Where to live in the Philippines - Best places for single, married, city, province

nice😍

I think tagaytay. The view is amazing. It’s cooler temps and only an hour from Manila with the new highway

Volume is way too low.

great livestream...watched it from beginning to end

Always enjoy your channel!

Think about getting a Yamaha Aerox 155 keyless, I have had mine for four years now, and have had absolutely no problems with it. Cost was $2,200 US new in Thailand.

We have a solar kit on our condo in iloilo that runs our a/c and fridge.

That guy who has lived in the PI for 15 years probably has a lot more insights. Too bad I could barely hear him half the time with that headset mic of his.

Hi Paul. I watch a lot of your videos and find them to be informative.

😂😂 Consider moving your coffee maker on that table behind you to ensure a steady supply. 😂🤣

I am getting ready to retire and have been in the Philippines 17x. My preferences are:
1. Dumaguette (Valencia)
2. Lapu Lopu
3. Puerto Princessa
4. Davao
5. Dipolog
6. Cagayan do Oro
7. Cebu City
I have also travelled a lot to other SE Asia countries but can only rate those I visited. My order:
1. Philippines (People are #1)
2. Thailand
3. Vietnam
4. Cambodia (Dirty but inexpensive)
5. Malaysia
6. Singapore (beautiful but very expensive)

I loved the comment from Gio:. "Wherever I settle down ... I'll tell people it sucks." 🤣🤣🤣

I lived in the Philippines for many years. Word of caution: if you are planning to get a motorcycle please make sure that you get one which is at least 400 cc because there are traffic laws in the Philippines that do not allow motorcycles with smaller 400 cc engine to drive on the superhighways.

Regarding Filipinos liking "white" skinned ladies, it's a total myth! I dated a beautiful white skinned Filipina and she told me she had a difficult time with dating Filipinos. Darker skinned Filipinas can be very popular with Filipino men too. It all depends on a lady's sex appeal something which a lady can "manage" and which is apparently true everywhere not only in the Philippines.

Soft talker

Corpsman FMF: Most boats there are Bankas, with a shallow draft and two outriggers and can be pulled easily onto a beach.

I spent 5 weeks in the Philippines once….most of the time Laguna which I found very congested. I also stayed w locals in what I call their working class area which I think added to the small and congested feeling. I liked best Bislig City in Mindanao. It was easier going. Less people. Houses had bigger lots. It seemed nice and laid back. It was all locals.

I also visited bulacan which had lots of people carrying buckets of water on shoulder yokes. I also visited Mindoro briefly and I got of the fairy in Cebu city quickly and went to the mall there. From my brief experience I like Bislig City the best.

I have heard Baguio is super nice.

Is General Santos safe? When I visited a number of years ago Davao was not safe. A Catholic priest was kidnapped while I was there. But I get the impression it has changed since then.

Regarding Harley Davidson, I read there is a group of Filipino bikers in hang out status hoping to become Hell’s Angles.

Paul your English is great but one small help with the pronunciation of the word ‘sew’ — this word is pronounced like the word ‘so’

You're a smart guy Paul. Thanks for your wisdom.

New Subscriber here --- I support (no skip ad and share your video to myFB) your Positivity for the Tropical Paradise of Philippine Islands like "Making it Happen" vlog ..!!!!!!!

I'm kind of partial to Island Life, on a small island. I guess because that's how I grew up. I hate the noise and pollution of city life.

This Pandemic really screwed up everything great about the Philippines.... from a Traveling, Toursim stand-point I mean. Even having a wife and son there, They make it very difficult for me to travel there at the moment. VISA's and crap...

I highly recommend Makati City and Bonifacio Global City for both single people, as well as married couples. Great night life and great restaurant life. All the resources at your fingertips and cheap too.

excellent video ..really excellent....thanks for the great info...awesome channel... TWO THUMBS UP Y'aLL ...I want a place where it's quiet & provincial BUT a city nearby w/ a tricycle ride etc I wanna B left alone I wanna disappear in the woodwork/wallpaper....lol...(btw I rewound this a million times & looked up all those places U talked about)

Heat you loud n clear.. but I’m a Johnny come lately lol

👍😘👍

Cool blog 👍😊👍

Baguio is a really nice place to live. It is high in the mountains with pine trees 🌲 and views. Much cooler there and plenty of nature.

Calvin is building a Brand new, small home he's about 40 days into his build. His budget is $20,000USD

Davao seems to be very expensive

Not true m8

Davao is extremely clean and safe.I will move there from Thailand when covid settles..The people are wonderful

Is that Yuban or Sanka ? LoL

I am sorry, I had to skip through Bill's contributions because his audio was so poor, even after you advised him, Paul!

Interesting to hear the guest Bill.

Thanks for some balanced views and some reasoned, not bigoted opinions guys. you are needed to balance the negative bull I hear from many online. I have subscribed now because of this. I am a Brit expat here and love it.

Question looking for a good gym to workout at where ever I live do u have any suggestions of nice gyms other than condo

I’ve traveled to cebu city in 2001 then again 2013 then 2018 the women of Cebu are more like western women know

Hi Paul I live in the UK and intend to move to Cebu around Macktown Newtown
I hope we get to meet and chat and maybe do a video as a foreigner from UK in the Philippines. Gary

Volume of your voics is terrible also you should establish some basic rules for conversing ather than continued interuptions of each other !

This video is a month old when I am watching it. You may have already been told but we can’t hear Bill even after he moved the mike. Is he afraid to be heard ?

Not sure how to find live broadcasts. Any suggestions?
