Why this 44 y/o American loves the Philippines and considers it his top spot to retire🇺🇸🇵🇭

[@reynoschicote]

Age doesn't matter. It is the kindness of his heart. Mabuhay !

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

I love this comment! Mabuhay! ❤️

[@walterty3627]

Not surprised that he's in Dumaguete - the city's Siliman University was founded during the US colonial period in the early 20th century.

[@paulmarks8979]

Bravo to that california guy.

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

💯

[@Zee_1003]

this is not to bash Joe, just an observation. he looks older for his age. thr US probably did it to him so it's a good call coming to the Philippines where food os more fresh, ppl are more friendly and welcoming and everything is generally less stressful and chaotic. you'll be healthier and happier here, Joe.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

I lost a lot of weight... I guess in the face too. I'm 2/3s the man I use to be. 😂

[@ObolonWeener]

That was my obseration as well. Good you mentioned this.

[@aumarigan]

Welcome to the Philippines​@@G.I.JoeKing.

[@rynophiliac]

looks 50-55 for sure

[@iamgabriel5823]

Agree. He is at least ten years older than he states. I'm guessing more like 64 y/o. I wonder if his name is really Joe. If he is from Oakland, CA, he must be the last white guy from there.

[@GOWITEF]

Another pretty interesting moment of sharing. True that the ferry thing can be kind of tricky though. But it is still totally worth travelling around this amazing country.

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

Well, it’s interesting because Joes a great and interesting guy! Btw, congrats on the growth of your channel! The last video you did with the deer in Japan was great!

[@skip2it426-]

Hey mate enjoy it, 🇵🇭 is definitely different than most places on earth. One thing above all they have some if not the most beautiful and adorable women on the planet ! Thanks for sharing ✌🏾

[@spidey6077]

Living in chaotic America Make you old faster because stressful living and politics plus prices and the life style instant food and fast food . Demanding wife is a recipe for going old fast I hope you find stress free life here , Simple living . Friendly welcoming people . Eat more fresh vegetable not frozen ,Fresh fruits not canned , fresh fish , catch of the day. Fresh air from the province . You will see You age slower and grow old happier. Enjoy your stay in the Philippines

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

Spidey, great comment! Thanks and take care!

[@BenjaminBeber]

It's my place to be when i retire. I came from there. I grew up in Negros Oriental. 😮

[@floren879]

Welcome to the Philippines mate👋

[@KekenpaulEstor]

Wow ,He visited a lot of place in Philippines

[@G.I.JoeKing]

I traveled through the central visayas. I went to Tagbularan, Cebu, Leyte, Samar, and Southern Luzon after this interview. I'm close to Manila in Batangas now.

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

It was an absolute pleasure to talk with Joe and I thank him for taking the time to share briefly some of his experiences here in the Philippines. Joe is a very talented guy who acted in the movie “Hotel Refinement”. For those who’d like to watch the movie I have provided a link in the description. A friendly reminder, if you enjoy this video then don’t forget to LIKE, SHARE, COMMENT and SUBSCRIBE! I genuinely look forward to reading everyone’s comments! Thanks!

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

Agree 💯

[@G.I.JoeKing]

Thanks! Right back at you! ❤

[@aidaterran-dx3is]

Hello Joe, it's nice that you are traveling by yourself. I highly suggest that you have someone as a tourist local or someone who can show you around all over Philippines. I am a 36 yrs old woman that would be very happy to be your tour guide. Give a shout out any time, and by the way I actually leave in Dancalan Bobon Northern Samar not very far away from Domaguete.

[@totoybancaso2599]

Puerto galera is in mindoro, a famous tourist spot before boracay became more popular

[@AForeignerAskingQuestions]

Thanks for the info! I have certainly heard of Puerto Galera and now I know it’s in Mindoro!

[@sherwinwilliamsaludares1978]

@@ShockWaveScandals-ji8sf thanks so much for subscribing and for the kind words. I wish you all the best on your potential move to the Philippines!

[@AZ_Bill]

Why would he say that he is 44? Probably 60 or older.

[@achacs1]

Wow! Oakland, California is beautiful.😁😁😁😁

[@illokano]

Right, 44yrs old to

[@iamgabriel5823]

Oakland, CA is not beautiful. Doubt his name is Joe. He is definitely much older than 44 y/o. More like 64.

[@juliuspalamos7863]

Nice Joe

[@DavidPhelan-w3w]

BS he's not 44. He's a healthy 64. He's on the spectrum probably.

[@ericcoyle5184]

Wow ! Joe has more grey hairs then me ! and I'm over 70 ! maybe the stress of his past work, I think he would be an asset in Dumaguete , if he does decide to reside there, watch out for a few vloggers though there in Duma, the'll be baying for your story Joe ! Good video.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

😂 Thanks for the warning. I wore that shirt because I thought I'd be ambush interviewed. 😂

[@junlab2612]

Hey Joe! 😊

[@G.I.JoeKing]

Hey! 😊

[@KoKo-gu3dh]

People who live in the USA looks older than their real age because of the fast paced stress filled life there!

[@methamor5351]

pero pandak ang mga pinoy. ano reason?

[@G.I.JoeKing]

Hey man, I don't know what you are talking about. I only got 30 things to do right now. 😂

[@HIPPA_240]

Joe looks much older than his stated age. If I were to guess, I would think 62.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

I lost a lot of weight, and I guess in the face too

[@shimaosman6520]

He looks 50 plus

[@G.I.JoeKing]

Lolo coming through! 😂

[@janbrezina645]

44 years old? looks like 60

[@haroldsandiego9975]

I believe he’s 44. Just a little bit of gray hair and beard. Check his neck part and forehead, less wrinkles. Most of the white men look much older than their actual age.

[@ronito346]

He's Clooney in Fil gilrs' eyes.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

🤩

[@dsrrellgriffith1161]

Well,,,,its all about the money, for sure its not your looks or intelligence,,,,,just facts and not sugar coating,,,,,

[@Lordismyshepered]

Can't blame him from moving out of Oakland, California. I used to lived about 45 mins away. Oakland has a bad reputation. It's a haven for gangs & drug activities, specially the ghetto side of town. u know what i mean "Thug's.

[@masterroshi8812]

this guy is not 44, maybe 54.

[@luckypennynumber7207]

61 🤔

[@tuting1965]

i dont think hes lying about his age, me im only 51 but looks like Sr. age 😁

[@sfrealestatedealmaker6001]

Some people don’t age as well

[@JustinBeron]

me and my friends just met him at 7-11 HAHAHAHAHAHA

[@ShockWaveScandals-ji8sf]

Dude im 45 and have had grey hairs from 12 yrs old genetics. But I still have alot of Black hair covering it and Nowhere near as much wrinkles...I agree...44? No way! Probably trying to pick up more chicks hehe , I dont blame him, but im gonna need to see some id buddy 😅

[@Zee_1003]

Oakland, beautiful but chaotic. thanks to democratic leadership.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

Beautiful city in a beautiful state with an insane amount of issues that both parties have had difficulties with. I'd leave sooner if I could, but Oakland is home until I can pick up my pension.

[@Leisurwalk]

He is only 44 and has grey hair??? I'm 48, turning 49, but my hair is still black.

[@ThatWasThenThisIsNow-yn1eq]

Mindoro can be gotten to from Batangas. Puerto Galera/Sabang is where he should go. Terminal fees and environmental fees are nothing compared to a few beers in the pub. It looks like he has had a recent haircut for 60P. Hmm, I'm not sure why he is comparing Siquijor to Boracay....totally different islands. Maybe next trip he can go check out the "haunted" island of Siquijor. Supposedly there are ghosts over there.

[@G.I.JoeKing]

No, I went 1 day from Batangas City to Boracay. The ferry between Bulalacao and Malay is what messed me up. I couldn't remember Bulalacao during the interview.

[@mathilde7871]

No way he is 44... He looks more like a vegetarian 60 years old

[@ludymeldulalas4858]

C’mon,He just forget to dye his hair 😆...

Give this guy 1 or 2 years there, and after meeting more and more certain type of Filipino, hi will end up like expat John . Hi will find out sooner or later why hi is like s celebrity there.
