Have you ever consider living in the Philippines one day? Or have you dream to travel in the Philippines someday? The Philippines is located in the western Pacific Ocean and it consists of about 7,640 islands. If you want a tropical island life, Philippines will never fail you about that. We are blessed with beautiful sunshine and unique landscapes. We have a world class surfing and diving experience that you would probably never want to missed throughout your life.

A foreigner can live a good life in Philippines and here's the reason why:

The cost of living

If you are somewhere from EU or US, your money can already buy a lot here. Based on the recent exchanges value, one Euro is equivalent to 54.54 Philippine Peso while one US dollar is equivalent to 52.38 Philippine Peso. If you are luckily from UK, 1 Pound Sterling is equivalent to 64.24 Philippine Peso. So in Philippines, a small budget of those mentioned currencies can already buy a lot inside the whole month. Almost all of the products sold here are just the same to the products sold in other countries, the only thing you would feel different is the price. So think about having an unlimited discount when you are living in Philippines. You can even live a luxurious life here if you want.

If your dream is to have the ocean as your playground and dining with your feet in the sand, then Philippines is the best place for you. Some people find peace and calm living in the island. It's the best place to slow down and remove every stressors from your life. In Philippines there are many islands you would find and each of them are amusing in its own way. There are so many you can choose, the most popular and well loved by every tourist are Boracay beach, Siargao and Palawan island.

English is our secondary language

One of the barriers in moving into a different country is the language. Having a language barrier makes it difficult to ask and talk to different people. However in Philippines, you do not have to worry about that. Almost all of the Filipinos can speak in English. The establishments and name of places here are also written in English so you wouldn't be having a hard time understanding a single menu from a local restaurant. So moving in Philippines won't likely cause you to experience miscommunication.

Hospitable environment

If you are travelling to meet friends then you should consider Philippines to your bucket list. We always welcome visitors with a warm greetings. In Philippines, it is not difficult to make friends. So going in Philippines won't totally make you feel alone and lonely. We are always accommodating and we don't want any tourists to become disappointed. So if you will go in Philippines, it is also like you landed in the land of smiles.

So if you're a foreigner and you want to consider living in the Philippines, you wouldn't regret it. If you are from a first world country, you don't have to worry about your daily living because your money can buy a lot and you can pay almost every expenses. Currently, $19k is already equivalent to 1 million pesos here in Philippines, so if you have more than that then you are assured to live a good life you want. Look for a beautiful island, buy a beautiful and sturdy house near to it and enjoy your life while you're living in this world. Some people are planning to live in Maldives but due to its popularity across the world, the living there have become expensive for some tourist but if you want an alternative for your goals, you can consider Philippines and check for El Nido, Palawan or any other resorts island found in Philippines.

In fact, we can designate common living spaces. A few people can agree. Everyone can host others in their own country. Not only for vacation, but also for work. For example, we can work and live in the Philippines for 3-4 months. Then 3-4 months in Turkey. Then elsewhere. What do you think, isn't it fantastic? :)
