My Metro Lifestyle

Travel planning is both fun and challenging. Getting cheap airline tickets is now possible as long as you book early. Budget airlines have been offering really low fares. A few months ago, we were able to score roundtrip tickets to Japan for approximately $50 per person. Thus, we're so excited to visit Tokyo Disneyland, eat chankonabe ,  have a glimpse of the majestic Mt. Fuji and even take a ride in shinkansen .  Hotel accommodation is another story. We don't really go for the cheapest. Instead, we make sure that it's adequate, safe and comfortable. Since this will be our first time to visit, we really do not have any idea where to stay. This is why we're very happy to discover Fish & Tips.  Fish & Tips is the most detailed and comprehensive hotel review website. It features 300+ real hotel lodging experience articles in Japan including luxury hotels. It covers the different features and important details that every traveler wishes to know.

Starting your own business has never been easier. Due to technological advancements and the internet, one can readily start a business with just a few steps and clicks on their computers. Some can even cater to clients abroad without setting foot in another country. For those who are into e-commerce, dropshipping has allowed business owners to sell products worth thousands of dollars without actually needing to handle the products. Doing business nowadays has a lot of possibilities.  However, no matter how easy it is to start your business, managing it is another story. A lot of small business owners tend to do everything on their own. From management, marketing and sales, social media, customer service, product sourcing, networking, and accounting tasks they only get very little help or even none at all. Most postpone hiring someone until the company gets bigger.  Here are the top 7 free applications that can help your business grow:   1.  Google Suite  - It is an a

Do you remember the special effects made by Google for Avengers: Endgame where you click the infinity gauntlet and something else happens on the screen? Well, I found it really cool and amazing.  Thus, when I found another one from the Wizard of Oz, I got excited again. So, here's how?  1. Type Wizard of Oz in the Google Search Bar.  2. Click the "red shoes" on the right side of the screen and see the magic.  3. Now, you will see a "tornado", click it too.  Well, that's it. Share this post if you had fun!  "Remember A heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others ." -The Wizard of Oz

2019 was neither the best nor a bad year for me. Technically, it was okay but I was just so surprised that it has ended so fast. Before I knew it, it was already the holidays and I realized I was not really able to accomplish something major for the entire year. I felt that I either slacked off or I had a lot of distractions. Though I had no regrets about how the year went, I promised myself that I will try to achieve more of my goals this year. I promised that I'd be more INTENTIONAL this 2020.  So, what do I mean by being intentional?  According to liveandlovework.com , being intentional means you are purposeful in word and action. It means you make thoughtful choices in life. It also means that you live a life that is meaningful and fulfilling.  In this sense, this is how I want to spend my year. I want to start making choices that are aligned with my goals and dreams. I want to make conscious decisions and here's how I plan to do it:  1. Choose th

Are you someone who gets excited during seat sales from Cebu Pacific, books a flight immediately but finds out later on that you cannot make the trip or flight because of an emergency or a sudden change of plans?  Well, I am guilty. In fact, it happened twice already.  Just like last December 2018, I was able to book roundtrip tickets from Bacolod to Davao for only Php 600+ for July 2018 (7 months in advance) but later on canceled due to workload. (boo!)  I know that it's just a small amount but getting it refunded is very much welcome. Unfortunately, the cancellation fee or the rebooking fee (if allowed) is much higher compared to the purchase price, which means it is more practical if you just forfeit the ticket and let it go.  If you are lucky, there are instances that Cebu Pacific also have sudden changes in their flight schedule or cancellations. If these cancellations are initiated from their end, this makes you eligible for a full refund of the ticket price,

They say that with progress comes heavy traffic. Though we welcome progress in our lives, my recent trip to Manila last November may say that it's worth it. After living in the province for 4 years where there's minimal to zero traffic, the experience of being stuck in EDSA during the holiday season was overwhelming. I just couldn't imagine the everyday life of an ordinary Filipino who had to go through it on a daily basis.  Thus, suggestions and potential solutions to the problem are very much welcome as this has been a recurring issue for the longest time.  Proposed Centralized and Synchronized Bus Dispatch System House Transportation Committee Chair and Samar 1st District Representative Edgar Mary Sarmiento unveiled the blueprint of his proposed centralized and synchronized bus dispatch system which would turn the EDSA's rowdy and chaotic city buses into a fast, efficient and predictable mass transport system. Sarmiento, a civil engineer, disclosed

I have been an SM Advantage cardholder for more than 5 years and I love the idea of earning rewards from my purchases. It's one of the paid loyalty cards that I find "sulit" or one that I use frequently. If I remember correctly, I paid Php 150 for a 3-year membership but now I think it's already Php 200 for a 5-year membership (needs to confirm this)  Some of the recent changes with our SMAC membership are their insurance provider which is now Pioneer Insurance. They added more accredited  stores such as Uniqlo and Miniso. Plus, just a few months ago, they have also updated the design of their card to a modern look.  Source:  https://www.facebook.com/SMAC Sadly, despite the changes and recent developments, the problem of missing SMAC points is still happening. I discovered that the majority of my November and December 2019 purchases are still not credited as of today (January 10, 2020). This is the same thing that happened when I checked my May and

We all await exciting opportunities for a fresh start and new beginnings in our personal lives and of course in our blogging community. No matter what your goals are in 2020 or how many new year’s resolutions you plan on making this year, we should always find time to celebrate and reminisce all of your experiences from 2019, whether good or bad; and welcome the new year ahead with hope and positivity.
