Here you can experience the mystery of the orient, whilst living in the lap of luxury for a lot less cost than you might imagine. If we tell you that a waitress in the Philippines can expect to work for less than $1 an hour you will get a rough idea as to how far your budget will go.
We are not for one moment suggesting exploitation of waitresses or anyone else, but it does suggest why the Philippinos love to welcome tourists and their money.
