就在雅思成績揭曉後一週內，
我下了突如其來的重大決定！
迅速的爬文、比較、連絡、訂機票。現在只剩這一步驟 - 申請簽證。
今日親自前往菲律賓駐澳領事館辦理，離我的住處不遠。
59天的單次進出簽證費用，台灣是合約國家 - 澳幣$54(非合約國家為澳幣$72，在駐台灣領事館申請為新台幣1200元)。
即將暫離雪梨、暫離四季飯店三個月，我會回來的！
After getting my IELTS result within one week, I made an unexpected important decision！
I was quickly surfing information on website, comparing, connecting, booking flights. Now the last step needs to be done - visa application.
Today I go to Philippine Consulate Sydney in person to apply for visa, the location is near my place.
Single entry 59 days visa fee is AUD $54 because Taiwan is one of contract countries. (No contract one is AUD $72. Applying for visa in Philippine Consulate Taiwan is NT 1200.)
I will temporarily leave Sydney and Four Seasons Hotel for three months, I'll come back！
◎Philippine Consulate Sydney Address：Level 1, Philippine Center, 27-33 Wentworth Avenue Sydney NSW 2000
◎Acceptance of Applications Time：09:00-13:00

菲律賓駐澳領事館辦理入境簽證，一日的工作時間就能領回已貼好簽證的護照。
選在台菲關係敏感的時刻進入菲律賓，實在是不愛國對吧！？
但總還是得走出去，才有機會讓更多的外國人改變偏見、認識台灣、瞭解台灣。
Apply for entry visa in Philippine Consulate Sydney, after one working day you can get back your passport with Philippine visa stamp.
I choose this sensitive moment after a conflict between Taiwan and Philippines to go to Philippines, seem unpatriotic, right !?
But we still have to go out of it, go abroad. Then we have chances to change foreigners' biases and make them know Taiwan, understand Taiwan.
