For me I prefer to be here rather than living in PI. I live here like 32 months now and I still enjoying. Got no pressure being here no friends, neighbour or relatives texting you to borrow money. and I love the weather here compare to PI it's too hot for me. no taxi driver ripped me off. but of course I still love Filipino food but I can cook most of what I want. The most thing that I've learned in this country is to look after your money and now I'm turning into a KURIPOT.
