    So, did we spend too much or is Philippines the ultimate cheap travel destination?? We partnered with SafetyWing - the ultimate safety net for travellers - Check it out 👉safetywing.com/nomad-insurance/?referenceID=thebomsaway&campaign=april-2024-yt&Ambassador

    This is quite possibly your USP, explaining your expense report and sharing it as a link is so awesome... Love the transparency.... And I'm always here for the bloopskis PS: Eric looks huge sitting behind Sarah in the scooter😂

    Thanks Harish! I'm so glad you think so. We like to be transparent with our costs - it's so hard to find any clear information online. Haha everytime we piece the bloopskis together, we're thinking of you 🤗 Also, yes, this makes Eric look like a giant 😂

    It is costly because they were all over and Coron is really expensive $500. You can do this cheaper if you take inter island ferries and go do RORO (roll on and roll off with a vehicle)

    Which is why we said you’d have to budget more as a solo traveller. But for our budget of our experience, halving the total cost is what we paid per person!

    Just add the other half of the accommodations cost to the single person cost. Single = Aprox $2,450 per 30 days. They did say this was specific to them and the sweetspot was 4 ppl too.

    Sorry to break it to you guys but you got robbed. You overpaid on accommodations for sure, $1226 is waaaaaay to high. Eating shouldn't of been over $800 either but I guess if you lived here you could get that cost down. That trip should've been around $2500 at the max lol
