LIVING WITH MY FILIPINA WIFE'S FAMILY in the PHILIPPINES PROVINCE | Jay's Philippines
Experience life in the Philippine province through my eyes, as I take you on a journey the day after Christmas. Far from the comforts and routines of my countryside home in America, this day was filled with unexpected connections, local traditions, and a deeper appreciation for the simplicity of provincial life.
In this video, I explore what it’s like to live in the Philippines as an expat, sharing moments like meeting a fellow foreigner, playing basketball with local kids, and reflecting on how different-but beautiful-life is here.
If you’re a foreigner or expat considering a move to the Philippines, or a Filipino curious about how others view your homeland, this video offers a glimpse of life in the provinces, where every day feels like an adventure.
🌴 Could I get used to this life? Watch to find out!

I hate the dogs poop on the street, The inconsiderate neighbors using karaoke and the neighbors who dish like me even I didn’t do anything wrong 🤣In Wisconsin all my neighbors liked me . they don’t have tough law here unlike in the US . There is also good things living in the Philippines. This is just my opinion.

    As a parent it’s normal to worry about all those things you worry about for your kid and family. All we could do is guide them and give them all the tools they need to live. Maybe send her to karate classes so she can protect herself. My eldest is 10 & will be getting her black belt soon and she started at 5 yrs old.. Just tools for survival if your worried.. girls can do the same activities boys can. TFS your thoughts 👍
