This week we leave beautiful
Palawan and go on to the unexplored south of Mindoro:
Bulalacao.
Even though Bulalacao is not the most visited destination in the
Philippines, it's definately worth a visit.

General information:
The hotel we stayed is
South Drive.
http://www.bulalacaomindoro.com/bulalacao-southdrive-grill--homestay
.html
If you want to stay really in the village, this is the only guesthouse at the moment. There are also two resorts on the main land:
Felipa
Lodge and a resort that the owners of the South Drive are building.
On one of the islands is the Tambaron
Green Beach resort.
Our tour was arranged by South Drive. The boy and the girl guiding us were really cool! And they were so obviously enjoying showing us around, I can only advise you to go with them and have fun :)
The island tours (you don't see it obviously in the movie, but we did two separate boatrides) were arranged by South Drive. But you can also walk to the shore and ask the boatmen to take you.
Want to know more about our travel expenses and some tips and tricks?!

Philippines Travel Guide Tips and
Advice Questions to sean@BADLADZ.com!
Here's some travel trips about the Philippines.
It's best when you arrive here to have some kind of a destination.
Don't come here with no idea about where you're going to stay. If you wander around, looking for somewhere to stay, you'll make yourself a target.
Before you come, pick a hotel or somewhere to stay before you arrive. This will enhance your safety.
Once you have that, then you can get yourself organised and you'll have a safe spot to base yourself from.
When you come to the Philippines, you don't need to bring much. What you want to bring is stuff that's waterproof. It's rains here, you'll be riding in boats, on the back of motorcycles, you'll be on the beach, etc. You want a bag that's waterproof.
Don't fill your bag up before you go. Bring as little as possible. You can get everything you need here.
That's a couple of Philippines travel guide tips.
Check out #2 and #3 for more travel advice and tips.
Quick Tips:
1.
Whenever you get a taxi in the Philippines, always make sure the meter is turned on and that your taxi driver knows where you are going.
2.
Money changers in
Manila have tricks to give you less money than you gave them, and they have tricks to slip bills under the table without you noticing! Keep a close eye on their bills and their hands!
3. Be careful giving money to street people when you travel in the Philippines. For one, you are just perpetuating a problem. You can also pull out your wallet to help and find it snatched out of your hands and halfway down the street before you can shout '
Stop!'
4. Wear your backpack on your front when on public transportation in Manila. Even if you think you're being careful, a tourist who's rucksack is on their
... ruck... is a tempting target.
5. If you have trouble with the Philippines police, pay the first person who stops you for anything. The longer you wait, the more people will get involved, and everyone will need a bribe to forget they saw you.
6.
Insect repellent - BRING SOME or
BUY SOME in the Philippines-
After dark mosquitos can be voracious little bloodsuckers and they'll dive-bomb straight for your ankles!

The key to traveling in the Philippines is to always travel light. The lighter the things you carry are, the less punishment your body gets. Especially when traveling to the mountains here in the Philippines or hiking, the extra weight would bring you down and make you get tired faster. When you travel in the Philippines, there’s going to be lots of places you want to go to. So if you have a lot of things with you, you’re going to need a place where you can leave unnecessary stuff from your pack before traveling again. I will give you travel light packing essentials so you don’t have to wonder what to bring.
I certainly understand that a lotta people don't want to plan their vacations too much, wanna be a bit more spontaneous, wanna rock n roll. I understand it, I do it myself, but you want to plan a few things.
You want the right gear. Waterproof backpack. If a laptop, then a small one. Swimsuit. Micro-towel.
Focus on nice, lightweight stuff. Get wrinkle free and you won't have to worry about ironing.
There's great adventure here, but you wanna be able to pack light and fast. Packing light will make everything easier.
It's one of the best Philippines travel advice tips to remember.
One of the bags that you hang around your waist for your phone, wallet, cash, etc.
If you can buy it in your country, you can buy it here. You can buy Macbooks, bottled water, batteries, etc.
Everything you can get here, so pack light. And everything's cheap here. Laundry is cheap so you won't have to do any laundry.
2 or 3 changes of clothes. MAYBE a change of pants but not really necessary. This is the second video in the Philippines travel guide series.
Quick Tips:
1.
Whenever you get a taxi in the Philippines, always make sure the meter is turned on and that your taxi driver knows where you are going.
2.

Philippines Travel Guide #3 - Tips and Advice for the Philippines
Stay in
Puerto Galera -
http://badladz.com/
Here's another video for the
Philippines travel guide series.
Another reason why you want pack light in the Philippines is that the transportations system here is NOT seamless.
It's not like the
West.
To any destination, you may have to take 3 or 4 different types of transportation.
To really enjoy yourself in the Philippines, pack
LIGHT. You'll have less to carry and less to worry about. 1 backpack is ideal.
Don't flash your expensive stuff around and look like you know where you're going. Another reason it's good to pack light is that people will think there's nothing worth stealing from you.
When you get here,
DON'T put your luggage into the boot of the taxi. They have been known to drive off as soon as the boot is shut. If that happens, you'll never see your luggage again. The value of your luggage is more than the taxi driver will make in a year or two.
Quick Tips:
1.
Whenever you get a taxi in the Philippines, always make sure the meter is turned on and that your taxi driver knows where you are going.
2.
Money changers in
Manila have tricks to give you less money than you gave them, and they have tricks to slip bills under the table without you noticing! Keep a close eye on their bills and their hands!
3. Be careful giving money to street people when you travel in the Philippines. For one, you are just perpetuating a problem. You can also pull out your wallet to help and find it snatched out of your hands and halfway down the street before you can shout '
Stop!'
4. Wear your backpack on your front when on public transportation in Manila. Even if you think you're being careful, a tourist who's rucksack is on their
... ruck... is a tempting target.
5. If you have trouble with the Philippines police, pay the first person who stops you for anything. The longer you wait, the more people will get involved, and everyone will need a bribe to forget they saw you.
6.
Insect repellent - BRING SOME or

As always, keep your wits about you.

Packing light is great! It gives your taxi driver less temptation to steal from you or rip you off. (You'll just look like a poor backpacker!)
All the same... Here's some tips to help make your taxi experiences as simple as possible when you travel in the Philippines
1. Get a taxi in the 'departures' area of the airport
In most international airports the 'arrivals' pickup area is filled with scammers and bad taxi drivers. They've got a continual stream of desperate travelers asking them for rates so they know they can typically quote an insanely high price and still get a passenger.
The departures area is different. These taxi drivers are just dropping off their riders at the airport and are happy to get anyone into their taxi for the drive back into town. Because of this, prices will be lower and you're less likely to find someone trying to drain your wallet of all that foreign currency you just filled it with.
2. Know where you are going before getting in the cab
If you don't know where you are going it's all too easy for you taxi driver to rip you off. They can drive you around in circles, tell you there is traffic on the main route, or even drive you to the other side of town!
Don't give them this opportunity. If your taxi driver sees that you have a map, he'll be less likely to drive you in circles.
3. Don't put your bag in the trunk
It happens all the time. An unknowing tourist puts their bag in the back of an unknown cab and their driver hits the gas before they hop in the passengers seat. Their bag is gone, they have no idea where it's headed, and the police won't help at all!
Keep in mind, the things in your bag may be worth more than your driver will earn in a year
or two! Don't tempt them into an early 'bonus'.
Losing your luggage and passport on arrival to a new country is a great way to ruin your vacation.

wn.com/Philippines Travel Guide 3 Tips And Advice For The Philippines
Stay in
Puerto Galera -
http://badladz.com/
Here's another video for the
Philippines travel guide series.
Another reason why you want pack light in the Philippines is that the transportations system here is NOT seamless.
It's not like the
West.
To any destination, you may have to take 3 or 4 different types of transportation.
To really enjoy yourself in the Philippines, pack
LIGHT. You'll have less to carry and less to worry about. 1 backpack is ideal.
Don't flash your expensive stuff around and look like you know where you're going. Another reason it's good to pack light is that people will think there's nothing worth stealing from you.
When you get here,
DON'T put your luggage into the boot of the taxi. They have been known to drive off as soon as the boot is shut. If that happens, you'll never see your luggage again. The value of your luggage is more than the taxi driver will make in a year or two.
Quick Tips:
1.
Whenever you get a taxi in the Philippines, always make sure the meter is turned on and that your taxi driver knows where you are going.
2.
Money changers in
Manila have tricks to give you less money than you gave them, and they have tricks to slip bills under the table without you noticing! Keep a close eye on their bills and their hands!
3. Be careful giving money to street people when you travel in the Philippines. For one, you are just perpetuating a problem. You can also pull out your wallet to help and find it snatched out of your hands and halfway down the street before you can shout '
Stop!'
4. Wear your backpack on your front when on public transportation in Manila. Even if you think you're being careful, a tourist who's rucksack is on their
... ruck... is a tempting target.
5. If you have trouble with the Philippines police, pay the first person who stops you for anything. The longer you wait, the more people will get involved, and everyone will need a bribe to forget they saw you.
6.
Insect repellent - BRING SOME or
BUY SOME in the Philippines-
After dark mosquitos can be voracious little bloodsuckers and they'll dive-bomb straight for your ankles!
As always, keep your wits about you.

Packing light is great! It gives your taxi driver less temptation to steal from you or rip you off. (You'll just look like a poor backpacker!)
All the same... Here's some tips to help make your taxi experiences as simple as possible when you travel in the Philippines
1. Get a taxi in the 'departures' area of the airport
In most international airports the 'arrivals' pickup area is filled with scammers and bad taxi drivers. They've got a continual stream of desperate travelers asking them for rates so they know they can typically quote an insanely high price and still get a passenger.
The departures area is different. These taxi drivers are just dropping off their riders at the airport and are happy to get anyone into their taxi for the drive back into town. Because of this, prices will be lower and you're less likely to find someone trying to drain your wallet of all that foreign currency you just filled it with.
2. Know where you are going before getting in the cab
If you don't know where you are going it's all too easy for you taxi driver to rip you off. They can drive you around in circles, tell you there is traffic on the main route, or even drive you to the other side of town!
Don't give them this opportunity. If your taxi driver sees that you have a map, he'll be less likely to drive you in circles.
3. Don't put your bag in the trunk
It happens all the time. An unknowing tourist puts their bag in the back of an unknown cab and their driver hits the gas before they hop in the passengers seat. Their bag is gone, they have no idea where it's headed, and the police won't help at all!
Keep in mind, the things in your bag may be worth more than your driver will earn in a year
or two! Don't tempt them into an early 'bonus'.
Losing your luggage and passport on arrival to a new country is a great way to ruin your vacation.
