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.
As always, keep your wits about you. Enjoy the Philippines travel tips, and if you have any more, send them to sean@badladz.com!

I've been told that if I take my iPhone to the Philippines, when it connects to a tower, it will start costing me a lot of money because I am not on a phone plan over there. How do I avoid this?

Turn the IPhone off. Use a cheap Philippine phone when here, about $20 with sim card and load
