hi sunrise
marriot is not a bad choice for bad girls,it is a 5 minute walk from the ayala mall,you probably saw my past posts on malling for bad girls,just in case,bo s coffee infront of rustans,mi vida at night are good places to shop for girls at the mall.the resident manager of marriot is an austrian lady by the name of christian wasfy and she knows me quite well,but of course not as cebu local.that is why the place is always clean and efficient,german actually austrian management.out of curiosity how much did you pay for a business suite if you dont mind,just will validate if they gave you a good deal,regards
-
Hi CL. I just got the preliminary confirmation and it states that the cost is 6300 pesos per night, inclusive of taxes and breakfast. Now that I think of it, that's about 1500 pesos more per night than the suite I have confirmed at Tambuli! I have not done a final confirmation for the Marriot yet: any adjustments that I need to make?
I'm sure that I will have a wonderful time in your country. For what it is worth, in all my dealings with Asians here in the USA, I try to repay the Asian "WAY" I enjoy while abroad. Regards
-
well,just gave them a quick call and at the promo rate,it is about 5,300 for a business suite unless you are staying at the executive floor,then 6,300 is ok,Imho,you will impress the good girls and bad girls.regarding my nationality,it is actually canadian,but have lived in cebu long enough to speak cebuano and tagalog at native levels,maybe too long since i consider myself adopted cebuano,enjoy your stay

Cebu Local, on a June post you quoted cost of living in Cebu:
"regarding cost of living in cebu,monthly rental for a small furnished aircon apartment about 5000-6000 month or 100-120 dollars,salary of live in maid 1500 or 30$,groceries for 1 person monthly about 3000-4500 pesos a month or 60-90 dollars.beer in supermarket 14 pesos or 28 cents,yes it is very easy to get a girlfriend,regards"
Does this still hold true? I'm fluent in tagalog but not visaya, what's the learning curve for learning this language in your opinion?
Any thoughts on Davao? I'm asking coz I've decided to take some time off to re-immerse myself with the culture and people so a good couple of years somewhere in the P.I. is what will fix me.
I originally planned on Makati in Manila but having visited Cebu last year I know it's better as far as peace of mind and fresh air.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

the cost of living in cebu is much lower then metro manila,so the prices would still hold plus 5% for inflation due to oil price increases,davao is about 20% cheaper then cebu,but then you are stuck in a provincial city,if you want international food,need to go to Citibank,HSBC etc.these do not exist in davao to the extent of cebu,the airport in cebu can connect you to international destinations with direct flight,davao means going out by cebu.no problem about language since most cebuanos speak some tagalog,davao is a visaya speaking city.hope this helps

Cebu-local..
Question for you..
Where would be the best place in Cebu to try to find a girl to give a massage(s) to myself and my PI wife? I am thinking that our hotel room would be the best venue however are there some massage places that do outcall or is it best to try our luck in one of the bars?
-
Cebu-local,
Do you know of any entertainment on Boracay?
-
niterunner
you can plenty of outcall services,just look up the services section of either the freeman or sunstar both local cebu papers,they service in room,regarding boracay define entertainment further,since you mentioned your wife was with you or unless she is openminded,anyway here are general tips,freelancers can be picked up at bazzurra or wave disco near station 2,good bars imho are moondogs and cocomangas near station 1,you can massage right on the beach like bali.regards

Sorry Cebu,
I searched for your mall posts but could not find them. Can you please let us know how the scene is going now and your recomendations in the malls?

malling for girls in cebu
cebu has basically two large malls,the ayala mall and the sm mall,starting in the afternoon parttimers and freelancers work both malls,i personall like it because there is no ladies drink and no barfine involved unlike a ktv,bar,etc.you basically sit down have a coffee or a beer by yourself in any of the following places and you will be given the eye,smile back and take it from there.Ayala mall,bo s coffee shop infront of rustans and the fastfood court upstairs during the afternoon,you will probably get students and some freelancers,evening try mi vida disco at ayala also,in sm mall try hanging around the french baker pastry shop on the 2nd floor,tomtom had a great experience there with 3 women for like 2000 pesos or thereabouts.basically i hope this explains malling for girls

Hepatitis vaccines for travel to PI question... does anyone know if it really necessary to get vaccine shots for travel to places like Manila, Cebu, Boracay, and Angeles? The CDC (center for disease control) says that westerners traveling to S.E Asia should get hepatitis vaccine shots, especially if you plan on relations with the native population? Also, is there any west Nile virus outbreaks in PI?
Thanks!
-
Yes to hep vax. Cheap insurance. But if you are planning a trip soon, you gotta get on it. The "B" (what you want for sexual relations) series is 3 shots over 6 months. Most insurance covers it. The "A" (oral/fecal) series is 2 shots over the same period. A few insurance companies cover this, but it's only about $100 if you have to pay for it.
Globally, hepatitis kills more people in a day than AIDS does in a year. Decision ?

Cebu... West Nile ? We are getting a few case here in So. Calif.
-

gave a call to my doctor friend who works in the department of health here,no west nile virus at least for metro cebu,hepa shots are recomended though regards
-
Clarification only.
The Southern states have reported a few West Nile cases. None in Calif. yet.
Oh... and by the way.... Malaria kills a couple people a minute (globally), take your Doxycycline.

Since im in the health field i thought just make a little correction,
actually Chloroquine has been the drug of choice for protection from malaria. Mefloquine has been approved by the FDA and is effective at preventing Falciparum strain of malaria. Id check with the CDC for what their reccomendations are.
