I live Sydney Australia and travel around Philippines for up to 2 months a year. I have a lot of relatives and always meet new friends there including my current girlfriend. There is more chance I will choose to live there several months of the year in the future because its so affordable especially compared to Sydney. The price for activities and food here including movies is double the price in the US. What I would spend out on one night for myself I can pay for 10 other to do the same with me there so it always feels crazy how far money goes between countries.
