MY LFE IN THE PHILIPPINES VOL. 22 MOTORCYCLE KINGDOM

[SlaytanicBrad]

I'll be moving to The Philippines sometime around Nov. - Feb. and I can't wait! My girlfriend is from Manila so I wont be lost or anything once there. I can't wait to experience everything The Philippines has to offer. A lot of people will say it's so bad there but they just don't understand the simple life people live there. Thank you for making these vids. I think I'll do the same once there to help shed some light on the beauty that is The Philippines.

@SlaytanicBrad Thanks for viewing. Manila is the typhoon capital of the Philippines. Watch the news. Glad your coming here. You need to know some things before you leave. Glad to help you. Pop

Ah, you're on the Oriental side. That's why I couldn't recognize anything. My wife's family is on the Occidental side. You're right, motorcycles are EVERYWHERE and up to 5 people at a time will be on one. The seats are made longer to accommodate families. You're also right that there are very few accidents. I've been to Phil 3 times and was amazed at how CRAZY everyone drove but I didn't see any accidents. And no road rage. Thanks for the posts.

Bacolod is not that expensive, I moved here 2 months ago, rent 5500 for 2 br 1 ba, brand new apartment. Over all expenses only about $500 for 2 of us.

@gunkelmvp That's good. We pay less then 4500 PHP for all. Rent, Electric and water. Bacolod is fine. You have everything you need there. Not a quite beautiful place like Canlaon. View "When it's all been said and done".that I posted. All the photos are here where we live. No A/C needed. Our budget is only $750 a month total. No money left to save or get anymore. A cheap budget gives you money for other things. My father told me. "It's not how much money you make. It's what you do with it". Pop

No license to ride a motorcycle there well I am in heaven! Haha best video so far Pop! Love them all! 36more days and ill live there for a few months you get me more excited about visiting :) thanks so much Popz! God bless you!

@joshuatravels2684 WOW ! I guess you'll be crazy when you get here. 24 hour trip. I hope you have a great time. See if you can get a International drivers license before you leave. I got one years ago from AAA club. Don't bring much cash. Money Changers here not good. You can use a debit card at alot of banks. Electronic stuff is more expensive here. Bring a Laptop with a DVD /CD burner it. It's along way back home. lol Manila a tough place. Be careful. Popz

Are you guys ever returning to the US? I once had 7 seven people pile up on a tricycle I hired. Amazing!

[pop65z]

@Maledicto23

Well, we are coming for a visit.soon I hope. Paperwork. You know. Visa is our next step. My wife had no Philippine passport. We should get that by the end of August. I live on SS and I'm retired. Money's hard. I'm trying to make a change in the trip. Like LA, then Las Vegas then Orlando. Hard from here. Travel agent not that good here. I did find Southwest to make a trip like this but, need better connections. I saw a trike in Sagay when we lived there with 10 people. More later

[pop65z]

This is a great place to live. You need to know where you can live cheap and where it's to expensive to live. Big cities like Manlia, Bacolod, Cebu cost alot to live. Here in Canlaon or Sagay is very cheap. Rent is your major factor. Manila 25,000 pesos. Here 3,500 pesos. Big diference. If you want to come to the Philippines I can help you. Lots of things to know before you come 10,000 miles. It's a long trip home. lol Pop
