philippines

I am on my way to Philippines for one month. I turned 65 in October (I am old) and I promised myself that I would take one good triip, this is it! Oh, I will take other trips but maybe not so far.  Of course, if I really like it I will go back.  It is not expensive to live there so I could do 6 months there and 6 months here. 
 
I think an advantage of being older and having pensions is that we need to enjoy the time.  I cannot stay home and sit. I am envious of people who retire and are happy. What will I do if I retire? 
Stay home? No. I will never sit home. What will I do if I am retire? Play games?
 
I am not so concerned about the money. Next month there will be a pension cheque  and the following months. Not big but I do not need a lot. Each year I will go somewhere for a month or more. I choose inexpensive places. I am very interested in teaching English in Chile. Cecilia is a woman from Chile I met on internet many years ago. She says that there are many opportunities for teaching English there. Spanish is much easier than than Chinese!!
  
I worked with teachers from Philippines when I was China and they are good teachers and nice people. I also worked with two guys who visited philippines and they loved it. I was in Thailand and Korea. Now Philippines.
 
I looked at other places like Panama, Ecuador. But I think when I am healthy I should go farther. I can always go to Panama or Mexico.
 
Anyway, I will take pictures. 
 
See you later!
