Nano Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Looks like I'm staying in Talamban. Hopefully, I can find a few friends near there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alleycat Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 The main expats hang out in Talamban is Eurohub which is a busy sports bar and eatery. Talamban is not a big place but where, exactly, will you be staying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where you need to hang out, at least initially. Late afternoon/early evening is popular with many, there are usually bands on during weekend evenings and big sporting events are well attended. If you don't mind a walk (or run), like beer and have a warped sense of humour, try Cebu Hash; they are very active socially and members can usually be found at Eurohub. There is also a carpet bowling club that operates out of there and it's the watering hole of a few golfers and no doubt other pastimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alleycat Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 Hiway 77 is a reasonably quiet and fairly traffic-free road, compared with the main Highway and many other arterial roads in Talamban. That is a good thing in many respects but it also means that at night it becomes a very dark and quiet place. Whilst I am sure that you will be perfectly safe in Santorini Residences which are a gated community with 24/7 security, and I have walked in that area at night without a single problem, my advice is to take a taxi home at night, at least until you become familiar with the area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
