    If you decide to come back to explore some more near Valencia, its worth it to drive up to visit Pulangbato Falls. As an American that has been living here for a while, I can understand why some comments being posted depict this area as not being to their liking. That's the beauty of these islands, lots of variety to choose from but its best to visit and figure out for yourself what best suits your individual taste.

    I heard that Mark Thornton the RUclipsr from every man has a story channel, passed away a little more than a day ago. Condolences to his wife and child.

    • @LeeElvesenioSecapure
      @LeeElvesenioSecapure Месяц назад

      Such a sad news. Every interview he shared (overwhelmingly male) and probably much to his dismay, only brought indifferent perspectives and colorless views. All good, the views expressed neither hurt nor helped.

    • @agevermoreinfinity20
      @agevermoreinfinity20 Месяц назад

      It is truly heart-rending to hear of the sad demise of Mr. Mark Thornton. Compared to me, he was a relatively young man. Nevertheless, it is interesting that as we listen to vloggers day after day or week after week, we get some perspective on who they are and how they arrived at the place where we "met" them.
      For example, I know from listening to him, that he owned a lot of Apple stock. Regrettably, he sold potentially millions of $$'s of it, at the insistence of relatives, to buy a house, which he later lost during the Great Financial Crisis in the U.S.
      Recently, he shared some of his health concerns with us, and mentioned his heart condition again. He said that he had no serious health problems prior to taking the C-19 vaxx. After that, he said, surprisingly, that he was diagnosed with a heart condition. Sadly, for him, he and I sought different council about the safety and efficacy of those shots. I'm sure that he would not have listened to Alex Jones and renown expert Dr Peter McCullough, who warned against the mrna products in the so-called vaxx. I will not go on further, other than to say that knowing myself, I know that I would have been anxious everyday knowing that stuff was coursing through my veins. Thus, I consider Mr. Thornton to be a victim. And, for me, that fact adds to the heavy sadness of his extremely untimely demise. Heartfelt condolences to his loved ones and especially, his wife and infant child. May God bless and comfort each one. May God bless his soul and may he rest in eternal peace.

    Dumaguete is a great place to start your journey here in the Philippines. There are plenty of home rentals, Western food, banking opportunities and most things a new expat would need. Barangay Daro around Ace Hospital and Piapi around Neva's pizza are safe and generally quiet areas to live. Bacong and Valencia are also options. If you are seeking other expats in your life there are more than enough in Dumaguete. My first 7 years in the country were spent there and I have no regrets. The downside for me is traffic, too many expats and generally the cost of most things is about 20-25% higher compared to say Bais city, Bindoy or Bayawan. But again, a great place to live while you make the adjustment to life here and also figure out what you are truly seeking in retirement.

    Probably not a good idea going on the Ferris wheel after the Mexican dinner? Entertaining video. Thank you for sharing. Take care. 😊

    21:04 The design of that ferris wheel is based on US ferris wheels from the 1950s, especially those found in small town USA

      @@garyzeinert7126 oh okay.. Keep in mind Dumaguete is a city with the traffic and noise that comes with it, but Valencia seemed to be quite nice, very green and cooler climate! It seems you might have to luck out finding a room there. I have no idea though. Good restaurants down in Dumaguete with a mall, a ferry port, and an airport, which is probably why people chose that area. Some other islands are missing some of those things. I wasn't there long enough to know how it is living there though. Good luck with the move!

    The sisig on the sizzling plate is better because it is crunchy, more on the fried side and with egg too, than the one you ate which looks oily.

    One RUclipsrs said it stunk in Dumaguete. Is that true? How about Valencia?

    Lack of international flights put me off Dumagete. Kalibo, cebu, clark, or tagliboran. If direct flight to iloilo, I would chose it. Direct flight to ICN is very useful.
