Ivan: Hi guys, Vonki knows me, im poker pro living in Cebu for 14 months and been to most places here so i can should u around. If u are up to something - party/sightseeing etc let me know and we can arrange something. Vonki has my skype
Cool idea!
Will definatelly follow this ♦
All the best and have tons of fun ♠_cool:
grindtolive - rent price is $28k per person per month, so equivalent of about $642 USD
Krishjanis - yeah i know they're old pics, but I wanted to get the blog up ASAP so it was convenient. we'll definitely try to post lots of pictures!
Zakumii - that was the battle station of the previous housecrew - we are still working on getting ours set up, its a bit incomplete atm
fruktpuff - this is going to be a shared blog, the others will be posting later today but they're all sleeping right now
ZhiCheng - we def need to meet up at some point soon!
Appreciate the positive feedback guys!
Just woke up.
Like Eric said we'll get more pictures up soon, also from things we do out here.
My trip started with me arriving without any luggage (maybe the layover of 1h30m in hong kong was a bit short after all..). But it arrived last night and at least made some money betting Eric if it would arrive or not.
Unfortunately I did lose the first CCR with the crew yesterday but I have good hopes for running hot!
I will also be posting about other bets we've made. Sofar I've won a bunch of money betting on how much our groceries would be. If you guys have other good things we can bet on let us know 
Let me post some pictures of us so you guys know who we are.
This is me:
This is Dave:
This is Eric:
This is Vonki:
I'm sure we'll get some group pics in the future 
Also won the best flip of the trip sofar.
We did Omaha flips to determine who gets what room and I got first pick.
My biggest problem is going to be putting in volume, but will try to reach our goal! I'm sure some volumebets will come as well.
!!
@ Ivan: sure! wanna maybe make a group-chat on skype or smt? roumers are we're hosting a party for Eric's upcoming birthday... 
Can't believe how fast I've gotten used to being down here. Everything is just so different from back home. It's pretty hard to see all the poor people on the streets, we just dont have any of that back in Sweden... 
There's also good things though... the people so far seem amazing down here. That goes for all of the guys from the house too, don't think I could have asked for better room mates The guys we met from the other houses also seem quite great so far 
Gonna try to get some pictures up of my room (and the others + the house) later on when it's been cleaned and I've got all my stuff packed up. Bought some stuff in the mall yday to make it feel more like home... purple pillow cases, purple towels etc 
nice blog keep updating it often
and u'll surely crush the 40k goal as it's pretty much nothing for such stakes grinders+ as i saw from the picture, the house has good karma as the guy ahd only 1 loosing session in HM1 ♦(pic in 1st page)

. looking forward to every update/pic 
We just came back from another day at the mall... we just keep thinking of things we need all the time ♦ Guess we'll have to go again tomorrow because me and Eric want to get some better grinding chairs...
We baught some badminton equipment today so next step will be to find the badminton court tomorrow.
One of the things I love about this place so far is that in every supermarket they bag all your stuff for you 
Ive always hated that...
We had lunch in a mexican style restaurant at the mall today, I had the filet mignon (spelling?) which was absolutely awesome. And ofc, a virgin Piña Colada Freerolled this one again as my card got picked first and Robin ended up paying again. ♦ ♦
Might upload some pics later but the camera is upstairs and I think I'm going for a swim now
Aauw shit, I'm so jealous now lol 
Philippines is a smart choice, because everything there is cheaper. I wish you guys (and girl) the best of luck
edit: time to put some major motivation in poker, who knows I'll be there in a few years ♦

Sure we are! We're playing already Tho we dont play maybe just as much yet as we may other days given we have been out exploring a bit and getting to know one and other etc.
Think we agreed we'd make like a weekly update pokerwise.
