    If you already have a US visa, you can travel to Canada via eTA (by air lang, can't travel by land from US to Canada with eTA).

    I agree, shopping is better in the US and cheaper too. However, Canada has its own brands that you might prefer, like Lululemon.

    Mahal lahat sa US, and no tax refund.

    For shopping, go to Europe, and Japan while the yen is cheap.

    Ano ba ok na US brands?

    Tommy and RL ang kakapal ng tela, hindi bagay sa weather ng Pinas.
    Bags naman, better to buy EU brands, mas may resale value pa if ibenta in the future.

    Apple products, mas mura pa sa Japan and some EU countries kesa sa US, unless siguro you buy from tax free states.

    Good idea Cathy, that is the plan. However, shopping, and cost is not an issue to me

    especially san franSICKo

    ang gusto ko lang sa US maraming consumer products. harbor freight etc. punta ka lang amazon andaming options ng winch na wala dito. fill up balikbayan boxes before you leave

    even aliexpress will deliver right to your doorstep. tapos iiwan lang nila sa labas hehe

    you can skip all the BS places like vegas and hollywood, and skip all the stupid theme parks. concentrate ka sa mga natural wonders like grand canyon, bryce canyon, yosemite, yellowstone (the geysers etc), zion national park, grand teton national park. also worth going to hoover dam

    sa san francisco, skip fisherman's wharf hehe, too touristy. lombard street is also touristy. pero ok yung flowers conservatory. but there's a submarine you can enter at fisherman's wharf. if you like those old warships meron din isa dun sa alameda, USS hornet i think which fought in leyte

    If you will use ETA to enter Canada, it needs to by air. Not sure if this applies for flights from the US.

    We already have a Canada ETA, yes if entering by air.

    We already have a USA ESTA.

    Ang bilis ng ETA no? Less than 10min lang may email na.
