A Flemish Belgian thinking about retiring

Hello everyone, just discovered this nice town today, did a search, and came to this forum. I have a good contact with a nice lady from Dipolog, and was thinking about retiring in Cebu. Somebody on another forum made me aware of Dumaguete, and it seems like the best of both worlds.
So chances are that this could be the place I finally will choose as my new home. Close enough to both Dipolog and Cebu, and from what I've seen on photos really nice to live in. At the moment I still live in Flanders (Belgium), and will need maybe a few years to get my things here arranged, but I am seriously thinking about moving to the Philippines.
So if anybody (especially Belgians) living there, can provide me with some good advice, please feel free.
Reagrds,
Noel

 

Hi there Noel, and welcome to the forum. Before we bought a piece of land in Dumaguete with a panoramic view,and just fell in love with the city, my husband and I planned to retire in Cebu. I am from Dipolog City too and I wish to know your lovely lady from there. As we think of it now, we made the right decision in buying a property in Dumaguete. Good luck on your search.

 

Time is passing and soon I will enjoy a icecold beer with this friendly people and at this nice place. Yhaaaaaaaaa.

 

Girlfriend from Dipolog

Hi Chrissar, thanks for the reply. Sorry for the late answer (only read your message today). Now, who knows you may know my grilfriend personally? If you would be interested to kow who she is, you can mail me directly at verl@yucom.be

 

Ha, what a nice house. Lucky you. Did the price you mentioned also include the land?

But I am here to introduce myself. I am an Australian of Dutch origin married to a Filipina who is presently also an Australian citizen.

I am now living in Cebu (my wife's place of origin) but she and I agree that Dumaguete could be a better place to live. However that is not on the cards (yet). My wife has a well paid job as a registered nurse in Australia and does not feel inclined to exchange that for a nursing job here. She would not only be paid peanuts then but she would also have to put up with the hierarchical relations in a Filipino hospital.

So I am going to return to Australia after an interval of about 18 months here to arrange for a visa for our adopted son.

Nevertheless I have an abiding interest in Dumaguete.

Adriaan,
Good to see you on our DI forum as well. You won't realize it but we know each other. You even have been here at my place in Maluay with your wife.(I'm Johndive fron the PH-Forum).
Polowonder, welcome as well.
I'm not a Belgian, but NEARLY :D
We only play soccer a bit better but we speak the same language.
Yes, there are quite a few Belgians (even from Flandria !) here around Dumaguete.
I know 4, but there are surely more.
Hope to have a drink with you soon

Adriaan, that nice house is restaurant Coco Amigo at the boulevard and its crue !!
