A Canadian passport at last!

Finally, my Canadian passport is here! Yes, I am so thrilled! Why, blue passport = MOBILITY!


I applied for this passport in Service Canada - Passport Service in Central City in Surrey last January 25, 2019. The process was fast. There were many applicants pero marami rin namang open na servicing windows kaya mabilis lang din. After checking my documents and making me pay $160 (ten years validity), they told me that the process will take 10 business days and they will deliver it na lang daw (akala ko nga pwedeng ipick-up na lang para mabilis pero walang ganung option).


And so after the not-so-long-but-agonizing wait, we finally saw a notice in our mailbox stating that I have a package in Canada Post in London Drugs near us. Around 8:30pm na nun ng Valentine's Day. The store will close at 9pm so talagang nagmadali kami para abutan. Ayaw ko ng ipagpabukas pa haha!

Honestly, ang saya-sayang magkaroon ng "powerful" passport! Sobrang nakakakilig yung idea na hindi na ako kukuha ng visa sa kahit anong bansang gusto kong puntahan. Grabe, parang di pa rin nga ako makapaniwala na plane ticket na lang ang kailangan ko at voila, makakabiyahe na ako anywhere. Sobrang nagpapasalamat talaga ako, lalo na sa asawa ko who made this possible for me.

Yun nga lang, me blue passport na pero wala pang budget pang-travel haha! Kakabili lang namin ng bahay tapos bumili pa ng share si hubby sa company nila kaya nasimot din talaga kami sa cash hehe. Pero keri na yun, marami pa namang araw. Ang importante ay ready-to-go na ako anytime lol. At syempre, makakauwi na ako sa Pinas yebaaah!
