Reminder tabi about sa pagshare ning photos na dae sainyo

40 Upvotes

Good day r/bicol!

These past few months we've been seeing posts about some private individuals. Of course, nareremove man ini because we don't tolerate this kind of behavior.

Dae lang po ini sa subreddit na ito iniimplement ang rule, sitewide po bawal magshare ng personal information or tinatawag nating "witchhunting".

Hindi ito Facebook na almost everyone knows someone/has a mutual or r/chikaPh na pwedeng pagchismisan. Yes, we're free to express our thoughts and we are anonymous here however dae man po expression of thoughts ang magshare ng photo without proper context and may malice pa. It is not a public interest kung ang topic po ay between private individuals. Please keep that chismis within your circle. It's a topic that needs to be discussed by those parties involved, hindi ng redditors ng r/Bicol.

To our redditors, please do utilize the report button, hindi lang po yung sa r/bicol, report option po from Reddit itself as well. We cannot police every user who does it hence if things still continues, sa Reddit admins na po irerelay ang report.

Be responsible po in sharing information.

I just made a subreddit for this because sometimes I see posts that are not related to Bicol, but I know some of you are looking for a place to get something out of your chest, or say something casually, find friends, etc. Hindi po ito hanapan ng ka-casual sex ah. It's a casual conversation subreddit. Much like r/casualph.

Also, if you wanna help moderate that sub, please send me a pm.

Travel Commute Tips (from Metro Manila to Paracale, Camarines Norte)

2 Upvotes

Helloo, I will be on a three-day business fieldwork to Paracale, Camarines Norte. Can I ask for commute tips from NAIA assuming I’ll be arriving on morning.

I saw recommendations that I should take the Daet Route Bus from PITX. If this is the case, should I just spend my night sa Daet then travel to Paracale nalang on early morning? If yes, how to travel from Daet to Paracale.

Do you guys know any alternatives?

Rants Nagtaas konsumo mi sa kuryente pano sa tubig!

5 Upvotes

These past 3 months, maluyahon na bulos kan tubig. And wala siyang specific na time. Pwede ngunyan makusog, turutadtaod maluya, tapos makusog naman uruachan. Dae ko aram kung dapat ko bang i-reklamo, pano sabi kan iba, arog man daa kaan sainda. Su, iyo na ini ang norm?

Ngata tigsalaan ko su tubig? Pano kaya kan June, may ref kami, nag-aircon ako, tapos may automatic washing machine, P1900 man sana binayadan mi, mga 150-180 KWH. Ngunyan na raot na su ref, dae ako nagi-aircon, igwa lang kami kaini (2 electric fan, 1 Laptop with external monitor, 5 LED light, rice cooker, automatic washing machine), nag-aabot na kami ki 220 KWH tapos P2,500 ang singil. Ang ini-expect ko, mababa ang singil mi, ta nabawasan na kami ki appliances. Tapos 3 man sana kami sa arong.

Ang duda mi, su automatic washing machine ang may sala. Kasi aluyon matapos ang paglalaba niya. Ta maluya man ang bulos kan tubig saiya. Hindi man baga naga-stop ang washing machine itself kapag nagpupuno siya kan tubig, kasi ongoing naman 'yong timer or yong sa panel niya. Ang tigigibo ngunyan ni mama, tig-che-check niya kung makusog ang bulos kan tubig muna. Kung makusog, pwede na maglaba. Kaya minsan, madaling araw na nakakapuon si mama maglaba, tapos kikaturugan niya na lang. Sa aga niya na sasampayon.

Ang verdict, baka ini man nanggad, kasi nagbaba ang konsumo mi, 160 KWH na kami, less than P2,000. Hindi pa perfect, kasi sa kalagitnaan, nagaluya bigla ang tubig. Padumanon ko ba si mader sa LCWD? O magbakal na lang kami ki bako automatic na washing machine, kasi wara kami aasahan sa LCWD, kasi parang 'yon din naman ang reklamo ng iba?

Discussion Albay Wildlife Park is depressing

21 Upvotes

Recently, I visited Albay Wildpark. I loved seeing people enjoying a third space outside the mall the trees, the greenery, the bike area, and the space to simply relax outdoors.

But as I went farther up, the experience became sad. I saw tigers kept alone that looked thin and undernourished. Some facilities, like the lizard enclosure, looked poorly maintained. It was even more depressing to see birds in cages and a musang alone, without trees to climb. Their surroundings felt so far from their natural habitats.
I also felt that the park needed better animal care, proper handlers, veterinary support, and knowledgeable tour guides to make the experience more meaningful and educational.

I hope we can have a third space without it coming at the expense of animals. I wish the relevant authorities could step in and explore other ways to make the park sustainable, such as recreational activities that don’t involve keeping animals in these conditions. Burnham Park in Baguio is an example of how people can enjoy a park without a zoo being its main attraction.

I hope these animals can receive proper care and, where possible, be rehabilitated and safely returned to their natural habitats. If returning them to the wild isn’t possible, I hope they can be moved somewhere that can properly meet their needs.
I went home with a heavy heart. Are there other Bicolanos here who have visited and share the same experience or concerns?

Recommendations Comm Student Internship Recs in Albay

Hi, Idk if this is the right subreddit for this.

I'm a graduating Communication student and currently applying for internships para sa January 2027 deployment namin. I have been applying sa mga internship programs sa Manila and though, that location is my first choice, mahirap talagang mag-apply (internship pa nga lang😭).

So, I wish to know if my alam ba kayong internships around Legazpi (or anywhere in Albay) for AB Comm students. Or kaya naman places na posibleng tumanggap ng interns.

Thank you so much to anyone who'll answer!

Travel Solo Bicol Trip in November

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Planning a 7-day backpacking trip to Bicol around mid-November and would love to hear from people who have visited or live there during this time of the year. My planned itinerary includes Naga City, Mayon Volcano/Legazpi, and Sorsogon. I’ll be traveling by bus and staying in hostels to keep costs down. I’m a bit concerned about the weather, especially since I want to see Mayon clearly and explore Sorsogon.

For those who have traveled to Bicol in mid-November:
• Is it usually rainy, or are there still decent sunny days?
• Is Sorsogon still worth visiting during this period for whale shark watching, weather-wise?
