from Overseas F-ing Workers (OFW pod) · host Jocelyn and Paola

But she kept her cool because of her call center experience with Expedia! How bad is NAIA Terminal 2 in the Philippines and what are the worst airports for travellers?  Did she need to get a new OEC exemption from POEA?  Why she was in Manila in the first place?  Was the JoKoy Presents show worth it? Do they still check for Polio vaccines at the Jakarta Soekarno Hatta Airport? What do OFWs not miss about living in the Philippines? How does travel insurance work... realllyyyyy? Guessing what Paola would say in the episode but can't because she's on vacation in Vietnam.  And many many mooore If you were also impacted by the #TaalEruption2020 or if you just want to share your experiences in bad airports, please send us a message at: email: [email protected] ig: @ofwpod fb: @ofwpod
