Hello. I am from U.S., retired, married to Filipino. Looking forward to meeting and learning from other expats on this site. Planning on moving to the Phils soon.  :)

Hello  :) New as well.  I am from Vancouver, BC Canada and moving slowly back to the Philippines not retired yet. I am an entrepreneur and a housewife.  Where will you be moving to in the Philippines?

Samal.

We will be living in Samal (Davao Del Norte). Nice too meet you and where will you be living?

I will be in Northern Luzon, in Lingayen, Pangasinan to be exact.  I am moving/transitioning slowly back to the Philippines.  I lived in Vancouver almost all my life but I will not be living in Pangasinan full time.  Only a few months here and there as I have a business in Canada as well.  The homes in Samal are great and the prices are great too. Hope to meet you and your wife in the Philippines soon.  I occasionally travel to Davao to meet some friends.

Thanks for the info and if you get down that way look us up. Maybe we can meet up. There are some nice peaceful resorts there, but don't tell anyone. It's a secret! LOL!

No secrets here  :D ..nice to know that you love to stay in my country.. I am here in Saudi as expat, feel free to ask me anything about Philippines..Enjoy!

Hi I am also from Vancouver now living here in the Philippines and because of my work, i get to travel everywhere; just remember it is fun here in the Philippines but guided with vigilance and cautions in dealing in things such as business and love😆

There are lots of expats in Samal and Davao city. They usually have a weeknight beer socialization atleast once a week in a pub owned by expat and filipino couples.
