    Revenge Travel: Winter in Seoul 2022

    Revenge travel is a thing nowadays especially after being stuck at home for more than two years. As the world slowly opens, more and more places are becoming hotspots for revenge travel. One of which is South Korea. Last October, South Korea recently lifted its COVID-19 testing requirement making it an easy decision to come back and spend winter in Seoul.

    As long as you have a visa and have registered for Q-Code, you can enter South Korea. However, getting a visa is still not that easy. Visa appointment schedules are always almost full and I’m the only one that was granted a multiple visit visa in my family. I will not get into the nitty gritty of visa applications kasi di ko din naman alam. Haha! I’m just saying that getting a visa is not as easy as before so allot more time and manage your expectations.

    Here’s my Seoul Winter 2022 itinerary. Baka lang ma-inspire kayo with my outfit and poses. char!

  • 2015 Year in Review

    2015 Year in Review

    2015 was Amiciness’ debut year after expanding out from Tumblr. Honestly, I didn’t expect the blog to grow as fast as it did. After 525,600 minutes, the blog gained a couple of sponsors, 170 likes in Facebook, over 80,000 page views and almost 40,000 unique visitors. This blog is my “baby” project. Since blogs became a thing, I have always wanted to have my own and I have always been a frustrated writer. For some reason, I forgot to fulfil this dream. Maybe I felt that I was not ready or I could not sustain it because of school and eventually my day job. Finally, I decided to do it and commit. You won’t know if you’re ready for something unless you’d tried. This is Amiciness’ 2015 Year in Review.

    Let’s go down memory lane!
