles, California.
Based on our travel experience, we would recommend Boracay. It's so beautiful the beach, the view and selection of restaurants.
If you want peace/serenity, staying at the Cauayan Island is the best place to stay while in El Nido. You have to ride their private speed boat ride for 10-20 minutes to/from the town proper. This place is good to stay for 2 days. Don't miss the island hopping while in El Nido.
