At least not the kind of long travels where you spend months or a year in a foreign country or out of town. It is physically impossible. Unless your company sends you on a business trip, and that's not counted. If you're stuck to a desk and your vacation days are limited, you can say goodbye to ever having long travels. But having an office job doesn't mean you can't dream of getting away from time to time. Because, you definitely can!

I've been to Australia thrice, and I've always been meaning to write this post as I know a lot of you are wanting to know how to get an Australian Tourist Visa from the Philippines. So here it is.

DISCLAIMER:

This post will focus primarily on how to submit an application online as I've never experienced going through VFS Global. Also, this post rely heavily on my own experience of applying for a tourist visa. I am not an immigration expert, I'm merely someone who wants to share the process I had gone through when I submitted my own application.

One thing I don't like about traveling is the logistics involved. All that planning! Which hotel should I book? Which airline should I use? How much money should I bring? And dun dun dun dun, how do I friggin' get a visa?! It's such a daunting task that sometimes, I wish I could just magically transport myself to another country without having to go through all the hassle. But such is a traveler's life, and if a girl wants to travel, a girl's gotta get that visa.
