...owner Mie Mie's helpfulness and invigorating curry breakfasts, but backpackers can find cheaper. In a Burmese restaurant, expect to pay $1-5 for a spread that includes curry, pickled tea, fried vegetables and rice. Try the Green Elephant toward the airport.

Jesus is pure Ifugao (people of the earth), a tribe that took its carving skills and wood tools and reshaped entire mountains into a living three-dimensional contour map. The rice terraces around Batad, and nearby Bangaan and Banaue, are one of those world wonders that demand a top eight rating. For centuries bamboo pipes and an intricate network of rivulets have taken water scores of miles to irrigate thousands of rice fields half-a-day's walk above the valley floor.

...everyone in Jacky's neighborhood is as badly off as Jacky and Bing. And even the slum has its nicer alleys, where the huts are made of finished wood and there are flush toilets and the skittering rats don't root through piles of festering garbage. The teens and twenty-somethings in these parts of the slum also like to smoke yaba, but they look down upon Jacky and Bing and their flagrant, raging addictions.
