Anyway, a quick intro.... I'm off to meet my much better half's family in less than 2 weeks now, flying with Emirates to Manila and then down to Tarlac for a few days. We are then off to Port Barton in Palawan for 10 days.
Just a few questions, if I may impose on my first post?
Is it traditional for me to take gifts for the family, and if so do you have any suggestions?
Any ideas of the cost of living in the Port Barton area, I understand that credit/debit cards are not generally accepted and it's cash only. How much should I take to feed 6 of us for 10 days, obviously allowing a budget for trips and souvenirs.
Sorry to start my first post with questions, but as I said I wish I'd discovered this site months ago! Hopefully I'll be able to contribute more to the site as time goes on with answering other members questions.
Nice to meet you all,
Simon
