gramercy 71 was the sky bar on top floor, it was 'under renovations' for a year then i heard its never coming back. #philippines

Bit too early to tell, I have been working and exercising most of the time so far, I need time to explore and discover.

Went to Burgos last night around 11, it's 3mn walks away. Didn't really want any P2P action, I was hoping to sip on a whiskey and watch some titties quietly.

I was expecting a party street with neon, loud music and good atmosphere, similar to Soi Cowboy, but I found the area to be just creepy and sad. On my way I was approached by 2 aggresive ugly-ass LB, and I had to yell to make them stop following me around. Then random people kept approaching me from behind trying to sell random stuff, including guitars (dafuq). I focking hate having people behind me and might kick someone in the nutz at some point.

I was looking for Billboard but couldn't find it, location on google maps is wrong, anyone can give me directions ? Or is it closed now ?

Anyway, went to High Heels instead, and I was the second customer only. As soon as I sit, 10 girls are around me, ranging from 2 to 6.5, only 3 above 5. Bear in mind, I am an 8, at least. I grabbed the 6.5, order one drink for me and for her and made it clear that she was the only one I was interested in.

2-3 girls left, then I still had 6 begging to suck my penis. I didn't ask for price and I think it's condom only, I kept declining. I played around with my girl but I didn't have much fun, payed the bill, 7xx and I gave 1000 and asked them to share the tips as they want.

Top floor at Gramercy is still under renovation yeah, I asked on Friday when I checked in

Yeah lol it's busto af but it grows on you. It's more sketchy, dirty, gritty than BKK, tons of fuglies and ladyboys and touts and takes longer to find a hot girl. But when you finally do it's fun

Go to Kojax. If you walk onto burgos from the start where moulin rouge is then it's the first right turn, down there on the right. Kojax is upstairs XOXO is downstairs, Kojax is open Wed - Sat then XOXO opens Sun - Tues, same owners

Those or Plan B are the best ones

I'm selling my used Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini in good condition for 2,500 pesos (or highest offer) in Manila, please pm me.

cebu vs manila.

discuss. just as many good bars?

No. Not even close

Will double barrel reloaded affect the safety in general. Compared to like pablo escobar

I will be in Manila for a two week period in the near future and would very much appreciate up to date information on the following points -

1. Which casinos are currently offering Poker Texas Holden NL.
2. As a foreigner will a passport suffice for identification to play at the casinos or will I need more than one form of identification ?
3. Is there a poker Holden NL game being played 24/7 or is it mainly evenings ?
4. Are drinks and food free if you are gambling in the casinos ?
5. What comps do you received from having a players card ?
6. Are there television facilities in the poker rooms to watch live sports events ?
7. Are the casinos air conditioned - do they get cold at times ?
8. Do the casinos have free wi-fi
9. Do any of the casinos have facilities for you to charge your phone at the poke table ?
10. Can you eat food at the poker table at any of the casinos ?

Thank you very much for the information guys.

1)Solaire, city of Dreams and Resort's world, there are also quite a few poker clubs(metro, masters and all in at least)
2)I have never had to show any id but if you young dude then passport would be sufficient
3)some games might last all night(and some start early as noon(though prolly not very good ones) but offcourse evenings are the 'peak hours'
4)depends on place but basic drinks tends to be free(cod and solaire have some free beers but resort's world it is bit expensive), you might get some 'free' food at poker clubs(not casinos) if you play at least 50/100
5) only resort's world give you points for poker and not too many but if you play other casino games as well you might wanna check their promotions
6)most not but some might(clubs and i think there was some basketball game at cod sometimes)
7)Yes all air conditioned so you might need to bring your jacket even when it is hot outside
8)yup thought don't expect high speed
9)Usually not in table but they usually have some short of charging station( or if you play 'high stake' you might be able to borrow power bank at least in CoD)
10)Yes at least if you order from their expensive restaurants

Looking to trade online $ for pesos, can give vig. PM me.

Looks like Partypoker pulled out of the Phils

I'm doing some googling and wtf, what is so good about the Benguet province? HDI is reeeeeally high

2 Metro Manila (region) 0.837 Saudi Arabia
3 Batanes 0.820 Latvia
4 Ilocos Norte 0.813 Kuwait
5 Rizal 0.763 Venezuela
6 Cavite 0.737 Algeria

Anybody ever been to Baguio ? (it's the biggest city in the province)

That's where the weed is...coincidence...I think not.

Baguio has got a great climate and scenery but in typical Philippine fashion it's ghetto af.
I was legit sad when I visited there because the place has so much potential. University town, killer weather, mountains, etc... But jeepney's black smoke everywhere and air pollution it was just a turn off.
Keep driving past baguio though and there is some great country.

Where in Manila can you exchange Argentinian Pesos? All banks or exchange offices I've checked don't accept it. I have 400 Argentinian Pesos that I want to get rid of no matter what rate.

Very hard to exchange exotics in places like PI.

Try ebay

I hate having spare coins at the end of trips
really rustles my jimmies.

When there's no way to exchange it, I just give it to people as souvenirs.

I dont use coins in PH, annoying to have them in my pocket since i dont use a wallet, so I put them all in a paper bag and usually give them to the cleaning staff in my hotel or apartment. But think ill give it to one of those people that sleep on the street this time

+1. although they usually end up all on my floor for a month

Use Uber to get around and you won't deal with cash or coins as much, trips can be automatically charged to your bank card. It's often cheaper than taxi too.

nah its more expensive most of the time, they upped the prices by a lot just recently

With surge pricing, or always? In BKK I feel like it's 20% cheaper when no surge, and about the same or 10% more up to about 1.4x surge

you live in Philippines fulltime now dace?

Baguio is one of the greatest cities to visit in the Philippines.

There are many reasons why the Americans chose Baguio over all others as a base for their R&R. Next time take a visit to Camp John Hay if you aren't comfortable with a more rural experience.

a filipina friend told me that uber is the most expensive option these days, grab should be cheaper even. Regular Manila taxis are just super cheap
