I've been living in the Philippines, starting in 1983. I bought two lots and built two homes on them. One for me and my Filipina wife and one for my son. I've bought three new cars and I put more than $10,000.00 in savings. Life here is very good! I am so glad I left the US.

[@SelwynClydeAlojipan]

If you make the Philippines your home base, you can travel to other neighboring countries more easily, not just switching from urban to rural or resort life from week to week inside the island nation. Many foreigners have traveled from Manila to Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia, Thailand, India, Middle East, Singapore, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Palau, Guam, etc. Some have settled here permanently while spending a few months a year back in the USA or Europe.

(Edited) buy or pay specially in transportation if you don't have private vehicle.

The only downside for foreigners who wish to live here is the weather conditions. Most of the time it gets very very hot here which will make you sweat a lot if you are not used to it. It also just randomly rains here so always bring an umbrella. But if you manage to get used to all of that and you have a good enough financial background then you can live here. Also, it is very traffic here, especially in dense urban areas like Manila.

[@zhardouz]

Splendid video, just to put things in better context, stated cost of living is ok if you are living in a secondary or provincial city with a modest lifestyle, by western standards. The cost of living will significantly be a bit higher especially for the rent if you go to the primary urban centers like Makati or Cebu. Most of the country is tourist friendly and safe for solo tourist but for those thinking of visiting the Philippines on their own, just do your research very well or have someone who is familiar with the culture and norms as to give you a better guidance and experience on your stay. This will also help you to get better deals and avoid unsure places. Other than that, Philippines is an excellent destination for tourist, gives you a better value for your money.

For the Internet connection, the average here in the Philippines is 150 Mbps for upload and download (including mobile), so that is actually very slow. For the scooter, many people here have it because (1) they can't afford a car, (2) parking here in the Philippines is an issue with the majority of establishments not having a dedicated parking, and (3) to avoid traffic since scooters can bypass most of the traffic by getting in between vehicles.

Just as a suggestion for your first trip here. more than 7000 islands to visit. Metro Manila, which consists of many cities, is huge and congested. Don't come here during the months of April and May, unless you can tolerate more than 100 degrees F heatwave. The only way to get out of the heat is to travel to the provinces with beaches, such as Bataan, Bulacan, or places in Visayas and Mindanao that are close to the sea. Otherwise, stay indoors and run the airconditioning unit full blast. June is when the storm season starts. Yes, there are 2 kitchens in some households, most especially in the province. I am from the island of Leyte, and our houses in Tacloban City and Ormoc City have 2 kitchens, wherein the indoor kitchen is where we do the cooking, and the cleaning of fish, meat and veggies are done at the outdoor kitchen. Sometimes we also do cooking at the outdoor kitchen if it's smokey, like barbecue. Internet speed up and down are better if you are in the metropolitan areas or main cities of each island. Water is indeed cheap. For regular households, the water bill is around $10 - $20, which already covers bathing, laundry, and cleaning for a month. Drinking water delivered free for 5Gal is 50 cents. Main transportation is Jeepney which are modified jeeps from WW2. There are buses, too. But most of the buses are used for longer trips most especially for inter-city travel or going to the distant provinces. You can also hire a car or taxi using the Grab mobile app and book a ride. Foodpanda is a very popular food delivery service in SEA, and it's convenient for most people, most especially with sudden munchies in the early morning. Jollibee is our version of McDonald's. The must-try there, is the Chicken Joy. You also try the Spaghetti. Sweeter instead of the usual tomato taste like the Italian version. Call/text/data for mobile can be loaded with credits. You can apply for a mobile monthly plan, but I think there are requirements in order to qualify. Not sure if citizenship is one of them. If you need to gas up your own ride, there will be attendants at the pump. There are plenty of malls around the country, most especially in the highly urbanized zones. If you need a place to stay at short notice, you can use Airbnb. As long as you keep earning dollars with your job, you can live like a king here.

[@navarropuff187]

Almost forgot. Since you rap, look for Slick and Sly Kane or Mista Blaze. They are our local hiphop artists here who runs their own recording studio. Or you can also get hooked up with other artists like Deadkey, Denial the Ricecracker, and The Franchize, who are the members of the rap group Agaron.

Minimum wage here in Philippines is about $200 a MONTH that's maybe 3 days work in US for minimum wager too. Our cost of living may sounds cheap for most country but in reality if you are living and working in Philippines it is not cheap at all. So imagine, our cost of living is about 3x cheaper in other country but our salary is 10x lower. For most people here, we work just to survive.
