The apartment I am renting here on Panglao Island, is running me 9000 pesos a month (roughly $200). The apartment is fully furnished including free wifi and a swimming pool. The only cost out of pocket I have is utilities. Electricity runs about 1000-1500 pesos (22-35 dollars) a month. Satellite television is costing me 430 pesos (10 dollars) a month for the mid range package with a couple of movie channels (HBO, etc.)
Renting a semi automatic motorbike for 3000 pesos (70 dollars) a month.
The apartment is a 3 minute ride from the nearest beach and 5 minutes from the big tourist beach, Alona Beach. Tagbilaran (capital of Bohol) is 15 minutes away a city of 100,000 with 6 universities and colleges.
This is badass, great info. So what's your total monthly living expense? $1000/month?
