    I wish I had the mental calmness of a man like this. I’ve never been cheated on, but I would be so furious, and explain it with emotion. Good for him for being stable

    I can relate to a lot of his life. I was also an adjuster that became a public adjuster. Similar experiences with first two wives. Met the love of my life, a filipina and we celebrate our 13 year anniversary today. My motto is Carpe deim. Life is short so go for it and experience things.

    I'm coming over in May/ June. I need to meet you and maybe an interview and also need to meet your guest and hopefully become friends.😮
    I would telephone him if I had his details. I totally relate to him.. like looking in a mirror. I hope we meet this time.
    I need to work out how to get to Dumegete from Bangkok.
    Catch you later

    This brings back memories. I grew up in California and in college (1977-1982) we use to take Napa trips, sometimes with our bicycles. Back then the "tasting" at the end was free. Now, they charge. My kids tell me "thanks for ruining it for us" lol.

    Spot on with the language barrier. It is a real barrier! I lived in Vietnam for 7 years and was just able to order in cafes. After being in Vietnam again, this time for almost 1 year I'd done with not being able to undersand what's going on around me or needing a translator just to function. It's too much work. I'm flying to Cebu in three days and am so looking forward to the Philippines this tour.

    Do you know all this skipping around to all these countries and everything is done with the exception of when he was an insurance adjuster in America he never really explained how he made his income throughout his whole entire life even up to the point to where he lives now in the Philippines he never explained where he got his income from throughout his whole entire life up to this point I mean does he collect Social Security? Did he put a lump sum in the investments he’s living off of dividends it seems like he’s had an exciting life but I’d like to know how the hell he paid for it
