Move to Philippines

In 2006 I first made this site with basically the article Produced below entitled “So you want to move to the Philippines!”

I am web host and Internet marketer with a long association with the Philippines and when I saw an opportunity to promote the excellent ebooks on the Philippines written by my friend Perry Gamsby I decided to create this site.  The main theme of the site was to encourage people, especially men to examine their own motives for wanting to move to the Philippines.

I am aware that the original site became a topic of discussion on a Cebu government message board where someone expressed dismay at the image of the Philippines as destination for sex tourism.  In particular they referred to the image of the bargirls.

I did not intend the site to promote an image of the Philippines as a sex tourism destination or be degrading to Filipina women in any way.

There are only two references to Filipino women in the original site:

The first reference is “Are you excited by availability of so many beautiful Filipinas?” and is presented as one of the common motives men might have for wanting to move to the Philippines.  The site attempts to tell them that the reality is often different than what they imagined.

The second reference is a caption under a picture of bargirls saying “Find Philippine Bar Girls that are not so innocent”.   I have to admit this was an unfortunate choice of phrase that taken out of context does seem to promote sex tourism.  It was only used in the context of a theme of contrasting extremes and meant to be humorous.   In the contrasting image above I used a picture of my wife with the caption “Find Sweet and Beautiful Filipina Ladies” and thus the next caption leant itself to use of the “Find” word not as encouragement to do so but rather pointing to their existence.

The rest of the page only encouraged people to seek more information about the Philippines via the ebooks offered by Perry so that they can make an informed decision about moving to the Philippines and not move there for the wrong reasons.  Below is the original site:

So you want to move to the Philippines!

What is it about the Philippines that attracts you?

Do you have a romantic view of life in a tropical paradise?

Want to Escape the Rat Race for a more relaxed pace of life?

Are you excited by availability of so many beautiful Filipinas?

If you are not moving to the Philippines for work then the above are some of the more common motivations for many wanting to move to the Philippines.

THE PHILIPPINES CAN OFFER ALL OF THE ABOVE!

…but you need to be fully prepared to avoid disappointment

The reality is often different from what you imagined.

You may have already visited many times on holiday, but you will find that living in the Philippines is very different. No amount of visits will fully prepare you for the experience of actually living in the Philippines.

To better prepare yourself and find out more about the reality of living in the Philippines you need to learn about the experiences of others.

There are many free resources on the net that you can find using a Search Engine and common terms such as “Living in the Philippines”.

Some sites you will find seem to view the Philippines through Rose Colored Glasses and omit all the negatives. On one popular site about living in the Philippines the owner, who has been living in the Philippines for many years, will tell you on his page that the language is easy to learn. Yet this guy has not learn it himself in all that time.

In reality learning Filipino is not that easy and it’s also not really necessary anyway. I am actually learning Cebuano properly as I believe there are advantages.

There are also many online forums and groups where you can find others that share your interest in moving to the Philippines, and can share information with you. Learning from expats that have the experience is your best option.

One such expat has committed his extensive experiences to a number of ebooks marketed under Streetwise Philippines. What makes these ebooks invaluable to anyone considering moving to the Philippines is that he tells it exactly as he sees it – the good, the bad and the ugly.

These ebooks will give you invaluable insights and knowledge about what its like to live in the Philippines that will save you both time and money. In fact I would suggest that you will save the small cost of the ebook purchase multiple times and you will look back on the purchase of these ebooks as one of your best investments.
