The Philippines is an amazing archipelago comprising 7,107 islands, home to the Thrilla in Manila<\/strong> and jam packed with party hungry Hotties<\/strong>. A gem to say the least… Feels a little cowboy at first, but turns out that is definitely part of the charm. In fact, a rain of impressions will take you in a storm. If you haven’t yet seen a whole family riding on a scooter, here you can. The streets of Manila are busy, at times manic, but in all this chaos you should already feel adventure luring around every corner<\/strong>. The contrast between high-end society and the poor takes a little getting used to, but it is strangely engaging at the same time. So, if you can’t stomach the odd slum yard popping up around the corner or see roosters in cages braising in the sun (possibly getting them insanely prepared for a cock fight), then don’t make Manila your destination – even though it’s pretty much a sure thing that this is common all over the place.<\/p>\n

\n\"River<\/p>\n

Don’t let this put you off. A true Yellow Fever manic will even love this. Got to give credit to the dude in the canoe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The girls and the nightlife
of the Philippines<\/h2>\n

The girls in the Philippines are an intriguing mix of typical South East Asian looks<\/strong> with the occasional pinch of Mediterranean<\/strong>. Fiery Latina look-alikes in the Philies? Well, we’d assume it’s linked to the fact that the Spaniards have set mark back in 1521 (feeling like a history lesson? The name Philippines is derived from that of King Philip II of Spain). This also resulted in the country having become heavily catholic and it’s not hard to oversee. As an example, Jeepney’s<\/strong>, an American reminiscent from World War II are occasionally plastered with ‘religious merchandise’<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The last to expect from this though is a bunch of frigid girls. They do know their parties<\/strong> and as you might imagine are pretty open minded<\/strong>, yet modest<\/strong> and talking from experience, heavily flirtatious<\/strong>. It doesn’t take more than a walk through one of those numerous Super-Kick-Ass-Malls to catch some girls eyes, be acknowledged with a ‘Hello Sir’<\/em><\/strong> and a bright smile. Admittedly, you never exactly know, if they’re just being kind, excited or going to offer you a massage<\/strong>. Either way it’s great stuff we’d say. Now, don’t misconceive that with references to the typical Thai experience. Speaking the obvious, both are different countries and different people for sure.<\/p>\n

\n\"Friendly,<\/p>\n

Friendly, modest and flirtatious. Maybe not the stereotype Filipina, but that’s what it felt like.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Nightlife<\/strong> is pretty much a 24\/7<\/strong> occurrence too. You may find yourself in a live music pub with a very local flair, packed out with people who just want to have a smashing time. The area around the Green Belt<\/strong> is a great place to start. It is as much a shopping centre complex, as it has restaurants and bars, some of them a little more raunchy such as the Caf\u00e9 Havana<\/strong> to get that Asian Yellow Fever to boiling point<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Later that night you can always track down some high-end club close to Mall of Asia<\/strong> such as LAX<\/strong>. Manila simply delivers – a city of mind boggling proportions and some real heavy party pockets. Depending on the location, drinks are so cheap that you won’t remember much of any night if you’re not careful. Of course, we want to advise you to watch it a little.<\/p>\n
