Two compatible people, cloudy skies, not many tourists, an extremely affordable beach village, a broken google maps (which sometimes can be a blessing), wonderful Filipinos, and great food...well, I'd think you both are WINNING! Dan, thanks to you and Qiang both for describing Puerta Galera. Looks like a hidden gem. Edit: Listen to Qiang! Pizza is for the hands!

[@VagabondAwake]

Well said!

[@williamdarling1227]

Just wanted to say thanks for all the great videos and information, you guys are so fun to watch! Inspiring me to follow in your footsteps soon!

[@VagabondAwake]

Happy to help!

We spent a few days in that area. We stayed mostly away from the tourest areas. Roamed around the town, market and back streets. We tried swimming but the water was too cold in March. This was like four years ago.

[@VagabondAwake]

Sounds like my style. :-)

[@DHarri9977]

A nice overview of this particular area, thanks you guys, a very nice relaxed part of the Philippines.

I am back in Guam working and hoping to retire to Las Piñas in Jan, my military pension is currently $1'180

That's not enough mate 1500 to 2000 a lot better

Im a curious Filipino retiree teaching US history before.30 years working in company what i got a 15k a month in peso about just a fourth of what you received.pension here comes from SSS or social security system.GSIS or government security... when working in national government. In the states am surprised just in the mid 50s transfer to Asia and received that big amount of pension? I may say it is a privilege to be a citizen of the fourth of July republic. Having a pension of 1500 to 2000 dollar here in the Philippines is really big.i can even support the college studies ofmy grandson 😂 hahaha.

[@Neal_only1]

@@titosarmiento8333 yes, and after i retire my daughter their can get 50% in what i am athorized in my SS. Up until she turns 18. I just have to apply for her dual citizenship so she also gets SS card number. If i pass on then she will get 75% of what i am authorized

[@freedomwillring6749]

Beautiful looking place, nice that it's off season and not crowded. Would love to visit one day.

[@VagabondAwake]

You should!

[@tedlasalvia9668]

Another great video Dan! I really like when you provide Cost of Living information as it is very helpful for planning purposes!

[@VagabondAwake]

Glad it was helpful!

[@francismartin2427]

Pizza with the hands!!! You are 100% correct.

[@keithadams2368]

Great job as usual I have definitely made up my mind to leave the US upon retirement making my first visit to Philippines next year and visit other countries after that

[@VagabondAwake]

Sounds like a plan! It has worked for me.

[@pandemicoftheunvaccinated5367]

Exploratory visit a week from tomorrow. Maybe I’ll see you there. I’m starting in Manila

[@VagabondAwake]

You will love it. We just few to Thailand about 3 weeks ago. :-) Maybe next time.

[@shartzs]

Nice location, especially if you like the beach community and very affordable place to retire. Great food selection as well with all the different eateries :)

Thanks 👍

[@emiliec1236]

Wow, so amazing beach white sand in Puerto Galera nice to visit. Enjoy your journey strolling in that beautiful white sand beach. Loaded of people also when in week ends cause people unwind if no work. Thank you for sharing. Take care both.

[@VagabondAwake]

Thank you Emilie C123! Thanks for watching and commenting. :-) Dan Do you have my free eBook yet? That is here: vagabondbuddha.com/fire-your-boss-travel-world/

[@123lonelyhearts]

That depends on your mental attitude. I have lived in the Philippines 24 years. I live in Mania. Have worked and it has not been easy. Bare essential for living. 300 to 400 dollars a month.

[@Nighthawk2211]

This is actually the only "financial report" needed. Not just for PG, but for anywhere. Because there is no "right" answer to how much money is needed.

[@VagabondAwake]

lol.

[@Badger345]

Nice drone shots Dan

[@VegasNegus]

Loved the view, but too small and remote for my tastes. Still these reports Dan are so valuable as they save all your subscribers both time and money! Many thx 🙏 Dan and Qiang 🎉

Thanks Jay!

[@VagabondAwake]

Great idea Master G. Two great and similar spots in the world. It would be a tough choice. I put your request on my Q.

[@MikeSoCal]

Is a license required to operating a scooter in Philippines, Thailand or Vietnam? Thank you again for another very informative video.

[@VagabondAwake]

yes, but some people just tip the police officer if they get caught. but get a license if your health insurance will deny coverage if you don't have one when you get hurt..

[@rontong568]

when u hav medical emrgrncy ur dead living here mininum 5 hrs to manial big hospital

[@frankiefernandez9225]

Yes you Could 👍🏽🇵🇭🏆

[@jonjaso4002]

Hey Dan, I can't remember - do you self-insure? Are you considering a Peso or Dollar Plan? At what point would you think about insurance? Or do you feel comfortable going pay as you go if not? Good stuff...ONWARD!!!

[@VagabondAwake]

I have been mostly self insured over the last 15 years. After paying a few hospital bills outside the USA I have made that decision to self insure for outside the USA.

[@phxmateo]

What happens when the US dollar is no longer the reserve currency and looses value against other currencies. We are at this point, just something to take into consideration.

Sounds like this place. :-)

[@johnmiller7356]

Hello Dan, I have been to Puerto Galera. I enjoy your videos. I just don't understand why you don't include medical in your reports. For example, costs of a dental visit, doctor's visit, average prescription costs. Places like Puerto Galera may not even have certain facilities(ex. MRI,,) so travel to Luzon may be necessary. You always list "alcohol". Whoopee! I rarely drink. Retirement and medical go hand in hand, don't they?

[@VagabondAwake]

Thank you for your constructive criticism John Miller. That is how we get better. And thanks for commenting, Best, Dan

[@lmajc494]

How do you folks keep your STUFF, sage. Stuff meaning computers camera equipment and any other valuables. Obviously you don't carry them all with you all the time. Curious minds want to know

[@VagabondAwake]

Hi RCS, When you show up in a new town anywhere in the world, even the USA or Europe, you are at a disadvantage. I have a report that explains how I stay safe when I arrive in a place I am not familiar with yet. Here is a link to that report: vagabondbuddha.com/how-to-travel-the-world-safely/ Thanks for watching and commenting. It helps our business grow. Dan

[@lmajc494]

@@VagabondAwake thank you. Been watching your channel for awhile now. Heading to Manila then onward next week. Hopefully we cross paths

[@jtp1984]

Healthcare costs & crime are the two major problems when living in places like Philippines! Keep that in mind!

Ad 1200 dollars a month for barjumping in Sabang

[@VagabondAwake]

Some people do.

[@DonDenver-r7v]

I don’t see the link for scooter rental everything is retirement about ebooks?

[@VagabondAwake]

Are you talking short term? Long term buy a used scooter for$500

[@Fredie_c]

How much to buy a scooter?

[@VagabondAwake]

I would go used just to reduce the theft and worry about a new paint job or depreciation. I would pay in the range of $600 to $800 for 3 to 5 years old. Get it checked out by a mechanic though.

[@zowy3603]

Much better places to go. A bit over priced vs other beach / party towns in the Philippines 🧐 IMHO

[@VagabondAwake]

It is a little more expensive depending on the choices you make. But a great choice if you want to be near Manila for shopping and hospitals.

[@durianwalker]

I missed the name of that thin crust pizza😅

[@talkvids]

Are you retired with social security or a pension

[@VagabondAwake]

Great question Talk Vids, I am not collecting social security or pension yet. I have a video explaining how I pay for my travels: vagabondbuddha.com/courses/the-hobby-income-course/ Thanks, Dan

1120 Dollar for one person?

That is for the two of us as described in this video. :-) Your costs would vary based upon lifestyle and needs.
