I grew up in Baguio...
My Classmates asked me and Myra to bring them to our hometown. And so we did!

Manila to Baguio Trip takes 6-8 hours. I suggest riding Victory Liner
or driving starting 11-12midnight. That way you get to sleep along the way, wake
up when the sun shines to see the magnificent Mountain View and when you arrive you inhale
the fresh morning air of the city. Also, breakfast are great in Baguio!

Since I'm such a picky yet adventurously healthy eater I recommend you try the following restaurants when visiting Baguio City.
1. 50's Diner - Famous for their American Servings
2. Oh my Gulay - Famous for their artistic decor in Session Road, its like your in a ship-garden
3. Bliss Cafe - For Ovo Vegans, Art Shows every night
4. Grandma's garden - Fresh Organic veggies
5. Vizcos - Yummy delicacy
6. Oh Mai Khan - Cakes and Shabu-Shabu
7. Good Taste - Budget Friendly, yummy and good for the hungry for their big servings

Lesson #1: Don't wear slippers and shorts otherwise you can't get inside churches and major establishments in Baguio including PMA. Well, that was a lesson learned by my friends

| Eric and I Traveler's tips:
When visiting Baguio on a budget, stay on transient houses. They are cheaper and you can buy vegetables and meat
in the Market. :) For Breakfast or dinner.
The city is really small and the people are of course the best! You can talk to them in Tagalog or English (most kids and grannies speak in English) to ask for directions and jeepneys.
Don't skip going to PMA. Its the prime training school for the countries future AFP leaders. * ^,
Don't skip buying pasalubong in Good Shepherd, which is in Mines View. 2 birds hit with 1 stone.
Its your chance to wear your New York outfits or winter clothes! So strike it!
