Graham,

I feel it is really a great accomplishment to process the visa alone. (after getting all the stuff sorted out) It's INDEPENDENCE as I see it... I also feel that everything is in order once I do things myself, and once it fails, the blame is on me, not on somebody else.

I gathered all my documents alone, without the aid of a travel agency or someone (it's nice queuing...) I booked my own flight and hotel myself. and even gambled flying alone for the very first time! additional point to CONFIDENCE...hahaha!

Good for you because you have all the luxury of time to be in Philippines while the visa in on process...

Regards,
