      You both smart beautiful ladies, found your channel today, I love Asia but yet to visit the Philippines, I usually rent a inexpensive place by the beach ⛱️ where I like to surf 🏄‍♂️ any recommendations

    When I visited the Philippines last November, I rented condominium apartments via Air BnB. It cost some money, but it was worth it because the tap water was safer to brush my teeth with. I did make sure, at the behest of my fiancee, to buy water from the grocery store. I also learned the hard way never to forget wet toilet wipes when using a public restroom. Jollibee is now one of my favorite fast food chains, ha ha! I had eaten sisig and pancit prior to visiting, so having it while there was even better!

    Extend your Visa at the airport when you arrive.. on the 3rd floor @ the top of escalators turn left.. it only takes 10 minutes. Around 3000 peso for 30 extra days... This includes the expedited service fee.😅
    Simple. Fast & Finished for 60 days !❤

    Thank you kitten, great info, one thing they need to do at NAIA is MORE FX counters, I had to queue for over 2 hours last time (Huge crowd from the flight)!!! So, until they fix this allow 4 hour buffer between flights or you will miss it!!!!

    When one of the legs of your flight to the Philippines is long (12-16 hour), pay for an aisle seat on the plane. Otherwise you'll be asking your seatmates to get up and let you out all the time to stretch your legs and/or go to the bathroom. Trust me, the seats are NOT comfortable enough to sit in for that long of a period of time, so you will want to get up and walk around the plane several times during the flight. Also, even though it is warm in the Philippines, the long flights tend to be FREEZING cold inside the plane. Wear a comfortable hoodie, long pants, and socks and shoes, or you will need to wrap yourself up in a couple of airline blankets.

    Do not go to Borocay period it’s way overrated, Philippines are wonderful 7600 plus some islands and borocay is is a tourist trap, I speak from personal experience having to live in borocay for 3 years I know what I’m talking about.
    If you want same island beach experience there is places like Bantayan island, butuan, malapascua island and thousands more and there is much less tourists and prices are same with any other islands.

    • @Phenomenal36
      @Phenomenal36 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Agreed. Get the same experience and most of the time better somewhere else for a 1/4 or half the price

    • @Man-In-The-Home-Stretch
      @Man-In-The-Home-Stretch 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Same with Alona Beach in Panglao. Whenever I went for a walk, I was accosted every 15 seconds by kids trying to sing to me for money, massage therapists wanting me to come get a massage, people trying to put restaurant menus and dive tour brochures into my hand, and people trying to sell me jewelry or sunglasses. There is not a moment's peace from them!
