    The house we have in Marikina is so much larger than anything we rented in Davao City.
    I love the living space we have and the quite neighbourhood.
    Plus the fact we don't spend P000's on rent and we can do what we want with the living space

    I also like the fact I can walk to Riverbanks Mall in less than 5 mins and SM Marikina in less than 10 mins
    Although I need to report that the pedestrian bridge over the Marikina River is now closed due to high water levels.
    Means I need to take taxi from Riverbanks which costs me P70

    I can take a 15 min jeepney ride to/from our Cubao condo for P7
    Or P20 for air-con UV Express
    Cubao is great with so many huge shopping malls and a super range of restuarants, as well as the the theatres and Araneta Collesium where so many international 'stars' perform.

    We enjoyed life in Davao City for sure and have no regrets (well apart from the costs)
    If the RoE improves enough we may buy a holiday home there.

    We are also just now in the process of setting up another small place close to San Jose City Nueva Ecija where we have family and so many good friends.
    Getting there and back can be done by bus if we want. But basically these longer trips are much better by our own car

    BTW I still didn't use our Montero since end of June.

    I'm looking forward to your next Marikina visit Steve. We'll make a date at Tong Yang for dinner.
    I'll teach you the Jeepney or UV Express
