Olddaddy Posted August 15 Author Posted August 15 I'm starting to think that the Philippines ( Manila) is cheaper than Thailand particularly Bangkok I was in a big bar playing with a live band tonight in Poblacion a suburb of Manila I got confused with the prices thinking that pesos are the same as Thai baht I paid 1299 pesos for this big tower of beer 🍺 🍺. Which is around 650 Thai baht vinapu, FunFifties and Mavica 3 Quote
Olddaddy Posted August 15 Author Posted August 15 Manila is cheaper than Bangkok I guess Cebu would be more expensive being a tourist city Manila takes sometime to get use to , it looks like Detroit in America vinapu and Mavica 2 Quote

Popular Post floridarob Posted August 15 Popular Post Posted August 15 2 hours ago, Olddaddy said: Manila is cheaper than Bangkok Food, Taxi/grab, hotels....no Real cute guys that are "escorts" will ask about the same as Thailand....freelancers less. If you go to a go-go type bar in Manila, they're more like fichero bars in Mexico, the mostly straight guys will milk you to buy overpriced drinks all night long, your bill won't be correct because they'll put more drinks than you really had, promising to have sex with you when they're off work and most won't, because they are really straight...or will quote you some ridiculous price, maybe 10% will really go and be worth it. I stick between freelance and reasonably prices escorts there... lot's of free guys, but too much drama of looking for love (green card/visa). mauRICE, vinapu, KeepItReal and 4 others 6 1 Quote

Olddaddy Posted August 16 Author Posted August 16 The difference I noticed in Filipino vs Thai people are ..Filipinos are loud ...rude .....they think nothing of playing their YouTube without earphones on planes ,🛩️✈️ restaurants etc so everyone else can hear it . They love noise beep beep, They let their kids run around screaming noisily scream 📢🔊🔕👂even the women scream Annoying constantly saying SIR on a twangy American accent I find THAIS 🇹🇭 more "chilled" if that's the word Oh fuck it ...im going back to Thailand 🇹🇭 If you don't like it ..... LEAVE!🏃♂️🏃♂️leave !! FunFifties, Pantherz and vinapu 3 Quote
