I am not from the Philippines or know the Cebu areaq at all, but I did live in Manila for some time not so long ago. I changed many different currencies at a number of exchange offices throughout the area but you will generally find that major banks offer exchange services as well. You should have no issues with the more mainstream currencies like the Euro and British Pounds etc, but you may find it difficult to exchange the less common currencies such as the Aghanistani currency and Egyptian pounds. I would check at your closest mainstream bank and then go from there.

Thanks for the advise James. The afghan money i have is kind of rare in here. Maybe you might be interested to buy some as a unique collector items to show your friends. In fact,if somebody is a real international money collector,then this is their chance especially if they come from the Philippines because Filipinos are not alowed anymore to enter to afghanistan. :) (just kidding )
Anyway if you can find out some more i appreciate it if you can tell me.
