A question for any here who've learned Cebuano: was there any particular app you used and would recommend, or any online courses, videos etc?

I'm interested in learning some of the language to 'please my squeeze', although her own English is excellent, so would appreciate any tips!

Thanks in advance.

Time to go Long on LBFMs. 😜.

I can only afford to go about 6" long. . .

Baguio sounds good. Was there years ago. Silver filigree, strawberries, General Yamashita's gold and the first time I ate dog. Air prices are very volatile right now from Europe but the Chinese are going to clean up. If I take the Baguio route, I will go further north too, hitting the various towns in search of the perfect LBFM.

Never ate dog here.

And nope, Chinese aren't interested in this part of PH.

Unlike Koreans interested in Clark area.

Did you grab yamashita's gold? Marcos wants it back.

[Goferring]

Pesos to one US dollar: 61.62.

USD, AUD, EUR etc gained value against all Asian currencies. Strangely, they have dropped against Latam.

I live in Baguio. Well, Notre Dame is very very good.

And have you been to Baguio? Yesterday was hot, like 27 degree see. That's hot for here.

I see some have been fortunate enough to have a girly guide, that would be awesome, but don't have any contacts.

I'd be grateful to receive DMs and happy to share contacts back for those interested in Dubai.

Cheers, SW.

Do some look up on Peurto Galera, seaside and has a few freelancers.

If you are looking for wham, bham thank you ma'am. Deals, start with Angeles. Red street is filled with take out girl bars.

I am based and Baguio, loads of freelancer, none available at short notice. As they have studies or work. Not the best place unless you have a lot of patience. And of course, most of the girls here are visitors looking for extra cash.

[Econo Tech]

I am going through several options and I want to explore the Pinoy one for a number of LBFM related reasons. If anyone has relevant info on Phils, please share. All other SEA countries are out for a variety of reasons.

Baguio appeals to me for a few days as long as they don't leave a scalpel in me. Other places are just too awkward and uncertain to get to.

Hi All!

I'm planning my first trip to Phil. And it's so complicated! Too many islands and places to research.

Any suggestions on the best way to blend mongering and vacation? Angeles sounds too one-sided, a mongering destination and nothing else to do.

I'm thinking 2-3 weeks.

It's only as complicated as people allow it. Many guys arrive, having done a mountain of research, with a calendar full of minute by minute plans. They never eventuate and the guys leave dejected that their expectations were never met.

Much better to read up here to get a feel for what areas have the things that you are interested in and the girl options that you seek.

There are lots of options: natural beauty, snorkeling and diving, big cities, high end resorts, clubbing. Do you want point and shoot hookers, barfines, freelancers, good girls? Keep her for and hour, a few days after work, a weekend to Boracay, the whole stay (not recommend)?

The options to blend mongering and entertainment are to stay where there are both (Manila, Cebu, Subic etc) or BYOG to the quieter area (from Cebu to Bohol, Manila to Boracay, Palawan etc). As others have said, everyone's definition of "entertainment" is different.

Unfortunately, many members are reluctant to pass on direct contacts, even to known friends. Just because I like someone / thing doesn't mean that you will. You will also get more pleasure out of finding girls how and where you like anyway.

Enjoy. G.

Philippines is the easiest place to score, even on your first trip, you don't need any contacts there are lots of options I would start from Manila. Just skim a few pages on ISG or let AI summarize the good stuff for you. Angeles is pure mongering heaven too. For a proper 2-3 week mix of pussy + vacation, don't make it all Angeles.

I haven't done Cebu yet, but have heard its still solid for girls and has way better vacation stuff around it. Girly guide would be nice but most guys just wing it after reading reports.

Not complicated at all. Start with bigger cities and work your way to smaller ones. You have not listed any points of interests, hobbies or purpose.

You will land in Manila or Cebu. Venture out from there. There are many reports and forums listed here. Do some research.

As regards the PHP / US $ and oil, the PHP has quite naturally weakened against Western countries but not markedly so, as it is an exotic currency, not a major league player.

The PHP will plummet if overseas workers start getting expelled and / or their remittances dry up. Ditto India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

I feel sorry for the Phils but my tears won't fill bellies.

I have checked a number of places in the Phils from Gen Santos to far up north and this seems to be the simplest. Manila is too big for me. ClarkMedical is not my thing.

I am prepared to go to Turkey or east Europe (Poland) too but there is the problem of not understanding the various packaes, the cold and the lack of LBFM fringe benefits.

If you make the journey to Bangkok, you can try this: https://www.phyathai.com/en/ppg/page/allyoucancheck.

Key is understanding and ordering what tests you need to get at your age bracket to assess targeted risks. Good luck, AR.

[Old And Ugly]

As I am long past retirement age, health and health checkups become more important, even though I am in good fettle. I have found Angeles good for that (and haircuts. Physio and dentists) but I would like to get a full executive check up and am looking at Baguio https://notredamebaguio.com/executive-check-up as it seems quite straightforward by Pinoy standards. I am unsure what some of the differences are between the various packages in all the offerings and consultants' fees are a worrying variable.

I prefer hospitals as opposed to clinics and I do realize they have to cater to locals of lesser means. Also, many of their websites are basic.

While in Angeles, I was referred to all the hospitals for various things, including a sleep study, intestinal check (to remove polyps) and much more; they ration a lot of the specialties between themselves which is good. Altogether, I dropped serious cash on all this but, if I want to hang around Planet Earth longer (5-15 years max), that is the price I have to pay.

Thailand I would say is a better alternative to PH, been to Bangkok Hospital chain in Hua Hin, and was ultra modern, with robots roaming the hallways and raiding the elevators on their own. No such thing in the US.
