Be kind to others. Because if you are kind, you have no enemies.

If you decide to come back to explore some more near Valencia, its worth it to drive up to visit Pulangbato Falls. As an American that has been living here for a while, I can understand why some comments being posted depict this area as not being to their liking. That's the beauty of these islands, lots of variety to choose from but its best to visit and figure out for yourself what best suits your individual taste.

I love watching your videos because of who you are in the world, and getting to see how your world responds to you. You set a good example and I enjoy hanging out with you through your videos.

Dumaguete is a great place to start your journey here in the Philippines. There are plenty of home rentals, Western food, banking opportunities and most things a new expat would need. Barangay Daro around Ace Hospital and Piapi around Neva's pizza are safe and generally quiet areas to live. Bacong and Valencia are also options. If you are seeking other expats in your life there are more than enough in Dumaguete. My first 7 years in the country were spent there and I have no regrets. The downside for me is traffic, too many expats and generally the cost of most things is about 20-25% higher compared to say Bais city, Bindoy or Bayawan. But again, a great place to live while you make the adjustment to life here and also figure out what you are truly seeking in retirement.

Hi, I absolutely love the Philippines. Are used to go down to a place called San Fernando or they also call it la union , I used to go fishing there absolutely unbelievable go out in the bunker boat and have a wonderful time catching big barracuda for the locals and Lapu-Lapu which I absolutely love with a bit of rice. Yum Yum Yum anyway keep up the good work. The Filipino women are absolutely fantastic fun to be around.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bl7mRFVx74&t=882">14:42</a> that's another plus of this area.. some city might be called seafood capital or what else.. Dumaguete is also called after it's best product: "The city of gentle people"<br><br>Well, I have to say you didn't really see the whole town, things are more distributed. There are big malls to and also real beach and holiday locations in Dauin, which is maybe the number one diving location in the Philippines. <br>You should have met some other YouTubers who can tell you more, like Justin from critter hunters and so on
