What is the best thing to do and not do when on vacation in Philippines?

Do not go out alone.
Do not draw attention to yourself.
Do not look or act like a tourist.
Do not wear expensive clothing or jewelry.

Following is from a tour guide: Ten Commandments for Tourists
1. Do not expect to find things as you have them at home, for you have left home to find things different.
2. Do not take anything too seriously, for a carefree mind is the beginning of a fine holiday.
3. Do not let other tourists get on your nerves, for you are paying out good money to enjoy yourself.
4. Remember to take only half the clothes you think you need, and twice the money.
5. Know at all times where your passport is, for a person without a passport is a person without a country.
6. Remember that if we had been expected to stay in one place, we would have been created with roots.
7. Do not worry, for he who worries has no pleasure – few things are ever fatal.
8. When in Rome, be prepared to do somewhat as the Romans do.
9. Do not judge the people of a country by the one person who has given you trouble.
10. Remember you are a guest in other lands, and he who treats his host with respect shall be honoured.

Enjoy, and have a safe and pleasant vacation!!
