Ever thought of going away to live on a tropical island? I did, so I left everything and moved to the Philippines! In 2011, I did a lot of thinking about what I wanted to truly do the rest of my life. I've never been a "travel person" up until that point. I'd only been to border towns along northern Mexico for short vacations and visits. But then in California, I met a wonderful Filipina who jump-started my interest in the Philippines. So by 2012, I was on a plane to explore the Philippines, and I've been here ever since. I plan to continue seeing more of Southeast Asia and eventually settle down 'somewhere'. Maybe. :) Follow me on my journey as I share tips for safe travel, the places I visit, and observations on a variety of cultures. I hope you'll find it both entertaining and informative. -- Reekay
