Owning a Property { HELP NEEDED PLEASE!}

[fred]

Funny you say that Graham and Im going to start a whole new thread on the subject at some point to get some general input and critique on a project we are probably going to begin this year..
Nothing to do with my Opium patch but more to do with my idea of starting a secure camp-site for backpackers or just about anyone that is put off visiting by the extortionately high accommodation rates here on Panglao island ..
Cheers,
Fred.

love it Fred, we always get that with the little kids, reminded me so much of our house parties with the extra kids from nowhere lol

I know.. We had around 60 visitors after inviting around 10 !!
The more the merrier I suppose!
We just had to lay on another 5 pots of rice and 3 large BBQ`d fish..Probably sufficient for 5 thousand,just in case.

starting a secure camp-site for backpackers

Very good ideaOnly ever met one person in Pinas packing a tent however,you might have to supply them, also having showers on site and a communal area(backpackers/gap year students are sociable creatures) with lockers for individuals valuables?

Tawi.. The idea is to produce tents of all sizes (up to army size)complete with Japanese style futons (beds) with electric fans and LED lighting and a really nice shower and CR block..
Also large native roofed style eating area/bar.. To start with we will get a full time BBQ guy/girl to provide food / breakfast etc.
Later plans to open kids adventure play ground.. Might even build some native cottages for those that prefer extra comfort sometime in the future...
The family own about 4 hectares here so plenty of room..
Cheers,
Fred.
