Recently spent 7 days up in Tuguegarao for my cousin's wedding to a Filipina girl. She was born in the US but they got married in her ancestral hometown and it was only the 2nd time she's been to the Philippines.

It was hard to monger as lots of family were with us but I managed to get out a bit.

Stayed in the Holiday Plaza Inn in the city. The receptionists were all drop dead GORGEOUS and all under 20 years old. One was very flirty with me but didn't take it any further as my family were all in the hotel. Their Facebook has a video of the receptionsists dancing for Tiktok: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1926318441135523.

Hard to do research online as there's not much info but I befriended a local chap in a bar who showed me the places to go.

There's one road leading out of the city that turns into a line of Karaoke bars / thinly-disguised brothels from 6 pm onwards.

Don't expect much comfort though, dirty mattresses, no AC, curtains to separate the booths.

1000 peso for an hour with the girl. All happy for OWO but no BBFS. One promised me CIM but then puked when I unloaded a large load into her mouth, don't think she was expecting so much!

Met a few stunners but there were also some older, ugly ones working. A couple of chubby MILFs and one pregnant lady if that's your thing.

Was also recommended a Thai spa in the city. Masseuers all Filipino though, no connection to Thailand at all. Had a very nice sensual massage and blowjob there but no full sex.

I was told that if you head up even further north, you can get a girl for as cheap as 500 peso / hour in some of the small-town brothels.

Thanks. Finally I will go to Cambogia and Thailand next Summer.

About Philippine, I would see if I can get holiday in from middle of April till beginning of May.

Otherwise I can go at the end of December, till beginning of January.

It would be less days of holiday than the ones I can get on Summer, but would I be safe? .

Stay in tourist areas, and you will be safe, anyway there is nothing for you in other places. If you need to move in-between places thru manila or cebu, use taxis, don't walk.

Make sure to wear shoes with laces otherwise they might take it them off along with your money, pun intended.

Stay off dark streets, leave your CC and passport in the room safe, and keep some extra money in your shoe and you should be fine. Oh Yeah, carry an Umbrella.

From the philippines airlines website, for example:

"Advisory.

As of 02 September 2024,02:00 PM.

For the safety of our passengers, PAL has cancelled the following flights on September 2, 3 and 4, due to Tropical Storm Enteng (international name "YAGI") and the enhanced Southwest Monsoon. ".

And a wole list of cancelled flights follows. During the summer season there are 3-4 announcements like this every month. The weather may be nice where you are but bad all around you, and no flights or boats are operating. And when the rain starts, usually there is a nasty flooding mixed with sewage.

[Old And Ugly]

Thank You.

I have the most of my work holiday in July and Augost and I am planning next Summer.

But if this isthe situation, I could go in April if I can get more holiday (not sure), or directly a couple of week in December 2025 (I already book December 2024).

After your informations, I think to look outside Philippine for Summer holiday.

Thanks.

I'm not a weather expert, but I would be inclined to say yes, due to the geographical location, all surrounded by water vs Thailand and Vietnam that are on "land". It also depends on how lucky you are, but if you're only coming for a short visit I would chose the October to April period. For example, by living here, I do it on reverse: I do my traveling to US and EU during June to September when the weather is nicer there and bad here.

[Giovanni Volo]

Thanks for your reply. I do not want so many problem for getting girls. .

You wrote "I no longer travel Jan to April".

But this was not the better time to go?

I have the most of holiday in July and Augost, and that's the problem.

I've never found the traditional weather seasons to be a deal breaker for me. However, I no longer travel Jan to April. Technically, it should be no problem but I've been caught out multiple times and trapped on islands during this period:

Trapped in Sabang due to typhoon and cancelled bancas.

Sabang again. Typhoon wiped out power and therefore ATMs. Couldn't get cash to pay my room / hotel to leave.

Trapped on Malapascua. High winds cancelled bancas.

Last year I was in Vietnam and Thailand.

Have Philippine worster raining season than Vietnam?

Hello.

I would plan to go to Sabang and Manila. My easy time in next Summer. I saw you was in Augost. I would ask how is the clima.

Alwasy raining? Very hot? Or is ok?

Is still possible to swim?

Ok, I would came for girls, but I cannot stay with them all the day long. :-the.

Thanks in advance.

In se asia the summer is the raining season, and when the taifuns are happening, choose wisely.

Cebu earthquake (not strictly weather related but just added to the bad juju vibes).

All of these could have been avoided by better planning and earlier responses on my part but I just decided to go in friendlier dates.

Maybe I'm just superstitious and YMMV.

Enjoy. G.

P.S. Sabang isn't really a swimming beach. More diving and some snorkelling. There are swimming sites a Day-boat tour or an hours walk away.

Hi Guys,

She said the current barefine price in Sabang is 5000 p in which the girl gets half and the 'house' gets the split.

On the whole, Sabang has served me well. Laid back as usual, great views and one more lunch tomorrow before I head north _ Phil.

Hi Guys,

Just letting you know, I had a Filipina for lunch today and she was very tasty indeed.

On a serious note, the contact I've hooked up with this week has saved me the hassle, price and negations of the girly bars here. I 'tipped' her 2000 p today (and a few bottles of water) for a three hour service. I've found that once you have contacts, it's also a more personal experience for both.

Now for a bit of info for you all. She was a former Mamasan at Coco Lips. She said it wasn't worth the hassle in the end. Now she just recommends other girls if guys hit on her and she just takes 500 p commission and the girls negotiate on their own.

She did say that if a girl resigns from one bar within six months, they can't work in any other bars and there's obviously a bit of a 'mafia' going on, which is common worldwide in the sex industry. Girls who don't want to be 'owned' by one bar in particular and then decide to leave, commonly become freelancers apparently. The price then drops fairly dramatically.

Thanks for the tips. Ill have a cutie in tow so early closing bars not a issue. Sounds like nice quite beach, a few drinking bars and fucking the rest of the time. Perfect. Just what I was looking for and not too far or expensive vs dragging her to Boracay or some other farther destination.

Hi Loca,

It's really only quiet because it's low season. Once the Korean divers hit the place in high season you're better off bringing your own talent. It's a holiday / long weekend now, so there's more feet on the ground today, but mainly folk from Manila. As for a beach, Sabang no longer has one since they've taken a few years to make the oceanfront a boardwalk of sorts. The good news is you can easily walk around to Big La Laguna beach which is relaxed and great for lying on the sand or swimming _ Phil.
