[QUOTE=CaliPro; 1457593]Trying to decide between getting an apartment in Malate or Makati for 3 weeks.

Will spend most my time in Malate. However the apartment in Makati is much nicer. I am trying to keep costs down on traveling though.

Is there a jeepney that goes from Makati to Malate? When do they stop running at night?

How much is a taxi to Malate from Makati? Like 350p?[/QUOTE]

Hey, I though you were down and dirty and staying in a squatters place?

Glad to see you are moving up in the world. It is so much better to be someplace comfortable!

Malate Robinson Mall to Greenbelt 3 is about 120p. 140P (I have been doing it a lot lately) if they don't rip you off. If you are really cheap take the LRT it is easy and fast but requires a little walking.

Stay in Makati by greenbelt (walking distance). I do not recommend Malate. MBC is cool and I do like the music up stairs, the pizzas are HUGE and the girls who are barfined upstairs are smoking. The random area girls have some cuties also. But it is dirty as FUCK around the place.
Cowboy is cool but the nachos sucked- they gave them to me cold and told me they are supposed to be that way.

I am right across the street from Robinsons mall. Awesome view , the mall is good, but the little kids running around naked , the garbage and pollution, the beggars- it is just plain dirty and a bit smelly. I walk to mbc and cowboys and the nightclub here. I don't feel threatened but its just nasty and dirty and beggars. Its a rough street life for the people here.

I have no reason to stay in Makati as most the places I will be hanging out will be in Malate. I don't mind the rough and dirty aspect of Malate (so long as my room isn't like that LOL)

Fuck I can't wait.

[QUOTE=CaliPro; 1459130]I am about 3 months out from my 2 month trip in the Philippines.

Manila 3 weeks.

Cebu 3 weeks.

Dumaguete 2 weeks.

Fuck this will be pure epic. Already have some smoking chicks I hooked up with last time waiting for me, plus about 100 new girls I met online for each city waiting on my message when I touch down.

Will be first trip where I stay in one city longer than a week.[/QUOTE]Do not keep any normal girl more than 3 days. The reason being most are horny and give good service first few days. Afterwards they complain about being sore, tired, bored etc. Also once they get used to you they think they.

Can get away with anything. I found out one day is too short and expensive. Two days are good for ok service because service sometimes gets better second day. Three days are good for bonding.

If you want to avoid walk of shame stay only three days in any particular hotel. Do not know about apartments because I always like safety and security of hotels.

St. Giles / City Garden Hotel to New World Hotel, it is 1.8 km. If there is zero traffic, takes a 10 minute taxi drive. With traffic which is almost always jammed, it is about 40 min to an hour drive from Burgos to Greenbelt. Burgos and Greenbelt (Greenbelt 3 is where Havana is located) is connected by Makati Avenue. Almost a straight road crossing couple of major streets such as Roxas. In Burgos area (or North East Makati) , there are quite a few hotels. The most frequented hotel by members is the St. Giles. The clubs, and bars in Burgos are behind St. Giles. Right next to St. Giles or almost attached to St. Giles is the City Garden Makati Suites. I have stayed at both the hotels. St. Giles is between $80 to $140 depending where and how soon you purchase the room. City Garden Makati by far is the better hotel. It is much cleaner and always about 10 to 20 bucks cheaper at any given time. I stayed at the St. Giles pretty recently and was disappointed. City Garden right next door was a much better deal. Up the road (North) from St. Giles on Makati Avenue is the Best Western which is pretty decent, and a few other hotels. There are other hotels in and around Burgos area, which are cheaper. Some that I would recommend around the corner of Kalayaan and Makati Avenue where St. Giles is located is the Berjaya Makati, Tune Hotel, Best Western Plus Antel, Best Western Oxford Suites, Makati Palace, and even the Royal Bellagio. Royal Bellagio is right behind St. Giles. The ground floor of Royal Bellagio is a bar, and Pinay's, especially FLs do come there for pickups. At any given day and time, I have encountered about half a dozen girls, increasing with as the evening draws in. This probably is beginning of the 'bar street' of Burgos.

Along the way from Burgos to Greenbelt 3 on Makati Avenue, there are quite a few other hotels. As you walk down Makati Avenue from Burgos to, you will cross The Mandarin Oriental, Somerset Olympia, The Peninsula Manila, Makati Shangrila, Raffles and New World Hotel. If you hit Arnaiz Stree, or pass the Fairmont Hotel, you have passed the greenbelt. Greenbelt will be on your right as you walk south.

Makati Avenue is a straight road. Pretty busy with both cars and walking traffic most of the day. I have walked this route in the day time and middle of the night and had no problem, but I do not recommend it. I was drunk that day. Middle of the night, there is no traffic, and just take a taxi, and it is cheap. I have jogged from City Garden to Greenbelt, got a Starbucks and walked back, on a early morning.

But early evening, or day time, if you'the like a walk, walk it. Better than being stuck in traffic for 45 minutes. Corner of Kalayaan and Makati, where St. Giles is located, to Greenbelt is approximately 25 minute for the brisk walker, and 30 to 35 minutes for those slow mo's.

Staying in either of this places, Burgos or Makati, you can easily visit the Havana and Burgos.

Yes! Cerveseria. I loved their barbecued asparagus appetizer. Great place to sit and watch the action. Sit on the outside, and closer to the Seattles Best Coffee. This way the girls can sidle up to you there.

[QUOTE=Hutsori;1456737]Cerveseria. Actually Cafe Breton is right beside Havana, then a GB3 entrance, and then Cerveseria.[/QUOTE]

But they do not seem like working girls, they seem to be with a group that includes guys and such.

Where is a spot to pick up some hot Korean girls?

Looks like this ex-pat did not pay his bills, then repeatedly harranged security guards, whose job is to block out people who are behind in bills.

This story does not make sense. If this guy works for an American company in the Phil, he should be so well paid that he should have no problems paying the fees.

But why did the security guard take it personally? He's looking at long prison sentence for using wrong bills collecting tactics for the subdivivision.

Would love to shack up with the little sexy live-in partners Pinays, but I hate it if I get shot in the face for not paying bills.

Manila can be dangerous.

American diver who helped search for Robredo killed.

Row with Las Piñas village guard triggers shooting.

By Jaymee T. Gamil Philippine Daily Inquirer.

11:23 pm | Friday, August 16th. 2013.

An argument with a subdivision security guard Thursday night led to the fatal shooting of an American diver and businessman who last year received an award from President Aquino for helping the Coast Guard search for the body of then Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo.

Matthew Caldwell. 59, of Hamilton Heights, Las Piñas City, was shot in the face allegedly by security guard Ericson Elacquio, who escaped with another guard following the incident, police said.

Chief Insp. Eddie Galang of the Las Piñas police said the suspect shot the victim during an argument at the gate around 10:30 pm Caldwell and his live-in partner, Jeanelyn Flora. 36, were in their Toyota Corolla on their way home when Elacquio refused to let them enter.

The guards at the gate had been ordered by the subdivision management not to give access to residents who had been delinquent in paying monthly dues, according to Chief Insp. Vanni Martinez, head of the investigation unit.

Elacquio refused to raise the wooden boom barrier when he encountered the couple, according to the officers.

It was not the first time that the security guard and the American had a heated exchange over unpaid dues. 'We saw at least three similar records in the guards' logbook, with (Caldwell) reported as cursing the guards at one point and even cutting the ropes of the wooden boom [barrier], ' Martinez said.

Elacquio snapped after the couple argued with him again. When Caldwell tried to remove the wooden boom of the gate, the security guard drew his service firearm and shot the American pointblank.

The Las Piñas police also identified Caldwell as a director of Allegro Microsystems Inc.

I live in Korea, these girls are very xenophobic and being anything other than full blooded Korean is a negative.

Best to not waste your time and stick to the Pinays.

Where is a spot to pick up some hot Korean girls?[/QUOTE]I woke up in my hotelroom with a korean woman after a visit to Insomnia / Malate. She had to show me her passport to make me believe she was korean. Before I went all shitfaced at Insomnia I noticed there were quite a lot of people in this club atleast looking korean (and obviously the girl joining me was korean). Don't ask me why. Maby this is somewhere close to "koreatown" or sth (I guess Manila has one too).

where is a spot to pick up some hot korean girls?[/quote]korea is definitely the hottest spot to pick up korean girls. besides, korea is very clean. unlike ermita and malate it is pretty much devoid of nasty old toothless grannies, dirty begging mothers with naked kids, thieving street urchins, panhandlers, and annoying street vendors. the only downside is that, because professional korean men's lifestyle frequently involves drinking and singing into the wee morning hours, you do find the stench of [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109][CodeWord109][/url] along the curbs and building walls very early in the morning. but unlike in ermita, korean property owners get out and scrub up the trash and stench so that everything looks bright and fresh before noon. definitely a better mongering destination than the philippines for those who are easily offended by dirty surroundings.

Where is a spot to pick up some hot Korean girls?[/QUOTE]That would be ZZYZX near the corner of Adriatico and Remedios. Both ZZYZX and Insomnia are heavily patronized by Koreans, mostly guys of course. You'll also find quite a few in Bedrock on Adriatico across the street from the Malate Pension. BGC also has a lot of Koreans.
