I just stumbled across your channel, i'm planning on doing the same as you but in Thailand I feel so at home there, not like here in the UK. I nearly did it 20 odd years ago but it would have meant selling my house here and going all in, but I knew I would never really feel relaxed without having a place to go back to if things went Pete Tong. Hopefully I will get out there soon, if not then it will have to be the retirement thing, either way I am determined to leave this world wearing shorts and flip flops. @@alan4x

Good on ya. I relocated from the UK to Isabela to be with my filipina wife. I made the conscious, but scary and excited decision to leave a highly paid job (I was a CEO for a global tyre company) at the age of 55. Best decision I ever made! Since July 2023, I have got my 1st year residency visa and started to build our modern Filipino home. Oh, and we bought a 2 hectare farm to grow rice 😊 Waking up with my wife every day and having a stress free life is amazing. Anyone considering coming to the Philippines, please do it if you can. It's an amazing country and the people are so kind, respectful and happy. Cheers, Simon

Simon, i think in the west we chase the wrong things. Covid taught me as a engineer travelling worldwide. I had no money for 2 years but strangely i was happy. Now i work half as much and travel more. Like i say where are the smiling happy faces in the UK not seen them for awhile.

So many dream of changing their lives but for most it remains just that, a dream. Fear of the unknown, thoughts of missing friends and family, financial constraints or whatever. A believable excuse to oneself is far better than none at all. But you, Alan, have taken that leap of faith into the unknown. That is admirable in itself. The UK has, in my opinion, together with most of the western world entered or is entering a period of decay both in a financial and moral sense. I wish you and your filipino lady every happiness and success..

@@radioclash84 Look at his farm, land and laid back lifestyle he now has compared to what he left in the UK! A busy, stressful job where he admitted he never really made any money, until recently, only able to exist and pay bills, that's no life! Stress is the biggest cause of ill health and mental issues here. He's living in paradise compared to the UK. Add to that he will most likely enjoy a much more healthy diet than the fast food / microwave meals he'll be used to here. Plus the cost of living is way lower, sure earnings are lower but with a small holding like that he'll be very self sufficient. He can now do his nechanicing as a 'hobby' and still make good money from it rather tha it being a 'job' where he is under constant pressure. Good luck to him... This country is going down the drain fast. My sis moved out to Australia years ago and enjoys a much better standard of living, has a bigger house, nicer car and is more financially stable, doing exactly the same job as she did in the UK, she travels regularly around the Philippines on her holidays and tells me it is paradise, better than our family holidays in N. Wales growing up anyway....😳😁👍

Don't let the door hit you on the way out. This Christmas I barely had enough tin foil for the Turkey what with demand being so high🙄 I moved to Asia for career reasons 28 years ago and I love it but you won't hear me sh#itting all over where I'm from. I spend a month in Scotland every year and I appreciate a lot of the things we have much more than when I lived there. It's sad so many people seem to think it's necessary to rubbish their own country as part of moving to another and in my experience these types of people who were massively negative at home will end up massively negative in their new adopted home because the issue actually lies with them and moving geographies won't fix that obviously

We only have one chance at this life so make of it what you can and if you have the opportunity, grasp it and make the most of it.

What a surprise. Its good to know that you are in a warm and sunny country while im on the muddy and rainy ground here in Sweden. Your videos saved my MK4 many times, together with my familys budget. Good luck over there, my wife are from Japan, I hope one day to be able to move there.

I happened upon your video about the mk4 mondeo only yesterday as thinking of getting an estate model oral pug 508sw. I subscribed & the very next day you come up in the Philippines. I wish you good health and happiness. I hope all works out well for you. Ps: I was not long into the video on the Mondeo, to realise what a genuinely helpful & honest man you are.

Hi Alan. Great update and glad your happy with your choice to leave. I appreciate it was a big big. Life changing step. I thinks it would be nice to hear from. Tyler. His thought's and reason's for coming with you. I assume a deal was done between the two of you. If Tyler does not get what the country has to offer a teenager's future. A plan is in place for him to move on. This video should be on a mainstream TV documentary channel, For sure. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers. 👍👍

I've been following you for about 2 years now and I really enjoyed watching your videos with Mercedes vito and you was the person who convinced me to buy one. I've been married to Filipina for 10 years now and you will love it there, Phillipino are great people. We've been in the Uk 17 years and still here. Hopefully will make the move some day too. Best of luck Alan.
