AFP 35: Life In The Philippines

What’s life REALLY like as an expat living in the Philippines?  This is a question we got from a listener a couple of weeks ago and we realized we’d never really gone into depth about what it’s like here.  Did you have visions of us sipping tropical drinks on the beach while we run Flippa auctions and build sites?  Maybe you thought we were huddled in the corner of a Nipa hut, dodging the raindrops from the leaky roof and wolfing down some dog BBQ?

So What is Life in the Philippines Like?

It’s interesting to hear some of the myths and distortions about life here and we thought we’d dispel some of those in the podcast.  It’s a fantastic place, but it definitely has some disadvantages that we’ll cover as well.
