You are correct but I belong to CRT to support the site and its invaluable information, not so much for the discounts. The CRT site like here also has great info about mongering venues around the...

Ain't that the truth. I practically lived here in the late nineties. The USD / CDN exchange rate was very favorable. Plus prices in general (escorts, air fare and hotels) were more than reasonable....

Not that you should care what I think but I must say your taste in chicas has dramatically improved. These all looked top shelf to me.

I stayed back in March for ten days. I pretty much agree with Gogobarlover's assessment. I like to travel cheap and the Diplomat fit the bill. My room was cleaned daily and 15.6" screen laptop just...

well, that's great news. it was probably time to do little renovation work anyway.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm a thrifty traveler. The Diplomat Hotel is mostly filled with Western guest and indeed was the only place in all of Cebu that the air conditioner was cranked to...

Cebu Report
The main thing about the Philippines is everything and I do mean everything (with the exception of electricity) is cheap. Even when you have been ripped off, it likely cost a lot less...

Exactly where is that located? I just got into town and haven't seen any ads for it.

How well does Skype work in Cebu and in the Philippines in general?

I have struck up several chat pals on DIA over the past few weeks. As I get closer to my arrival date in Cebu, three have offered to meet me at the airport. They want to know my flight number and and...

Fantastic information Parnellcat! I'll also be prowling the malls and hopefully meet a few of my DIA contacts in early March. Hmmm...think I'll hit a coffee shop after I arrive.

I agree. Reading the other reports by laylow point that out. And to think I answered one of his posts in a serious manner.

Well Bob, I've also gotten a real drop in messages. Unlike you I'm just looking for a few short time "friends". I edit my intro on a daily basis and make it clearer with each edit what I am seeking....

So, what do you want? Quantity or Quality? Do you want 8 to 12 bull Sh*t messages from scammers or one quality message every three days? Hmmm...
Quality doesn't come in high volume.

You're probably right about my over-analysing. I too have been editing my profile to make it clear that I'm only looking for a short term friend to spend time with while I'm here for two weeks.

I don't live in the Philippines but the scenario you ask about is universal. People who monger on a regular basis and are married have jobs that make it possible to do so. I used to see a guy in San...

I will be arriving in Cebu at about 12:30 am. Is there a money exchange open in the airport at that hour? If not can I get a prepaid taxi with USD? Or can I get peso's with a bank card from an ATM?

Thanks to all for your responses on the term "simple". Naturally I'm wondering about another term that might seem obvious. That term would be "other".
It's usually included with the phrase "I want...

I was curious about the term "simple". I mostly see it in very short personal descriptions. Is it a euphemism for something else?

Thanks for the follow up article. Funny isn't it that they moralize in articles but gladly accept advertising dollars from the spas. :)

Talk about some truly helpful posts. Some really great advice for my first trip to Cebu (or the Philippines for that matter). :)

...that's a MAN BABY!!!

The only place I know is JR Ribs. Never been myself but lots of fellow mongers seem to like it, though most say to stay away from the coleslaw for health reasons. Cost wise I think it's comparable to...

There is a brotherhood of mongers in CR. There are several expats there that are generous with information on the scene there. Thanks to CRT no monger needs to feel alone in a strange country. I'm...
