    cebu w/ 2 expat girls

    hello,

    we're 2 expats girls in their very early 30's, we're going to the philippines from 21 MAY to 24 MAY. we got a really good package = cathay flight + spa on the beach (close to cebu, away from the crowds) for approx 3600HKD each tax included.

    we're looking for more travel companions to join. preferably - single, male (28 to 35), straightforward, laid back & quick-witted.

    pm me if interested to join (& u fairly certain u meet the criteria), will then pass u on to our travel agent.

    cheers,
    vriti

    'Tis a shame that I am married, female, beats around the bush all the time, highly strung and have absolutely no sense of humour.

    Could have been a privilege to join you guys!

    Just as a "head's up", the Philippines charges airport taxes to leave. Have to pay in cash.

    I hate having to do that. Wish they would just stick it in the price of the ticket. We flew Cebu Pacific, but assume the policy is the same for everyone.

    what happens if you don't have any cash? fortunately we had enough, but had to forgo a sandwich as a result... not that the cafes offer much!

    I once had to give some money to 3 guys who had spent their last bit of money on a final drink the night before without knowing about the tax. Note that as foreigners we get of lightly - the tax for Filipinos is much much higher.

    You can also pay in Hong Kong dollars, I have done that at Cebu airport (the exchange rate is lousy though).

    Single - I can be if you want me to be so Check
    Male - Was last time I looked so thats a Check.
    28-35 - Fail
    Straightforward - I don't tend to beat around the bush no pun in so thats a Check
    Laid Back- Anymore laid back and I'd be horizontal so thats a check
    Quick-witted - Only if they're worth the chase. Partial Check.
