Hey Paul loved this video. I am also visually impaired. I am married with two kids. My wife and I we’ve talked about going to the Philippines and possibly moving there to have a more simpler life but in my case my sight loss has always just popped up in my mind and aren’t in our conversations considering I didn’t think that I would be able to get around there and the people would understand but in watching your interviewing this gentleman makes me have hope and believe that the Philippines would except my site loss, and that we could actually probably make a life out there with our kids. Thank you so much and hopefully someday we could meet who knows my only fear is 22:06 😊😊❤😊😊not knowing how to get a visa out there and how the three-year visa thing works. If you have any information maybe you can do a video or contact me I’m willing to give you my number and we can do a WhatsApp call. Thank you. God bless you keep up the good work
Hey Joe I'm glad you enjoyed the video and it was very easy for my Visa extensions they basically did it for me and I just paid them 😊 just need to bring some money and your passport.
Paul did an interview with another blind gentleman very recently as well. That was also a really good interview, and the blind guy seemed like an incredible human being, and very funny
Just be in a right place to live in the Philippines and you will surely be happy here. This interview is very informative for expats who has impairment.
@@RobinthePhilippines Hi Robin. Although I am not an art fan I was my best friend’s best customer for years. I purchased 10+ pieces over 20 years when he was “starving” . I gifted the pieces over the years to friends, family and co-workers. Today he shows his work in a few galleries and can now pay his rent regularly, lol. I would like to purchase a piece or two from your work. Where can I view your work? Hang in there i’m pulling for you.
A lot of people in his situation would be hiding in a small apartment back home, lonely and with nothing to look forward to. I think it's great that he is putting himself out there and living on his own terms without fear. I really hope things work out for this young man. In truth, his challenges aren't that much different than many older expats; limited income, medical issues etc. so there is no reason he cant do this. Paul is right. This young man is an inspiration.
Rob is a total inspiration. I can't even imagine anyone with a good heart saying anything negative about him or his situation. Hearing he's so much happier their is so awesome.
I DO NOT see a train wreck! This young man has gone about this adventure very intelligently. He setup his meds, his money and everything else. Even more so, he has planned a one year trail, to make sure it is right for him. I wish him the best in everything he does, either there or in the US if he decides to go back. Rob, you are doing a great job, keep it up.
Hey Guy! Kudos to you young man. All of us have a story and usually play their own violin and get nowhere but deeper into despair. Not you! I'm sure you have your moments too. You are navigating your destiny NOW where too many of us wait till it's almost too late to realize joy. Get on with your bad self. I'm on your side. Glad you and Paul crossed paths ... he's awesome.
I had the pleasure meeting rob an his girlfriend with a few other people . He is a great guy and I give him a lot of credit for what he is doing and know he has good people around him there in the Philippines .Great interview Paul
What a great young man. My teacher in disability support years ago asked ''What value do PWD bring to everyone else?'' the class was a bit befuddled, myself included despite years prior working with PWD. She answered herself ''people with disabilities make everyone around them into better people.'' About the most important lesson in a year long university course.
Awesome Video. Rob is a great guy. He came out here with medical issues same as I did. The peace of mind of the positive atmosphere helps you mentally state and I believe that you will live longer because of it. Rob and I go around town. He helps steady me and I help him from running into stuff. He really gets around well and is a very patient positive guy and great friend
Thanks Paul & Rob. Viewing your video and hearing Robs story did what all your videos do for me - inspire. You in particular Paul are one of the expats I consider " a go to guy " and will make a special effort to meet when I come back home to the Philippines. I'd like to meet Rob and hopefully befriend him also.
Rob and Paul, you both are touching hundreds if not thousands of people with inspiration and positive energy. I admire you both, keep it up! Life is a gift, and you both are making the most of it.
I only wish i was as handsome as this kid.. His girl friend is lucky to be able to look at such a good looking young man. He is an inspiration to me. Bless the people of the Philipines.
Kid you are a hero. Your bravery has (and will) change lives. Enjoy your live, continue to be adventurous and take notice of how your efforts are helping others. I salute you.
this kid is an inspiration even for me and my health issues he took that chance and is living his life. Thats it i am taking that chance. Always wanted to go there now i am.
What a great young man. His attitude and story is so inspiring. I have never placed a comment online but I just felt that I had to this time. His future is going to be bright.
What a brave and nice young men after all he has been thru. I wish you all the best. You are a model of fighting for what is beautiful in your life. Great vídeo Paul.
I like this young man, he’s not crippled inside he’s living his life!!!!! He does what he likes and what he can, many other people are too scared or lack self confidence to even try, God Bless Bless ,Nick in Michigan
Hope he does well in the Philippines. My mom suffered with Crohn’s disease for many years and made life challenging. She tended to stay inside most of the time. This young man is making the best of his challenges and leading the life he wants. I salute him for bravery and perseverance.
What can I say except, OMG, another awesome video, Rob you are such an inspiration to us all, we all complain about our little issues here and there, and most of us have never experienced anything like what you are experiencing. You are strong and resilient and I personally admire that. The world should be full of people like you with your attitude and determination. @paul, wonderful video. Take care always, and enjoy life always. God Bless!!
I can't say enough good about Robert. What a great kid Paul. He painted a picture that I commented on and messaged me that he painted it for me. I don't have enough words to express my emotions. May God bless you Robert!!!
What an amazing and inspirational interview with Rob. He truly empower himself by doing more miles in his life unlike most people here in the US who are unable to cope with their challenges in life. Paul, thank you for giving him a platform to express himself and influence other people to make better and positive decisions in their lives like Rob!!
Very inspirational and courageous young man. A country of nurses, caregivers and maids will make for an easier life. A country of beautiful young women will make you think you are in heaven. Life doesn't get any better than what you have achieved. All the best to you.
Rob, you're a special guy, so humble, full of optimism and positive energy mate. Keep doing what makes you happy, and enjoy everything that the Philippines has to offer you, and yeah, Bob Ross is a Legend 👍 Ignore the haters, because they hate everyone, and they hate themselves the most.
I totally changed my mind after the bathroom break! The comfortable and happiness value is priceless. His kind personality will suit him well there- I sincerely hope so!
God bless you mate you're an inspiration to us all and it's people like you that push people like me(a lonely depressed 61 year old man) one step closer to that decision of starting a new life in the Philippines. Thanks to you also Paul for the great content. 😊
Paul, Thank You for the 2 videos on this inspiring young man. To be able to pick yourself up, from from the bottom, have the ruff upbringing, to go through the vices that come along, and got clean, and now is making his life a better place, and hopefully a long successful life, and if he wants a partner, he will have it. Rob, you are a good man, and I hope to meet you someday in the Philippines 😊
I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation - Rob's story is very inspiring & uplifting, and I hope he can spend many great years in the Philippines, not just one. Cheers Rob!
Rob has over came so much adversity and still over coming more as time goes on, but he truly has a great personality and attitude. God bless from future expat friend
Hey PAul, I am partially sighted due to an injury since I was 13, that's over 30yrs now, . I want to move to the Philippines myself, and I respect Rob for not sitting on his hands and instead getting out their and living live.
Rob, Thank you for sharing your story! What a huge demonstration of courage to pick up and head off to the Philippines ! So happy to hear your story and how you are creating a better future for yourself and not letting peoples hate and disdain hold you back! Shit talkers are cowards and someone like yourself just remind them of that! Rock on!
What a beautiful young man, so glad you introduced him to your viewers! This goes to show that some people persevere through the toughest times to come up on top, in his case, the ability to live life to the fullest despite his many challenges. I’m just thinking of his mom and how much she must miss him, while hoping for her son to find happiness. And yes, we all love Bob Ross, even here in Germany! ❤️
I recognize the young man from John’s group, and we spoke several times, and I never knew he was handicapped, I must say it’s impressive a man with his problems. Was still willing to help John.!, I think the young man is an inspiration to a whole lot of people ! And for the naysayers, they can keep staying home!, good luck, Robert, whenever I get to Dumaguete I’d like to see some of your paintings
I'm a Filipino living in California. I was born and raised in Manila and migrated to California when I was 20. My grandfather was an Irish kid from Minnesota, lied about his age at 16 and joined the Marines. He was then shipped to the Philippines where he took his discharge, married a local girl (my lola) and never went back to the US. LIstening to all these stories now I understand why.
My husband have Crohn’s disease too. He’s on stelara. We only pay $5 every 2 months and our insurance doesn’t cover. I think there’s a program that your gastro Dr can apply to Crohn’s foundation. We will be moving to Philippines next year and he can get his medication from Japan.
Well, what a nice genuine guy. I wasn't sure at the start of the first video but now I am. He's done his homework, has a plan, has a girlfriend, has health relief (climate, sun, heat etc) and he has an income (of course that helps a lot. I truly hope the good times continue and he's the type of person who fascinates me. However, I'm flat broke, my wife is in jail and my daughter only talks to me occasionally. I won't say too much else but I'm very close to giving up, my strength has almost gone. Yes, I live in the Philippines and have just been moved to an area miles from anywhere and hardly anyone to speak to in great length. I don't need help btw, I'm done with that.
@@lowbudget1661 First my wife being sentenced to life in prison for something she didn't do, then my daughter moving out and I was on my own. Then being evicted and now living in a beach hut from a 5 bed house with a pool. Then no food, no coffee and no cigarettes, loads of work on the internet but no payments yet. Big waves in sea today, perfect to just leave but must wait a few more days to see if any of my hard work finally pays.
So happy to see Rob settling in and it going well. Major relief! He definitely deserves a ton of luck and happiness..Certainly very humbling. Made me stop moaning!
Good for Rob! He's moving forward with his life! He's not sitting stagnant and feeling sorry for what he doesn't have but using what he has and finding joy! Keep up the good videos Paul! "You take care Rob" there are always jealous people that make stupid comments!
Really Paul? Someone gave a thumbs down on part 1 of this video? Maybe they were smoking a little something and got confused with the buttons :) Rob's an incredible young man who was dealt a challenging life and has turned his life around and working to keep it going good. Best wishes Rob and would enjoy seeing your paintings too and even how you paint. Thanks Paul!
it is interesting that there are videos from ex-pats which say the opposite regarding health care in the Phillipines...and also about personal safety in the Phillipines...I wish this young man good health and a comfortable life in the Phillipines...i'd be interested to see updates in the future
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 Thank you Paul for passing that on. This story really made me look deep inside myself and realize how good I really have it
Hang tough Rob! Very inspirational story sir. You should be proud of all you’ve overcome. I had part of my colon removed at a young age and that basically turns us into the crohns club. Visually you look a lot like the baseball player Cody Bellinger. Not a bad thing! I think you’re in the right place considering how empathetic Filipinas are
The inspirational story of how this young man overcame his adversity and came out winning! Thank you Paul for this timely video that has truly inspired all your viewers including me!
What a great video. He is so inspiring young man. Wow. You have my respect. For the negative comments or thumbs down. Remember this. It takes all kinds to make a village. Even the dumb ones. All the best and enjoy the Philippines 😊
Paul and Rob - There's always going to be those types of people who seek to destroy rather than create, and it's not worth the time or effort to give any attention to them or their negative comments. Responding to them in any way empowers them to continue their behavior since you've given them exactly what they look for/want/need, for them to feel happiness by finding faults with anyone that boosts their own morale and attention. They thrive on it. To Rob, it's great to hear you're finding new friends, regardless of their age or gender. It sounds like you've already found someone (your girlfriend) who has shown you that there truly are caring, loving, supportive and understanding people still around in the world, whether it's in The Philippines, or USA, or wherever you choose to set up for your home base. And it's also clear, you have not let your disabilities or 'bad-boy' background decide what YOU want to do, to be happier, healthier, and to enjoy new things that you can experience. I'm sure you'll find others and more new friends closer to your own age who don't even see your disability as a negative, and as another comment posted here said, you are an inspiration! I too, look forward to seeing your art! And Paul - Thank You again for another great video! Stay Healthy, Happy and Safe, and keep on doing what you're doing, Rob!
A great video. This guy is so gutsy. Rob is an inspiration and I must say thank you for this presentation. This. Video also shows so many good things about people in the Phils Marty
How in the world you still have to give bad comment to this guy he is an inspiration a fighter go rob dont mind people who are mean to you this only means that they are loneliest people.... just be happy and enjoy life to the fullest
Very encouraging to hear the young man's testimony, passion, drive, and the will to succeed in life as a sight challenged individual. He gives encouragement to all those who have listened to his life journey and his never ending optism. God bless the woman in his life, she's God send.
Amazing how life can change for this brave young man, it is inspiring to others, God bless him and I hope he enjoys his future and makes a new life that he can enjoy and feel safe in , tremendous guy thanks Paul for sharing this to the world cheers mate
Great video. It is good to hear that Rob is able to grow in the Philippines. I wonder if Rob has told his story to others in the Philippines. He can inspire others that are visually impaired. Go to schools or adult centers. He has a great attitude and outlook on life.
what a great guy. he is an inspiration for everybody out there. if somebody feels like the they carry the world, your situation is nothing compare to this guy. im hoping for his happiness in life.
Hi Paul..once again a informed video….also Baby Mae did a excellent job on her last interview with the 18 year old. Mae asked some hard questions and the young lady was very honest and open to answering.
Rob, you are a very inspiring young man. You have taken some incredible challenges that life has thrown you..and your triumphing. More power to you Rob. I know there are so many people who are wishing you the very best that life can bring. You have given the world something inspiring already. Mate you need to do motivational speaking.....corporations will line up. You have strength, character, humanity, humility...and all the qualities of an inspirational leader. I won't wish you luck, with your character, you don't need it.
I just commented on the first video but man Rob’s story is definitely inspiring! I wish him all the luck in the world and if I make it back to duma I’m gonna definitely check out those paintings!! 😊

So happy to see Rob settling in and it going well. Major relief! He definitely deserves a ton of luck and happiness..Certainly very humbling. Made me stop moaning!
Good for Rob! He's moving forward with his life! He's not sitting stagnant and feeling sorry for what he doesn't have but using what he has and finding joy! Keep up the good videos Paul! "You take care Rob" there are always jealous people that make stupid comments!
wow, you are one brave young man Rob. thanks for sharing your story. Good luck and God Bless you. talk about inspiring .. 😃
Really Paul? Someone gave a thumbs down on part 1 of this video? Maybe they were smoking a little something and got confused with the buttons :) Rob's an incredible young man who was dealt a challenging life and has turned his life around and working to keep it going good. Best wishes Rob and would enjoy seeing your paintings too and even how you paint. Thanks Paul!
Great video Paul ! Congrats to this young man for taking the chance in moving to a foreign country and improving his life. He is a great inspiration !
Thanks alto tim 😊
it is interesting that there are videos from ex-pats which say the opposite regarding health care in the Phillipines...and also about personal safety in the Phillipines...I wish this young man good health and a comfortable life in the Phillipines...i'd be interested to see updates in the future
What a great man and also down to earth guy. I wish you the best. Hope the lady or your gf takes good care of you.
Thanks!
Please make sure Rob gets this money Paul, thank you
I will Patriot, Thank you
Wow thanks alot for that I really appreciate it 😊
@@RobinthePhilippines You are very welcome and you really inspired me. I thank you for that
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 Thank you Paul for passing that on. This story really made me look deep inside myself and realize how good I really have it
Such an amazing young man and a truly amazing story. God bless Rob and Paul.
Thanks Joe
Thanks for listening to my story 😊
Great uplifting story.I know people with crohn's disease and avoiding stress is very important.I wish you the best of luck( Erik from Belgium)
Love his perservation through all of his challenges and how he is still going strong.
Hang tough Rob! Very inspirational story sir. You should be proud of all you’ve overcome. I had part of my colon removed at a young age and that basically turns us into the crohns club. Visually you look a lot like the baseball player Cody Bellinger. Not a bad thing! I think you’re in the right place considering how empathetic Filipinas are
Paul love this guy, he has the biggest balls and Heart in the world
The inspirational story of how this young man overcame his adversity and came out winning! Thank you Paul for this timely video that has truly inspired all your viewers including me!
This young man courage is an inspiration for all of us
Thanks alot 😊
What a great video. He is so inspiring young man. Wow. You have my respect. For the negative comments or thumbs down. Remember this. It takes all kinds to make a village. Even the dumb ones. All the best and enjoy the Philippines 😊
Great video Paul & Rob. Wishing you the best. Hopefully after that year you'll decide to have PH as your home. Very inspiring thank you
Thanks alot jeff😊
Paul and Rob - There's always going to be those types of people who seek to destroy rather than create, and it's not worth the time or effort to give any attention to them or their negative comments. Responding to them in any way empowers them to continue their behavior since you've given them exactly what they look for/want/need, for them to feel happiness by finding faults with anyone that boosts their own morale and attention. They thrive on it. To Rob, it's great to hear you're finding new friends, regardless of their age or gender. It sounds like you've already found someone (your girlfriend) who has shown you that there truly are caring, loving, supportive and understanding people still around in the world, whether it's in The Philippines, or USA, or wherever you choose to set up for your home base. And it's also clear, you have not let your disabilities or 'bad-boy' background decide what YOU want to do, to be happier, healthier, and to enjoy new things that you can experience. I'm sure you'll find others and more new friends closer to your own age who don't even see your disability as a negative, and as another comment posted here said, you are an inspiration! I too, look forward to seeing your art! And Paul - Thank You again for another great video! Stay Healthy, Happy and Safe, and keep on doing what you're doing, Rob!
Thanks alot bob cat and I can't wait to show off my art work 😊
Rob your positive outlook is truly inspirational…..The Philippines is truly a great match for your soul!
Rob you're very inspiring. I think you're doing awesome. God Bless You.

Very encouraging to hear the young man's testimony, passion, drive, and the will to succeed in life as a sight challenged individual. He gives encouragement to all those who have listened to his life journey and his never ending optism. God bless the woman in his life, she's God send.
Thanks for the support 🙂
Amazing how life can change for this brave young man, it is inspiring to others, God bless him and I hope he enjoys his future and makes a new life that he can enjoy and feel safe in , tremendous guy thanks Paul for sharing this to the world cheers mate
Great video. It is good to hear that Rob is able to grow in the Philippines. I wonder if Rob has told his story to others in the Philippines. He can inspire others that are visually impaired. Go to schools or adult centers. He has a great attitude and outlook on life.
Great interview with a nice young man. God bless him.
Thanks Duane
what a great guy. he is an inspiration for everybody out there. if somebody feels like the they carry the world, your situation is nothing compare to this guy. im hoping for his happiness in life.
Thanks alot for the support 🙂
Hi Paul..once again a informed video….also Baby Mae did a excellent job on her last interview with the 18 year old. Mae asked some hard questions and the young lady was very honest and open to answering.
a big salute to the gentleman ( rob).
Good interview! Best wishes to you Rob! I'm glad you found freedom to get out.
Thanks alot martin😊
Rob, you are a very inspiring young man. You have taken some incredible challenges that life has thrown you..and your triumphing. More power to you Rob. I know there are so many people who are wishing you the very best that life can bring. You have given the world something inspiring already. Mate you need to do motivational speaking.....corporations will line up. You have strength, character, humanity, humility...and all the qualities of an inspirational leader. I won't wish you luck, with your character, you don't need it.
Appreciate that Nicholas
Thanks for the support and kind words 😊
Thankyou for sharing your story. Your an incredible young man. I think you should write the book....very seriously. Good luck with the art... ...
This guy is epic. He will do very well, one way or another.
I just commented on the first video but man Rob’s story is definitely inspiring! I wish him all the luck in the world and if I make it back to duma I’m gonna definitely check out those paintings!! 😊

Contemporary Artists represent an expression of a life style that is difficult to compare with historic art movements.
