CONTROLLED COVID 19 AT BAGUIO CITY (HOW TO TRAVEL THERE DURING PANDEMIC)

HOW TO TRAVEL TO BAGUIO (BAGUIO TRAVEL GUIDE 2021)

1. Get medical certificate at your brgy. This is not a covid test. It is just the basic medical certificate that you have no fever, cough or cold, etc. 

2. Submit the medical certificates to PNB and ask for a Travel Authority. 

3.Fill up an application form for travel  at Baguio website. You will state your travel reasons there and it is for approval. They will let you know if you can proceed to Triage

4. If you got approved, you can now go to Baguio, upon entering the city, there are 2 stopovers which I believe they call- Traiges. It is a border control, so there’s still a chance that you will not be allowed to enter. It looks like an immigration. We waited there for at least an hour each. There are facilities such as X-ray laboratory (I just learned that it is one of the ways to find out covid symptoms hehe), swab testing area etc. just in case the tourist visitor should be tested. You will have to pay for the tests. They said that swab testing is around 1,300.00 (not so sure about this), and around 300 or 500php for the X-ray.

There are 3 steps booths in every triage, but I wasn’t able to know all the  details since my brother and my sister in law was the one who completed all these :D As you know, I am pregnant and I just had to stay inside the car and look for the kids :) But I tried my best to know all the information for you, my readers who are asking about this! I hope you find these informations helpful! :)

5. Once you passed the triage, welcome to Baguio! They gave a small leaflet with reminders, and its the pass that you should show to brgy officials just in case. 

6. You also have to fill up the health declaration form in their website. So make sure you have a data! :)

 HOW TO TRAVEL SAFE AND RESPONSIBLY DURING QUARANTINE(GCQ) + ITINERARY

It's been almost a decade since we started the belief that we are one with nature. Before the lockdown has started, we are exposed to nature at least once a month. I lead and teach meditations in team buildings- and we don't travel just for recreation. We travel and expose our bodies to nature- to meditate, to reflect, and to refresh our minds. And while on the road, it's my hubby and I's chance to talk about our relationship, life, plans, and goals. And we call these an ESSENTIAL. 

1.) KNOW THE GCQ RULES & GUIDELINES. 

Belief is something that is so morale that even government rules have considerations and exemptions. It is said that "Persons aged below 21yrs, 60years and above, are not allowed to go out EXCEPT when going out for essential." As I have said, being exposed to nature is an essential for me, and my little family for almost a decade now. It's a practice for us to bathe in the sun and breath fresh air for at least once a month. And it's been 6 months already that we're locked up in the 4 corners of our cement house and I am already feeling sick. Athena's first beach trip was when she's 4 months old at Pagudpud. And she's been consistently exposed to nature at least once a month since then. And I believe that it's one factor why she's so strong and she  never get sick or confined/hospitalized. Being exposed to nature makes our immune system stronger w/c is essential to fight the corona virus.
