      There is a lot to see here Don and each area has its unique personality. I became too comfortable in the city so good to get out a bit.

      Just one question for the evening if you don't mind answering. .
      If I bought a used motorcycle in the Philippines would I need the full government issued title in order to go island hopping, or whatever paperwork from the dealer be sufficient. . Thanks

    • @AmazingPhilippines1
      @AmazingPhilippines1  7 лет назад

      I am not sure of the answer but I think the dealer issued paperwork is sufficient as it often takes quite some time for the actual title to be issued. I am not the expert though. You might ask one of the Mike at My Philippine Journey.

      Yes, thanks. They started a new fast ferry from the west side of the island the day I left also and it comes back to the small pier next to the Yacht Club on Mactan Island near the bridge from Cebu City.

    Life cannot be any sweeter on Sweet Potato Island (camote) . This seems like an ideal location to leased a beachfront lot and setup one of those Kyoob modular homes featured in your previous vlog. Safe travels....

    I’d love to know if there’s flooding during typhoons and the elevation of various places. It looks kind of flat, which is scary, but in poro you were climbing a hill away from the ocean which is good. I’d want to be 30+ feet above the ocean.

      I am told it has "developed" enormously in the last 3 years and the infra- structure is trying to catch up.
      I think the population and tourism is going to continue to increase on these smaller islands for better or worse.

    Rod! Camotes Islands consists those 4 Islands which called several names depending whom you ask but the names are the smallest up there is Tulang island or islet. Then this San Fransisco island is called Pacijan Island by it`s name. The town it`s called shortly in everyday speaks San Fran. Poro Island...is just Poro as the town also ( for us Finns it`s in our language as reindeer :) ) I don`t know another name but as always these Proud to be Porohanon citizens ( the most friendly people in whole Philippines! ) they might have some short "nickname" for it...maybe Po? hehe. Then is that Pilar which is the name of the town in Ponson Island where is a ferry from Tudela town and also from Ormoc Leyte.

      I hope to travel a bit including trips to the USA but am "comfortable" in this culture. I have PhilHealth and Medicare. Medicare facilities on Guam are the closest is my understanding.
