My Holiday Experience In The Philippines by mightiersa: 11:38am On Sep 28, 2015
Weeks before taking my flight from Murtala Mohammed airport, Lagos... I had read several materials on the net just to get myself familiar theoretically with the country. I left Lagos via Qatar airline and it was all nice. In just almost 2 hours stop over in Doha, I wondered why the best airport in Nigeria was as that low aesthetically, poor maintenance wise and terrible relationship between the travellers and the law enforcement agents.
My 9 hours journey from Doha, Qatar to Manila, Philippines was not as interesting compared to the 7 hours flight from Lagos to Doha. I didn't like the seat allocated to me and the plane was just too big... One has to queue up in order to make use of lavatory.
Philippines here I come! Landing safely in Terminal 1 airport in Manila brought me a great relief from long hours of sitting... The customs and the immigration officers on ground were hospitable and carried out their duties with high level of maturity and respect.
Philippines is a third world country in ranking; the same category with Nigeria. I still wonder why Nigeria government cannot provide us with uninterrupted power supply, readily available portable water, pot-holes free highways and better medical care when all these are properly put in place by the Philippines government?
It's four days now and I can see that Nigeria is far behind this country with little or no resources.
......I'm tired of typing... I would have say more

Lol..... Is it a woman that's going to get me pregnant?


The op is a male but he doesn't look like someone who is capable of doing such...

Beautiful country. Lived there for about 7 months and enjoyed every but of it.

@ OP, there are many places to explore beyond Manila area. Subic has great resorts, Baler is a surfers paradise and Lake Taal in Tagaytay is a sight to behold. If you are a water freak like me, get your divers license and snorkel as much as you can.

Such paradise...

Visiting the Asian Medical Center today for a medical check up made another clear evidence that the medical care here is superb.. The environment is like a 5 star hotel... One can hardly smell bad odour. And the service is cheap. Consultancy fee is just 500 peso (about 2000 naira)... Expect more pictures tomorrow.

Well, I'm here with a tourist visa.... I got invitation letter from a relative that works in Philippines... Then went to their embassy in Abuja to apply for visa.
I don't know if the processing will be different if one is applying for any other type of visa ( student, business and so on)
I hope this piece helps in a bit!
Thanks

The Philippines is a nice country to visit from what my Filipino friends said, and from what I watched on TV. Enjoy your vacation, bro. Please, don't go to Mindanao cos it's the stronghold of their own Boko Haram. There are sweet 'daughters of Eve' there, yeah? I used to be a sucker for Filipinas because they're personable, amiable, neat, and are easy to maintain. Let me add they're good at doing housework and good in bed. Have fun, bro. Be wary of pickpockets lurking around crowded places.
