I wouldnt say living in a car would be an adventure, but fine if u have an SUV or Truck which allows u to spread out. I lived in a Jeep Cherokee and storage units in Arkansas and Central Missouri for 3 yrs off and on and found living without power and running water wasnt a problem i couldnt overcome. Im planning to move to Leyte in 2023 for good on a very limited income, buy a duel purpose M/C and live a simple life with a lady who supports herself. Im just going to give her 1000P a day for rent and expenses while buying most of my own food.

Watching your interview session and I can sense that you are now settled with your Filipino wife and 2 children. Going back to Philippines next year with my family for vacation.

One thing I learned though is be careful of the women that contact you right away after you join they tend to be the women that aren't sincere so beware, do your own search and I have found women from the Province's are the most caring and true to heart.

PH only works if you like Florida summer weather 365 days year, and you like to hear the most voiced phrase in every store is, sorry out of stock Rules for scooters and motorcycles Always allow enough distance to stop quickly and always be able to stop in the distance you can see. Like going over a hill or a curve, always expect a broken down vehicle you have to stop for, a child or a dog. Some people drive without their lights on at night also. Most important use a car or truck to run a cover for you, follow them at a safe distance, if anything is in the road they will hit it not you. 100% attention at all times. I enjoyed my scooter and getting around cars squeezing between at lights. Drove from Cebu to Baguio using ferries. Check out the 24hr $125 stateroom on the ToGo ferrie from Manila back to Cebu for your bike
