Always a big fan AJ. Legendary steps along you expat journey to the PH as one of it's youngest foreign members. I'll be there soon claiming your title :) (I'm 40) . Thinking either calapan or iloilo. Not a big beach bum so dumaguete seems too hot and im happy to do my own thing in the most remote areas of the philippines hehe (I've spent a good amount ther so know how to operate).
Hey thanks, go wherever you like. The main benefits of Dumaguete are the large expat community, the food options and how there's so many getaway locations close to town.
@@ajphilippineexpat Yea actually in my research i've recently learned there are many large expat communities there in the philippines, I just think the youtubers took over dumaguete haha. EG: Puerta galera is over 50% foreigners according to my contact who lives there. All bars and debauchery haha. I actually think i wanna live a more isolated in the more true philippines though, away from too many other expats. As my early plans arent retirement and chatting it up with othe classy expats.. But rather starting some businesses there, invest in the economy and helping the country a better place for everyone. Especially with a nice girl to motivate me! So currently considering Calapan - its a bit away from puerta galera, and far enough from manila that there is no traffic, almost zero foreigners.. Just a true little Filipino town. But not so isolated that i couldn't work there , they have great quality PLDT fiber since its not over populated / over subscribed. Somewhere perhaps a bit outside of town on the mountains , rent 3-4 buildings, build my own little estate - as long its within where they can run the fiber. (my finances a bit different than the average retired expat to say the least haha) . Else ilolio also on my list, a small chunk of foreigners there, especially you can find them in mega world at the bars, but not crowded with em like dumaguete, puerta galera, manila, lapulapu, etc. Met a brit who runs one of the bigger solar companies there, very chill classy man. I'll be there in may, gonna possibly look at some houses while im there, see if I can meet a cool real estate agent. Final move is scheduled for november, possibly earlier depending on my how 2nd company goes (doing a tech startup, lots of fun). Trying out the toronto to manila direct flight (brand new ULTRA long range A350) Cheers and keep up the good work. Learning a lot from your videos despite my fairly large existing PH knowledgebase.
Haha, it's a mesh jacket made from ballistic nylon. It's hot if you're standing still in the sun but when moving, or there's a good breeze, it's comfy.

Do you find your leather jacket too hot over there? Thanks
