Manila

[QUOTE=IM Punter;1223643]This is probably a stupid question, but are the bars, MBC, EDSA and malls open Sunday in Manila, or does mongering take a day off?[/QUOTE]There's no stupid questions. MBC is open 24/7. Malls are open 7 days a week. And no, mongering in Manila never takes a day off.

Westcoast, same exact thing happened to me with my flight from LA, but on Asiana. Unfortunately, I made a mistake in my booking. But being a 1K member of United, I was able to fix my tickets right there, and boarded the flight.

I did ask one time, one of the immigration officials. His response was there they started this policy after YOUNG South Korean kids came down to Phillipines and don't go back home. IN S. Korea, when you cross a certain age, you are drafted into the South Korean military. Similar to the national service in Israel and Singapore. Many young Koreans have been using Phillipines for hideout. Parents send them off, and then wire them funds for upkeep.

Thats why you have so many Koreans in Phillipines. And it is growing.

I helped bunch of young Ukrainian kids in Hong Kong airport, as they were stopped from boarding a Cebu Pacific airline because they did not have a return ticket. I sat explained to them, and had them go to the Starbucks in terminal 2, sat on my laptop, and booked them tickets online.

Anyway, you need to have at least an itenary, I guess.

I will be arriving in Manila on the 27th. Hopefully it is not raining.

[QUOTE=Westcoast1;1224057]On a similar note, the last time I flew from LA to phils, when I checked in at Korean Air in LA, the KA clerk looked over my printed itinerary and passport, then asked how long I was going to be in filipines. I told him 20 days. He looked again at my itinerary, then said: "It appears 22 days sir. You have to have another ticket out. Are you flying out on another airline during your stay? Do you have an extended filipine visa?" Crap! Did I miscalculate my dates? He showed me the itinerary, and by my calculation it was 20 days. I asked him to count the days. He looked worried, and it made me worry: would they deny me boarding the KA flight? He literally called a supervisor, they looked over the itinerary, then their computer screen, then the supervisor pulled out her cell phone, pulled up a calendar, and they counted the days: exactly 20 (I never fly out on the 21'st day, in case of delayed flight, etc). Whew! My point is, they were looking over the visa-less kano itineraries to make sure they didn't go over 21 days. I'm wondering if the airlines who fly tourists in get into trouble with the pilipine government for customers who are overstaying their visa?[/QUOTE]

I thought for a US citizen no visa requirement with 90 days maximum stay. Am I missing something?

You are right, no need for Phillipine visa. Need the return ticket.

[QUOTE=Robbaf; 1224308]US Citizens can stay 21 days without a visa and your arrive day does not count.

Robb[/QUOTE]Initial entry stamp gets you 21 days, the exact expiration date is stamped in your passport, you can actually do two extensions and stay up to 90 days. The first one gets you to 60 days, the second gets you to 90 days. If you leave even 1 day late from the 60 days, they will route you to a pay window at immigration in airport, charge is about 4300p, (over sight on my part). I don't know the charges if you go over the 60 AND 90 without proper extensions. I know if you stay over 90 days, there could be BIG problems.

I've never had Delta check my itinerary for length of stay before ticketing or ask if I had proper visa. Usually I go for business but just travel there as tourist, with no pre-visa, and use the 21 day then do extensions as needed at BI. I'm US citizen, maybe that has something to do with it but I've never had any problems travelling around PI.

[QUOTE=Rob Raxcal;1221947]I put a post on the Cebu forum asking about things to do for New Years and it seems that it is dead there. Any ideas for Manila on New Years? Do all the girls leave here also to go home? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.[/QUOTE]Most of the girls also go home for the holidays. AC is a better bet. I have been in Manila during Christmas the last 6 years and it has been dead for the P4P bars. Similar with New Years. I will be in manila for Christmas again (due to family) but heading to AC for the new year again. It has been a blast the past 4 years. Even with girls going home for the holiday, there are so many bars that you will have a great time. I usually return to Manila after the new year since many girls come back looking to make money before school starts.

Freshly returned, after a few days of excess, now busy trying to remember the somewhat hazy events of the past few days.

Arrived at Manila airport at the ungodly hour of 4am on Saturday am. Headed to my place to make sure there were no visitors in my apartment then headed out to meet the first of my "ladies" who was waiting for me at the airport.

Miss 19, nice fuller figure for a Pinay, we arrived and were proceeding to bed (in my thoughts) when she advised she's still having her period. Ok can't be helped, so at about 7 am I'm receiving as very nice blow from her. She had been amazing to find on the previous time I had met her, young and passionate, and she still was, but I wasnt as "wowed". She got to do lots of dressing up, but at 1pm we had both run out of things to do, and no honey I'm not taking you shopping. Had to spend a few minutes cleaning up a few drops of blood on the sheets too. So I dropped her at the local mall with taxi money and a small $ gift and set about waiting for the next one.

Next one was Miss 21, a secretary in Ortigas who I had had many chats with. She had indicated to me she was slim and I'd seen her face on cam. She tells me she's waiting outside Mcdo. There I see really cute really slim lady with a big happy smile. She's showing lots of leg in a very short dress (I later found this was her trademark style of dressing. Slightly slutty but clearly she didn't mind being looked at ).

We headed back to my place, where within about 10 minutes were sampling locked lips delight. From there to the bed where I could view this shrimp of a girl properly. 39 kgs and with a 19 inch waist. I go from a girl with a fuller figure to the exact opposite.

I go down on her and she's squealing with delight. Say its first time anyone ever did that. And she says she likes and can I continue. She also tells me I'm the first foreigner she has met for a date.

We do all normal things, (altho there was some overly enthusiastic fingering occurred which resulted in some blood drops again) and she politely asks when she has to leave. She didn't want to outstay her welcome. She gets dropped off by 6pm with a taxi gift as I hope to see her again.

Then I head back to the mall to park my car and to take taxi to Eastwood. In EastwoodIim due to meet an 18 year old, who clearly has been promised meetings with guys who don't show up. Thts why we agree to meet in Eastwood.

Again, had seen Ms 18 on cam and had nice expressive happy face and was happy to talk to. I enjoy walking around Eastwood waiting for her (lots of female talent there too!). She arrives 5 minutes late with a really happy smile, nice tight pants on and a top that indicates its not empty. We get to talk and she necks a bottle of beer quite fast. Ten mins later her head is on the table and she's displaying signs of being drunk.

I suggest we head to a taxi and she readily agrees. In taxi she lies down on my lap with my hand conveniently placed on her boob. We get to my car, where she kisses me drunkenly and passionately. We get to my place, she finds the bedroom, pulls me down and simultaneously starts undressing. Well when presented with a fresh 18 year old puss I know what to do. I eat and she squeals and says (AGAIN!) that no one has ever done that before. And from her squealing it could well be true. We do what we need to do, she falls asleep, I send emails and chat with a few and by midnight I'm done. Thats 3 girls in 18 hours which is enough for me.

The saga continues. Day two. Did some work Sunday am, and get into my stride with a return visit by Ms 21 secretary. I was suppoed to see Ms 22 from alabang, who I had met and bonked on a previous trip. However I realise my schedule was overfull so she was jettisoned. It was a shame as she was hot, but how much can a man do. Later this jettisoned girl started sending abusive texts saying I was just a player and was only interested in sex. Perceptive girl LOL.

Anyways Ms Secretary 22 was smitten and was happy to return. We end up taking a bath and she advises that she has never given a blow. She tries to suck mine but almost chokes herself so maybe its true she never had. Again she politely asks how long she can stay and at 6pm she's dropped off with a dollar gift.

Head to Heritage Hotel where I'm to meet Ms 22 student. We have met a few times before and she's helped me make many memorable videos and some truly pornographic pics. We meet in Heritage as our intention was to find an Edsa bar girl she could play with (her idea her request ). We sit in all the bars and the pickings were real slim. Dogs in almost all. If I had been a single guy I wouldn't have found a single suitable one there) My girl chats to a few girls to see if interested but most just quoted a stupid price of P3000 for ST. So basically we left and went and played together. Lots more pics and videos.

Before my girl left at midnight she starts crying and saying why is it I could pay a bargirl P3000 plus barfine but I only ever gave my girl P1000 or p1500 as a gift. My girl clearly didn't understand that she was being given a gift and that she shouldn't confuse herself with a working girls income. She didn't quite get the difference. She left, and then I got a few " your a nice man, I love you but don't want to see you again" type messages. No probs with me honey, my beds quite full anyway. Oh and she got it in the ass for what she said was first time.

Day 3 meant meeting another Ms 22, a student studying law but also a call centre manager. Drove up to her and saw nice legs and fine face. This one was Ms Chatty. We head to my place where she's happy to dress up in all the gear I have, schoolgirl etc but absolutely refused to let me take any pics. Which is the point of the whole thing. Anyways at some point her phone rings and she takes the call. Comes back all teary eyed and explains that the caller was her mum, begging her not to meet me (the foreigner) as its likely I would want sex and maybe would pay her daughter for it. Right on Mom. We go to bed, girl says she's never been with a foreigner, and she was quite into the sex part. After a few hours I'm quite bored already and she's still talking so I tell her we will go for lunch and I tell her where we will go. She does the classic Filipino " I don't like there ". And so I tell her thats where I'm going and up to her if she comes. I also tell her if someone invites you for lunch its polite to say either thankyou or no thankyou.

Anyways I drop her and give her a $ gift just to spite her Mum LOL. I thought I'd never hear from her again, but ten minutes later I'm getting texts saying how much she loved it and could we meet again tomorrow. Amazing!

Head home do some work and have a sleep. Head to Makati Cinema square at 6 pm to meet a lady I've know for past 2 years. The type I could happily live with or at least take a long vacation with. The type who looks great but thinks she's ugly because she doesn't have the standard Filipina long black hair brown skin look. This girl has fantastic boobs too. Anyways we go for dinner, drinks then lots of smooching. Somewhere along the way sex happens nice and slowly and its really good. Sadly I drop her off in the morning and I know that she will refuse to accept one centavo from me. A really nice girl who I wish had a better life than she does.

From there its a short wait for the Saturday nights 18 year old. She has decided she's in love with me and no sooner have we met again, than she's clutching at me as if I'm a lifebelt on the Titanic. Back to my place and she's naked in a moment. Got some nice vids and pics. She leaves after 3 hours crying like theres no tomorrow.

From there its a final fling with the secretary who is wearing an extremely short blue skirt today and very high heels. She's also in love with me now and tells me. A nice independant girl who I will enjoy drinking with on next trip.

So that was the trip. Best trip of the year and this was trip number 8 for 2011. I had 8 other girls who I was texting and chatting with who I had told I would meet but just didn't have time. They are all now whinging at me on fb, dia, and all the other sites where I find them. They or others will be equally available for next trip. Sadly next trip will not be for at least 10 weeks as lots of domestic grief about me even taking this trip. Anyways Merry Christmas Manila.

[QUOTE=Cool Traveler;1224272]You are right, no need for Phillipine visa. Need the return ticket.[/QUOTE]In my case at Korean Airlines in LA, I had the return ticket (complete itinerary) in hand. Also, the clerk had it on his screen. It read something like: Departing July 5, Returning July 25, on Korean Airlines. The clerk somehow misread that as 22 days. His supervisor also had to take a long look at it (that appears 20 days to me) , then check a calendar and count the days. Those koreans were clearly concerned with the idea that a non-Filipino was possibly about to try to enter filipines for more than 21 days.

I am glad you left some for the rest of us. At least. I think you did hahaha.

See you next year. I hope you can survive the next 10 weeks but I am sure it will not be a drought

Due to my damn immigration papers of which I was not able to go to angeles city as planned, so stay in Manila waiting like an assholes everyday for the approval. So last night, I txt margie to meet me at Mall of Asia. Feeling like a gf / bf at the mall, chating, eating outside and then end up a night together again. As I want to be away from Mabini area so we stay at China town, Lido de paris hotel. Room rate P2000 incl of 2 breakfast, nice room and newly renovated. As usual start with long good kissing, full night of sex. Before we left in the next day, I sneak P2000 in her pocket, but she declined to take it and later insisted to return p1000 to me. She said, it is not a sex for pay. This is different from the first night we have been together.

Well, my instinct tell me that it is better to pay than to pay more later on. I think, need to scrap her from my mine, just keep mongering around will be the best idea.

I think if my papers will be approved tommorrow, then I may stay a night in AC or else stict manila this time.

Cheers,

MD

better to buy a compactable umbrella there. it will get confirep001ed at the airport unless it is in your check-in luggage. learned this the hard way.

Usually I have the roundtrip tickets from the same airline. There were times when my departure dates were later than 21 days coming back to US. Nobody denied boarding. Usually I will go in between to Hong Kong or China for some meetings and come back to Phi. Although I had copies of these bookings nobody asked me to show. Is this a new requirement on part of the airlines or stricter immigration rules on part of the Phi? Another thing I have noticed is for USA passport holders the immigration people hardly take any time twiddling around with their computers. It took just under a minute for them to stamp and let me go. But I have noticed for others ahead of the line it took quite a long time to clear them.
