Hey p keep coming up with those movies thank you a real sweet lady with a really great personality that really shows and you're always so happy most of the time I've also noticed you use hand gesture a lot when you're speaking which works great it's definitely helped on your English a lot I've noticed wow you must have took classes on speaking English or grew up speaking English as well as your own language which is how do you keep those two apart guess you have to have that be able to think two things at once on two different separate projects at the same time got to be smart to know how to do that but then some people are just naturally born with that gift of talent looks like you're one of them so in my book the crabs of the world don't let him drag you down you're better than that I can see that but like I said keep making those movies I enjoy watching you and your friend that you the one that records your movies for you that one female I can't remember her name she's really nice too but y'all have a wonderful evening over in the Philippines good night my sweet friends
I do not understand giving your money to a person you dont know? I do understand maybe $100 USD a month to communicate with you and help with small needs! But after a couple months visit for a month see if you like it?
Props to the dude that lost $1.4 MILLION USD to a Philipina scammer. HOLY CRAP!! How does he have such a positive attitude after that?? Would really like to dig into this guy's life story and resiliency after hearing that!!
I guess he has had time to get past it and realizing there is Zero that can be done about it. Most are calling him a fool, but its good to see that there are trusting honest people out there. Its just sad they get taken advantage of.
He's definitely one to follow as an example. Most men, including me would probably have a hard time recovering from such a loss. But, I think he's an extreme case.
Yeah, but it's not alright what happened like he said it was. He was foolish and would of been better to pay my poor butt to take care of that for him, he would of had a nice place and I would of saw it done right. It's a problem we can't own land there.
Filipina Pea, I REALLY ENJOYED THIS VIDEO, I AM AN AMERICAN THAT WANTS TO LIVE IN PHILLIPINES, BECAUSE I HEAR AND SEE THE FILIPINO PEOPLE IS VERY FRIENDLY AND LOVING AND THAT'S WHAT I NEED IN MY LIFE.
In my travels I've spent about five months in the Philippines, and I was pleased to find out that your interviewees have come pretty much to the same conclusions that i have. I look forward to going back when the borders reopen. ($1.4 million loss! And that guy is still optimistic and positive--that's kind of a miracle. He is one unique individual.)
Holy cow 61 million, that is amazing and his attitude is pretty good. You make it really enjoyed the diversity in your interviews, and seeing what they all have in common. Keep up the good work thanks.🙏🙏

By the way, I read a funny comment on youtube last year somewhere you'll prob like. This guy said his girlfriend's name is Michelle, this was a girl Vietnam. The other guy said to him, "No that's her bar name, not her real name", ha ha.
In the Philippines foreign citizens can’t own any property. The house you buy is your wife’s or partners house. There are many beautiful Filipino more mature women which are stable and loyal. Younger women are more likely to get fed up and leave sometimes after your money been spent 🙁💁♂️
I love the Philippines (pre-covid), but after 2-3 months, I head back to Queensland Australia for a break, and some peace and quiet, Two-stroke motors, roosters, dogs, and traffic takes it toll. Afterwards, I'm refreshed and want to go back. The Filipino people are the #1 reason I will return after covid. Wonderful people.
I engaged in a chat on Old Dog Paul's channel talking about this video. I thought I would post what I said about your video here too: "That guy, the one who lost over $1M, impacted me, changed my perception. I grew up in a tough neighborhood and learned early to avoid con artists. So I've always considered people who got conned to be dupes responsible for their own stupidity. Pea's guy was a decent man. He accepted and shrugged off his loss, took responsibility. I realized, not everybody got the street-wise education I did. When men are victimized, I tend to hold them responsible when actually the woman who conned this guy is a criminal. She's the villain, not him."
I am sorry to say this, but swindled out of 1.4million USD??? WOW!!! That is incredible. I have no words. Be VERY careful...I cannot IMAGINE getting swindled for that much money over 5 years. Hell, I could not imagine giving ANY woman that much money. Crazy.
Either she was a world class con artist or he was a world class fool at the time. But, I think he's got more money and decided it wasn't worth his health and happiness to wallow in pity and anger. Good for him 👏
He did not give that woman anything. You make it sound like he had the hots for a filipina and when she asked for 1.4 million he gave it to her. He got scammed. She played the long con on him. I bet she had multiple family member, maybe even government officials, legit forms and many other things to make everything seem legit. I get it, he should have at least visited and finalized things in person.
I find it refreshing that you are straight forward and honest and genuinely want to help people in making the right choices. You have a good sense of humor also! Hopefully you will still be real when you achieve youtube fame. Cheers stay safe.
Thanks to all the gentlemen for telling their stories and giving their honest opinions, both good and bad, to hopefully save some of us from making the same mistakes. And thank you Pea for being drop dead gorgeous!
After I spent 4 years walking the Clark AFB, I knew what was in the Philippines. After retiring, I came back as soon as I could. I retired from a US base in March. And arrived back in the Philippines in April. And I've never left this beautiful country, from that time.
@@TheFilipinaPea I even wanted to be come a citizen of this beautiful country, until I found out, I wouldn't be permitted to have duel citizen ship and would have to give up my American citizen ship. That would mean, I'd lose my military retired pay.(equal to P200,000 PESOS per month!) I'm working on how to replace it, but it is difficult to just let that be taken away from me. And Yes! I do love this country, with all my heart and soul!!!!! I may give my military retired pay up in the future anyway.
I really enjoy the 'man on the street' format. Am sure they enjoy talking to you, too! You must've thought you hit the jackpot with that one guy who lost all the money. Sad story but glad the guy is ok. Am sure it will haunt him for the rest of his life, though.
@@TheFilipinaPea I wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s necessarily inappropriate for civilians or others to say Semper fi, but it’s looked at as a bit weird if you say the phrase and did not serve in the United States Marine Corps. It’s more of a signal for one Marine to another here in the states as it’s apart of our culture. No hate, just informing you in case you’re confronted Pea. Much love 😄
Very enchanting Pea , a marvelous interviewer that u r , & ur creativity is par excellence as we say in the West. That was very enlightening & really I see u being , even further, an excellent straw to stir a much better drink, so to speak, w/ ur influence to share amongst the people w/ ur cheer, insightful inquiry, & endearing charm as a lot may come forth, even further , from ur thoughtful 🤔 efforts & useful service to the world 🌍 that u r contributing… if u think about it, ur kind of like the daily pep pill that lends zest to our otherwise blasé existence - look forward to the next editions (additions) thank u so much for helping me prepare for my trip there …
Well done, very informative! I can't wait to visit and check things out. The one thing I know for sure, I don't want to live near a big city (I don't do that here either - I live on a ranch in a national forest), live near by would be ok because would like to visit shops and theaters etc but I don't like people living close (500ft) to me. So a nice little ranch somewhere with a little bit of land would be perfect. ALWAYS love the humor at the end of your videos! Have a great day. HUGS
Pea, i have a very accurate idea of what to expect when i get to your country. Your videos and sage advice are paramount to any westerner as far as what to expect in nearly every situation im liable to encounter. Your love for your people and your country are evident as well as love for all human beings. Bless you my friend!
Expect nothing from no one except yourself. I wish this young lady was closer to direct my RUclips videos! This young lady is going places with success!
Spot On, I lived in the Philippines for several years (I live in Colorado now) and I am thinking of moving back, it is as you say and found out... GREAT Review, Kiddo... Keep up the Good Work!!!
Omg 😂 pea when I saw you react to the second interviewee when he said how much he spend of his retirement you almost had a heart attack and your heart almost jump out of your chest 😂. Pea salamat po for shearing their stories with all of us. I'm a Puerto Rican 🇵🇷in love with your country 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭.
Good morning Pea. I love to watch your videos while I'm having my morning coffee. You keep me company very well. I just broke up with my online "girlfriend" of 8 months. I found out that she had other foreigner boyfriends as well as a Filipino boyfriend. My lesson learned is to just wait until I get there to seek companionship. Online is just too risky. Thank you for your effort to inform foreigners about the good, the bad and the ugly of the Philippines. One thing I don't think you have covered in your videos is what kind of shots and vaccines should foreigners get before coming to the Philippines in order to avoid some of the common illnesses in your country. That might make a good video also. Hugs and kisses from the USA. See you soon.
@@TheFilipinaPea in the right environment marriage can appear to be a mirage✨ & Greå🌱 sonG 🎼 Canary in a coaL mine, by The Police ☂️😁🙏🏻 Maranung ka na ✨
It would be difficult to stay single for 8 years in the Philippines, it would get old playboying all the time. It would be fun don't get me wrong, I suspect he has a live in gf or maybe he is a gay
It is rare to see content creators include video that isn't either obviously supportive or confrontational to gain views. Your videos are honest and entertaining. Thank you Pea
Hi Pea, My brother is married to a Filipina and they live in Hong Kong now and he will retire in the Philippines and your video gave me more insight to living there myself, thanks.
My wife is from Cebu City, and I fell in love with both she and the Philippines instantly. I've been to several islands but Cebu is my favorite place. My wife and I are buying a vacation house there and will be retiring there in about 20 years, it's such a fun, beautiful place! Great video Pea!
Excellent interviews. I've been debating between moving toThailand, Mexico or the Philippines.This video definitely influenced my thinking in favor of the Philippines. I especially liked the fact that the Philippines has a lot of English speakers and is expat friendly. I cannot wait to get out of the USA before the county goes completely bonkers. Thanks Pea, Good Show!
I visited Mexico often when I lived in USA and often thought about moving to Puerto Vallarta. Then I lived in China for 12 years and visited all around Asia - Philippines is by far best choice for me for the reasons these guys gave and more. Plan is next year to retire from full time work and take up residence there.
Thia food is heaven. and a bit more organised as a country. PH destroy perfectly good food. PH had more freedoms than alot of countries. just visit all of them
I’m SO glad to hear that, Capt! Some people like the interview style, some like the studio videos, some people like the charity ones, so I just keep changing the rotation 😂
Pea, Thanks for this video. I love that you give us the benefit of the actual ex-pats living in your country. I also love the little funny parts you always do at the end. You're adorable.
That pause at 15:41 " ive heard that many times from my............western friends". LOL, I am very flattered at your fluency and grammar comprehension of and around the english language .
@@TheFilipinaPea where did you learn to speak so fluent english ? I know a few pinoys who have a master degree in english, and you can still hear the filipino english from them
I have been watching you from almost the beginning of your blogs. You do come across as mostly American in experience but with a solid Filipina background. This is a compliment!
Dumaguete.. ohh how i remember that place when i was traveling thrue phillepines. my biggest regret was that i dident stay there longer. hopefully i can return some day.
Great presentation PEA, I will miss being able to visit you and Jen,so long as I will not get the mandatory vaccine to fly... Love and keep up the awesome content.
The more I watch your content the more you come across as a really nice person. I’m coming to Manila in April this year and I thank you for the advice. Stay safe and take care. Hugs from the UK 😊
WisCANson. Yep. He is from there. 🤣 Love the guy at time code 13:17. No filters whatsoever! And apparently the "beautiful young women" factor is his best selling point. Shame on you though, Miss Pea, for touching him on the arm like that. If his wife sees that, he'll have some explaining to do! 😂 Never understood why people don't like Filipino food. I love lumpia, and I remember a yakisoba dish that my girlfriend there made that was awesome! And who doesn't like spit roasted pig! Another great interview video, Miss Pea. Very informative.
I will be moving in a few years, have a couple of condos Cebu and some land in CDO and Siquijor, looking to keep our Pesos in the PI and Dollars in the USA, might have to sell a house or 2 here in America but should be good. also access to the VA hospital is a plus. Can you say Sabong? Grew up fighting in Hawaii, plan on fighting in CDO.
I'm Filipino born in the Philippines but grew up in the US. I never had the desire to be with a Filipina. Not that there's anything wrong with a Filipina. I just think of them as my sister therefore I can't get myself to sleep with any of them. It's weird but that's how I feel.
Interesting mix of interviews there, I'm curious how many of them asked for your number 🤣🤣. Another reminder never to send money to someone you haven't met. Slower pace of life and friendly people sounds ideal as a retirement desitination 😁
I am not sure I think this year would be an exception for sending her a small amount every month small but sufficient amount so you don’t have to worry about her.
I wish u could talk to at least one brotha. I’m black n wish to hear how they like is there too. But your Chanel is much joy to me. I always look forward to watch your new postings. Keep up the good job. 😘😘
I’m black and been to the Philippines and you don’t see that many black men there because the military base is gone. Also, like me a lot of the fillapina women in America date and marry black men, or either other Filipinos. You will never see a fillapina in America with an old dude unless she was brought her back. Once she becomes Americanized she leaves for a younger man. Also, a lot of black men still do not travel internationally, for one it’s expensive to travel and the other reason is they don’t look to go elsewhere.
Hey Pea, my crush, I had another thought (I know, I'm just full of them lately) Since your channel centers around bridging communication between our respective cultures, this should be right up your alley. While talking to Filipino ladies with limited English skills, I oftentimes find my words misinterpreted. Perhaps a video highlighting how similes between English and the spoken languages of your country have alternate meaning. This would require research on your part, but I know of no one else who have the requisite skills to make this happen. Maybe you could title it: "You Said What". Haha, always your friend. Tom
By capturing a cross-section of regular guys (as opposed to bitter expats or just plain weirdos), this video answers more questions about moving to the Philippines than just about any other article or video I've read or seen. I'm convinced.
Hi Pea! Another most excellent video, in fact, this may be your best so far. You could have easily edited out negative comments, but you, as a true professional shared them with us mere mortals. You are an amazing person and I look forward to one day meeting you in person and shaking your hand. Keep up the fantastic videos.. You are awesome!!
Thank you for your energy and investigation into reality in your beautiful country. This is priceless ⚡⚡ Thank you for your determination. Greetings from South Africa 😂🤗
The Filipina Pea roaming interviewer... letting foreigners " tell it like it is " ....yes they have some of the most beautiful women you would find anywhere....nicely done!
I do not know this lady personally. However, her honest, realistic, no-punches-pulled approach deserves respect. I've (as many MGTOWs) decided to give it one more go and look at where the most traditional and age deifying women still exist (SEAs) you are a hilarious breath of fresh air. Keep doing you Pea
Thank you SO much for giving us another try, and for finding my channel. If you haven’t already watched my video called Taking The Red Pill, please do! 😊
There is probably more to it. Nobody gives away their whole pension to a stranger on the street; He got groomed for about five years. If you are lonely, depressed, in distance love, and have never experienced being preyed upon before, you become very vulnerable. It looks like he understands what he did wasn't the brightest decision in his life, and handles that for what it is and doesn't waste his last days in regret; that would be foolish.
It's sad, the cognitive dissonance. I believe so many men even wife up just because they are thirsty and it's only way they can rationalize they have found love when it's just financial security for the lady. Peace.
I don't know why I watch your videos so much. I've been married to a great Thai lady for 13 years, and have no desire to move to the P.I., but the subjects that you bring up are pretty much universal in SE Asia. Your charm and your intelligence just show through every one of your videos. This particular one was a great idea. I don't know how long you can continue at this pace, but you're one incredible young woman, and I wish you all the best.
Thanks so much, Mike! I’m very flattered that you like to watch my videos, even if you have no direct interest in my country. (and I’ll keep up this pace till I drop - which could be at any time) 😂
Hi Pea. I like the interviews. Not sure about some of the fellas this time. Maybe interview some Filipinas on their idea of what makes a good man... other than money 😂😂😂 peace ✌️
Majority of Filipina believe on idea of age is just a number. But me, no! Age is more than just a number and tells experience. My point, what makes a good man is his intelligence and ethical behavior. ☺️
If you adapt to the locals and don't expect them to adapt to your ways and expectations you won't go far wrong,just remember it's their country and culture,if you don't like that don't go.
Just saw your videos today for the first time. This was my second one and I just subscribed.. you have a good personality and your video keeps me interested and smiling…. Thanks
It is a misnomer that there are no rules in the Philippines. Actually, the Philippines does have traffic laws resembling the West, and more overall regulation of everything in general. The real difference is enforcement and compliance. Philippine laws are so rarely or loosely enforced that people do not follow them. There is one unwritten Filipino traffic law that trumps all others. The bigger your vehicle, the more right of way you have on the road.
I’m still shocked by the 1.4 million dollars . But he seemed like he got past it remarkably well . I wish I could say I would have handled it so well . I would still be chasing her down lmao . The one guy was funny when he said the women are Beautiful and you can have a girlfriend half your age he . He said it like three times with a shocked look on his face . I think he was there three years and still couldn’t believe it 😂. Have a great day Pea!
One subject I would like to see covered for those of us thinking about retiring to the Philippines....What can we expect in the way of health care in the Philippines? As one who is a reader and constantly wanting to learn, what are the educational opportunities there? Are the cultural and performing arts events there? Thanks, Terry W.
Okay, you convinced me to come to the Philippines to retire and find the girl of my dreams. But when can I come? Damned COVID! Thanks again, Miss Pea for another informative invitation to your lovely country (have visited 3 times... just waiting to make a final journey there).
@@JordanMelbyVlogs Duterte did the right thing. If covid-19 can put America's medical system under pressure, imagine what it could do to the Philippines. Thank God you're not president if the Philippines!
@@ianjustin1468 Well people in the philippines are younger than in the US, so more asymptomatic and more low-risk people than in the US inhabited by many overweight and people in bad health...
Highly recommend a visit to the Philippines , been there several times . Visited most major cities there and have lived in remote countryside. Great country and beautiful warm people .
WOW..50,000 subscribers!..That didn't take long...Haha..I even predicted that shortly after you had around 5,000 ..you like took off like tree climbing ninja.. 😁⚘

The number 1 reason why those guys are in the Philippines is usually women. All of the other stuff comes way after. The same goes for Colombia 🇨🇴 Guess what? I can't blame them 😂
finally a good video content. I was honestly starting to get bored of some of your videos but video like this is very nice. Hope you will do more like this. Interviews is always great

Loneliness plus perceived love and affection from a woman can make the smartest most sane man do things he never thought he would.
YES!!!
NOPE. I strongly disagree on that one. Being Lonely should make a man even that much smarter, and more vigilant looking for these scammers.

Thanks to all the gentlemen for telling their stories and giving their honest opinions, both good and bad, to hopefully save some of us from making the same mistakes. And thank you Pea for being drop dead gorgeous!
Sometimes I feel to comment during your videos, then I laugh at the end. You videos are always good.
your videos are awesome. Thanks for the insight and humor.
After I spent 4 years walking the Clark AFB, I knew what was in the Philippines. After retiring, I came back as soon as I could. I retired from a US base in March. And arrived back in the Philippines in April. And I've never left this beautiful country, from that time.
Wow, you must really love it!! ❤️
@@TheFilipinaPea I even wanted to be come a citizen of this beautiful country, until I found out, I wouldn't be permitted to have duel citizen ship and would have to give up my American citizen ship. That would mean, I'd lose my military retired pay.(equal to P200,000 PESOS per month!)
I'm working on how to replace it, but it is difficult to just let that be taken away from me. And Yes! I do love this country, with all my heart and soul!!!!! I may give my military retired pay up in the future anyway.
This was a good one Pea! Keep up the ever-increasing great VLOGs
Thanks so much, Horace!!
I really enjoy the 'man on the street' format. Am sure they enjoy talking to you, too! You must've thought you hit the jackpot with that one guy who lost all the money. Sad story but glad the guy is ok. Am sure it will haunt him for the rest of his life, though.
I was more than halfway through the interview when he dropped that bomb! 💣
Been looking more than 20 Pea videos and like to say that i learn a lot,
so thank you so much Pea❤
Thank YOU so much, Per - people who watch my videos earn me a paycheck, so I really appreciate that 👍❤️
@ 30:49 Oh my. You making me think of the goregeous flight stewardesses of Cebu Pacific!!!😃😃😃. LMFAO!!! The emergency advice u gave🤣🤣🤣 @ 31:18
I almost worked for Cebu Pacific as a stewardess 😊

Those were some very interesting interviews. Great job Pea, I can see your own TV show in the future.
Semper Fidelis🇺🇸
I promise, I’m staying right here on RUclips!
Semper Fi 🇺🇸
@@TheFilipinaPea I wouldn’t go as far as saying it’s necessarily inappropriate for civilians or others to say Semper fi, but it’s looked at as a bit weird if you say the phrase and did not serve in the United States Marine Corps. It’s more of a signal for one Marine to another here in the states as it’s apart of our culture. No hate, just informing you in case you’re confronted Pea. Much love 😄
Very enchanting Pea , a marvelous interviewer that u r , & ur creativity is par excellence as we say in the West.
That was very enlightening & really I see u being , even further, an excellent straw to stir a much better drink, so to speak, w/ ur influence to share amongst the people w/ ur cheer, insightful inquiry, & endearing charm as a lot may come forth, even further , from ur thoughtful 🤔 efforts & useful service to the world 🌍 that u r contributing… if u think about it, ur kind of like the daily pep pill that lends zest to our otherwise blasé existence - look forward to the next editions (additions) thank u so much for helping me prepare for my trip there …
Well done, very informative! I can't wait to visit and check things out. The one thing I know for sure, I don't want to live near a big city (I don't do that here either - I live on a ranch in a national forest), live near by would be ok because would like to visit shops and theaters etc but I don't like people living close (500ft) to me. So a nice little ranch somewhere with a little bit of land would be perfect.
ALWAYS love the humor at the end of your videos! Have a great day. HUGS
I’m glad you get my humor, Todd 👍😂
@@TheFilipinaPea I get it and love it! A lady with a senor of humor is highly attractive! Stay Safe!
Pea, i have a very accurate idea of what to expect when i get to your country. Your videos and sage advice are paramount to any westerner as far as what to expect in nearly every situation im liable to encounter. Your love for your people and your country are evident as well as love for all human beings. Bless you my friend!
I can't hardly wait to get there to my beautiful Filipina. I'll be in Toubajon Village. Northern Mendinou.
Expect nothing from no one except yourself. I wish this young lady was closer to direct my RUclips videos! This young lady is going places with success!
Spot On, I lived in the Philippines for several years (I live in Colorado now) and I am thinking of moving back, it is as you say and found out...
GREAT Review, Kiddo...
Keep up the Good Work!!!
Thanks so much, Trtphnx! 😊
Omg 😂 pea when I saw you react to the second interviewee when he said how much he spend of his retirement you almost had a heart attack and your heart almost jump out of your chest 😂.
Pea salamat po for shearing their stories with all of us. I'm a Puerto Rican 🇵🇷in love with your country 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭.
I can’t even IMAGINE 1.4 million US Dollars! 😂
@ javier Don't let out the secret

that's a lot of money to give to someone you have never seen.

Since I have married a beautiful Filipina 12+ years ago, your videos just re-inforce what a wise decision I was blessed to make...praise God!
Thank you for this (and all the other ones) video
Well, that seals it. I will be coming ASAP. Lunch is on me.
Good morning Pea. I love to watch your videos while I'm having my morning coffee. You keep me company very well.
I just broke up with my online "girlfriend" of 8 months. I found out that she had other foreigner boyfriends as well as a Filipino boyfriend. My lesson learned is to just wait until I get there to seek companionship. Online is just too risky.
Thank you for your effort to inform foreigners about the good, the bad and the ugly of the Philippines.
One thing I don't think you have covered in your videos is what kind of shots and vaccines should foreigners get before coming to the Philippines in order to avoid some of the common illnesses in your country. That might make a good video also.
Hugs and kisses from the USA. See you soon.
Single for eight years....smart man!
Marriage is NOT for everyone!

@@TheFilipinaPea it's never been for me. But doesn't it bring you trouble as a foreigner in the Philippines?
It would be difficult to stay single for 8 years in the Philippines, it would get old playboying all the time. It would be fun don't get me wrong, I suspect he has a live in gf or maybe he is a gay
It is rare to see content creators include video that isn't either obviously supportive or confrontational to gain views. Your videos are honest and entertaining. Thank you Pea
Lmao Arthur is wearing gloves like there's a blizzard coming 😂 🤣 ok enough from me lol! Good video Miss.Pea
Hi Pea, My brother is married to a Filipina and they live in Hong Kong now and he will retire in the Philippines and your video gave me more insight to living there myself, thanks.
Loved this one, Pea. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Anyone that bases a relationship of money, dump em!
Agreed!
I'm an ex-Marine and i love the Philippines. Ive been here in Calbayog City since April 24, 2019
My wife is from Cebu City, and I fell in love with both she and the Philippines instantly. I've been to several islands but Cebu is my favorite place. My wife and I are buying a vacation house there and will be retiring there in about 20 years, it's such a fun, beautiful place! Great video Pea!
Excellent interviews. I've been debating between moving toThailand, Mexico or the Philippines.This video definitely influenced my thinking in favor of the Philippines. I especially liked the fact that the Philippines has a lot of English speakers and is expat friendly. I cannot wait to get out of the USA before the county goes completely bonkers. Thanks Pea, Good Show!
I do agree with you
Please do visit!!!!!!!!!!!!
I visited Mexico often when I lived in USA and often thought about moving to Puerto Vallarta. Then I lived in China for 12 years and visited all around Asia - Philippines is by far best choice for me for the reasons these guys gave and more. Plan is next year to retire from full time work and take up residence there.
@@TheFilipinaPea how, when
Thia food is heaven. and a bit more organised as a country. PH destroy perfectly good food. PH had more freedoms than alot of countries. just visit all of them
I do believe that this is one of my favorite videos. Well done, Pea.
I’m SO glad to hear that, Capt! Some people like the interview style, some like the studio videos, some people like the charity ones, so I just keep changing the rotation 😂
@@TheFilipinaPea Maybe it was the beer.
Some people love every genre and the diversity you so expertly offer so kindly
I love the food. Wonderful exotic fruit , fish and lovely vegetables . My husband and family are great at home cooking . Ma Sarap 🌻💖🦚
Pea, Thanks for this video. I love that you give us the benefit of the actual ex-pats living in your country. I also love the little funny parts you always do at the end. You're adorable.
Watching 12 months on from this video, fascinating Pea !
That pause at 15:41 " ive heard that many times from my............western friends". LOL, I am very flattered at your fluency and grammar comprehension of and around the english language .
Well thanks! The two guys I interviewed at the end kept insisting I was American 😂
@@TheFilipinaPea If I didnt know any better I would agree with them.
@@TheFilipinaPea where did you learn to speak so fluent english ? I know a few pinoys who have a master degree in english, and you can still hear the filipino english from them
I have been watching you from almost the beginning of your blogs. You do come across as mostly American in experience but with a solid Filipina background. This is a compliment!
Dumaguete.. ohh how i remember that place when i was traveling thrue phillepines. my biggest regret was that i dident stay there longer. hopefully i can return some day.
You should do a series interviewing single women of all ages. 👍
I loved the interviews Miss Pea...Well done!! Kudos Kudos!!! Ralph Johnson Jr.
😲 Wow! She's so beautiful!
Love that long hair on The Pea!
Great presentation PEA, I will miss being able to visit you and Jen,so long as I will not get the mandatory vaccine to fly... Love and keep up the awesome content.
I have a feeling you’ll make it somehow, some way! And you have to - I thought we had a date???? 😂
Pea I love your on the street interviews.. you do a great job of asking questions 😊
Thanks! I’m glad you liked the format, Lajuan!!! 😊
The more I watch your content the more you come across as a really nice person. I’m coming to Manila in April this year and I thank you for the advice. Stay safe and take care. Hugs from the UK 😊
Thanks NPH! I hope you enjoy your stay (you will) 😂👍
WisCANson. Yep. He is from there. 🤣
Love the guy at time code 13:17. No filters whatsoever! And apparently the "beautiful young women" factor is his best selling point. Shame on you though, Miss Pea, for touching him on the arm like that. If his wife sees that, he'll have some explaining to do! 😂
Never understood why people don't like Filipino food. I love lumpia, and I remember a yakisoba dish that my girlfriend there made that was awesome! And who doesn't like spit roasted pig!
Another great interview video, Miss Pea. Very informative.
I will be moving in a few years, have a couple of condos Cebu and some land in CDO and Siquijor, looking to keep our Pesos in the PI and Dollars in the USA, might have to sell a house or 2 here in America but should be good. also access to the VA hospital is a plus. Can you say Sabong? Grew up fighting in Hawaii, plan on fighting in CDO.
I'm Filipino born in the Philippines but grew up in the US. I never had the desire to be with a Filipina. Not that there's anything wrong with a Filipina. I just think of them as my sister therefore I can't get myself to sleep with any of them. It's weird but that's how I feel.
Yes, that's weird. Very weird.
I know what you mean bro
Interesting mix of interviews there, I'm curious how many of them asked for your number 🤣🤣.
Another reminder never to send money to someone you haven't met. Slower pace of life and friendly people sounds ideal as a retirement desitination 😁
Only two asked for my number 😂
I am not sure I think this year would be an exception for sending her a small amount every month small but sufficient amount so you don’t have to worry about her.
Watching your videos makes me feel like going there even faster.
Excellent interviews Pea, can't wait to get there. Great video as always....!
I wish u could talk to at least one brotha. I’m black n wish to hear how they like is there too. But your Chanel is much joy to me. I always look forward to watch your new postings. Keep up the good job. 😘😘
Give sunshine shoulders a try
I promise, George, if I can find a black guy to interview - I will! There are very very very very few here
@@TheFilipinaPea yea thats a sad reality but its changing slowly.
I’m black and been to the Philippines and you don’t see that many black men there because the military base is gone. Also, like me a lot of the fillapina women in America date and marry black men, or either other Filipinos. You will never see a fillapina in America with an old dude unless she was brought her back. Once she becomes Americanized she leaves for a younger man. Also, a lot of black men still do not travel internationally, for one it’s expensive to travel and the other reason is they don’t look to go elsewhere.
Hey Pea, my crush, I had another thought (I know, I'm just full of them lately) Since your channel centers around bridging communication between our respective cultures, this should be right up your alley. While talking to Filipino ladies with limited English skills, I oftentimes find my words misinterpreted. Perhaps a video highlighting how similes between English and the spoken languages of your country have alternate meaning. This would require research on your part, but I know of no one else who have the requisite skills to make this happen. Maybe you could title it: "You Said What". Haha, always your friend. Tom
By capturing a cross-section of regular guys (as opposed to bitter expats or just plain weirdos), this video answers more questions about moving to the Philippines than just about any other article or video I've read or seen. I'm convinced.
Thanks Stoneaged! 😊
Hi Pea! Another most excellent video, in fact, this may be your best so far. You could have easily edited out negative comments, but you, as a true professional shared them with us mere mortals. You are an amazing person and I look forward to one day meeting you in person and shaking your hand. Keep up the fantastic videos.. You are awesome!!
Thanks Zeta! It’s my mission to bring the REAL Philippines to you folks - nothing but the truth 😊
Thank you for your energy and investigation into reality in your beautiful country. This is priceless ⚡⚡ Thank you for your determination. Greetings from South Africa 😂🤗
The one guy that said it's too busy in America has to realize it's as busy as you make it. I live a very easy going life.
Hey pea my beautiful friend, this definitely provokes thought. As far as I'm concerned, the Philippines exceeded my expectations.😊
I’m so glad to hear that you have low expectations!
Hahahahaha
The Filipina Pea roaming interviewer... letting foreigners " tell it like it is " ....yes they have some of the most beautiful women you would find anywhere....nicely done!
Thanks Rogue! So when are you coming? 😂
@@TheFilipinaPea when the Philippines opens up
@@roguetiger3163 kewl name. How did you come about it?
@@pjongray long story
I do not know this lady personally. However, her honest, realistic, no-punches-pulled approach deserves respect. I've (as many MGTOWs) decided to give it one more go and look at where the most traditional and age deifying women still exist (SEAs) you are a hilarious breath of fresh air. Keep doing you Pea
Thank you SO much for giving us another try, and for finding my channel. If you haven’t already watched my video called Taking The Red Pill, please do! 😊
Pea, you are so funny, you make my day every day. love you...
I’m sorry to say it but the guy is a fool to give somebody that kind of money when you don’t even know them
I keep warning people, but ....... they do it anyway!
There is probably more to it. Nobody gives away their whole pension to a stranger on the street; He got groomed for about five years. If you are lonely, depressed, in distance love, and have never experienced being preyed upon before, you become very vulnerable. It looks like he understands what he did wasn't the brightest decision in his life, and handles that for what it is and doesn't waste his last days in regret; that would be foolish.
We call be had... but to that extent, for that amount, to someone never met? Ouch. At least I salute him for telling it.
It's sad, the cognitive dissonance. I believe so many men even wife up just because they are thirsty and it's only way they can rationalize they have found love when it's just financial security for the lady. Peace.
@@TheFilipinaPea Why do you think they do it Pea? If he had $1.4 million US dollars to spare, he couldn't have been a stupid man.
He's single for 8 years but he loves women lol he loves a LOT of different woman haha
Yep
He's a monger 100%
@@graguitar6493 Maybe. But he likely had a few long term relationships in those 8 years.
The best life.
I’m going to get a dog and learn to sing so I can fit in! Oh, and chickens!!
Hahahahaha
Pea, you're such a trip. I like watching your videos just to smile at your hokey jokes and bits!
I don't know why I watch your videos so much. I've been married to a great Thai lady for 13 years, and have no desire to move to the P.I., but the subjects that you bring up are pretty much universal in SE Asia. Your charm and your intelligence just show through every one of your videos. This particular one was a great idea. I don't know how long you can continue at this pace, but you're one incredible young woman, and I wish you all the best.
Thanks so much, Mike! I’m very flattered that you like to watch my videos, even if you have no direct interest in my country.
(and I’ll keep up this pace till I drop - which could be at any time) 😂
Hi Pea. I like the interviews. Not sure about some of the fellas this time. Maybe interview some Filipinas on their idea of what makes a good man... other than money 😂😂😂 peace ✌️
Majority of Filipina believe on idea of age is just a number. But me, no! Age is more than just a number and tells experience. My point, what makes a good man is his intelligence and ethical behavior. ☺️
If you adapt to the locals and don't expect them to adapt to your ways and expectations you won't go far wrong,just remember it's their country and culture,if you don't like that don't go.
True, but I do understand the foreigners frustrations (I should have never gone to the west, so I wouldn’t know what I was missing) 😂
I always pay cash in the USA you don’t have to pay with a credit card to buy things
Just saw your videos today for the first time. This was my second one and I just subscribed.. you have a good personality and your video keeps me interested and smiling…. Thanks
Most excellent. Thanks for sharing such a great video. always we love you always pray for your success. Fabulous video thank you for sharing
Thanks Hubby!! 😊
It is a misnomer that there are no rules in the Philippines. Actually, the Philippines does have traffic laws resembling the West, and more overall regulation of everything in general. The real difference is enforcement and compliance. Philippine laws are so rarely or loosely enforced that people do not follow them. There is one unwritten Filipino traffic law that trumps all others. The bigger your vehicle, the more right of way you have on the road.
I’m still shocked by the 1.4 million dollars . But he seemed like he got past it remarkably well . I wish I could say I would have handled it so well . I would still be chasing her down lmao . The one guy was funny when he said the women are Beautiful and you can have a girlfriend half your age he . He said it like three times with a shocked look on his face . I think he was there three years and still couldn’t believe it 😂. Have a great day Pea!
i blame him 100%
One subject I would like to see covered for those of us thinking about retiring to the Philippines....What can we expect in the way of health care in the Philippines? As one who is a reader and constantly wanting to learn, what are the educational opportunities there? Are the cultural and performing arts events there?
Thanks,
Terry W.
I’ll get to making that video soon!
Brilliant !
Pea is very pretty. But I enjoy her sprit and humor most. I’ve been watching all her old content and I have not found a bad video.
Wow, thanks a lot for that, Reggie 👍😊
Okay, you convinced me to come to the Philippines to retire and find the girl of my dreams. But when can I come? Damned COVID! Thanks again, Miss Pea for another informative invitation to your lovely country (have visited 3 times... just waiting to make a final journey there).
