The local government had set curfew at 9:00 p.m. It behooves all visitors to follow this. You can go and explore Sagada town all you want but please be sure to be in your hotel/inn when the clock strikes 9. The last call for orders in the local bars comes at about 8:45 p.m. so please keep this in mind.

I was blown away by how well Sagadans speak English. =D Even better than some of my fellow Filipinos in Manila. They'd rather converse in English than in Filipino. Nosebleed nga ako eh! hehehe.

Sagadans really preserve their heritage and culture so their future generations can still see the legacies of their "ninunos"...that's why tourists should refrain from desecrating any place in Sagada by not leaving your trash/plastics behind (putting your garbage in the proper place), not getting souvenir rocks/stalactices inside sumaging caves or writing your names inside the caves....

Saturday is market day and you will benefit from a wide selection of fruits and vegetables. Farmers come afar and usually leave at 2pm. So, better be early in there. You can catch a lot of worms...

i was talking to a local who's attending her store in tagalog (phils. national language) but was surprised that she replied to me in english........ that's because they have their own dialect and it's easier for them to converse in english rather than in tagalog.....ofcourse it would be a lot better if you can speak in their native tongue *winks*....... so, english-speaking people nothing to worry!

 tray of goodies for sale in the bus.. by myspices Don't worry about feeling hungry during the long journey in the bus. Every short stop you will see local carrying trays and baskets of foodstuff (some carry them on their heads) getting onto the bus and try to sell you their goodies. Most of the food are local food and snacks. You can buy your drinks or even icecreams. Rather convenient, eh....
