Home or Away

[adam&chryss]

Hello everyone! I am starting this thread HOME or AWAY. I will start with a premise that - Home - Philippines and Away- UK

If you are Filipino/Naturalised British home is Philipppines
If you are Native/British living in the Philippines home is UK

It would be interesting to know where will you spend your retirement, home or away? I dont mean, where do you wish but where will you really retire, be specific Philippines or UK and why? And what could be the age of retirement for you? Others go earlier than the retirable age.

Me and hubby was thinking in PI. In 25-30 years time I guess

I still like Philippines, here if your old you will just wait the heaven in old nursing home waiting for god, while in the philippines (just avoid the noise and humid) stay away from Manila will be fine,have walked every morning in a sorrounded by tress,making fire through the dried leaves and sit on a rope tie on the tress,listen to the chicken tik tilaok, dog running around the backyard,ahhh what a nice life in philippines.

Ok I will be fair, if your retire here in the UK,you had money from govt. sometimes go town by car,used wheel chair or the electric car for old people,going ASDA/TESCO and if your children no longer look for you,they will sent you to nursing home or you will stay all by yourself in your house,cant get out everyday during winter cause you will feel cold,athritis.almoranas will attack during cold (this partly joke) no ants, no coakroaches, no mosquitoes

My choice: Philippines, life was happy down there indeed.

I agree with you September.. I told that to my hubby as well that when we're old it's better if we are in PI. But hopefully not really old. I don't want to die old and ill
