Hi,

After more than 8 years living in China, last 5 years in the south west of China, I recently visited the Philippines and what a refreshing change. Have travelled extensively through Asia in that time, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia etc, so might have an answer if someone has a question in relation to those countries.

Seriously considering moving to Dumaguete to live in the future, (Nov/Dec 2008), not too big, not too small being one of the reasons. Also opportunity of getting a long term visa (PRA) there makes life easier. Now back in Australia and feeling like a square peg in a round hole.

Its early days but would be looking at renting 2 or 3 bedroom house on large block, native style is OK. Happy to commit long rental for the right property.

cheers, Dave Finlay
