bulacan =>; laro tong-its, laro billards

dagupan =>; wuuuw! boneless bangussss! and ever played bowling at cireneo? (the first and only automated bowling lanes in the north) (yon ang press release nila...)

iriga =>; medyo boring, lang night life (la kasi ako pera) lol! and
la manlang jolibee or mcdonalds when i was there (1998)

naga =>; love the people, so warm, parang delicacy nila, special in kana-man? mura lady's drink!!! lol!

legazpi city =>; mayon, lcc legazpi... pass time of people, drinking... hehe

sorsogon =>; grabe layo, pero sarap mag drive, it was raining so hard pero i don't care... as in grand tourismo dating nung car... and a deviation from the everyday bumper to bumper metro drive

vigan =>; old houses, sarap bagnet and longganiza , pero 7:00pm palang sarado ng lahat ang stores... i cannot even buy a bottle of mineral water... pati sa hotel boring... very limited night life

laoag =>; clean, (pero mas malinis ang palawan) badtrip lang mga natives na nakatambay sa airport... as in tinataga nila ang mga dumarating na tourist (local/foreign) sa transpo papuntang pagudpud and fort ilocandia

baguio =>; ofcourse, sarap mag billards... and the gateway to mt. pulag... the highest mountain in luzon, 2nd highest in the phils. sarap mag climb... lalo na kung traverse.

bataan =>; where you can buy a pair of tretorn at P300 bucks. boring, no night life

subic =>; syempre, the best sa cosmic (brunswick ang materials) :cool:


visayas =>;>;

bacolod =>; daming mistiza grabe... streets are wide and puro one way. tambayan sa golden fields... and casino filipino. daming mahilig sa videoke. sarap chicken sa manukan country... nice place to stay

dumaguete =>; where the original jo's inato is located... daming naka motorbike (honda 50cc), daming girls, and more girls, from siliman university. sarap mag deep sea fishing... :cool:

cebu =>; mura internet, p14/hour, meron pang p10/hour (pero 33.6 lang ang modem hehe)... check the net cafes along fuente osmena, casinos at waterfront hotel in lahug, tons of gimik places (discos and videoke bar) and shangri-la mactan... simply one best. tasty ang lechon sa lapu-lapu city and sa tabunok. daming girls sa univ. of san carlos, kulang 1 week kung puro gimik aatupagin mo! don't forget my favorite... dried mangoes... don ka bili sa shamrock sa rotonda/robinsons. hehe :cool:

kalibo =>; daming tao (local and foriegn) pag january, syempre!?!?! tapos, dadaan mo yung towns of makato... up to caticlan... tapos sakay ka boat... yeheyyyy!!! boracay ka na! tapos don ka tambay sa lorenzo south... order ka ng fresh fruit salad =? and in the evening, order a glass of gin & tonic and have a drink by the sea... wag ka lang masyadong titingin sa malayo (tapos senti ka!) at baka malunod ka!!! yakap mo nalang yung ka date mo!!! susss!

roxas city =>; hilig sa politics mga tao... grabe... walang pinag uusapan kung di politika. kaya sakay nalang ako ng ceres na bus pabalik sa iloilo.

iloilo =>; wuuw, sarap sa tatoy's restuarant... sarap sea food , if you've never been to tatoy's parang ndi ka rin nagpunta ng iloilo (dapat bayaran ako ng tatoys dito ahhh for commercial), and inom beer pulutan batchoy, hehe. daming tambay na hip-hop na ilonggo sa SM iloilo, hehe.

mindanao =>;>;

cagayan de oro =>; tambay ka limketkai o kaya ororama, the place where i observed most people have cell phones... as in almost every body has a 3210 or 8210/8850. para ka naring nasa makati. natives are so friendly

iligan city =>; two hour drive from cagayan de oro... you gotta visit 'tinago falls'... talagang breath taking...

davao =>; personally, if im going to leave manila given the chance to choose what city to stay, definitely its davao i missed 'luz kinilaw' so much and the bulalo at agdao market ... traffic is not as bad as in makati avenue / espana (taxi drivers are disciplined)... sarap ng suha! pero i don't like durian... :( syempre, nandoon ang mt. apo, the highest mountain in the phils. you can trek via kidapawan... and girls? punta ka sa ateneo... and ofcourse, people in davao are so warm :cool:

cotabato =>; punta ka sa gimikan, laging may marines na nakatambay in full battle gear, hehe, dun nga sa hotel where i stayed (in makakua street), may nakatagung mayor who survived an ambush e... just imagine the military escorts that hotel have at that time... hehe :cool:

CLaiRe_ChiLL

me naman i've been to some places here in our country coz my course is Tourism, so required sa amin ang mag tour every semester sa iba't ibang places for us to familiarized sa mga different spots dito sa Pinas:

Cavite - usually mga historical places lang dito like Aguinaldo Shrine...

Batangas - here naman its not really on my course why i was able to go there, but with my friends from highschool coz every summer we tend to go for an outing, way way back noong hindi pa kami busy sa respective works namin.

Tagaytay - dito tour namin sa school and one time naman trip lang napagkasunduan lang na magpunta don.

Laguna - isa rin sa mga tour namin, dito sa Rizal Shrine naman

Subic - Wow... ito yung time na kakaalis pa lang ng mga kano, so ginagawa pa lang tourist spot ang place na ito, here we trek the mountain and had some community service sa mga Aetas.

Puerto Galera, Mindoro - This place is cool :cool: i like the place atop of the mountain here called Ponderosa and also the coco beach.

Villa Escudero Tiaong, Quezon - Well this place is beautiful, sarap sa man made falls nila...

Baguio - quite common na, pero still such a nice place... Burnham, Mansion House, PMA, Camp John Hay, mga Buddhist Temples don, Wright Park etc...

Samar - Super wow sa kin tong place na to gusto ko ulit balikan dito yung... i forgot na the name, pero yon yung pinag shootingan nina Dawn Zulueta and Richard Gomez, doon sa Formation Rock facing the Pacific Ocean, that place is kinda Enchanted, may diwata yata don eh, kasi nung papunta kami sa island eh, medyo hanggang bewang ang tubig and unti unting lumalakas ang alon until we reach the place, lalong lumakas grabe hampas ng alon sa mga bato, medyo maiingay kasi kami eh so sabi ng prof namin konting tahimik naman and yon humupa rin ang alon then nong pauwi na hanggang sakong na lang ang tubig sa tatawiran namin at walang kahirap hirap kaming nakaalis agad sa place na yon...... haaaayyyy..... :cool:

Iloilo - Dito naman seven lang kami ng mga classmates ko, eto kasi yung place na napili namin para gawan ng research project, kaso naman karamihan naman puro mga lumang churches wala masyadong magimikan, Gaisano pa lang ang mall noon nong pumunta kami don, ginagawa pa lang ang SM shoemart so don lang kami nakapaglibot-libot at syempre di mo mapi-feel na galeng ka don kung di mo natikman ang specialty ng iloilo... ang kanilang Batchoy

Cebu - Well just like the metro manila ang Cebu "the queen city of the south" okey rin mga tao dito sunod din sa uso at di nagpapahuli, well ang places na napuntahan namin dito are Fort San Pedro, Mactan, syempre ang walang kamatayang Magellan's Cross, Landmark of Lapu-lapu and most especially and mga malls

Camiguin - This is the place na gusto kong magkaron ng bahay bakasyunan. The island is quite exotic, ganda pa ng place, sarap magsolo together with your loved one doon sa white island (tama ba ang term ko "magsolo together with your loved one") tapos akyatin ang Way to the Cross parang penetensya pero worth it naman pag nasa tuktok ka na ng bundok at nareach ang peak, ang sarap mag sight seeing... magmuni-muni kumbaga. Tapos punta sa Katibawasan Falls magtampisaw sa tubig sssaaarraaapppppp....

So there you have it, ang mga places na napuntahan ko dito sa Pinas. kaylan kaya ulit ako makakapasyan don.... wwwaaahhhhhh :(

Ilocos Region: Batac, Paoay, Pagudpud, Laoag and some other towns in Ilocos Norte and Sur. I love the beaches, the museums, the churches, the food, the culture.

Baguio: The climate's nice. Nagka-windburn nga lang ako. There are lots of nice places to see. Masarap magshop ng mga pasalubong.
