    If you want city life and 15minutes after probinsya life go to butuan.

    Pero pag gusto mo probinsya talaga go to hinatuan and bislig.

    Hinatuan for the enchanted river

    Bislig for the tinuy-an falls.

    Dinededma ko na beach dahil sa dalawa na yan.

    Traffic in Manila must really be that bad.

    It wasn't so bad then. I recall after a (HS) soccer match at UST, some of my teammates and I walked from UST to the Manila City Hall. The traffic moved fast enough to generate a breeze to cool us off, somewhat. We were still sweaty when we arrived at the City Hall. So, we kept walking. We stopped next in front of Philippine Women's University. We were still sweaty. So, we kept going. By the time we were dry enough to board a jeepney, we were at Harrison Plaza. Then, we parted ways at Baclaran. It was a good walk. But, at least, the traffic moved along.

    Hmm...in this weather, if the combined heat/rain/humidity doesn't kill you, the pollution will ^_^

    i'm not sure about other parts of MM, but imho depende sa oras sir. If not rush hour, Taft Ave./Manila traffic is actually quite light; on EDSA, if i can catch a ride before 5pm, travel time is only 1-1.5 hours, ang luwag pa ng bus.

    Traffic along Taft Ave. cor Buendia has progressively gotten worse. The cause(bus terminals) is obvious, but nobody seems to be bringing up the subject. Pati traffic coming from Buendia-Makati apektado na -- these days a lot of people get off at Bautista and walk to Taft.

    if you go out of your comfort neighborhood, i am confident you will encounter working lifters. many of the petrons have, sir, with hecho derecho promos, even, ... i watch 'em do it, so's i am sure i get what i pay for.

    4 bus terminals + de facto illegal jeepney and FX terminal = traffic.
    matagal na at pa-ulit-ulit na po itong na-ere sa radyo. it would appear, political will is lacking...

    the edsa-approaching taft traffic is another such issue.
    if i remember, the pasay segment of the mrt was originally planned as an elevated segment. what happened?

    Our games at UST long ago were on weekends. So, yeah. The traffic wasn't too bad. The heat and humidity weren't too bad either because I spent so much time outdoors. My body equalized itself to the climate. I was a wiry young dude without an ounce of fat. We were already drenched in sweat from the game. No shower rooms or change of clothes. So, everyone went home right after the game. We actually welcomed any rain. The pollution part is true. I wiped myself with my handkerchief often. There was always a grimy, tar-like streak on it.

    Siargao are for the loner or who wants inner peace. Boracay crowd will not enjoy there. Ang dami australiano nag-asawa ng pinay para makabili resort. I stayed at siargao for 3 days ang sarap halos solo ko beach.

    Surigao del norte the city proper lagi umuulan jan.

    Pero i enjoyed more sa butuan going to hinatuan and bislig.

    Ang iba lang sa province yung tubig sa shower parang ang tagal bumula nung dala ko soap at shampoo. Meron something sa water system nila na iba sa metro manila.
