But don't let yourself get too concerned, just don't flash the cash, or credit cards, don't hang around near an ATM if you have just taken out some cash, if you don't feel comfortable in a taxi get out first chance you get as long as you are not in the sticks.

Only take out enough for the night, and keep only one card on you preferably not in your wallet but somewhere it won't show through your jeans or trousers.

Basically just act like you would if you were somewhere a bit rough in the UK and you will almost always be fine.

But as I said Rizza will take of you she will have your safety at the top of her mind always!

Oh, I know I will be fine. Spent years going through a paranoid phase when I was into self protection and all the Martial Arts BS from back in the day. Not that a lot of that stuff isn't good, but I think it is not healthy to be on guard 24/7!

Going nowhere near Manila, other than the airport so not too worried there either. Cebu is where I will be, and a week in Valencia, Bukidnon. And whatever else in Camiguin. Not exactly Jolo, so should be fine And when I am in Valencia, I will probabl be in the company of Rizza's father and two brothers. So they will know of any local dangers and I think everything will be fine. I won't be flashing the cash and Rizza has already asked me to save and not go spend, spend, spend So, no worries
