Philippines Internet Friends Many men from the USA become friends with Philippines girls over the internet. --------------------------------- Manila Philippines - Southeast Asia Malate Mabini Ermita Wednesday, January 23, 2008 Andy of HoboTraveler.com --- Submit Hotel URL ---------------------------------- I travel on both sides of the planet; I have been accidentally traveling between two large groups of people who know each other. As best I can figure out, there are people who daily get on the internet at the same times. For example, a man in the USA may get on the internet at about 10:00 am in the morning at work in the USA, and a girl in the Philippines gets on the internet at 11:00 pm the same time.

Most tourist drownings in Thailand involve people caught in RIP CURRENTS on popular beaches. Phuket and big Ko Chang have the worst records, but rip currents can occur anywhere there is a surf running. All that water heading beachwards has to get back out to sea somehow, and that is the rip current. Waves in Thailand are more a wet season thing, during and after periods of prolonged strong winds.
