Hi there,

I’ve been wanting to visit the Philippines for a while. I need a stable connection to make skype calls and get my work done. I have some questions:

• If I’d spend a total of 2/ 3 months there, and would stay minimum 3 weeks and max 1.5 months in one place, which would you advise me to visit?
• Any coworking spaces in those places? How is the Wifi availability in cafe’s/ restaurants?
• Places to absolutely avoid?
• Is it safe for a woman alone?
• Is it easy to meet other nomads there?
• Is it easy to mingle with locals?
• What was your average spending per month?
• Best time to visit?
• Any major events that I should experience?
• How’s the food?
• Any other Philippines tips?

I know some of these questions are relative, but please give me your own honest opinion and advice.

Thanks!
Rosanna

My wife and I are planning on spending a month or two in the Philippines from mid December through mid January. We have many teammates there and plan to travel to meet each of them, but want a ‘home base’ for the duration of the stay.

We love being near the beach, stand up paddle boarding, we are novice surfers and we enjoy being able to walk around and access local restaurants, stores, shops, beaches, etc.

Internet speeds don’t worry us much as we lived in Mexico last year and dealt with slow internet without issue.

Access to healthy/organic foods is a big plus for us…

Just trying to figure out if anyone has any insight on these two option in the Philippines that may help us make a decision.

Thanks!
