The Expat Who Became 'Persona Non Grata - Philippines

[@invisiblerevolution]

My NEW favorite.... Philippine *vloggin/information* channel! 👍🏾 Had enough..... of seeing Walking St. footage, had enough of "expat & Filipina" couples channels. Plan on traveling next summer.... *THANK YOU for these informative stories,* and cautionary tails, that we all can learn from! 🙏🏾

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

Awesome! Thank you! welcome aboard. :)

It sll comes down to remembering you are a GUEST in the host country. You may not agree with culture, social attitudes or even the law. High levels of poverty and stray dogs would upset me but it's not my place to interfere. This guy with his actions caused locals to lose face. If you are going to get known do it for the RIGHT REASONS. Like raising money to buy school supplies crash helmets for kids travelling on motorbikes and do it through an official organisation like a charity or barangay. Thanks for the heads up and information.

there are plenty of true items i 'could' cover in video. but if i did, i'd have to start packing. you can't really spend the night at someone's house and begin complaining long before they show you the door.

[@Jesse-B]

That's right, if he made it into a prank to raise money for a school etc, and had the viewers in on the joke, he might just be the most popular foreigner in town.

Never thought of that one. I have been dealing and traveling to Phil for over 20 yrs and have made friends with many people in power but never thought of it as any more then just a frienship. I never thought what the locals might think and that is important because it can cost you your life. I also hate trouble makers especially those that are Boomers..Good vid Reekay

Wha.... he's cured!! it's a MIRACLE !!! That security guard is a saint! 🤣

[@generrandu1643]

That's a very clear and good example explanation, on persona non grata.

[@philippinefandango2859]

I live close to SM Seaside. I have seen quite a few Philippinos walking small dogs inside. Nobody seems to care. Maybe things have changed or it is a different climate. I don't care as long as the dog doesn't try to get in food or is soiling the floor. Most of the dogs have diapers on. That guy was pushing it.

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

yes, i believe the core issue was not the dog in the mall. filipinos at first supported him. the real issue was the fact that he was being deceitful to get what he wanted and had fooled a lot of people in the process. dumaguete citizens took that to heart and made it clear he was no longer welcome in their city.

[@joekahno]

I've seen the same. They actually have a pet store on the top floor and a pet exercise area as part of the sky park.

[@noleenole8254]

What a sad man. Wonder what he was doing that for. Very dark stuff I am sure.

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

before everything hit the fan, he was trying to set up a business, getting paid to train other people's dogs. but that never got off the ground once he ruined his reputation locally. nobody had any reason to trust him.

Enjoying the new format eye candy.😊

Henry and guys I’ll give you a hint my wife is the one interviewed by old dog new tricks Paul McGill,90 day visa Remember at the end of the interview. My wife said well my husbands handsome anyway lol. That was in Dumaguete.

[@Gun_Of_None]

Just wanted to say I’ve really enjoyed these latest videos they are good

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

I appreciate that! i put a lot of work daily into the vids. i hope they are helpful as well as enjoyable.

[@MaxZagar]

I look at this as a test for compliance. The mall should actually take note and learn and improve.

[@Stew357]

Really interesting, ty Reekay!

[@clydesmith3437]

I learned something new today thank you for this video.

[@MaxZagar]

I feel that something is left out here. There are companies paying for testing out the behavior of service staff. Well, its a mystery for me.

[@babyroy864]

Thank u for your education on topics in Philippines in all your videos.hope we meet some day in Dumagete Godbless u always my friend💙🥃🥃

[@nevergiveup-db6fp]

Looks like my wife😀 never give up my friends 😀🌴🌴🍺

[@hermanedwards1981]

I love your AI

[@WayneJensen-d4t]

I don't know what to really say about all of this. But I've heard about a lot less is needed to get kicked out of the Philippines . I mean your probably right. But I've just heard that you can get the boot for a lot of simpler reasons .

[@MaxZagar]

Was there a sign that it is prohibited to have dogs ? Is there a law in the Philippines to allow a service dog into the mall , as it is in principle a thing that a shop keeper could allow for his customers?

[@ZumZum-f2c]

Hello there , any advice on marriage to a Muslim Filipina, What is divorce rules , marriage rules , Do we need permission from embassy to get married?

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

i'm not familiar with the legalities on muslim marriage... however, are you muslim? if not, consider the fact that she is muslim to be your first very big red flag. not being of the same faith is a huge source of problems that never end. would you attend muslim services with her? would you raise any kids in the relationship to be muslim? will you abide by the dietary requirements of the muslim faith? give up alcohol? if you are not muslim, the question should not be, "how... ", but rather "should" you even be with her if the two of you are not following the same belief system.

[@ZumZum-f2c]

@@Lifebeyondthesea yes I'm a Muslim Australian. I liked very much your blogs and have been quite beneficial. I am trying to get into a long term relationship. I have few Muslim Filipino friends who have invited me to come over. but I would like to get to know (through an independent eye) what I'm getting into before I go to see them.

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

there is a very detailed document provided by an attorney in the PH, on what the law requires for a muslim marriage in the PH. you can view it here... chanrobles.com/presidentialdecreeno1083.htm

[@omarsheikh8923]

Bro I am also a Muslim in Canada. What's the best way to find a good Muslim Filipina in the Philippines? How can I contact you, if you are cool with it. JazakumuAllah kheyr

[@secretagent86]

Should deport guys like that

Who is the woman in your thumb nails?

[@michaelorfanos7416]

I just read below and saw your response so I understand now. Great vids!

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

i created her, along with the other models, using AI. sometimes i base them on filipinas i've known during my time here. but AI does tend to glamour-shot them a bit.

[@markmeenaghan934]

@@Lifebeyondthesea I gotta create a couple for my place,lol

[@odysseus1959]

Are the women in your video, are they real ? Does such perfection exist ?

[@Lifebeyondthesea]

the images in the video, i create with AI. often they come out like some of the women i've dated over the years. so... yes! they do exist. i know first-hand from dating women over 11 years that were at 'beauty queen' level (9's and 10's) since 2012. amazingly beautiful women who are approachable for dating with the right guy. what is their idea of the 'right guy'?? a man who is not a cheater. doesn't have vices (smoking, drinking often). patient and not overbearing who can provide for his lifestyle. add some personality and these women are very receptive to a relationship.

[@tryscience]

​@@LifebeyondtheseaI have only one vice... But it's clamped to my workbench 😁🤙

@@Lifebeyondthesea I prefer dogs to humans. This guy might be the same. I can’t see it as a big deal if he bring his well behaved dog to a restaurant. They should be glad he’s spending his money in their establishment imo.
