Hi All, My wife and I, like so many others these days, are actively searching for an offshore (outside the U.S.) retirement location. The tone and activity level of these boards certainly reflect a gentle, helpful community. We look forward to chatting with folks about the relative benefits of living in Dumaguete versus other parts of the Philippines. MM
Coyotes, Yes. Right now we're lookiing at a spring arrival. We have to visit the wife's family in Taipei, so the short flight down is not a big deal. MM
Welcome ONLYME Welcome to the Forum. I it is nice place here. But we do have some grouchy old men around but all in in all it is a wonderful place to get to know. Jimeve thanks for your kind words on the other thread.
Teacher, your welcome, I love the Philippines also I usually visit Dumaguete every winter but the credit crunch stops me this time, maybe next time. Have a prosperous new year. Jim.
Sounds positive Hi Jimeve and Teacher, Thanks for the welcome. Teacher, "grouchy old men" I can deal with. If that's the worst of it in the realm of personalities, Dumaguete must be a genuine candidate for designation as a Shangri-la. :p I've never gotten off the train at Miao Li, but I'm quite familiar with it's location on the line between Taipei and Taichung. MM ---- Green just makes sense.
