Average cost

[NateD]

Hey All,

I was just wondering: what was the average cost of a trip to the Philippines for, say, two weeks?  Just trying to do some planning...way ahead of time  Gotta start saving sometime, you know

Thanks,
NateD

You could get by on much less. It depends a lot of course on where you are going, North Louzon is much cheeper than Boracay, Manila or Cebu.
If you went up to Sagada $20 a day would be plenty and includes all the hash you can consume.

I was wondering if he was talking corned beef or salmon hash. Guess it's been a while since the 60s.

..are long gone, thankfully.  All I miss is the music (and the ability to get by on 3 hours of sleep).

Some day I hope to go diving with Hum, maybe at Alona; he hasn't been there yet.  I'll roll him a native leaf tobacci cigar and see how he likes it.
