I think i can be snobby if i want!. Considering im paying for everything and that i am travelling alone to the Philippines on my own for the first time.

Im not going to be meeting his family when Im there and he doesnt have his own property as he is only home for 12 weeks of the year, so staying with him isn't an option. Do you not think that i would love to stay at his family home if i could, of course I would but on this occasion its just not practical

And, he is really looking forward to staying in a nice hotel as he lives in a cabin the size of a shoe box for 10 months at a time.

Im a snob and proud of it!!
