This is worrying. Does anyone know what happened?
I use Mint Mobile, and as long as I'm on Wi-Fi using Wi-Fi calling, I can make and take calls with no extra charges. So when I go to the Philippines nothing really changes, and it only costs me $15 a month.
If there's a picture of a motorcycle on the back of your UK license, you can ride a motorcycle in the Philippines. I converted my UK license to a Philippine one and got the motorcycle entitlement, because here cc doesn't matter, it's one size fits all. So if you have the 50cc scooter category (with a 30-year full license you must have it!), you can ride anything here.

Normal. Just buy new batteries and swap them in. Either get original Yuasa batteries or Dongjin batteries. I've tried both, and Dongjin has served me well so far. I've had them for 9 months. No sign of capacity dropping yet. AWP is on the cheaper end of UPS brands compared to something like APC, so they skimp on the batteries. Just get better batteries. The rest of the AWP UPS is more or less fine. Just make sure you get the right size and capacity.



Rustan's in Makati has a luxury bedding line. ShoeMart (SM) is much cheaper, but not bad if you pick pure cotton, 600 thread count. I've bought from both, but I prefer Rustan's.
In my experience, the best audiophile stores are in Shangri-La Plaza in Mandaluyong. There's also a small one on the top floor of Power Plant Mall in Makati.
New Yorker here, living in the Philippines for 2.5 years now. I get how you feel about the art and museum side. I actually like Manila quite a bit, though I'm in Leyte right now. But I'm not so sure there'd be drawing classes with nude models in, say, Tennessee.. I'd think you kind of have to go to the cities for that. If you're not a city person, I guess you have to make do with what the provinces offer, whether it's culture, vets or anything else. Life is just full of trade-offs.
I don't get why you'd leave the US if the NFL (a game) matters that much. There's so much more to do in life than sitting in front of a propaganda machine soaking up whatever the world wants you to care about.

WHERE IS THAT
Don't forget MILF means something different in the Philippines.




Interesting post. Just drop the values bit at the end. One-night stand vs. the long haul? Seriously? Petty and patronizing?
Who cares? We're all either on a tourist visa or a retirement/marriage visa
240k for a nice computer??? Dude, that's top-of-the-line pricing. No need for that. Get a rain jacket; you don't need rain protection. Just stay home when it rains and wear the jacket when you're out. The Honda Click is a nice safe choice. There's no need for a big bike except for looks, unless you're doing long trips. Don't buy a car unless you have kids. Don't buy a lot or land unless you're married and plan to spend most of the rest of your life here. Unless you're over 60, just stay the same, sit back, save, and let compound interest do its thing.
Not sure what the barangay can do about this. Talk to your power supplier. Then put in solar if you can afford it. We did. Last month's bill was 176 pesos.
Yogurt, cheese and fresh milk at reasonable prices.
There are several fairly strong typhoons in the Pacific. That could be behind the turbulence.


Mow's and 70's Bistro in Quezon City, and Mang Rudy's and SaGuijo in Makati, are great spots in the Metro.
Brother, live your best life. You only get one, so enjoy it. You don't owe anyone an explanation.
There's no guarantee it stays up. Even with fiber, the local distribution cabinets need power. If they're out, so is your internet. That said, when home internet dies you can almost always connect through a hotspot. I keep a dual-SIM hotspot phone with Globe and Smart for exactly that. Globe has occasionally dropped during a brownout, but I've never had both carriers go down at once.
