The reason why I was asking is because I was unsure, and I was not trying to make anything more complicated. Since I am still green when it comes to stuff like this, I am trying to find out what exactly to do.
If I go to either the Philippines or Mexico, I'm going to try to find a good woman. Maybe a week or two isn't enough time to find a good LTR, so it will probably be somewhere between LTR & P4P.
Here's what you do -
You need about $2000 for Manila, Cebu, etc
You need about $1000 for just about anywhere in Mexico, increase it to maybe $1500 for the coastal cities
50% of your $2000 for Manila for example is plane fare. The rest is spending cash, horribly cheap accommodation and food.
Mexico is cheap as well. Don't listen to wussies about personal safety they don't know sh*t. Mexico's economy depends on tourism, do you REALLY think your in danger there? With that said, you don't get a personal guardian angel so any dumb shit you might do could get you mugged, raped, in jail or murdered. I would HIGHLY suggest you SKIP THE SAUCE (Drinking). Most idiocy stems from drinking too much with locals you don't know from a hole in the ground.
You can take the bus from where you are in the US (I assume its San Antonio) to anywhere in Mexico, if that's where you wanna go. How do you think legal immigrants with even a little wherewithal make back to visit family???
They aren't flying that's for sure..
I can't comment on PI too much but there's plenty of information here and elsewhere on the web.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book -

If you wanna find a good women in those countries, go find the darker skinned women, easy as pie.
