Miss mo na ba ang amoy ng airports? Ang lasa ng foreign food? Ang feeling na #Goals or #Blessed habang naglalakwatsa? Over 1 year na tayong nganga! But have you ever wondered what it's like to travel out of the country ngayong may pandemic? Mas strict ba ang Immigration? May hostel dorms pa ba? Uso pa ba ang group tours? Anu-ano ang dapat i-prepare?

Tengga travelers Yosh and Ces invited Travel Factor founder Cedric Valera na kakauwi lang from a long multi-country trip in the Americas to share what's new, what's changed, and what to expect when backpacking internationally these days.

Please DON'T take this as an encouragement to travel. We simply aim to paint a picture of what the travel scene is like at this time. Stay safe always!
