Boracay travel-5 of the last of the long-winded

In the Philippines most inconvenient is that cash transactions. In the capital, Manila is also better, tourist areas of credit card use is extremely limited. General holiday resorts, restaurants, shops are basically don't accept credit cards, all cash transactions, not to mention the cash back this kind of service, but only a few ATM often fail. Not going out like me willing to take cash, often let themselves fall into the hands of cards is unable to pay the Bill. From this point, I prefer to North America.

The traffic situation in the Philippines is also very terror.

If you travel far distances, it is best to keep up with some tactical time, otherwise it is too easy to miss. Manila traffic phenomenon serious scandals than Beijing; taxi drivers don't like to play table, like China's small towns. Many seem to have almost 20 years of age in a private car is still on the road. One of the most distinctive than Jeepee. Jeepee is a modified Jeep after carriages to lengthen, you can squeeze in more than 20 people. The appearance of each Jeepee, decoration very fancy, is the embodiment of the driver's personality. There is obviously no Jeepee air conditioning, car Windows wide open on both sides, each side on a bench in the middle is a narrow aisle, passengers have to bow down before they can walk into the buttocks from car cars sit down. After boarding, passengers consciously take out fares to the driver, if you sit too long distance drivers, other passengers would consciously help pass fares to the driver; paying the fare is no ticket good take, all based on passengers and drivers of mutual trust between, but anyway few money, long before dozens of also, generally short of pesos only 10 pesos. Filled with passengers, the car door is fastened. Jeepee with bus, with a particular route; if passengers to get off at the nearest, shout in advance.

Food hygiene, the matter of opinion.

Sensitive such as I, err, also does not occur, such as food poisoning or diarrhea. But does anyone have the stomach to eat bad, this is the resort's staff told us. In my view, as long as you eat boiled things compares the security, although the surrounding fly insect really many, cats, dogs and more feet around.

Philippines were relatively simple, and there is no Muslim country so offensive.

Whether it is a small town in Tagaytay, or in Boracay Island, many local residents in the morning to see strange we will smile and good morning. There is nothing better than to reveal the white teeth smile face even more comfortable? though not everyone is going to speak English, but the basic communication is no problem.

While the Philippines is good, but I think we as non-accident won't go, maybe a little more modern areas more suitable for me.
