      @@比特币英雄 Yeah that is a downside of the Philippines especially in the province areas. Locals can stay for $8-10 a night but with no aircon, no hot water, and only a thin foam pad mattress. In Cebu City you can get a decent room for $30 a night with free breakfast, but even in Davao City you're getting a 1 star room for $25, and the nice rooms at the Marco Polo are $200 a night and there is not much available in the middle of those extremes. Maybe some AirBnB condo rentals are a better value.

    You can rent a boarding house room in most small cities for about
    3000 pesos a month, but most foreigners do not know this
    There are three rent prices in a lot of the philippines citys.
    Filipino, chinese, and americano.

    Hey Scotty boy 😊 I'll be interested in what you think of the towns in Samar if you are not 'clicking' with the towns you are passing through so far. Perhaps just the country side will make you feel better as the towns in Samar are worse than you seem to have experienced so far. It's the people that make up for it but in my experience, English won't help you much there as you will give most people 'nose bleeds' when trying to speak English there. I was fine as I was with my Fiancee but it may be hard on your own. Best of luck my friend. The Bicol region is on my list of places to visit in southern Luzon so I can't wait....
