One Million Views Award

I started this blog May 16, 2012, while living in Magalang, Pampanga, Philippines. Since then, I have written over one hundred and twenty-eight articles about life in and traveling to and from the Philippines. 

I am a permanent resident for several years now. I hope you will get information you can use to decide about visiting or living here. Enjoy learning what you need to know to make good decisions! If you have questions, contact me anytime. I will reply ASAP.

Begin with my first article American Expat Living in the Philippines.

As an American expat, who has lived in the Philippines since 2007, it is comforting to know that the Philippines and the USA will be working together to protect all residents. As a Viet vet, who lived and worked in Vietnam for almost a year, I know that most combat is usually outside of areas where most civilians live. I was stationed in the coastal city of Nha Trang. We were permitted to frequent the beautiful beach at select times when we were off duty. We also were allowed to go downtown and visit establishments. We visited historic sites like the 2,000-year-old Ming Dynasty temple near the bridge and the huge Buddha which overlooks Nha Trang.

I now have Filipina wife and three Phil Am children. We live in a house about 2.5 hours SW of Manila. We are all Vegans now. See how we live as Vegans.

So, what am I getting at? If you are residing in the Philippines, let's all stay put and encourage Filipinos to stay strong, live long and prosper.

Where to Live During World War 3

Having lived in the Philippines on and off since 2007 I have become very comfortable with the way of life here. People are friendly. Schools are orderly. Although roads are crowded Filipino drivers seldom respond with road rage and traffic altercations.

While our children are in school on weekdays I spend a lot of time on the Internet. With a website and around 15 Facebook groups I have many inquiries to reply to. Many want to chat about various subjects. 

  

I am a pastor and manage a website named "Church for Christian Vegans" and three Facebook groups by the same name. In a very real sense, I am a missionary for our voiceless animal friends. I share Veganism wherever I go and to whomever I meet. When opportunity presents, I share our website address with people by distributing business cards and leaflets. Anyone may copy and print leaflets found at our website. Hopefully Veganism will gain a strong following in the Philippines. Each member of our groups saves around 365 animals each year by simply leaving them off their plates and not drinking animal by products. Nearly 50 people per week are joining our FB group "Vegan Food and Products for Sale."
