i dont know why i feel very emotional about this content,. ure literally telling us that u relly need company.. im very proud of ur filipino friend who host you to your healing adventure here in our country,. u can consider Philippines as your 2nd home and filipinos will be ur family always...

Literally feel like the second home, good thing Philippines is also not far from Thailand:)

[@earlecruzer2283]

Hi I live in the u.s. but I have a cousin married to a thailander. She lived in Thailand, have family there. She travels back and forth, phil and thai. But she stays in the philippines most of the time now. Because she is the one taking care of their family farm. She may be glad to meet you. She lives in another visayan island, western visayas in kalibo, aklan where boracay is. If you are interested, I may be able to introduce you. Just let me know. She may be delighted to see a thailander in the philippines.

[@TahJetiyamon]

Wow that’s awesome, can you shoot me message on instagram or email ?

[@nicolasrobitaille3259]

The Pilipinos that I know are all smiley people. I don't know what it is with them but they just make your heart feel warm and put you in a good mood! The first time in my life I tried Karaoke, I was so shy, I never sang outside of my shower before. Maybe the reason for that is it was during my first trip to Japan and I ended up at a Karaoke party, being the only guy in a group with 15 girls. I was terrible but I discovered how fun this is and since then Karaoke is one of my favorite party things. My singing is still terrible though!

[@get2riz]

Tah -- I'm late to comment and hoping there is an occasion for your to read this. I like that you are searching for meaning in a place that is loving surrounded by caring people. You can allow your heart to be open and vulnerable. At this point, the only thing that can break your heart is saying goodbye. This means you found your special place.

[@TahJetiyamon]

so true about the goodbye with special place 😢

[@michaelmcknight2305]

I could definitely live in the Philippines and plan to in the near future. The people make you so welcome and everyone is so happy and friendly and willing to help. It's paradise to me and so many beautiful places to visit.

[@moondustgirl2132]

Thank you so much for the kind words :) Economically, we are still a long ways off from other SEA countries like Thailand and Malaysia, and so our infrastructure is not yet at par with theirs. But our economy is continuosly growing (we are one of the fastest growing in SEA), so hopeful for continuous improvements in the quality of life here. But as Tah said, it's "the people that makes places" stand out the most. And we definitely exemplify that based on what i've heard from many foreigners coming over. Salamat!

[@michaelmcknight2305]

[@peterdcar]

This shows the best province life ! Glad u came back to experience the culture more deeply.

[@samthepoet107]

The Philippines definitely has an assortment of languages. About 13% of the population are native Tagalog speakers. Everyone else who speaks it speaks at least one or more other languages. When I was in the Philippines back in 2019 (right before the pandemic struck) I was with three ladies heading to Antipolo from Quezon City where I ordered a Grab car service. Upon entering the taxi the ladies started to speak in their provincial language. That's when the taxi driver started to laugh. He said he's from Pangasinan and speaks their language. And it's unusual to run into people speaking his language. There are many other languages especially in Mindanao other than Visayan language. There are some people who don't speak Tagalog too. Many years ago I and my girlfriend were in Puerto Princesa, Palawan when we needed some directions. We came upon a man whom my girlfriend asked directions in Tagalog, he did not understand. She tried Visayan, her native language. He still did not understand. She ran out of languages so she tried English. He still did not understand. She came over to me laughing telling me "that man does not understand Tagalog, Visayan or English." Turns out the native people in Palawan speak Palawano languages, made up of three distinct languages. So finally she saw a traffic agent she asked him in Tagalog and he was able to give her directions. So where ever you're in the Philippines best bet is to speak to a government official they tend to know Tagalog and English.

[@kevin080592]

Because Tagalog is the language we mostly speak in Metro Manila. The capital of the philippines on where the most important global affairs and businesses takes place..

[@moondustgirl2132]

However, English is an official language here, so many can speak English here (with varying degrees of proficiency depending on the education level the person reached). We are actually the 4th or 5th largest English-speaking country in the world. And so foreigners still find it easier to communicate with locals here compared to other neighboring countries.

[@rubenbarrameda5759]

Yes, definitely, you can live here. Friendship here is being family. Hope everything's well with you.

HI Tah. Great video. To answer your question yes I think you can live in the Philippines. You seem to be fitting in just fine. You will notice some of the words in tagalog and bisaya are the same like the name of foods and some others. I need to start learning more of both languages. I have been in the Philippines now for 7 weeks so just starting the next chapter in my life. Keep smiling and stay safe

I'm a Filipino but I lived in Thailand for 5years and I had a lot of great memories from your country,I even speak your language,not that good , but I can get along well.I found Thai people are close related to filipino likely because of our culture,only language separates us but it's no big deal,we can always speak English.In my opinion or perhaps suggestion,you should find a nice filipino responsible man for you..I believe you'll be compatible to whoever he is because the way I see you,you're so flexible and easy to get along well, and similarly that's how who we are...so set back and ,buckle up and enjoy your ride in Philippines 🇵🇭.

fact 101: filipino language is family of austronesian language, included indonesia and malaysia. however we have lots of spanish loan words due to 333 yrs of spanish colonization. there are many regional languages and im guessing you are in visaya, so they speak visaya. filipino enjoys karaoke in a party or gathering and eating with friends or family. remember if you learn one regional language, you cannot use that in other provinces. tagalog is the only language the local can understand wherever you go to the philippines. the food: dont expect they will be the same in other province. every provinces have their own regional dishes. food: most food in the phil is not spicy. religion: they so devoted in their religion than in spain. safe travelling. try to bring someone or tell someone where are you going for safety.
