    I will be coming for my first Philippine visit to Dumaguete on July 22nd with my adopted son. We would like to have a get acquainted tour of the area on the 23rd. I am sure it would be easy and economical with a local but prefer an expat to show us around.

    We presently live in Jalisco, Mexico that's main claim to fame is its tequila. Not that crap like most buy in the US, the real stuff is what I can get. I would be willing to swap in exchange for a local tour is a liter of the finest sipping tequila available. Any takers?

    That's a ways out. I could probably do it. I usually nailed down during the week, but that's far enough out I could clear out a couple days. It's always fun to show new people around.

    I know you are a computer whizz - but just give me a clue how you auto-filter all posts and if they include any word related to alcohol you are automatically notified? :biggrin:

    No computers necessary; just the world's most self destructive superpower.

    I just got back from the liquor store after paying 2,180 PHP for a liter of the tequila. If you are seeing about the quality of it you might need to see tequila Fortaleza. that is what it is sold in the US because of a name conflict and may be exported as such also.

    If I do not get a taker soon I will not tote it to Dumaguete and will toast the forum while I sip it as I am sure I can get a grand tour for 2,000 PHP.

    I can do it, though it's up to you. My personality on the forum rub some the wrong way. Though of course it's different outside the forum.

    I have lived here for over a decade and I know the places and the people. Though I'm not very adventurous outside of Dumaguete. If you want to focus on places outside of Dumaguete then someone else would be better. Though you can't hit a lot of places outside of Dumaguete in short amount of time anyways.

    You can hold out for someone else or send me a DM with your preferences of the types of places you would like to see.

    Dude, I accept your offer but can not figure out how to DM. I was barred from initiating a conversation with you. Please advise about the mode of private conversation.

    I started the convo, thanks! And I'm sure we're still open for anyone who wants to tag along. If anyone is interested, then feel free to chime in. We already know @Rye83 would be willing but won't be here.

    Hmm... maybe we could even throw a DI get-together for the date. We haven't had one of those in a while.
