Trip Report
I'm gonna post this here even though it's about Manila, Angeles, and Cebu. The General Thread seems to have other topics.
Howdy,
Back from the Phils last night. My first time. Only 10 days so not a huge sample size. In Manila, I did a few tourist things (I highly recommend at least a long day trip to Tagaytay and Taal Volcano. Very nice. Also saw Intramuros, etc. Not much to do in Angeles, however, besides the obvious.
LA Cafe- great place for freelancers and if you're a decent type the problem will be pushing them away. Not finding some. Highly recommended. Friday and Saturday nights are best. But anytime is ok. I stayed at Executive Plaza about two blocks from there. However, the are around there is full of beggars, viagra vendors, and also pick-pockets. So I would not recommend a late night walk. Taxi is best and even then you will be approached by about 4 guys all wanting tips for " find you a taxi". Just be on guard.
I made a quick trip to EDSA. Wasn't that impressed. Dunno why anyone would go to EDSA when LA CAFE is right downtown. But did not check out Makati scene either. Robinson's mall is close to LA CAFE, also. And there are freelancers there.
I made a short two day trip to Angeles. I was surprised and found it enjoyable, but two days was enough for me. The large go gos are ok. Probably a good idea to find out when the shifts start and go at the start of one. The confusing thing about Angeles (to me anyway) is that supposedly the barfine includes everything for the girl. Barfines seem to run about 1300 on up. According to the category. However, some are "cherry girls" (means they don't go with customers, I think). And some just don't' do what you might want in terms of service. So best to be explicit I suppose. Another approach is to go to a number of the smaller places and find one you like and if she will do what you want (maybe meet her after her shift, etc.) If you have a week or so there, this might be a good approach. I wasn't there that long and frankly, I couldn't spend a solid week there. I have to have other things going on to stimulate me besides non-stop sex with bargirls. (Just me).
In Cebu the scene is there. I'd recommend staying in the "uptown" area. I stayed at Midtown Hotel. Robinson's downstairs and girls around there. Also the cluster of bars Black Hole, etc. Are within walking distance (or short cab ride) and Silver Dollar is around the corner. I met a girl in Cebu (from Tacloban) so only had a short tiem before and afterwards. I did do the Bohol tour. Nice. But a full day. But a nice diversion.
I never made it to Palawan, Boracay, Puerto Galera, etc. My general impression for my first time and comparing it to Thailand is that the Phils is more "third world. " It also appeared and felt more dangerous to me (especially in Manila). I talked to quite a few expats or Americans, British, etc. who have lived there for quite a while and one said it's controlled by a few families and they have no interest in improving the quality of life for the masses. Consequently, to me, anyway, the country had the feel that it would never really progress much. May be ok for finding girls (cheap) but bad for the masses if you live there.
I think, to me, the girls are generally prettier in Thailand and Thailand felt safer. The advantage of the PI (noted elsewhere) is that the girls speak English and are looking for real boyfriends, husbands, etc. Again, I was only there 10 days, and I'm just giving my first impressions. I think if one bothered to try and find "educated" filipinas and followed up with them, the experience might be very positive. But if your goal is just to monger, then you may not want that.
LA CAFE, in some respects, had a feel similar to the beer garden in Bangkok, but seemed a little more modern, and, to me, if you looked you could find prettier girls. I always learn a lot about myself at these freelance bars, too. You learn who might be interested and why, etc. That's something one doesn't always learn in a "regular" setting. But just my impression.
That's about it. Good luck.

Howdy,
Back from the Phils last night....[/quote]Dear Redfield,
First of all: as one of the guys following your decision process before your trip in the "morality" thread I'm really interested more in detail in your "experiences". Was it worth to risk and finally finish your relationship?
To the Phils: unfortunately. Beside Bohol and Taal Volcano area you did not see the nice places; Manila has it's charme, but the really beautiful spots are spread all over the country (llike Boracay, Palawan, the rice terrasses and mountains etc.). When I personally compare a country like Thailand I feel more happiness and joy of life in the Philippines although the people are poor. But this is a subjective judgement.
Same for the girls: to my opinion the Filipinas are not just giving a service, they are warmer personalites and. What may be important sometimes. They are the better movers. But the girls in LA Cafe to my impression not really are typical, they are very professional.
To summarize: I think you should give the Philippines another, longer chance.

Great report Red. I have been hanging around the place the last 5 and your observations and views are parallel to mine.

Time in Malate
Just returned from Greenbelt Mall in Makati. It is a nice diversion from Robinsons Ermita. Metered taxi is about 100p and has everything you need, including Outback Steakhouse, California Pizza Kitchen, SM, and an excellent restaurant for breakfast called Heaven and Eggs. Seems to be a higher class personnel out there. Also, plenty of theatres, and Dusit Thani hotel, which I checked out today - about 8200p per night for deluxe (standard, lowest priced) room. Be prepared for "good morning sir, ma'am" if you enter stores with your GF.
EDSA last night. Casino bar - 1400 barfine. LA Cafe - crowded at 7pm. and almost all have "1 baby".

Yes...
Yes, it was worth it to go and partake. I think I wasn't as into her as I originally thought or maybe I'm just not into a relationship right now. So, yes, no regrets at all.
I did say I was just giving my impressions about my experiences in the Phils. A sample size of only 10 days. Which didn't allow me to go to many more places, really.
I'll keep your thoughts in mind, though, and maybe I'll go again.

So who was the 48 year old white guy who met a curvy webcam gal from Taguig in Robinsons Mall last week. Took her for a meal but was rebuffed when he suggested that they continue their afternoon in a motel.
There are no secrets. LOL. Must have been a monger from these parts. Hahah. Sorry you didn't get any mate.

Maybe he did!

Wasn't me but I applaud the guy for forward planning and initiative in arranging to meet a potential in Robinsons. I've done so many times (and will be doing so tomorrow except she will be a nailed on certainty;)). This way if nothing good comes of your date, you can wave her bye-bye as quickly as possible and heave ass pronto to the nearby sure things in LA Cafe. Or alternatively hang about in Robinsons and do a little mall fishing:).
Saw this rather amusing hoarding other day. Must be the Harold Shipman school of caregivers:D.

Casas in Manila
Can anyone throw a bit of light to my question?
After arriving in Manila from Bangkok to get on a Manila Sydney flight, I've elected to stay in Manila for a couple of days and check the city since I never stayed there previously.
I stayed in Makati and did the rounds. One of the taxi drivers offered to take me according to him to a CASA, where I can find beautiful girls and I can take one for 24 hours for 3, 000-3, 500 PHP.
I declined the offer since I've never being to Manila previously.
Can anyone tell me if such places do exist, how safe they are and the amount the taxi driver quoted me is correct.
Thanks in advance.

Been there
[quote=gamahucher]as a final dollop of off topic nostalgia, here are a couple of photo's to get the old memory synapses clicking.
they are not mine, but taken from the thermae website but are evocative of the old, now sadly defunct, shit hole. i particularly like the back entrance photo (nobody used the front door). you had to enter by the toilets and can anyone who ever visited the place ever forget that pungent welcoming smell consisting of stale [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109][CodeWord109][/url], spilt beer, smoke, cheap perfume and available sex. i certainly won't.[/quote]
the nice smoked bunkerfeeling with a taste of [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109][CodeWord109][/url] and mekong.

casas in manila
[QUOTE=AcemanMax]Can anyone throw a bit of light to my question?

They are difficult to find because I guess they probably move so often. It seems any cabby can take you to them. The one I have been to was so non-descript that you could not even see the front door until you touched it.
In my opinion there is not much use for them because you limit your self to selecting from the women there and are restricted to paying the price they ask. Of course it is negotiable. But once you are there at some point take it becomes take it or leave it!
The 3000-3500 price sounds pretty close if memory serves me. But, once again by manila standards that is a high end price. The time I was there I saw maybe 20-30 girls of which only 2-3 were even worth looking at.
If you are in a hurry I would recommend AirForce one over a casa any day of the week. If you have not heard of this do a search here. It is a very high quality brothel with many fantastic looking women and a great atmosphere.
Again, I think the "fast-food" mentality goes against the point of the Philippines. As I am sure you have heard the best part of the Philippines is the GFE the women deliver.

Flying into Manila in a few days and catching a Cebu Pacific flight immediately, conflicting advice from several people (filipinos) but does Cebu Pacific still fly from the old domestic or has it now moved to NAIA 3?

NAIA Terminal 3
[QUOTE=Delbert]Flying into Manila in a few days and catching a Cebu Pacific flight immediately, conflicting advice from several people (filipinos) but does Cebu Pacific still fly from the old domestic or has it now moved to NAIA 3?[/QUOTE]
They moved to Terminal 3 since last June!
Quite a distance from the other terminals
located on Andrews Ave. in Pasay City.

Thanks Matt,
I normally fly into Cebu, did last year but circumstances dictate I fly into Manila this week, I spoke to someone earlier today who told me I stay in the nain NAIA building and fly from there? Needless to say it was a Filipino who told me, send three and fourpence we are going to a dance, misinformation and disinformation, Mabuhay sa pinas.

Naia 3 IS 4. 6KM from NAIA 1? Twice the distance?
