Each embassy has their respective policies for visa application and approval. This is especially hard for Filipinos who need to have a visa to enter almost all countries except countries belonging to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).

Last week, I just had to see a doctor with whom I can comfortably discuss my son’s throat infection. Hubby was able to set an appointment with the Pediatric Doctor from the International Health Care Center of Severance Hospital last Friday.
