:-\Looking for a suggestion of finding a good travel agency in US.
I will be flying from Seattle to Naga ( probably via Manila ) and later to my final destination in Iriga City (probably taxi)
I'm planning to stay there for 3 weeks, how much money should or can I take with me US dollars or pesos - ( I will be renting or staying with "friends")
This will be my firs trip to Philippines - your help will be very much appreciated 
If you are looking for a brick and mortar travel agency, I have always been told that the best deals are using one from your point of origination. So, you might try and find one in Seattle. If you go internet, there are a couple of guys on here know of an agency or two that they have dealt with of which are apparently good. Maybe they will respond as I don't remember the agency or mailing address.
Funny thing is, I know a little bit about Iriga City. I have a friend, who I have known several years of him working in Metro Manila and he just a month ago has made a decision to go back down there. That is where he is from and his immediate family still lives there. Income will be harder to come by for them but it will work out best since he won't have the expenses of living here and he will now be with his wife and two children. It is a fourth class municipality with a little over 100k people. About an hour drive south of Naga and surprisingly, even Naga being a good size city, is only a second class municipality. He is a hard working guy who takes pride in his work and I hope he does well there.
