American are typically about Php15 ($.30) per minute, so you're far better off with Skype Out or one of the other VOIP services. I think I pay slightly over $.01 per minute to the US with Skype Out.
Manila is an enormous city of about 11 million people, and it's impossible to give you the names of all the good restaurants. I suggest you stick to Makati, where good places abound. Try restaurant row in Greenbelt. Italianis, among others, serves very nice food and the prices are not cheap. Assuming you have wine, you can expect to pay $25-$30 a person. On the other hand, the cheaper chain restaurants like Outback are all over the place as well, and there's a TGI Fridays near Greenbelt and also one in Mall of Asia. Hard Rock Cafe is in the same building at TGI Fridays in Makati.

Amavida,
Yes, I generally prefer Europeans & Latinas. However I do find Asian women attractive also .... just in a different way. As far a PSE vs. GFE goes it appears we have different definitions of what those terms implies. I have found ample opportunities for GFE in Thailand; but take two Thai women back to your hotel and see how many times one of them locks herself in the bathroom (definitely not PSE friendly). I'm not saying that I want to do threesomes all the time - I just like women that are more "expressive & aggressive" in the sack. That's all. I have met some genuine nymphomaniacs during my time in the LOS but I find it to be a rarity. None-the-less, my yellow fever flares up from time to time and what Mr. Happy wants Mr. Happy gets.
On a side note: 6 months ago I had to contact Orbitz customer care and have my flight to Brazil push up by a week and got to talking with the representative. It turned out that she was calling from the PI. When I told her that I hadn't gotten around to visiting her country yet she replied, "Well when you decide to come, give me a call and I'll pick you up at the airport". Wow! Now that's customer service!

In The Philippines, the girls are still of course looking after Number 1 and the main chance. But they are much more willing to enter into a relationship with the punter and at least attempt to give the satisfying illusion of intimacy rather than a cold, calculating business deal. This is why, if you enjoy the GFE over the PSE, the Philippines is the better bet.

Posts: 336PI a "step up" from LOS.
When I spoke of hoping that the Philippines was an improvement from the LOS I guess I am generally speaking of the attractiveness of the ladies and hopefully that the women are better in the sack. Thai women are OK, but after spending so much time in Europe and South America I'm used to having a wide choice of women of all skin tones and hair colors and when I returned to Bangkok a couple of years ago I simply found Thai women to be rather plain. Also ..... Latin and European women tend to be more aggresive in the sack in my experience and I can get the PSE that I greatly prefer over the "yawn" GFE.
Since I've had the pleasure to work with a lot of Filipinas I already know that there has to be some smoking babes in the PI. Only thing I don't no for sure is whether Filipinas are aggressive in the sack - or if they are shy starfishes. I've beeen told that Filipinas can be nymphos in bed and this is what I'm hoping for. None-the-less, my favorite hunting grounds will continue to be South America and Europe. I just like to visit Asia from time to time.

Admittedly, it is difficult to get a great GFE there anymore, but not impossible, particularly in the more laid back Pattaya.
Lets me get this right. You have never been to Thailand and have only visited The Philippines as a tourist but khun poot pah sah Thai and magsalita ng Tagalog. Khun ben matalinong lalaki!

Posts: 100So for a person who speaks Thai like myself then Thailand would be perfect? I keep hearing the women in Thailand don't give GFE but since I speak Thai would I get good GFE no problem or is this unrelated to being able to speak their language? I've been to the PI and I really liked Angeles. I hated the fact that there was not one bar that had drop-dead stunners ONLY. I don't know if your exaggerating about there being gorgeous women everywhere but that would be nice though. I will visit Davao and Makati though first before I go to Thailand. Since Makati supposedly has the hottest working women in PI and Davao is the best place to pick up hot non-working "regular" locals in the PI. That way I can do the same in Thailand and compare.
I'm thinking of venturing to Thailand on a side trip to experience it for the first time.
P.S.. Yes, for those wondering. I do speak a number of languages Thai and Tagalog/Ilocano being three of them. I was a CTI in the Navy for the retired hands amongst us.

Posts: 4051LOS vs PI
Where to concentrate your efforts depends, as others have implied, on what you want from your trip. If it's gorgeous and available women everywhere, great food, a fascinating culture and an extremely interesting country, then head for Thailand. If you're looking for endlessly available women, many of whom will give you GFE and you do not care about the food or the culture, and if the ability to communicate in English is important to you, then choose the Philippines. For me, it would be Thailand every time.

Posts: 4567Sounds like a good plan. And the way you've explained it, you're not lying at all -- just witholding information!
I'm not sure what you would consider a "step up" from Thailand. The big advantage of PI in my opinion is that the ladies speak English and you can get "girl-friend expierience" (gfe) from p4p girls, and better yet you can get gfe from regular ladies. The latter option is easier once you've learned a bit about the society and culture, but not impossible in your one week time frame -- especially from a horndog like you.
When it comes to food, hotels, exotic culture and history, and stunning p4p, Thailand has many advantages.
Have fun, X

Hi X Man
I treat San Fernando as a chill out place. There is entertainment if you want it. I never made it to Poro this trip only passing through of a trike. It looked busy with locals. I used to enjoy the Intercon Disco.

Posts: 336PI? I'm going to lie.
Thanks for your input X-man but I must say that I'm going to lie my ass off. I have a good gig that allows me to travel and chase chicks fairly often. I'm not going to mess up a good thing by having to explain myself to co-workers. Granted that I'm single and it's already well known that I'm a horn-dog; I just don't want to take the chance of losing my job because some femi-nazi accuses me of being a sex tourist.
I have actually come up with a decent plan. I'll fly to Indonesia and spend a few days there taking pictures and stuff (I've always wanted to visit Borobudur anyway). Then I could catch a flight to Manila and spend a week hitting the Go-Gos there and at Angeles. I'll have nice photos to show of Indonesia and I might mention that I happened to have an unplanned layover in Manila for a few hours (heh, hehe, heh). If only I can pull this off.
It will be my first time visiting the PI and hope it is a step up from Thailand (which I've been to 5 times). Maybe I'll get to visit Lake Taal - seems to be a beautiful place.
Thanks - DSK
