Hello Teacher Macs, thank you so much for this. Super excited na kami. haha :) Note lang po, bawal na raw po yung canned meat products like corned beef and sausages. See you soon po!

[@TeacherMacs]

Oo nga pala may bagong ruling. Hehe. Kasi ung bestfriend ko dumating last month, nakapgdala pa for me haha. Excited for you guys!

[@MD-mt7hx]

Hi! How about canned fish like sardines, etc.? Also, is bagoong allowed or not? Maybe someone can shed light on this. Thank you, T. Macs and Ms. Jara!

@@MD-mt7hx Impake mo at ipasuyo mo sa kapamilya mo na ipadala thru EMS.

[@JanAngelaMaravilla]

Very informative, Sec. I planned to make a video about this topic pero hanggang plano lang ako. Haha. It might also be good if they can bring some cultural items (I brought my ladies barong and some accessories). They might need it when they make culture-related lessons. Plus, it is fun to wear traditional clothes during formal school ceremonies.

[@TeacherMacs]

Thanks beh. That's what I forgot plus materials for self-intro lessons. Kaya na nila lol hehe. Go for it, upload the vlog soon! 😊

[@jaravillanueva2163]

Ms Jan, papanuorin ko pa rin kung ipopost mo. haha See you soon po. :)

Hey Teacher Mac, I'm a teacher in PAREF Southridge and an incoming (Batch 2021) ALT for the JET Programme. I've been binge watching your videos this past few weeks so that I can lessen my anxiety. I just want to thank you for all these helpful (and fun) videos keep it up.

[@TeacherMacs]

Hey, I taught at SR Afternoon School back in 2006. Stayed there til 2008. Small world! Congratulations! 😀 Kitakits!

[@MD-mt7hx]

Thank you Teacher Macs for this. Guys, can I bring canned sardines and bagoong? Please enlighten me. Thank you!

[@TeacherMacs]

may list na ibibigay ang embassy ng mga bwal. lam ko bawal na canned goods huhu

[@MD-mt7hx]

@@TeacherMacs aaaw, okay po thank you for replying (:

[@raymondgantuangco9874]

I think it's good to note the airport have liquid/gel allowances so you can't bring large quantities like shampoos, face wash, liquid soaps, and such.

[@TeacherMacs]

Yeah! Very true. 🙂 Thanks!

[@jeeannguibone1678]

Thanks so much sa tips, Teacher Macs! Lalo na sa clothes to pack. Tanong ko lang din po, how did you mentally and emotionally prepare yourself for JET, for leaving the Philippines, your family?

[@TeacherMacs]

By just having a positive mind on things. Reminding myself of the real purpose of why I'm going abroad. Aceepting the possibility of culture shock. Meet everyone and get from them the strength to move forward in this new chapter. 🙂

[@BonnieMarieJP]

Hi, teacher Macs! Can you tell more about tax certificate?

[@TeacherMacs]

[@BonnieMarieJP]

Hi, teacher Macs! Where to get it? How long will be the validity po? May fee po ba to request it po?

[@thevertravelsjapan_]

Hi Teacher Macs! How much did you spend in processing your pre-departure requirements? like paying for OFW fees and things like that?

[@TeacherMacs]

Hi, please check my other vlog. I have a detailed video about it. :) Thanks!

[@thevertravelsjapan_]

@@TeacherMacs Hi teacher Macs! Ohh thats great!! May I ask what is the title of that specific vlog? :)

[@TeacherMacs]

[@thevertravelsjapan_]

@@TeacherMacs Thank you so much, Teacher Macs!!

[@LyAn-wz6dd]

Hi Teacher! Hope you're having a good day :) just want to ask... around how much cash should we bring to Japan? I've been hearing that its necessary to bring 3-6 months worth of rent in some cases.

[@TeacherMacs]

Esid. You may want to watch my vlog re money matters, how much does it cost from application to arrival plus pocket money. Thanks

[@chipsaoi4767]
