Philippines is a nice place to be. This place has one of the most affordable cost of living.. this is also a tropical country where you would love the weather (not the heat though)
Beach all year long!

My hubby and I like Jollibee. At least once a week, we order one burger each plus spaghetti for him and palabok for me. They deliver within 30 minutes and no need to repeat my address everytime coz they had it recorded by phone number. Yes very affordable but the heat seems worse than 10 years ago. Temperatures reaching mid 40’s Celsius is something really new to me.
