Bicol has Mayon Volcano the world's most perfectly cone shaped volcano.

And the Cagasawa ruins is unique in Asia for the Franciscans incorporating Mexican Baroque art in it when Mexicans landed in the Philippines, in which their first landing site is the Bicol Peninsula, before they proceed to Manila or Cebu.

You dont need to bring anything to a place where other human beings live comfortably.
Anything you need you can get there.
The only exception would be your luxury electronics, which have a very hefty import tax so they wind up costing 1/3rd more than anywhere else, so consider buying a new phone or laptop before you go to Philippines.

I recommend traveling as light as possible because you will likely try out several different places and want to move before you find somewhere quiet and good. Acceptable housing is always the biggest issue for me.

Dont bother with retired boomers. They are rotted and retarded. Let them waste away, they will only try to infect you with their regrets and disillusionment.

Dont bother with weird ethnic expats either. They are always doing some stupid scamming shit or involved with criminal activity. Every time. Every time. (Every single time).

The younger white crowd is only really present in Manila and Cebu. They arent wonderful people either but they come in a better variety than brown/yellow criminals and decaying boomers. Shitlib or chud, you can find both types. If you want normie faggots on vacation you can go to Palawan boracay or siargao. The later is the prime 20s crowd beach party spot, where you can enjoy getting mogged by 200cm tall Australian surfer chad millionaire trust fund kids and watching them run through all the tubby white backpacker girls and locals.

Fucked up the collage. Never mind, better that no one reads it.

If you want to hike in proper shoes and socks instead of barefoot in flip-flops, then yes you should bring good shoes and proper Western socks. Socks in Asia are utter garbage quality, and they smell horrible after a little sweating.

>>2916544
That reminds me. I went canyoneering and the shoes they lend you are pretty terrible. Walking for 3+ hours over 2 inch pebbles can get pretty painful towards the end and uncomfortable having tiny pebbles and sand get stuck every time you wade through water. I also almost lost 2 toenails from being compressed in the toe box.
I’ll go again but this time I’ll be taking my own shoes and a waterproof satchel for my phone.
Our guide was awesome and through a lot of the trek held it above water as we went through but I’d save them the hassle and the freedom to take my own shots at will. They give you water and a snack but I’d be bringing another bottle of water and some jerky or chocolate bar.

The Philippines is a disgusting disfunctional shit hole and so many of the people are miserable disrespectful slobs. It's just not worth putting up with unless you don't have other options.

>>2917255
Almost none of the previous threads involved any travel stories or planning. It's all posts like these >>2917255 armchair loungers arguing on and on about brown people and sex and paypigs from their mom's living room.

Retarded flip gf spent $100 on a fancy coffee maker.
She can barely cover her rent (and she shares a place with 3 other girls). Goddamn she’s dumb!
I’m not sure what to do with her. She’s very feminine, submissive, and sweet. Sex is good, she cums easy, etc. but she’s just painful dumb. It hurts my heart, desu. She’ll never make it in this world without a benevolent male influence to guide her. I actually wish she would find a nice Filipino guy to date.

>>2917266
I think part of the problem is that they are fluent in English so it's easier for them to talk and scam English speaking foreigners. I'm Chinese American and I get the same treatment in Vietnam since I look like them and I can understand their language. Whereas the language barrier in Thailand or whateva makes sure they are in their best behavior; whereas there are no communication barriers with Filipinos, hence it gives the illusion that they are scammy compared to other Asians but when you assimilate as a Viet for example, they are just as scammy as Filipinos, they just can't scam you that much since they can't speak your language, unlike Filipinos.

>>2917238
PH is not good value for the money, and there is nothing fun to do + the nightlife is fucking awful. So no, people don't go there anymore.

I live in north luzon and nothing new has been built in about 10 or 15 years, and the area I reside in is actively and rapidly decaying, with restaurants and establishments that cater to foreigners and retirees closing as a rapid pace. There are less foreigners around than ever before.

The koreans are also fucking off, because they are increasingly poor and fucked up due to how retarded and shitty their country is getting, and their younger crowd is not coming here to continue the tradition of giving up on korean women and fucking pinays.

Nobody is to blame except filipinos, who think that they can charge world class prices, for third world amenities and experiences.

>>2917405
Get the fuck out of my country. This is the thanks we get for dying for you en masse in World War 2 and the Cold War, you go and support the countries who just recently slaughtered you, Japan and Thailand or Korea and Taiwan which were either under the Japanese Empire or allief to them.

Get the fuck out!!! We should have never died for you. Only for you ingrate ass to enrich your butchers, Japan and Thailand first.

>>2917405
Yeah totally the Philippines' fault that we are an archipelago and since everything has to travel to a car, then a ship, then another car just to get to point B from point A making us more expensive than our one-landmass neighbors, since duh the next city is in another island!

>>2917266
Your country America and Japan is pure filth born in rebellion and proudly accepted the criminals and subhumans of the planet. Almost 100% of the population of America descend from former criminals who fled or betrayed their original home nation to "find a new life abroad" your natal origins alone say you were conceived in uttrt sin. How much more the current actions of America spreading death, destruction, war and genocide across the planet non atop for 250 years? yet you have the gal to accuse the Filipinos who havr done no such thing of being shitty when your people are literally guilty of genocide, consistently and continually.

Fuck you. Get out of my country. Americans have only pillaged and maltreated us since colonization times. I dont expect your behavior to change any time soon.

Look at the vast difference over how America treated its treaty ally and former colony the Philippines vs how America treated mass murderer of Americans, Japan. After World War 2, America forced the Bell Trade Act and Parity Rights agreement on Filipinos giving legal equality to Americans when it comes to having property rights with Filipinos in the Philippines, and part of the agreement, also stipulates unlimited money repatriation from the Philippines to America, in exchange for some paltry post World War 2 Reconstruction money. More money left the Philippines than entered it back when we needed reconsruction money the most!!!! Now what did America do to Japan? Gave them hundreds of billions in investments since the Korean War was near and they want to enrich Japan to supply the South Koreans, furthermore, Japan was free to reindustrialize using all the STOLEN MONEY Japan stole across Asia, and America gleefully agreed as long as Japan gave them a portion of the stolen money.

You are Satan's Empire on earth. You rewarded our loyalty and faithfullness to you by cutting deals with your's and or own enemies, since it is more convenient to split stolen money with an enemy than to help a faithful friend.

It just and righteous to expel all foreigners from the Philippines.

Experience has taught us that no matter how good a Christian you are following their religion (Arent we the sole Christian country in Asia) nay even how good and faithful your are. Satan incarnates like Americans would gladly throw you to the meat grinder and throw away their prinicipless over some Shekels.

>>2917238
IMHO, the Philippines is played out.

Peak Philippines was probably 2010-2019. It sputtered to life a bit immediately after covid in 2022, but it probably won't ever regain the same hype again.

During the pandemic, the scamming culture really took it into overdrive.

Back in the 2010-2020, the social media influence wasn't AS strong. Dating apps and FB were still somewhat kind of novel, and you didn't have a million vloggers shilling "it's my first time at Jollibee". Philippines still felt a bit raw at time, even places like Siargao.

Now, it's been 10 years of shilling the same shit, and people just got over it.

The Philippines is way past it's apex, at least in my timeline.

But then again, people have been saying that shit for years.

Could you imagine going in to a bar in Angeles city during the 1970's, pre internet, pre onlyfans simp culture?

At least I have children I can enjoy raising, instead of trying to chase the fun I had as a young man, because it's never gonna be the same. Just take 1 look at these dating groups/apps...."single mom, SUFFORT me and my CHELDREN, single mom, help me financial, gcash me"......back in my day, their really were teenage virgins on the dating apps willing to meet you. Now? Just a bunch of Indian dudes pretending to be old white guys. So weird but whatever

For any new visitors let me give you the backstory on this retard: he is a gay Filipino who solicits homosexual sex and encounters from straight white foreigners, and then he gets upset and comes here and has his weird meltdowns.

Basically, he is angry that we only fuck filipina women, and deny the men our large white cocks and enormous virile cumloads.
He is now too fat and old to crossdress and try to be a ladyboy, so his homorage and unrequited faglust for white men are compounded by his twinkdeath.
It is very likely he will never find another young white cock to suck ever again, and coming to terms with that fact has him down in the dumps and feeling very frustrated.

Filipino men are super duper gay, and retarded also, which is why their women casually get with foreigners without a second thought. Because we seem like ridiculously superior alpha chads by comparison with the male of the species.

The only reason to come here is if you have some sort of bleaching colonization fetish, because its still a no holds barred breeding fest in this silly shithole. I haven't used a condom in the 10ish years ive been living here, and am aware of 5 children I have fathered, but likely have many(many) more. I take care of 2 of them btw, the others their mom's found filipino cuck husbands to accept her and her hapa baby, and they dont want me involved.

Hey homopig I just thought of something. Maybe if you were willing to eat pussy (flips refuse to lick clit) you could get access to the foreigner cum you need? Think about it and best of luck in your sperm quest.

>>2917418
STFU you idiot, no one is interested in your criminal bloodline, except perhaps whores and fellow criminals you have sex with. Anyway Trump is destroying America with his tantrums, I can't wait for your Satanic Empire to fall.

>>2917417
The trick these days is to date the single moms and then date their "virgin" daughters after you lay some pipe in that milf pussy and make her think shes special.

A pinay will accept any situation to keep a white man and the potential he represents in her life.

As always, there are no rules at all here, so just do what you want and filipinos will go along with it, since you are the authority and arbiter in most cases. Just act like its normal and it will be treated as normal.

Case in point: a decaying old fuck I know has a penthouse where he has sequestered a trio of smoking hot teenagers and just pays for everything for them as long as they don't date. He keeps them in college and supports all their families. He spends a few days a week with them, and the rest of the time they di whatever they want. Hes like fucking 80 and has a harem, and everyone just shrugs and pretends its okay. Because he made it okay, and no filipino would try to turn off that money faucet for those girls.

>>2917421
Sorry homopig you are never going to get to suck my cock with that attitude. Hook me up with your sister and maybe you can fish her dirty panties out of the laundry once I've had my way with her though.

Leave her number.

>>2917423
What if the shoes were reversed and this is how I treat you?

It's no wonder the vast majority of Hapas rebel against their deadbeat fathers and side with their mothers. Most of the Mestizos and Mixed bred children in the Philippine Revolution against Spain and Philippine-American War sided with the Philippines, rather than you. Since your own children see your moral rot.

>>2917424
Nope, my kids love me and so do the moms who wanted me around. They have great lives and great education. They are going to grow up and rule your shithole, hopefully with an iron fist, and whip it into shape.

You, on the other hand, were obviously sexually abused by someone in your family, which is why you turned out gay and retarded. I know the bakla pedo problem is pretty huge in PH. Your education was very bad, as it seems that you turned out to be a reddit communist with a poor understanding of history as well.

What stupid fake college degree did you get? "Criminology" perhaps? Did you get a ceremony and a certificate, then find out you would never get a job with it, ever? lol!

Dumb + gay + no cum. Very sad stuff for you homopig, but it is not my problem.

If you guys hate the Philippines you are free to leave. Meanwhile, I love and defend my country and my people; and we are willing to accept you as one of our people too. If you also feel for the injustices done against this country too.

Look at Japan and Thailand, no matter how you LARP you will never be accepted as a Japanese or Thai; since they are Buddhist Asian ethanoates but over here we have multigenerational Whites being accepted as 100% Filipinos like the Zobel de Ayalas, Aboitiz, and Razons.

Yet all I hear is White worship of these nations but not ours.


Every White person flocks to some random Buddhist Stupa Temple in Kyoto, where the dead therein were celebrated for massacring Whites in WW2. whereas some church in Zamboanga which witnessed centuries of being destroyed and rebuilt and defended by both Whites and Filipinos dying in order to defend Western Ideals and the Christian faith, gets ignored and badmouthed.

This gives me fury to no end.

BTW this IS how you treat me homopig. You have been on this same insane obsession for years in phg. It's how you started out, it's how you will end.

You have never given a shred of respect, so you will get zero in turn. I know exactly what type of gay, dumb, raped, and pathetic filipino you are, so I'm not afraid to call you it.

My filipino employees who behave themselves and don't try to ask to suck my cock are treated very well, probably too well. My security guard and workers in my apartment complex (note: my, as in it belongs to me), are all treated well and have never suffered any abuse, because they have not earned any of it.

As long as a filipino male does not act gay or retarded or abusive, we can have a normal relationship. But you are very gay, very retarded, and also a communist. So you do not deserve a shred of respect.

>>2917426
Do you really enjoy this dynamic? Treating people who loved your culture, religion, and blood, as slaves and scum, meanwhile the vast majority of Europeans and Americans; totally ignore the sacrifices Filipinos have done in their honor and go to support the tourism of the butchers of said Americans and Europeans in mass tourism to Thailand and Japan?

So it's literally, if we didn't listen to you, your would respect us more.

>>2917429
Gay communists aren't people, so yes I do enjoy shitting on you.

As for the other stuff, your history revision and insane nationalistic perspective mean absolutely nothing to me. I know you are lying, so it's pretty stupid to assume I am operating on the same understanding of history as you.

You are a schizophrenic, so you do not understand that other people don't believe the same thing as you. You believe, instead, that they know what you know, accept what you accept as true, but deliberately chose to act like it isn't true just to annoy you.

It's impossible for you to come to terms with the idea that other people know you are lying, reject those lies, and ignore you because you sound insane.

You are a dumb, gay, leftist stooge. The worst type of product of the worst most commie-infested and useless filipino """"higher"""" education system.

My kids are being sent overseas to get a proper education when its time, because your school are worthless and full of retarded faggots like you trying to indoctrinate them.

Better run your pics through some AI and whip them into shape and get back on grindr homopig. I can tell you haven't had your hole stretched in a couple weeks.

You only get this catty and worked up if you haven't had your guts re-arranged lately.

>>2917430
Fine I will accede to your demands and accept that you have a right to a different opinion? Happy? Have fun.

Is the guy exploding the thicc bottom baby of Baguio? He posted a drawing of himself but I didn't save it. Is that him?

BTW any time I go overseas I instantly make friends with local dudes, no problem. They don't try to suck my cock and they don't ask me for money. We just hang out, play pool, club, surf, boat, do some coke, etc. EZ. Because men everywhere are the same....except for the Philippines.

Any time I open up to filipinos and give them a chance (happens every six months or so I decide to get out there and interreact socially with the natives), as soon as my contact number gets out there, I've got filipinos trying to suck my cock or beg me for loans or gifts.

So there has to be a barrier up. Because filipinos are super duper gay and retarded, and refuse to behave themselves.

A polite, respectful, but large distance will always remain between the foreigner and the filipino male, by the foreigners choice, because you keep trying to suck his cock or treat him like an ATM.

If you are a cute girl that's FINE, but you're not, and will never be, so STOP.

Indonesia is an archipelago and its cheap as fuck everywhere on every island. The 'its an archipelago' excuse is lazy, tired, and untrue.

The reason why the philippines is expensive is because your criminal government places extreme import taxes on everything, which makes business unable to function unless it is backed by one of the already insanely wealthy ruling families.

Anon there are corrupt people in every nation. But it only appears as if the Philippines is corrupt since they have a free media wherein news of corruption will spread like wildfire and everybody knows who is what, and the costant reporting gives coverage bias that as if everyone is corrupt, in contrast Thailand and Vietnam has the same level, if not higher levels of corruption as the Philippines, but Thailand has Draconian laws banning criticism of the King and Vietnam has the same Draconian laws banning criticism of the Communist party, and even though it is an objective fact that the King of Thailand and the entire royal family are drug addicted, debauched, shameless, mental illness patients.

Like the time when the now Thai King made his dog Foofoo an Air Marshall and several of his pet animals Admirals and Miltary Officers and made his wife dance naked while eating out of a dog bowl...

https://torontosun.com/2016/11/18/thailands-playboy-prince-had-topless-wife-act-like-dog-at-party-made-real-dog-foo-foo-air-marshal

Your curated and tightly censored Thai media will never reveal such facts lest the Les Majesté Laws will have them executed, same with Vietnam.

But alot of foreigners mistake the abscence of complaining about corruption as abscence of corruption itself. Which is stupid since clearly the Thai Royal Family and the Communist Party of Vietnam are in dictatorial levels of corruption but their highly censored press gives them the appearance of being clean AF while the loud micromanaging press of the Philippnes gives the illusion that as if everybody up to the local barrio sheriff is corrupt. Which is just plain wrong lol.

Post thighs

You can think all you want about the reason why I or others go to Japan over the Philippines, but it's really simple. I can go out for a long walk with no map, or phone, get lost, and make it back to my hotel after being out for hours in Japan with a smile on my face. In the Philippines, I never want to leave my room except for finding food because of how anxiety inducing everything is. Most Filipino people are harmless, they're not even half of the problem. I don't even like Makati or BGC. I stay in my hotel all day at those places too.

I read Nick Joaquin's Novels: mainly, the Woman who had two navels, Manila My Manila, and Tropical Gothic. And this is what he explained....

"There was no return to 'normalcy' because abnormality had become the pattern of our lives."

Still, Manila is a waaaayyy more interesting city than Tokyo. There 14 cultural layers and 8 religions fighting over Manila compared to only just 2 Shinto and Buddhism in Japan.

"We are a city of layers. Every time we walk through the streets of Manila, we are treading upon the dust of several different cities that have flourished and perished on this same site. There was the Manila of the Rajahs, the Manila of the Conquistadors, the Manila of the Viceroys, and the Manila of the Commonwealth. Each was destroyed, and each was buried, and upon its grave the next one rose."

—Nicomedes Márquez Joaquín, Manila: Sin City and Other Chronicles (1977)

Japan received hundreds of billions in cheap reconstruction money to manufacture wares and be an industrial supplier in the nearby Korean war, in addition to the billions of Stolen Money from World War 2, enough to rebuild "Beautifully".

Lack of discipline outside of family social structures is a common trait with Filipinos, Indonesians, and Indians. The huge population and rising GDP of these countries means that there is no incentive to build a cheap hotel or restaurant when you could build something upscale that charges higher prices. Thus, everything cheap is dilapidated and neglected while glitzy new investor-funded establishments pop up all over the place. Businesses the world over are realizing that richfags will just pay whatever they charge, no matter how jacked up it is, so aspirational pricing has become increasingly common. Think of the poor investors! Of course, 90% of your payment stays in the pockets of the upper classes; only a trickle goes to the staff.

Unironically the coomer paypigs are the only tourists who contribute sizably to the teeming masses with their direct cash payments. Otherwise it's what, a 10 peso eggroll now and then? A balut for the hell of it? That's nothing in overall terms of economic impact.
>>2917494
Japanese are perfect corporate slaves. Filipinos are known to be hard workers too but that is only a minority of the population. The rest love relaxmaxxing too much. And great cities cannot be built when half the working age male population lounges around all day.

This idiot again. You're so tiresome you stupid fuck. If Manila was interesting it would be a tourist destination, but it isnt, because its a filthy, disgusting shithole.

There is no excuse you can make, no explanation, no cope. Manila is simply put, a nasty shithole that is overwhelmingly a negative experience except for a tiny handful of pleasant enclaves.

that's how a lot of low iq people operate, such as my rotten toothed uncle who spends government handouts immediately on food and useless tools when he doesn't have running water at home in a first world country.

most filipinos I encounter are not aware of their poor manners. They act sorta goofy.

I'm sure the sex is remarkable, but the consistent reminder of "I spent so much time on this relationship and I've built nothing" would be enraging. If she can't reason about purchasing garbage, how can she reason, let alone connect with you on a spiritual level, in a relationship

Indian cities are much dirtier than Manila. If you want to experience hypercrowded Asian urbanity for the first time, Manila is unironically the best first choice. Most Manila streets even have sidewalks. People sweep up the litter every morning. They even have guys in boats scooping rubbish out of the rivers. There are hiking trails to hilltop overlooks only 25 km straight line from Manila city center. People don't even look at a map of the area when they visit Manila. Rotting in the slums is a mistake too many newfags make.

So many English speakers assume that their colloquial expressions and accent are sonehow fully intelligible to Asian English speakers, and then get their knickers in a twist when nobody in Philippines, India, Malaysia etc. seems to understand them.
>but I understand them, why can't they understand me?
If you travel a lot you learn how to understand dozens of different English accents. A wagie who talks to hardly any foreigners has no way to learn all the different ways of speaking English. To make a point I would talk to Indians the same way that you would talk casually to a rando at the bus station in America; they couldn't understand a word of what I was saying. But when I spoke simply and succinctly like an ESL teacher, voila, they comprehended very well.

I'm talking about listening/reading comprehension, not perception of an accent. Filipinos below the (upper) middle class "speak english" in that they can sound out the words and formulate sentences or repeat to you what you heard or even transcribe the material, but struggle with accurate comprehension way more than any malaysian, indian, singaporean, etc.

comprehension is knowing what the sentence or paragraph perceived actually means.

was wondering about going there to coom. But I suspect its as hot and humid as rainy season Bangkok all year round though. Very draining.

Retard here,
flight prices making it more or less silly for me to return home so looking to just stick around a bit. Problem is I am visa maxed in most countries worth plopping my ass down in. No I don't want to go to Malaysia again, or vietnam.

Previously this year I did an extension online for my stay. Can I do that again when I land for a 59 day stay? I really do not want to do the in person visa BS shit if possible. If I can do at least 55 days there I should be good out till Xmas+NYE days. PH is within my budget and feel free to call me a normie tier traveler but I do want somewhere I can go and speak english anywhere anytime for the first time in like 9 months.

Trust me. They are there. It’s as awful as it’s ever been and getting worse. I was there 3 months earlier this year in cebu, Bacolod, and Manila - Mandaluyong. They’re just awful. Bad attitude. Bad intentions. Foreigners are the worse part of the Philippines by far.

She’s a woman. They’re all dumb and spend money on stupid shit. I had to scold my gf Becker she was sending money to every family member that sneezed for the worst bullshit reasons. Of course she loses her job 3 months later and actually has some money to beg by since I taught her some basic financial competence.

My cunt American ex wife used to buy the stupidest shit too. They’re all still women.

>>2918197
Yep. Indonesia is just like Philippines but I find Filipino food better normally.. Indonesian food is too oily often

this country is cooked

>go anywhere
>hordes of sick old homeless people laying around
>packs of street kids aggressively panhandling
>annoying retards peddling shit that nobody has ever needed, and expired or fake medication
>self-appointed filthy homeless door-openers at every business, as if anyone needs their fucking help
>self-appointed filthy 'parking assistants' """"helping"""" cars back up and out into traffic, as if anyone needs their fucking help

This shit is fucking disgusting. What is wrong with filipinos that they tolerate this nasty dogshit?

Can anyone give me a QRD on Siargao? Is it worth visiting as a 35 year old boomer who doesn't surf?

I'm in Siargao now. It depends what you want really. If you want to do some activities like surfing, wakeboarding or scuba diving then it's still a good destination. For partying you will feel out of place because most of the people will be 10 to 15 years younger. It's also pretty small so it's a better fit for a short trip than a long one

Just watched my sometimes-GF beat the shit out of her little sister for coming onto me.
Or maybe she knows I've already been fucking her, and is just doing some performative correction in front of me to let me know she doesn't accept it.

>>2918654
I am here to burst your bubble. They weren't exactly fighting over you and who you are. They were fighting because they're sisters. They likely aren't intelligent enough or on par with your level of intelligence to really be able to connect with you in a meaningful way. Yes, you guys can have sex but you'll never understand each other, or maybe you'll understand her but she can never understand you. That's why I say that they weren't fighting because of you. They were fighting because of some resource allocation, for familial reasons.

There is no long-term satisfaction to be gained in this situation. Eventually, your dick will get tired and you'll look around you one day when you need help and notice that the broads you've been hanging out with are in valence and you're totally alone with no one to provide you an equal amount of assistance in anything. That will leave you angry and bitter for wasting so much time.

Crazy amounts of projection from this post. Sorry that you took sport fucking little brown monkey women seriously bro. Not all of us are that emotionally invested though.
And yes they were fighting over me. I know because I speak enough bisaya to know what they were screaming about.

Now lets talk about how you lived here for 5+ years and still cant string together a simple conversation in tagalog.

ok shorty, they love you so much they were fighting over you

Good to see this thread is still where losers congregate. I stopped coming here because I thought I was having fun hating on you worthless degenerates. But it turns out I could never hate you as much as you hate yourselves. Have fun dying alone in a drunken stupor.

>I stopped coming here
Uhh it’s a travel thread. You are probably one of those losers you so despise.
There are many monger forums elsewhere you may feel comfortable in.

I'm exactly like Anthony Bordain, only difference is instead of tying off my neck until off my balls.

the-comment-when you've never emptied a massive load inside a small poor brown teen who looks at u with starry eyes in the hope u are her ticket out of her shithole life, while u know she's just a temporary sperm bank pivot to get to her hotter younger sister who can and will be ditched on a whim.

Where is Cuba bro i miss his stories. That dumb schizo tard or whatever his name is and the guy that always gets butt hurt by him scared him off

>>2919947
He got deported

>>2919947
He sounded like a proper maniac. Probably in prison.

Looks like another similar post was deleted. Something like
>no shortage of gfs
>having the time of his life
>women are recording him and posting on facebook as their future husband

Don't know why that was warranted as getting jannied though.

I used to wonder what my girls would tell thier friends and families. She vanishes for a few days, and re-appears with a wad of blue bills, more than she could earn in a month. Maybe she tells everyone that she went on a short trip with some girlfriends and won money gambling? That might fly once or twice.

So I asked one of my girlfriends - how do you explain a multiple day absence and a purse full of money to your friends and family? Don’t they ask where you’ve been or where the money comes from? To surprise, several of her friends were participating in the exact same activity: Getting fucked and cummed in for money. Selling one’s pussy seems like a totally normal thing for these girls.
Additionally, her oarents know full well their daughter has sex transactionally. They are happy when she bungs home the cash. Her aunties (and likely her Mom) did the same thing. Her faggot brother catches loads from gay tourists. I guess being a cumdump is a family tradition.
