Miscellaneous: if you're out of celphone battery, be it a Samsung, Sony Ericsson, iphone, etc. you can just drop by in a 24-7 convenience stores like 7-eleven store or Mini Stop or in Burger King, they have this recharging machine applicable for any branded celphone units. in the convenience stores, you have to drop a 5 Php coin on the machine's slot to begin the recharging for 10mins.

Luggage and bags: if you're going island hopping, better to bring backpacks with you than a wheelie. roads in provinces are often dirt roads or not so well paved.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: summer is sizzling hot - bring ultra light clothes, cotton fabrics, and short sleeved shirts and light pants or shorts.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: most toiletries and medicine are available in cities. convenience stores abound in every street corner and pharmacies can be found even in provinces. however, for special medication, it's advisable to bring your own.

Miscellaneous: cellphones:
bring an open line cellphone which can accept any operator's simm card. When you arrive just look for a prepaid sim kit from globe or smart. They ranges from 100-200 pesos (US $3.6 only) only with 100 pesos initial load. Then get cellphone call cards and be connected almost anywhere you are in the philiipines. Local calls are 6.5-13.00 pesos per minute, and idd calls are US $40 cents a minute. Its much cheaper than roaming rates of your telco provider. Some sim card even give you a complementary fried chicken meal at any jolibee fastfood outlet
