Hi Chit
The weather here is still unstable. We have had a lot of rain lately,
and temperatures from 25 to 29 celsius. I dont really mind, since it
cools down the air and the sun comes back between the showers. I
expect it to be dry and nice soon though. I live here with my family
and I dont have any business. I have a pension, so I dont worry about
starting any business.
The problem with the smaller inexpensive resorts and hotels, is that
you often do not find them on the internet. I have found a nice cheap
place for some Norwegians who are coming for a visit soon. I will
take some videoshots of that place and put it on YouTube for them to
check it out. Eventually you will find them here:

It is always best in Boracay to look for a place when you're already
here. It might, however, be difficult during Holy Week since the
place gets very crowded then.
