So why are we making this stream all of a sudden? Well because actually I've been traveling I think in total I've traveled four months out of the whole year So I've been out of the country for four whole months So I've actually been through quite a number of ordeals when it comes to traveling and it's not just the plane rides going there it's all the logistics and the paperwork involved just even preparing to go there and it was a very stressful experience In fact I actually wrote a Philippine daily inquire article about my overall travel ordeal You can actually find it on the inquire webpage just look for my name Rafael Conejos because my entire family except my brother Anton of course because Anton and I are always here they left for abroad and so I was really alone here in the house for maybe a good 10 months So I really wanted to visit my family in the States in January but you think is that January was the height of the Omicron variant like globally I'm Mitch Medz sorry I don't think you're first this time and so like there were so many logistical efforts about going to the States one and two also going to Singapore during Omicron also now things are a lot more different but lots of things have changed and so I have saved maybe close to a hundred or 200,000 pesos doing simple tips and tricks and the number one the number one thing you need to always do is never get COVID and I'm saying this not because I don't believe the vaccines work I'm not saying that it's because shame on you that you got COVID no, it's purely because getting COVID is expensive if you're traveling So number one, para cancel you have to rebook your flight kung hindi free cancellation ng hotel mo you're dead and then after that it's a whole domino effect so if you can't make it to one flight then you won't be able to make it to that hotel and the other flight because you would need to stay quarantine for two weeks it's a whole, it's a crap show but let's not get ahead of ourselves okay so I actually have an interesting guide for you right now in the YouTube video if you look at the ad descriptions I have links to all the websites that are useful for travel as well as all my gear so later on in the show I'm going to show you these so I've been using like the 3M N95 masks and then the KN95 so I'll show you also how to put these on and you might be wondering why am I using a Philips Hue box for these masks well, I'll let you know in a second first off, let's go in order I have a list of questions so number one ano ba? itong DOH VAC cert or BOK yellow card or yung local government unit vaccine card or yung foreign vaccine card ano ba? so that is like the number one question people always ask lay magdai RGB masks you know I was really tempted to get the razor RGB mask but I held off so it was either the razor RGB mask or it was going to be the LG the LG mask was really interesting they have this really cool anyway super expensive and I think the time has passed guys, I think the time has passed anyway so what vaccine certificate should you have really? because there are a lot of overlapping okay, so what is each? so number one there's the VAC cert PH so at a VAC cert PH you get from the Department of Health website and then there's also a yellow card you don't get this from DOH you get this from the Bureau of Quarantine hi Dan Garcia moniker pero hindi daw palado to o yung N95 certification for the three okay, I'm just going to quickly answer moniker's question for 3M 3M has a as a code for each box so you can actually go on the 3M website which is an international website to verify every single box to see that they're original so that's one and then number two there are several N95 kinds of masks but it's the blue one which is medical grade the other ones are actually used for woodworks or painting so if you want the absolute best protection I would recommend the N95 3M but by the way, I'm not a doctor this is just me YouTube being and stuff I just did my research and I'm just passing it on but in the end all, kaya nabahala on what you want to do for yourself anyway, back to the DOH DOH VAC cert versus the Bureau of Quarantine yellow card so are they the same? they're not the same actually issued by two different government agencies and so the one question you might ask is is it better to have one over the other it depends on where you're going it depends on where you're going and number two it also depends on if you already have it so one thing I would recommend really is go to the VAC cert PH website don't go to the Bureau of Quarantine yet VAC cert PH Kamuna in the video description so you can check it out if you've never applied for it just check it kasi the local government units once you get a vaccine they automatically upload it and if you're lucky nanjanna so if it's if you've had your shot three days beforehand ah sorry moniker you meant for the razor face mask yes, I totally agree kasi hindi siya N95 certified you're a correct moniker I mean like 2,000 no offense, I'm sure it's really nice RGB anyway, go to the VAC cert PH website first because number one automated siya like all the local government units they automatically should send it out in fact nga my booster shot was already there, I didn't even need to type in anything so my booster shot was already there on VAC cert PH so I'm telling you go to VAC cert PH because if you have this you're pretty much good wherever now pretty much unless the country you're visiting only wants the bureau of quarantine yellow card in which case I read an article a week back that Hong Kong only accepts the BOK I don't know if that's up to date but there was an article that so far they're only accepting yellow card so Singapore if you want to automatically validate your vaccine certificate they recommend you use the DOH VAC cert because if you tried uploading your bureau of quarantine QR code it ain't gonna work, I tried it so I'm actually have a flight to Singapore for a week and it's not accepting my yellow card so again it might actually be handy to have both but panang the VAC cert PH it's superior one superior because one it's supposedly automated two panang more people have it and three my QR code siya when fairness my QR code din si bureau of quarantine hi Christian Gonzalez and hey itxaddict nice to see you didn't join my game stream the other day what happened however I have been getting text messages purchases I don't know why but I get the text message every time you make a purchase for a hardware sugar anyway the problem lang with VAC cert PH is if your vaccine isn't registered so my history is in December I got a yellow card for my original dosage so I had my first and second dose I went to get my BOQ my yellow card because to be honest panang I wasn't so sure about VAC cert PH back in December and then so I got I got that but then I needed to add my booster problema panang for the longest time like in January or February they weren't allowing the adding of boosters into the yellow card so I couldn't even add the booster so I went and got the booster and I checked the VAC cert PH my booster naman showed up on the VAC VAC cert PH site so what I've been doing right now is I'm dual wielding like I'm showing my BOQ to show my original dose and then I show my VAC cert PH for my booster but if we were all good workers and you know I mean like if they if everything was working perfectly then my original doses should have shown up on VAC cert PH so now what happens if you don't what if your vaccine card what if something is wrong with your VAC cert PH either mali yung pangalan mali yung vaccine ah I moniker yes my corsair headset talks with a nice lady voice actually si Anton gets turned on by that lady voice hi newbie master it's a raw topic I know you have good monitors and you have a lot of experience in monitors I'm planning to buy a 27 inch 240 Hz monitor for e-sports gaming pedagamitin ko din for other games 27 inch is a good buff for 1080 or 10 to 40 Hz okay I do master 69 thanks for reaching out to me I actually am the monitor expert I guess my recommendation here is get the 27 inch 240 Hz monitor like if you're gonna game the number one rule is refresh rate is much more important than resolution that's in my opinion most people can't even tell when it's already 4k so actually 1080p 27 inch 240 Hz you'll be a very happy camper go 27 inch you can also go 24 inch but you know what that 3 extra inches makes such a big difference and you might think it won't but it does it really does make a big difference okay so VaxertPH if you have a problem I gave the link there's a phone number there and an email so my recommendation is email mo sila tell them na what's wrong send them your Vaxert your ID and stuff like that and then after that follow up with them three days later with a phone call you said three working days we're already on the fourth working day which I'm not gonna panic yet but come on let's go for the yellow card it's actually kind of cool to carry around a yellow card booklet which I do a hard copy but actually both the Vaxert and Bureau of Quarantine yellow card the QR code actually gives you a soft copy so my pdf copyyan is a screenshot on your phone which is the most important thing because to me all these things are really nice but if there's no soft copy it sucks but thankfully latto may soft copy and then they all look legit master good luck on your 27 inch let us know what 240hz monitor you got because actually it's even higher than mine right now I'm rocking a MSI 164hz monitor I'm very happy with it 164hz happy na ako 240hz you're crazy but at the same time you won't be able to reach 240hz unless you have the system which can actually give you that refresh rate so if your game is very demanding tapos metroluma yung video card niyo at cpu you won't be seeing the refresh rate of the max refresh rate of the monitor okay that's my warning just make sure that your rig can handle generating that refresh rate otherwise sayang naman yung gastos mo next is where to get the latest COVID travel information depending on where you're going it can actually get really overwhelming and confusing on where to get the latest travel info let's say you're going to go to the states you can actually go to the US CDC website at travel website which I recommend you do not a quick perusa like quick lang guaranteed na nang jen na agad type in mo sa google philippine airlines travel to united states philippine airlines has a really really good updated travel requirements so like i went to the states via pal on january and obviously i checked that website out but i also went to singapore i looked at the travel requirements for both singapore and europe at the philippine airlines website even though i was using different airlines na so the philippine airlines is a good website to start parang it's your universal place to go to look for the latest travel info like do you need a booster shot to enter do you need a second booster shot to enter what kind of documents do you need do you need take a pcr test even if na ka booster ka na those are the kind of questions that the philippine airlines website answers for you and also it also tells you the requirements for coming home so yun na yes i recommend that you always go check out the latest travel info in the specific country you're going to so yung equivalent ng duh dun sa states or singapore or germany or wherever you're going but if you want just like a guaranteed perusa lang or you go there pal is a very good pal is very good in updating their site okay so another another tip that i really really want to highlight is make sure you get free cancellation so bookonagoda.com book on booking.com book on airbnb but make sure that they are free cancellation you might be tempted to get the cheaper cheaper rate but non-cancelable okay no refund i can't remember how many times i was really tempted to pay for that hey revinjan yo what's going on but i'm telling you please for your peace of mind you never know kasi what will happen you never know if you'll get covid and when i say one of us gets covid hose alvarez shout out so when i say get covid i assume all of us are vaccinated and so we're all not going to be very sick it's just very hassle if you get covid you won't be able to fly in which case you won't be able to reach your accommodation and then you need to beg you need to beg to the hotel na hey can you refund even though dapat hindi refundable can you refund anyway no please do not be a slave to your hotel okay so i really really recommend that you always get free cancellation what i did was i got free cancellation for my singapore travels for my us travels but then it was only free cancelable up until the last four or five days so once you reach that fourth or fifth day it's the point of no return na talaga so like that means you cannot cannot get covid whatsoever during that window otherwise you're screwed you won't be able to make your flight you have to rebook your flight that costs money too you need to beg the hotel to give a refund okay so what i'm saying is that even though we're all very careful right now it's very tempting to go out and breathe in the air and go maskless will you be posting this on youtube eric cry it is on youtube actually already actually you're replying on youtube this all live streams are saved automatically on youtube but i haven't made a video of it because i'm not sure if people were interested in me making a video out of it so i've just made a live stream of it so let me know in the comment section if this actually interests you ay po yo ya medyo kakalungkot nga but there are two people now on the facebook hardware sugar okay but right now there are 26 strong on the youtube page good on you guys so again accommodations free cancellation i think i went kinda crazy here kasi my travel itinerary back in january was new york then singapore after three weeks now this is important because i wasn't allowed to travel to singapore straight from the philippines ba wal ako nung time na yan i was only allowed to travel if one i had a number one is if i had if i stayed in a approved vaccine traveling country for at least two weeks prior and number two that i can provide a vaccine certificate from from one of the approved countries problema i got vaccinated i got vaccinated at home but i couldn't but i didn't but the singaporeans wouldn't accept my vaccine card good thing na lang my booster shot was i was already ripe for a booster shot in the states so i got a johnson johnson shot in the states and then i was able to qualify so it was actually kind of scary for me because i didn't even know if i'd be allowed to travel to singapore from the united states i needed to go there get a appointment to get shot for my booster and then travel i needed to apply pa for a form that would allow me to travel there but i had already pre-booked all my flights going to singapore and then there was a specific plane there was a specific flight that you were only allowed to be on it's crazy anyway i have it in i have things to show you guys later next is before we go there let me show you what i'm talking about here to show you that i actually did this crazy stuff hold on a second let me get rid of this this is so surreal alright so that was me in naia back in january and i was just like see i'm wearing the n95 mask and then i'm like oh my gosh this is this is crazy and i was i was i was terrified because i actually have hypertension so i've been hypertensive since i was 12 years old and so they're always saying that yung mga tao na my comorbidities um you know you shouldn't you're more prone to getting serious covid or long covid so i was concerned for myself and also during omicron time panang what do you call it all the other vaccines weren't as effective anymore in terms of preventing all at all out like not getting covid at all so i was concerned anyway so back to the questions um airline tickets best way to rebook okay so assuming that uh liya magnay a curious question did i ever get a covid scared during my travels ay hold on a second yes i did um it was actually when i arrived in the states i had already pre-booked with costco to get a johnson and johnson booster shot and when i got it of course i was i was you know i was ready to experience um the side effects of the vaccine but the thing is i got it the day after i arrived so i couldn't tell if i was jet lag or if i got covid or if it was the johnson and johnson and johnson vaccine and number four crazy to it was a new york blizzard like i arrived like two days before a blizzard and then na wala yung power sa arabian bico so uh sorry i mean reanimations i actually have the sihoo m18 takalala make sure anyon that i have the correct one let me see um shout out to cost you less for sending us over the sihoo v sorry not i don't have the m18 i have the v1 which i already assembled and actually the review is already in the process it's actually i had but i had to move the chair around because someone wanted to borrow it so i'm back to my aeron for now but i was using it for the past week and a half ah yeah hi kaiser yes this is the one with the breaker room yeah um what do you call it na tripping breaker because hey i had the heaters on and then the breaker room was locked so i couldn't trip it so i was freezing to death in this blizzard so i couldn't tell if i was having a fever because of the flu because i got covid on the parang uh 15 hour flight direct flight from manila to new york or if it's because of the johnson and johnson shot or just overall stress of traveling like i couldn't tell if i was sick with covid however thankfully my sister my sister is a doctor in new york and well actually even regardless if she's a doctor or not every household in the states is given like tons tons like tons of these uh free vaccine free antigen kits parang it's two per week i can't remember anyway two boxes per week and each box has like three so two at least for this one i was antigen testing every day but yeah i was i was still scared nevertheless you never know like baka it's not showing up or whatever um yes ph could never compete with that also actually actually one of the things that i really recommend like hindi na ninyin hindi na hindi na uso kasi yung anin yung like if you want to give like the greatest pasalubong ever like if you're gonna go to singapore the states man what you call the greatest pasalubong ever is antigen test okay kasi like i don't know parang medyo mahal parin yung antigen test kits here like like i saw online at 350 per like per test strip that's crazy that's crazy expensive like just get na lang abroad and bring home na lang for your friends okay and also if you're from the states if you have relatives in the states tell them to drop by their local library the local library gives out free wax uh free anin free antigen test kits in the states so go america next question is okay so airline tickets best way to rebook so i actually had to i came back from spain just two weeks ago and i actually was supposed to come back earlier but i had to extend for personal reasons and i needed to rebook my flight actually this is my very first time ever rebooking of light um and and the thing is i already prepared way back in january okay how do i rebook my flight just in case mangyare so i took back in january i took um i took pal from manila to jfk new york and i asked the pal office hey you know what if i have what if something happens and i need to rebook my my return flight uh and then she was like ah sir you need to call you need to call like i'm like i'm not going to do a long distance call so no way uh if you have a family member in manila or in the philippines you can actually give them an authorization letter in advance in advance to transact for you so that you can message your family member and be like can you go over to the pal office and rebook my flight so for so and so and so you save so much money you don't need to do a long distance call wala kang anxiety that it's not being acted upon and there's no anxiety about getting a crazy rate because i always think that in person or on the phone parang mas legit meansan talaga yung rate and i'll talk about that next so number two is if you're flying etihad airways the etihad airways website has list of all the phone numbers of where you are now i actually flew etihad airways from europe from spain to manila around trip problema i need to rebook grabe grabe yung rebooking rebooking cost was like $2,000 like for one way but i bought a round trip ticket so like whoa $2,000 for rebooking so i was i mean joan yun grabe yung anxiety atak na yun dude grabe oh my god that's like i didn't know what to do parang i was stone faced when i was looking online at the rebooking fee so was very depressing for a long time so what i did lang was i called the spain office of etihad and then i said hey you know they're telling me it's $2,000 to rebook my one way my return flight home and they're like oh you know that's not the good rate i'm like what do you mean that's not the good rate aren't you guys on the same team you know your website and then siya naman yung aning the girl on the phone was like oh yeah but we cannot show the best rates online i don't know that's what she said of course in my mind it should be the same so she was able to rebook my flight for $100 that's better than $2,000 i was so happy and how the process went was i had to give i had to dictate my credit card on the phone of course they turned off the recording part during the dictating part but it's really weird to say your whole credit card number and then your verification code on the phone but etihad was very professional she told me that she would wait for me to receive the confirmation email para it's more legit above board so $100 over $2,200 usually because i'm off the belief that online is always safer than going to a travel age it's always cheaper because you don't need to pay another person so i was really comfortable i was using the etihad app for $2,000 anyway etihad this is my feedback to you yo you gotta sync your what the human office has and what your online rates are come on don't scare me like that sometimes rebooking is more expensive than buying a new ticket itself that's what i thought also but i got lucky with that and after that i have a cousin who was with me in Spain he was flying Qatar and he didn't have any problem rebooking in fact when he rebooked his flight for later may refund may refund i think he has like $20 refund because the fare was cheaper when he rebooked for a further date so i spent $100 he got $20 back well you know still it's better than paying $2,000 but yeah what i'm saying is just throw the book at them okay go to the local office call them and 3 use the app i was able to call the local office at they had areas in Spain because i got a i got a data sim that also had some load so super very important get a sim card wherever you are you will save money you will save money, you'll save time especially since you're gonna have net uh eddy god lucky bear vlogs yeah it's a decent high-end PC build my gosh eric eric rey dictating credit card numbers i applied for international certification and i had to email the office my credit card details oh okay it's good to know i'm still scared usually they tell me to provide the credit card number at the verification code so that kind of thing that kind of freaked me out but wala it was the actual phone number of eddy had so i didn't feel so bad but thanks for pointing it out liya magnay sana lang it was actually a fighter jet okay next is what do we got here questions next question what is the most convenient place to get so if you are flying from manila okay i have two recommended places for PCR or antigen tests they're also in the link in the video description in addition to that i also have the google maps link so you just click that and it'll take you there and then after that there's also the link to make the reservation so there were two places that had a PCR i had to do this twice so number one in back in january when i took the PAL from manila to new york PAL has a sweet deal PAL has this exclusive PCR antigen place at gate 3 the link is in the video description and then priority ka like it's only for PAL passengers and PAL officers flight stewards the captain the airplane staff they all go there to this antigen or PCR place and essentially they give you priority if your flight is very soon so actually i felt really comfortable because i needed to get a PCR test in order to qualify to travel to the states and it had to be good for like three days or two days i keep forgetting so i was concerned na baka i won't make it and i'll miss my flight but yeah PAL prioritizes based on will prioritize will prioritize your results depending on your flight with them because it's PAL so that is a unique service i think it's still around just check na lang now at the second one is i went to a PCR place near na ia also so actually they're all very nearby this one you need to make a reservation before hand actually also need to make a reservation with PAL also by the way these are not free i have to pay for them but then what i like about the PAL one and this one drive through silan dalawa you can just go over there wait in your car no problem and parang it's the same rate or if you line up or if you get out of your car and it's open air so feel very safe so actually i'm pointing this out because you never know you never know when the variants get crazy so like right now omicron is supposed to be like lighter then delta but you never know like what if we have like a golf g variant and then your g variant is more scary and so yeah it gets good to no places na open air for antigen and PCR you never know when it'll happen so yes salute these people and they're very fast they always say that 24 hours but i usually get the results in like 10 hours so good 6 what to bring before your flight okay number one is paper always paper paper keeper this is for the actual vaccine certificates your airline ticket and then your PCR results if you need it now i know it might feel weird to say paper but i got into so much trouble in the states and in singapore because i didn't bring paper i didn't bring paper for some things because i figured but ka lang na paper and since i needed to take a PCR test 2 days before hand in order to fly to singapore back in january and um and what do you call it the piece of paper i didn't i didn't download it i didn't print it out instead i screenshoted the results they wouldn't allow me to check in so i was in JFK at the check in counter daming tao silikod ko wait let's play that video singapore plane so i'm gonna check in now so i'm just gonna sit here one of my suitcases i'll take a little longer than usual because of the vaccine traveling paper work or MDL it's like maybe 7 documents we had to collect and wanted to do this and um i'm so sorry for the lines okay so what happened there na man and JFK was i had the PCR test but i screenshoted it on my phone they refused to screenshot they said it needs to be either a paper print out or a pdf a pdf copy okay it's crazy like i screenshoted the pdf but then they wouldn't tell me why but it needed to be pdf or hard copy and then i was freaking out because what i do is i always have an album if you look at number 6e cell phone screenshot photo album so my phone has my passport my as my passport my vaccine card my yellow card you know all that stuff they're all in one photo album so that i never need to bring out the actual documents and it's convenient to have your phone out and then whatever you need to do kung my form ka you just copy and then you don't need to you already have your phone out anyway so i was comfortable and also it's sorted out na if it's in a photo album but yeah shit they were giving me a hard time so always print out print out the PCR result and also have a backup soft copy so yes i don't know why they were giving me a hard time that you refused screenshots also and then they made me go print out some papers so i had to pay extra pa at the printer there i felt cheated next is online vaccine validation if you go on if you look at the video description i gave links for the online vaccine validation for people traveling to spain people traveling to singapore so you can actually have your vaccine approved beforehand for singapore through this website i'm actually encountering a little problem right now because it's not accepting my DOH VAC cert so far right now Singapore is accepting only VAC cert from DOH for automated but then there's like an asterisk that you can actually use other forms of proof of vaccines vaccine but you need to present it at immigration ahawa naman, i like things planchado na so it kind of makes me concerned that it's not ready yet so i'm having DOH expedite what happened to my card and also they're not accepting my BOQ but anyway the links are there in the video description i hope it helps at spain alakohan nyo ninyong spain app like they really don't care like if you try to apply for their qr code that you got vaccinated they never even ask you to submit a copy of any kind of vaccine certificate they let you generate that qr code purely based on your good word which by the way i don't know man i don't believe i don't trust people people in general easy access disinfectant bag let me show you what i mean oh no i didn't video it but yeah i have a small bag that contains extra masks and these little capsule things this contains alcohol, moisturizer like i have 5 different kinds of capsules these are very cheap you can get them off shoppy for like 7 pesos a pop very handy when you want to disinfect and you don't have time to go to the bathroom this is how crazy i am with covid like i'm scared about going to the bathroom sometimes because there are lots of studies that you can inhale covid through onion through the toilet through the sewage and so man do i really want to risk that so yeah sometimes i don't i'd rather just alcohol my hands right then and there okay back to the questions alright okay what was it like traveling to the united states during the height of the global omicron pandemic in january so i think our first picture is yon yeah you know driver ko yeah so onion anton drove me to the airport i was freaked out so i'm wearing my n95 mask here and essentially it's a really hardcore mask let me show you what i mean it took me a while to perfect putting it on let me demonstrate you with a spare one okay hold on a second here i'll show you how i put on my mask okay so the so there are actually four straps here you can by the way this is i also have a link in the video description also on where to get these medical grade masks again i'm not like a doctor or anything like that but i've ever you're curious and they seem legit naman because you can look up the individual codes let's put my brother here so actually there are a lot of videos on youtube tutoring you how to put on these masks but really quickly so with one hand make sure you have a clean hand you put it straight here move your glasses trust me and then one strap over on top and then the other one down here and then you want to make sure that each strap is not folded on one another and then you press down to be honest it's really difficult to breathe in this it's super difficult to breathe in it but as someone who has been on the longest plane ride in beginnings book world records which i did which was JFK to Singapore which was on it 20 hours straight and i never got covid okay so during this entire covid era from 2019 until today i haven't gotten covid at all i'm not showing off most probably i'm going to get it because i can't be that lucky all the time but obviously i must be doing something right somewhere or at least i'm improving the odds against getting it and i'm all about saving money okay saving money and also not getting long covid so i wear the hardcore N95 masks for the plane and that's because we're just around many people and i really do believe it provides a superior kind of protection as opposed to regular KN95s but it's just so painful to the ears it's very painful here this is what i mean oh and by the way before no i didn't i didn't i didn't prepare that video sign there was a video of me spraying alcohol on every part of the chair and then i had like tissue and then i was wiping on each side like yung food tray like i'm sure covid's everywhere because i remember seeing a video i don't know if it's legit but there was a guy who used an antigen test kit he swabbed his chair okay like he swabbed the inner areas and he checked he checked he checked for covid and then i felt like being positive so i mean it's just disgusting like i mean like i mean like now i can't ride a plane anymore without alcoholing my seat belt alcoholing the food tray i mean oh yeah and lucky bear vlog points out na match your healthcare workers front lines wearing those everyday respect do super respect to our healthcare workers even during the height of the pandemic they didn't even have proper masks they didn't even have like the only reason as to why i'm wearing this now is because there's a surplus supply now like there's a lot there's enough for everybody i would not have gotten this if it would have endangered our own healthcare workers but thankfully there's enough masks for everyone and you know as someone who i don't want to burden anyone i don't want to burden family if i'm visiting family i don't want to burden another hospital if i get sick so that's why i'm trying to make all these precautions but yeah the n95 mask uses four straps and it's very tight it's super tight it's even tighter pa than the kn95 and imagine wearing that for 20 hours on a plane grab it to this day mind you i have changed already when it comes to going out and stuff like i'm okay with now wearing no mask restaurant or even in spain in spain grab it no one's wearing a mask there at all everyone's just walking around without a mask so i'm okay with that but on a plane on a plane i will always use the most heavy duty mask and that is the best we've got right now so far okay next okay alright so this is me this is me i had just taken my i think this is a day after this is two days after my booster shot in new york and i'm wearing a kn95 mask and the blizzard is just about to happen so yeah i'm a bit of a weirdo here in new york my friend is during january there were still a lot of people wearing masks especially on the subway puno yan in walking outside i would say it was maybe 30% of people wearing masks and the other remaining 17 no and i felt comfortable i felt safe i didn't feel safe in the cab in the uber ride from the airport to my airbnb mayan yan my quarantine area because my uber driver wasn't wearing a mask he didn't believe omicron was real he didn't believe in the vaccines these vaccine companies just here take our money and then he asked me what do you do in the philipines i was like oh i'm a tech youtuber and i'm a lawyer and then he's like oh you know i have a i have a i was against me by my wife she's saying that i beat her up i'm like too much information just drop me off i get my mom i was like just drop me off and why are you not wearing a mask here's a guy talking about how he's saying he does not beat up his wife and he's asking me for what kind of defenses he can give for domestic battery and two it's not wearing a mask so and then this was like late at night i still had that n95 mask was really killing my ears tadaga but yeah i persevered next is uh oh yeah this is me in central park you know one thing that i must say that i realize but wearing a mask is when you're abroad and it's cold it actually adds warmth that's the one that's the only time that i said oh hey actually it's kind of handy uh of course it's kind of painful put in sa ears over time but it adds warmth it's really cold problem lang is panang water also sort of ends up inside the mask so it gets kind of damp in there even though you're a little bit warm so you can't use it afterwards i hate using masks that are wet so like if you sneeze in it or if it gets wet oh my god tapo na yan man it's yeah alright oh so this is a this is um this is what you call that rinseware about um saving money uh one thing that i really practiced my best at other than at during covid other than of course you know youtubeing this is a whole new skill set by the way was i really upped my cooking game and one way to save money especially if you're forced to quarantine before you get to hang out is is shop and cook your own food man like i'm telling you like i'm not even i'm not even a chef okay i have zero background as a chef i do like to eat and then there's some super super easy duper recipes and then if you're in a country that has great ingredients like if you're in new york my god you got like really great ingredients for super cheap this is what you call this is a porter house steak that's good this is a porter house steak from oh my god like it was like i probably paid only in pesos i think that only amounted to like maybe 800 no no i don't think it was 800 like i remember being like 70 dollars no no no i remember in my mind it was only 700 pesos for that gigantic thick steak and then it was very well marbled pa grave so essentially what i'm saying is you can save money when you travel especially during omicron and you're forced to quarantine elsewhere is go and cook your own food and enjoy the fact that some ingredients in other countries are cheaper like if you're going to go to spain get the get get tapas stuff it's it's uber cheap and it's delicious and you save out and ahaw i'm now not a believer in steak houses unless it's unless it's very special like i've just sort of like in my mind mastered steak already from my palate so i don't want to spend money there so i'm all about saving money and getting more out of it so damn make your own for 700 pesos to get a steak like you cannot get a steak like that in a restaurant for 700 pesos like you probably get if you go to mamu you'll have a steak that's thinner less marbling and then they'll get the flavor from throwing in a lot of butter house of minis is great that's a lot of gravy as a different kind of steak they carry the flavor with gravy style those are good times also like gravy but if you want to do gordon ramsey butter on steak thing with garlic yeah good stuff next very handy gadgets is bring your ipad and bring your hdd if you're going to be there for a long time a hard drive is really important and what i learned pala is so if you have videos like me i have a lot of videos on my hard drive like if i wanted to make a video abroad i always brought my hard drive and this this is a very very handy tool this is a usb a to usb c oh yeah tomahawk steak is life hi mark louis what's up okay usb c allows you to connect it to the latest ipad and then you can stick in your hard drive there and apparently it's able to read so if you have documents on your ipad or videos on your ipad then yeah it's awesome too i know it's kind of weird to say oh my god you can actually check out content on an ipad windows laptop has been doing that since we were in grade school or high school at least it's another option a kindle is super handy because we live in an age of pandemic so paper is i don't know it's kind of weird to bring a paperback book around in the airport i mean it just gets kind of dirty kindle because you can just wipe it down with a microphone with a microfiber cloth and then just like my cellphone like i was wiping down my phone and my kindle and i felt safe even though the studies showcase that it's very rare or unlikely for you to get covid by you touching your face your eyes or putting your mouth or something like that but nevertheless i still feel better we've just reached the point where i really wanted to be extra safe so i'll call my electronics any particular usb a to usb c you can recommend karla s i think i put it in the video description if i didn't i'll put it in later however i got this off shopping for 30 pesos or 50 pesos no specific brand you don't need anything hardcore for it remandan hyping up i know right apple does good stuff in other things but then they're backwards with other things yeah i know we have to beg for some stuff dji gimbal so i was thinking of traveling with my fuji film xs 10 which is what we're using which i'm using the camera for now but it's really bulky and then i'm scared about the battery since it's a battery it should be, is it allowed to be checked what? it's crazy, so anyway i just use my s21 ultra and then i use the dji gimbal it's really really good and well see for instance you can ask ravigen ravigen has a better phone pangay as the s22 ultra but yeah the s21 ultra has still a fantastic camera actually all my footage is from my s21 in fact my video which is coming out tomorrow is a rear review of the s21 ultra 18 months i think more na, 18 months later or a year and a half later and it's a ripe time for people to make to consider it because you were in between the s23 ultra and we're still in s22 ultra lucky bear, i don't mind being called oay by other people when spraying alcohol at my stuff at my hand especially when i'm outside worth it, yeah i totally agree lucky bear i mean like people shouldn't judge you just because you want to make sure you're safe for yourself as well as you know other people i mean you do your own that you say in esgs okay i'll take you up on that offer ravigen next is height of global omicron pandemic singapore, okay oh wait did they do that i haven't done the let's go back track i didn't show you guys the video of New York City so first time out i'm gonna go to Costco to get some food supplies actually quite a actually quite a nice sunny blue day here in Queens oh just waiting for my uber right now but shit it's a lot different from jeez it's like negative 5 Celsius here right now right so it's not so bad and then um this was actually my first time traveling since the start of omicron since the pandemic completely and so can i just say that it was really emotionally gratifying to to be to see a different country for the first time in several years like when i saw this scene from the plane here let me show you i was really in shock like i not i'm in shock but i just it was very difficult to believe that i was looking at a different country because i was i was really stuck at home for three years like i didn't even i didn't even go to tagay tai i think the furthest i ever went was was alabang there we go for three years and so the transition from going nowhere to somewhere so far and then i just couldn't wrap my head around that i was looking at a different city and so that was me looking at new york and then i hope i could i could convey some of the emotion that i felt uh it was a very unreal feeling like it felt like i was traveling for the first time in my life and alright it's i guess covid creates an humbling experience that all of us are first time travelers again after this whole pandemic and it gives that really unique feeling okay next question is i think it's say ay next is singapore na alright height of global omicron pandemic singapore so what happened in singapore was crazy stuff first of uh they needed a pc artist and you know new york grabia they have like all these free pcr i mean free antigena free pcr test these are my pictures by the way i just put it all together imagine in new york zero cost free co and then like just outside like i really wanted i really super duper wanted to get a free pcr test but the problem is there was no guarantee that the pcr result would come out in time for my flight i ended up booking seven different kinds of pcr centers i don't know as backups because i didn't want to miss my flight and then my god parang $120 yung binyaran ko para pcr test to go to singapore and then it was so painful to give up so much money when there was so much free stuff but what do you want that do you want a sure deal na mahal or a free deal but you might lose it all so ah it was very painful and i ended up getting na lang yan paying for it but yeah i mean grave i mean i'm not an american but people in the states are complaining always about how restrictive things are but compared to back home here in the philippines where this is a luxury right here i feel like sometimes they take for granted what they get i mean free anti-gen test kits and free pcr tests damn okay so to go to sing to go to singapore in january you need na to apply for a vtl pass a vaccine travel pass i was actually rejected so there was a point in time in which i wasn't allowed to fly back i wasn't allowed to fly and that was my return trip my return trip home was to take pal was to take pal from singapore back home afterwards so ah it was very painful to get a rejection notice from the singapore government and i was like why i followed all the rules i got a johnson johnson shot i waited 2 weeks there i made it sure it was like 18 days but it's not ni sobrang sagad it told me to to appeal by the way if you are planning to go to singapore you don't need to do this anymore it just happened that i traveled during when it was one of the most restrictive periods ever to travel to singapore seeing these stuff now reminds me of the effort i put in to get there so i was really depressed oh my god i put all this effort i can't even get there and then finally i i appealed and then yeah boom i got the vaccine travel pass i was super psyched it's kind of ridiculous that there was so much effort it was more difficult getting all these papers and more anxiety than getting a regular visa we're visa free to singapore but getting all these paperwork just to approve to even allow to fly there regardless it was scary and when i got this form despite the fact i mean when i got rejected number one i was devastated so i didn't know what to do was i gonna rebook my flight cancel singapore airlines flight or what thankfully next day when i appealed i don't know why all of a sudden i got accepted but thank you Singapore but yeah it's crazy like right now it's so easy to travel to Singapore and before all this covid stuff this is like a 2 hour flight and here it's like parallel universes so when i actually i carless no i'm sorry this is not reason this was january this is february but now to go to singapore you don't need this vaccine travel pass anymore you just need your qr code you just need your vaccine doh vaccine and then you just need to fill up a form but yeah it's don't worry it's a lot easier oh yeah kaiser i'm really missing japan damn japanese anyway so when i finally got to travel to singapore i was really happy so i showed you guys what it was like seeing new york from the sky and i saw this when i was about to land in singapore actually it was a very powerful image to see the juxtapose new york footage and then the singapore footage because singapore is really known for having an excellent harbor like they have a great harbor and it's very important for their trade and i knew we were when i saw all those ships docked out and all the effort to get there it's very nice to the americans even though they're kind of an in they're so liberal that there's hardly any requirements that they block in order for you to get there but for singapore men when they were terrified so seeing that sight of the ships really made me feel wow damn i'm thankful i was able to get that far when i landed i needed to get a second pcr test i need to pay for two pcr tests one, three days before i traveled and two, to get a pcr test when i arrived on the airport so far so good everyone needs to take a swamp test here and the thing is i actually had to wait for the pcr test at the time of my hotel i wasn't allowed to leave my room and i wasn't given a hotel key card so if i left my hotel room they would report me to the police and they would know that i left without finding out my pcr test results first so singapore was really really strict and so i had to wait for the pcr test result before i was even allowed to leave my hotel room so i was imprisoned in my hotel room for supposedly a day pcr test results came out six hours later so i was able to walk around but yeah, it's scary that you're not allowed and then i had to ask i had to verify with the hotel if they were allowed to carry passengers from work or stay at home and i needed to book the night before i couldn't wait in the lobby for early check in i needed to book a whole different night just so i could early check in because i wasn't allowed to stay in the liya magnai the penalty is you go to jail there's jail time and there's a very hefty large cash fee so it was a crime so yeah, i'm not joking they can google it there was a couple a british and a singapore woman i'm not sure basa, there was a couple in which case they both left their quarantine rooms because they missed each other and it was parang their honeymoon and they just kept going back and forth and they got caught on the cctv and then mula there was a prison sentence of 10 days or so, look it up but definitely, it's a crime so it's no joke man, no joke it's crazy oh yeah, vaccine child pass so this is me again wearing the N95 mask in JFK before i flew out still scary at the time hi david god, i'm seeing you this is me already in Singapore i had to switch from winter wear to back to tropics wear here i'm already enjoying the great outdoors i had a great tour guide great bike oh yeah guys sir meanwhile at quarantine what ever happened to publish on girl i don't know what ever happened to her na kasuhan siya along with her parents but i don't know what happened afterwards thankfully in Singapore even then they were very liberal when it came to exercise so if you wanted to exercise, you didn't need to wear the mask so i was like oh my gosh thank goodness even here, pano you need to wear a mask what the pack for travel oh by the way liquid this is what i saw in Singapore hi, our fellow from hargra sugar here checking out the arbor in boogis singapore so wait, let me show you i have a video prepared of the Singapore train system yeah, Singapore is like i think once you get in you're pretty much okay now but actually the scary part was back in february there were still stories that if you got covid the government might actually pick you up from your hotel and force you into a hospital or anion or a quarantine zone a quarantine building and there were stories about different national different travelers being forced into say into a different room so like strangers being paired up in one or two bedrooms together they don't know each other they have covid, they had to quarantine so those were horror stories i wanted to avoid, so again that's why i tried my very best to not get covid because i didn't want to be forced out of my hotel room which was rather expensive so i could be forced to stay in another second-rate place with a stranger so yeah, save money and save hassle by avoiding getting covid wear the masks man alright, i'm about almost done here so what's the pack for travel? so masks my n95 masks are in this philips hue box because the box that comes with the 3M it sucks man it sucks, there's like no protection or whatever, i mean like this cannot survive inside your bag so get a hard get a hard oh shit, sorry dropped my water get a hard plastic box where you can put maybe 5 n95 masks put it in your backpack there we go, you're set and then for the k n95 masks since they're a lot lighter it's the problem with the actual n95 mask it's very rigid look oh it's like that as opposed to the n95 masks, they're flat this one talaga you cannot distort it thanks for crying so there's no way to flex this so yeah, use one of these boxes so that the mask isn't being degraded otherwise saan yung panayaran mo next is alcohol bring alcohol, put it in these little bottles put this in your pocket or put it in a small bag which can reach microfiber cloth i-microfibered alcohol my cellphone and my kindle and my ipad at that time maybe like 3 times a day now i don't do this anymore but sometimes i do it especially after a long flight nandadiri lang ako very handy sleep mask is super handy tissue to wipe your airplane tray disgusting your seat belt wipe it with alcohol man just alcohol that stuff use your rtx gpu good masks to flex i would liya magnayak so minyong malaki yung gpu card box ko e sobrang laki e hindi siya ka siya sa backpack ko so yeah that's why i got i use the philips yukas this one fits in a backpack and then no paper books because come on right resistance bands so before i left the states i went to amazon and i got these resistance bands i let the other parts to my mom but yeah like you know i'm a convert like i just bring these bands and then i can already do weight lifting in my hotel room wherever and they're really light and then you can like there are 50 pounds it goes as low as 10 and then i thought you can combine all of them together you can combine them together this one is 50 and 40 together it becomes like a 90 pound dumbbell so yeah resistance bands they're cheap you won't need to feel the urge if you like to work out you won't feel the urge to risk yourself by going to a gym and then if you want to do cart you just run outside but yeah resistance bands are super super super super helpful and i think it's really helpful that you i've been scared of them snapping while i'm using them the ones that i bought on choppy snap and then after that the metal began flinging around like it was some sort of bullet so yeah you're right you're right to be worried however if you get quality stuff well an amazon well stuff like this is well worth importing from abroad if you it's the handle the handle is most important you need to make sure that it's super super strong metal otherwise handle the break off but yeah i'm really lucky these bands are great i'll leave the link in the video description i don't think i put them in yet but yeah resistance bands awesome stuff lightweight allow you to do almost practically any workout na weighted exercise and you don't need to go to a gym save money dude come on medication and pain killers always make sure you have your own meds i actually had a problem recently a month ago i was in spain i didn't intend to stay that long and i ran out of hypertension medication and i was scared that i wouldn't be able to get i wouldn't be able to have my hypertension meds for like a whole another month thankfully i was able to beg from the pharmacy to allow me to get hypertension meds without a prescription but i had to kind of like talk talk pa so yeah make sure you bring your medication pain killers bring for good for one month if you're gonna there for one month make sure you bring for two months you never know like if you get covid there and you have to stay on and you know and you don't have a prescription you won't be able to get it there actually i would say na bring good for three months just to be on the safe side what can you recommend on brand to use for trolley bag trolley i believe you know i have never bought one i've never bought from muji but muji is light weight hard and it's hard it's hardcore and it's a trusted brand when it comes to furniture ah furniture for luggage meanaman i have i have an old i have an old samsonite trolley bag that's what i use thanks for the question nektar gaming alright next is june relax pandemic travel to spain so traveling to spain i left for spain june i got back end of july so like mga june 6 until july 28 i think and jano it was super relaxing there everyone was like maskless and i think that was the most comfortable i've been in because i didn't care if i got covid there because i was there for such a long time what do i have na i was pain here here's a clip from barcelona i i really like every place has their own thing like steak is for the states get steak from the supermarket you can't go wrong in singapore just go to a hawker center you don't need to cook and it's cheaper than cooking uh spain the beer is great i don't know but all of a sudden like i'm a real big fan of estrella beer and um three euro wine like my gosh three euro wine or two euro wine is wonderful stuff that's a hundred pesos or like a hundred twenty pesos or a whole bottle of wine uh yeah i i really like enjoy drinking in spain and then everyone was just so relaxed there and then parang may pakusnuti sa barcelona but i was i i also went to valencia everyone in valencia were so nice like super duper nice like like definitely i'm asian and i'm you know sometimes i'm wearing a mask i never felt uh uncomfortable there and they were never snooty and i was there for like two weeks in valencia valencia is known for oh wait this is actually barcelona this is uh the park gill um and it's over it's on a hill so it's overlooking you can see lots of barcelona i also went on a i did a hike i did a hike trail to mont sarat uh yeah here i'm not wearing masks anymore uh this is me in valencia oh man it's great walking around without a mask oh yeah and here so yeah because i sort of became a semi-alcoholic like i really love beer now and it needs to foam okay like if you're gonna pour a san miguel you make sure you get some of that foam on top okay because the first the first sip needs to be deep so you get you get that foam and you get that richness okay you need to it's great stuff oh and uh valencia is the home place they say is the place where paella was born so in all of spain daw galing yung paella from valencia this particular city so i think i i'm palyed out like i think i had paella like maybe like 10 times maybe 12 times already so i've tried them all apparently the legitimate kind of paella it's more rice it's more rice than laman okay and they like it kind of wet because dito i was always accustomed that paella should be moist but not wet and it should have that shame bottom because that's where all the oil from the other meat just leaks in but here i think they call it tutong there's not so much tutong here in spain like it's not like an important thing and you guys kind of on the wet side sometimes it's not soupy but it's more wet than here it's good but like sometimes i'm you know i'm craving in asana asana they have some chorizo in it or asana they was more chicken but yeah when you ask for paella like the main course really is the rice the flavored rice and then kontin lang yung yung ula but yeah so i learned a lot what else i got oh no we're done i think i have one last video oh yeah so i went home so i got home two weeks ago and this is what i saw when i got home okay so i'm not gonna see that guy who says that you know why are we like that but i'm just gonna say that okay guys at naia all right we were made to line up for the vaccine app thing there's an app that the philippines has trace trace something it's a trace something and uh no one uses it okay and we're forced to check in like we cannot fly from anywhere we are back home without doing this app thing okay and i'm all in favor of the app thing but it's there's a lot of redundancy okay with this app thing number one when we do land naman no one checks it why make us do something that you're not gonna check i mean that you're not going to anyan you're not gonna actually make us use the qr code uh land naman people were checking it but then if it's supposed to make things faster how come it's not faster panang we we were made to queue up together and band together panang we're just sharing our covid stuff like panang it's better we just get out there faster as opposed to just you know gunon gunon we're all holed up together uh like it's ultimately self defeating because you put there in the app thing to fly home to the philippines your seat number on your plane if you check if you haven't checked in yet sometimes you don't even know your seat number and then how can you check in i sorry i mean how can you essentially sometimes you can't even you can't even do that wax thing without giving without first putting your seat number and you don't get that unless you're fully checked in sometimes you can only check in 24 hours or two days beforehand so it's one thing that you need to keep worrying about to do and then also when you land um what's the point of giving your seat number if you're packaged together with like maybe 300 people it doesn't matter anymore where i'm seated i could have gotten it from someone from a different flight altogether because we all just come in together and commingle our germs so yeah i think it's actually a safety hazard to queue up everyone in the year like in that manner and yun nga i mean you might need to rethink it and also just in case one of us has COVID nga everyone is doing anti-gen tests already at home and this is not reported on the DOH um COVID case list anyway so yun nga when you land at Naia you're creating a bigger opportunity for people to actually get sick and in the end you're not going to trace them anyway because they're not going to take the PCR so why don't we just avoid altogether the death trap let's avoid the death trap and then so we can all go home and be happy and marry i mean i'm all in favor if we're actually tracing but i don't think we actually have the manpower to trace anymore people so yeah okay so i was streaming for an hour and 30 minutes and i forgot as there's one thing i forgot to do oh gamitan lang awing ko para makakuhapan ng discounts kaya kung nagahalap ka ng legit mura at
