![[Full Episode] MasterChef Junior Thailand มาสเตอร์เชฟ จูเนียร์ ประเทศไทย Season 3 Episode 9](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Jsjwpd_ER8g/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm a Filipina nurse here in the UK and I'm moving back to Philippines too. I've had enough of too much entitlement, exaggerated political correctness and ridiculous extreme feminism. I'm a woman who is capable of doing womanly things and I need a man to do manly things for me. End of. That's why I'm dragging my husband to Philippines where there is a tiny bit of hope.
Good for you Diana
Good video, thanks for sharing and thank you Karen for not being a "karen" Lol! Thank you Paul for having her on, God bless 🙏!
@@ouibaril58 thank you!! This is Karen and I’m glad you enjoyed the video! God bless you
Yes, good for you Diana and your husband. I'm English, but, had the good fortune to work abroad for many years and now back home.
Sadly the country is definitely taking a turn for the worst. Thank you for your service in the NHS and good luck for the future.
I too left los angeles and came to the Philippines. It's getting so dangerous. I was always worried at night going to my car I'd be the next story on good morning America.
I’m also a Filipina, retired from the healthcare industry in the USA after working 36 years. And settled down in Iloilo in December 2022. It was the best decision I made. I felt a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders, and stress has disappeared. I’m 57 years old and now doing things I was unable to do on a regular basis because I was a slave to my work. I didn’t just thought about it overnight. It was a year in planning on my part. I’ve set a budget for myself here in the Philippines, until I can get my pension at 62 years old. And folks, it is possible….. I’m now happy, I keep myself active physically, and I’m meeting new friends.
Good for you!
Happy for you!!!
I am happy for you. Many in the healthcare field will understand you saying you were a slave to work.
How’s the healthcare system in the Philippines?
@@mindymoresrosero opposite of what you’re used to in the USA
My doctor here in Arizona is a Filipino..I really like him because he listens and is concerned about my health. I'm older now and have a few issues. I'm glad I found him and he was recommended by one of my specialist here.
Great interview! As an American woman who is thinking about getting out of the crazy USA to retire I like watching videos about life in other countries. Phillipines sounds pretty great but usually it's all geared towards guys. So I love this.
You said it, like I was thinking it! 👍🏻
But she's not doing it alone. She has a Filipino husband and they are young. Although, I do appreciate Paul's effort, its not really helpful for single women wanting to retire there alone. I can't find any women TH-camrs for this content.
I’m Filipino who has migrated here in the US when I was 18. Have worked as a RN for 36 years and preparing to retire back in my home town of Naga City in the Bicol region of southern Luzon. I enjoyed watching all your videos due to your Interesting topics and non-biased interviews. I appreciate your warm acceptance of the Filipino people and our culture. Keep up the good work, your presence in the Philippines is more than welcomed by our people.
Susan L
Oh wow!
My mother works in NYC as an NP. She has units predominantly Filipino, who always move back home after retirement. Some own hotels or a lot of land and are living the good life😊
My husband ( also Paul) is a great fan of your channel, we have talked about spending time overseas when we retire, escaping the South Australian winter every year, or even moving to a place like the Philippines and experiencing a different lifestyle, Australia like America is a very different place than it was pre - covid, there is so much division and hatred against anyone that does not agree with the views of the Woke brigade. I have searched all over looking for women's perspectives of what it is like for Western women. Men seem to love it but I couldn't find a lot from a women's point of view. Great to hear from Karen, she is a lovely person and has a great take on life. Thanks for interviewing her I really enjoyed it and she has put my mind at ease.
Karen is very positive and full of love. This is a refreshing interview, Paul.
I wonder if Paul can invite a Western Karen for an interview like this?
A stare to a foreigner, usually is admiration, not discrimination. You are WELCOME IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Really good interview. I moved back to America in 21 because of Covid/Visa issues and it is crazy. I was in Southeast Asia for five years and I cannot wait to get back for mainly my mental health and I found my physical health got much better as well living in Thailand, I’m choosing the Philippines, because the Visa is easier and the language barrier is not as difficult.
Yes, it's really sad what's happening here in the US. Instead of focusing on governing, one party is engaging in endless culture wars to rile up the crazies.
Go backpacking other places too. Asia is huge
My husband and I lived Thailand for 3 years when my husband was working for IBM. I loved Thailand with the exception of too much prostitutes everywhere. Not a great place to race kids. Yes, it's true. Communication is hard in Thailand.
Similar here, I was in Thailand for 4,,,, return to USA for Covid and my mental and physical health is declining ,,,, all I think about is Asia
I have to say, I was smiling all throughout this video. What a smooth interview. Karen is a breath of fresh air with her demeanor and calmness in the face of the topics you guys touched on. I am recommending this to anyone considering the Philippines as a retirement destination. Thanks Paul!
Thank you so much! I’m so blessed by your encouraging comment! God bless you. 😊
Paul, without question, this has to be one of your best recordings ever, I was hanging on the edge of my chair waiting to hear Karen's next words. What an outstanding woman Karen is, her ability to clearly articulate the important things with such clarity & her humanity & her beliefs is truly inspirational. Please bring her back for more.
Thank you so very much JPN for such kind words! I praise the Lord that you watched this interview! I am who I am today because of my faith in Jesus. God bless you!
What's more refreshing was that this lady is a pleasant Karen, not the type that is obnoxious, loud, combative and self-righteous. LOL
@@karenmarie296 Thank you Karen for your inspirational insights & may the Lord continue to bless you & your husband for your wonderful & dedicated Missionary work there in the Phillipines.
@@karenmarie296Hello Karen, I just watched this video. Can you tell me if the Covd jab was mandated in the Philippines. I am not and dont want to be, for health reasons. I would like to live there. Thank you.
Finally someone addressed the subject of female expats in the Philippines, Paul you really should try to interview more women expats to see how they adjust to the different culture. We might be surprised of the answers compared to the mens perspective and i imagine there are married expat couples that also made their decision to move to the Philippines and are going through an adjustment period. Great and refreshing interview Paul looking forward to seeing more on the subject.
I will try to do more
I'm american of filipino ethnicity living in the USA for almost 40 yrs now, and had planned on retiring back in the Philippines in few more years. I visit Manila every year and enjoy it a lot, and cannot wait for the time to move permanently. USA is not the same anymore. Racists people are now out in the open and feel empowered.
@@alucardcount9478 Shut up!
if I had a dollar for every time I heard someone say we are living in the end times I would be wealthy beyond measure. This message has been sent cents the first settlers came to America. Everyone wants to think we are living in the end times, and so far everyone has been wrong. I am also a Christian but I also like facts
Yup, I had a good friend who didn't think he should bother finishing high school (40 yrs ago) since our pastor convinced him we would be called away at any minute. Not sure what he did as we never talked about it again.
End times began when Jesus ascended back to heaven after his ressurection. Why has he not come yet? The Bible said in 2 Peter 3:8-9 that God is being patient with us for He does not anyone to perish and giving us chance to come to repentance.
yup. things have been waaaaay worse in the past than they are right now. Things are still relatively good, and yes they will probably get worse, but still. "All this has happened before, all this will happen again"
Hi Paul really appreciate your video content here, I live in the UK being a British National being married to a filipino for the last 31 years. Just returned from a short trip to the Philippines and notice how warm, friendly and courteous people are there. This interview with Karen was so interesting especially when she was talking about we are living in end times. Just hoping you can her back sometime in the future.......God Bless
Karen seems like a light, like a very genuine, righteous woman. I just turned 50 last month and I've been thinking of coming home to my province the Philippines, too, maybe not full-time, but for a good amount each year. Thanks for featuring a female expat; we need to hear more of the female voice of experience too.
Paul, this is one of your top interviews. Karen is a beautiful person. Bless you both and your families.
I really appreciate that! thanks a lot for watching the video.
I see so many videos for the retired men but not so much for women. So glad to have stumbled across this one and hopefully can find more of them. Thank you 😊
She is Rare!! Can you please have another informative interview with her ..and with her Pinoy husband!?❤❤❤❤..Women Expats in the Philippines are a fresh new world!
I am Filipina. I was born and raised in the Philippines. Back in 2000, I decided to acquire a US citizenship because renewing my green card every year was getting expensive. Almost everyone from my parents' side of the family were in the states. My intention was to go back to the Philippines after that, but then I met and fell in love with my husband, and decided to stay longer in San Francisco, CA. Then in 2007, just before the housing crisis, I lost my job while I was pregnant. New horrible tenants moved in from above our apartment. Because I felt isolated, I developed post-partum depression. We saw our savings getting slowly depleted. Despite our dire state, we considered this as a blessing in disguise, because it was what made my husband and me decide to move to the Philippines in 2008. My parents, who both are here in the Philippines and very supportive of our decision, gave me the keys to the family business. And we now consider the Philippines as home.
I acknowledge that the US is a great country. But with what's happening there now, things are becoming ridiculous and insane, especially in California. There's lawlessness and dangerous ideologies that can affect the lives of both adults and children. When I watched youtube videos about the dire situation in SF, I was in disbelief, and thought that this was some sort of propaganda to discredit the city which I used to live in and loved. But family and friends back there confirmed this was true, which is sad. We'd like to visit, but we will have to wait until things get better there.
Karen, Karen, Karen; you're every word hit me personally. I just came to the Philippines last week. I'm a soon to be 50 year old man. I'm a black man that grew up within a inner city but I've lived a full life; a shadowed tale of rags to riches. I'll for sure be spending my 50th birthday right here. I couldn't find peace anywhere in the U.S. I'm from a rather once preserved area called Grand Rapids, Michigan and being in tune with the city I grew up in, I sensed nothing but an uprising of danger and unrest. Thank you for your Words of hope, redemption and clarity. The U.S. is changing faster than most might wanna admit. I Thank God my children have all graduated.
Thanks so much Max!! Welcome to the Philippines!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video! God bless you and we hope to meet you someday!
Are we invited to your party?
Can you cook 👩🍳 kuragsoy adobo 😂😂😂 in the party 🎉 masarap.
@@mypinaylife Of Course, 😃
Would love to meet you.
I'll say one thing -- she has a million-dollar smile. What I'd give for her teeth. But there's a soul in there that is very serene, and so it's reflected in what we see here. A white woman in the PI is analogous to a fish out of water, but she fits into the culture there because she's also nice and friendly and loving and knows who's in charge, and to that extent she fits right in.
YOUR ALL SUCH A WONDERFUL PEOPLE. FILIPINOS LOVE AND ALWAYS WELCOME U TO OUR COUNTRY.
What a great interview Paul, and what a marvellous and graceful lady Karen is. I wouldn’t ordinarily take much notice of Bible readings but was glued to Karen’s wonderful way of putting things across.
Definitely a video that promotes there’s so much more to Asian way of life than the usual stereotype.
Thank you 👍
Thank you so much sir! I’m so blessed by your encouraging comment. 😊
Hi from Australia. I lived through one of the longest and harshest COVID lockdowns ever in our state of Victoria. I could go on and on. We are back to normal now although COVID remains in Aussie in pockets. I caught a plane this week and wore a mask. It hasn't been forgotten and left painful reminders and affected us from the consequences of our movement being restricted; it was hard to make my body move normal again after months of sitting around, getting tired,, eating less healthy meals and seeing business forced to close forever. We will never forget. I disagree about the end of the world thing; our world has been battered by disease, disruption, mass immigrations throughout history.
True, but we didn't have nuclear weapons until now. ✌
Hi, Paul. I frequently watch your vlog. I'm a Filipina living here in the U.S. for 5 years now. Someday, I'll return to the Philippines, God willing. I was surprised when Karen mentioned about MV Doulos, I can't believe my ears. I was on that ship for 2 years. We went to Port Elizabeth then to Cape Town because the ship had a major electrical rewiring at the time. I'm really happy that she was able to articulate what she shared about the end times. I hope & pray that the people who watch(ed) this video will come to the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. God bless you & May.
You hit this one out of the park, Paul. Karen is a lovely woman, both inside and out. So glad she agreed to come on your channel and give her perspective. God's blessings to her and her family.
I believe this is my second comment on your channel Paul but to me it’s so important.
I absolutely love your channel it’s honest you keep it so real with no disrespect ever for anyone or any topic.
All your videos are so good with so much information but this one was a much needed video and totally worth watching.
Keep up the great work by keeping us all informed.
Wow, An intelligent, well spoken Karen. I have much respect for this woman. I will need to change my focus and start looking for a missionary that has the same outlook on the future as i do. I like how she thinks and her devotion to her calling. 😇
If you’re interested in a friendly, family orientated, affordable society the Philippines should be on your radar no matter gender, race, single or family.
Hi Paul I’ve just started watching all your videos and it cemented my decision to retire in the Philippines next year.I’m also a Filipina with an American husband.Been a nurse in the US for 40 years feeling burned out with the job and life in the states. The stress of work and rat race started to affect my peace of mind and well being.The US is not for young people.Your videos are very informative,inspiring and you help people by telling them the real deal.I really love this video and the content. I live in the same island that you reside but on the occidental part. The Philippines is not for everybody but it’s just perfect for me . Thank you and continue doing what you do.
Great video interview Paul and great encouragement to other Western women!
I just returned from my 2 week vacation in Thailand where I spent my time with my Thai girlfriend and let me tell you that it was the most wonderful experience!
We started our online relationship about 7 months ago and finally together face to face. She is everything I had wanted from a woman but for all of you guys thinking every online relationship will lead to a successful meeting, compatibility, and chemistry, that will never be the case.
We had honest, sincere, warm, and affectionate feelings for each other during our online video chats, texting, and messaging and it transformed when we were together.
I will make my next trip out 6 months from now to be with her and see how my 2nd round turns out. I will probably spend more time with her but eventually our goal would be for her to move to my home in the future. Good luck to all!
I'am a man who saw your TH-cam Video and I happen to be married to a Filipina. We have been married now for over 26 years and I actually live in Manila for 2.5 years after getting married to my wife . We are here in the States but are in the process of moving back. We are both Christians, she is Catholic and I have been of the None Denominational kind not really stay with any particular Denomination. I like the way your guest talks about " The End of times and the last Days ". My wife and I don't really dwell on it but I myself have had a lot of teaching in that area and on Faith. I'am not a teacher of it, I will however from time to time just let out with something. There have been many signs I too have seen but I have to keep reminding myself that this is only 1 of many signs and they will eventually all add up but there is still a ways to go mainly because the Church is still here and there has not been the monetary collaps that was predicted but it will come eventually, When, only God can answer that. But the awareness and alertness neeeds to be made known. I really appreciate your interview. I hope and pray that many get to see and hear it !!!!
I am a 52 year old christian female trying to figure out which country I want to move to. Im so excited to finally see a video like this. The Philippines is a strong possibility for me in the next 24 months.
Paul, Thank you so much for having Karen on here so we can have a female point of view on living in the Philippines. LOVE FROM IOWA! 😊❤❤❤
Paul. That was awesome. This is the most important video you have ever put out. I would even estimate that this will be in the top 3 of your most watched videos. It was so great to start out the conversation with an American woman living permanently in the Philippines. Every example that Karen touched on is exactly how I feel and what I struggle or go through with in the state of America.
We've been planning our move for a good while. Less than 3 months, me, my Filipina wife and daughter will be moving from South Carolina and living in Bacolod City permanently. I hope to make it your way one day soon and hang out. Thanks again for the topics you talked about.
Wow. Now she got Filipino accent as well. Retiring in the Philippines is actually not bad depending on which location. The best is the province life where you can enjoy beautiful beaches and just chill. By the way when she said she standout when mixing with Filipino community, its not in a bad way and something to be ashamed of. In fact Filipinos got high regards for women who married Filipinos staying in the Philippines.
Hey she sounds like my next door neighbor. Same accent. Just saying. Perhaps an Arizona accent. ✌️
I don’t hear a Filipino accent. And I grew up hearing a lot of Filipinos speaking English with an accent.
Wonderful interview , very interesting . I visited the Philippines with my Australian wife and kids for 3 months in 1989 and again , 90, 91 , . I live here in Palawan now and have seen many changes over the years here and in Australia . . I'm so sure what you are saying are true , good luck
An American living in Palawan here too
The old dog is finally talking about god! I was wondering when that would happen. Karen is very affable and appears to be a wonderful servant of God!
Indeed
Thank you Paul and Karen I love this interview I am a missionary also I have been watching you for almost 3 years and this is one of the most encouraging I lived in the Philippines for just short of four years in the 80s and early 90s we have made at least four trips back to the Philippines I love the Philippines my Filipino wife always wanted to “ Mary a foreigner” maybe at some point I will explain why I pointed that out it has been a blessing she’s a hard worker and our family is growing but I miss The Philippines
Paul, that was such a beautiful interview and I want to thank you for bringing us that. It was so encouraging as you always are, and Karen was brilliant and so lovely.
Im not a fan of watching vlog interviews but im gonna praise you for giving her amazing questions straight to the point and mature conversations goodluck to your channel more power!
Veryg imformative, Karen's charm and smiling face seems that she's very happy staying in the Philippines. This interview must be extended for sure theres a lot of karen experience she could be able to share. Always choose peaceful simple life we dont need to be working our whole life. Life is short.
Paul im Proud of you for openly professing your Christian beliefs i too and a believer and so many people are scared to speak up for fear of retribution. Thank you for having this nice Christian lady on your vlog. What a pleasant lady.
I must say Paul, this is by far my favorite video that you have done and it was great to hear Karens point of view and I believe she is spot on with a lot of what she says and what is going on in the world today. I retired from the military after 22 years and moved here last year to escape the crazyness that is happening in our country.
Racism was so rare here in the Philippines and we always believe all human being was equally same whether you are black or white .
i haven't been to church in a long time and people like her is what makes me miss going there on sundays.
Such a lovely young lady, I wish her and her husband a long and happy life together.
And best of luck to you old dog , so happy for you and Mai
One of the best interviews I have saw in a while! As a fellow Christian I enjoyed this immensely! Thanks Paul and Karen for sharing ❤️
Really great to see Karen and to hear some of her story as a female American caucasian. Keep having FUN!
Hey Paul This is by far the best video post you have done by far...
Would love to hear from Karen again and hear what else she has for us.
Cheers Greg from Australia
she is pretty with a great smile
Truly the first few months will be a shock in the Philippines as a westerner. It will take at least a year to get adjusted to the Philippines specially with the heat, litters all over the place, houses looking dilapidated, too many people, traffic but after a year, you will find that life is nice in the Philippines with people laid back, not always rushing. People easily laugh and smile. You can just walk around if you have a good neighborhood. Most important is you are not always thinking of bills/mails everyday and that something you missed that you will get in trouble with uncle Sam.
Your very EDUCATED i bet and well travelled.
Bingo !!!
@@jayvirtusio1081 yep philipinos watching your back.
@@alucardcount9478 Traffic, and the pollution and stress it brings, is the bane of my existence.
@@fendermon There are places in the Philippines that don't have much traffic and pollution.
Thanks for the interesting and refreshing vlog with someone with true Christian testimony, servant attitude and obvious biblical knowledge. While many vloggers offer helpful tips & info, she showed how Christians with the Bible can go deeper...in understanding universal human nature and how to face, handle, and overcome difficulties or problems one may face. Great interview...👍🙏❣️
Amen!
Paul I’m glad you have her in your show. I’m glad she is a Christian and I like that you know the Lord. It’s something we need to spread. Indeed! It is the end times.
I admire her for being a devout Christian. Praise our Lord GOD. Amen.
Paul, yesterday I returned from Subic Bay, Philippines. Saw my old stomping grounds.I had a wonderful time. I first arrived in the Philippines in February 1977 with the U.S. Marines. I’m a old dog like you. I always enjoy in the Philippines. Past February my family (Japanese wife) & I went back to my home states of Texas. Everything in Texas so friendly. I saw nothing bad or wrong about Texas. I guess Texas & the Philippines are the most friendly places in the world. Currently living in Japan. Great channel. I love all your videos.
WOW!! that was a great interview with Karen. It was a pleasant reminder of things to come and keep a keen eye out at all the changes we are seeing . This was truly a great interview. Thank you Paul and Karen. 👍
Thank you to Karen first for truly doing God's work and secondly for this interview. Tons of info from male expats but this is the first I've seen offering a western woman's take on life in the PI. I am interested in possibly moving to, or spending winters in the islands but that would mean taking my family with me including my elderly mom. So this is a huge issue I need to explore and resolve as to if this is even something I should entertain further.
I also have a somewhat disabled brother and the family dog to consider. In fact my mom and brother are the primary reason I'm looking for some place warm and sunny to spend our winters when I retire. So I appreciate any feedback anyone might have for us. Can we even being a dog with us?
Great interview Paul! Karen seems like a sweet person and secure in her faith in Jesus. I agree with you that all these difficult or "bad" signs around the world actually give me great hope for what our Lord has in store for our future. His coming is called "the blessed hope" in the Bible. Hopefully believers will see the signs and seasons and we will be more motivated to share the love of Jesus with a world that desperately needs Him. Every day counts.
Amen Rob!! Yes our blessed hope the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ!! Titus 2:13 So glad you enjoyed the video. God bless you!
She's full of positivity👍👍👍👍👍
Indeed she is
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 she's d real epitome of a practising Christian. Action speaks louder than words.
I don’t have words in addition to the thoughtful and articulate comments posted. May God’s blessings continue to befall you, Karen and the thoughtful Patrons who wrote elegantly to this edifying video. ❤️ ✝️👊🏼
I'm working on renovating 2 homes that I'll be turning into Airbnbs so I have the income to live in the Philippines full time. Her talk of the news about the US is definitely a driver for me to continue pushing forward with that plan. I don't watch the news here anymore since I live pretty deep in the country, but the negativity of what's on the news is definitely starting to bleed out to the countryside. Great interview as always Paul, and we appreciate her taking the time to be interviewed 👍👍
@@alucardcount9478 You do of course! 😁👍👍
@@WhenTheManComesAround I found it interesting. I don't even watch our local/ Detroit news as it is mostly just a list of who shot who. Where will your rentals be? and how would you manage them if you live in the PH if they are in the US? Thanks, and good luck.
God Bless her, and Thank you Paul for bringing her on your vlog, she lights up my day.
My pleasure
That was a damn good interview Paul! she is very intelligent and a lot of her answers were right on the money and I like her open mind on different views. Great job!!
Paul. Can I put words in your mouth? "Life without faith Is dead.". A Filipina will stop by every holy place to pray. That used to upset me. Then I was asked "why do you live?". "Cuz..." I responded. Then she said " I pray cuz Ang kinabuhi nga walay pagtuo patay.". Salamat Paul. You Always keep It real.
Wow... I was born in the Philippines and immigrated to the US in my early teens. I'm in the US Foreign Service currently posted in South Africa. Although eligible to retire now, I'm staying a few more years enjoying South Africa. I will be in the Philippines this year for at least 6 weeks, so I am hoping to meet you all when I visit Valencia, Dumaguete. Great vidoe... thanks Paul. My best for us all....
I wish you all the best. Thanks a lot for watching the video.
I read through the comments and kinda feel bewildered on how everyone is commenting on how positive this video was. End times, America sucks, ex..... not that positive.
We are by far living in most prosperous, comfortable, educated times in the history of humankind. I'd like to think that our best days are ahead of us and not count on books of magic and fairy tales that speak of doom, and yes, the Bible, to me, falls into that category.
If some say we are living in the end times - I dont see any hard evidence that will happen, but it is true the world is changing fast and face new challenges.
This happens every several years. It definitely gets old after the first four or five false predictions. Yes there is a lot of turmoil in the world, just as there was a hundred years ago with two World wars. Technology brings with it the culture wars, in the US at least and it's annoying the politicians don't just focus on doing their jobs.
Agreed
God bless you Miss Karen. You and your husband made the right choice. I live in the vicinity of New York City and more crimes are committed every day in the city. It used to be safe walking around at 2 am in the city streets. In the present situation, the city can be “at the wrong place at the wrong time. God bless you and have lots of fun.
Congratulations to you Paul and Baby Mae. Cheers
Congratulations Paul that was one of your best ever thank you to Karen and you for a great show..
Paul, one of your best interviews. We'll done. I'd like to be in the Philippines when the end of days comes. I like to spend my last days in the Philippines. I so miss the people.
Oh Paul I cant watching this one.
You really did this one. Very encouraging and validating.
Hope a future conversation includes Karen and her Filipino husband. Surprised when the conversation turned towards end time Bible prophesy, an interest of mine. Would have liked to hear more of her opinion on timing/sequence of end time events.
I really like these 2 good people. Always enjoy watching
When I was stationed in the PI the filipino men were enamoured with American women with blond hair and light eyes. Wish her the best of luck in her life in the PI.
Thank you David
That was a great interview Paul i believe what Karen is saying about end times God bless
I came to United states when I was 25 years old, got married and have kids, I’ve been working for almost 32 years. My kids are all grown up and finished college. I made a decision to retire in the Philippines where I grew up. I had stayed in the Philippines for 4 months and enjoyed my stay. My plan is to retire in my own country where I grew up.
Great interview Paul! I recently complained that you don't do great interviews and I was losing interest in your channel. I was so wrong buddy. You can do it all. I am still a faithful subscriber my friend. I love just your simple talks but... you can do some kick ass videos too. Keep doing what you do buddy. You've got the magic.
What a pretty and mentally well-balanced and interesting guest; Best wishes to her family, and thanks Paul for having her on the show.
I’m living here in Southern California, can’t wait to retire and go back to my country, the Philippines!
Great interview Paul…Karen has a very nice smile and a calming affect to her personality as well…😊😊
I Love the topic because it's balanced both practicalities and spiritual matters on this conversation
very interesting i have watch Rev Billy Graham in the 60's on a Crusade in the Phil. I'm a PK third generation Methodist. Moved to US in my younger years, educated and have worked for 50 years. At 71 I'm finally coming home first time in 50+ yrs. Your interviews are promising.
Great vid Paul to watch! I am really impressed by your talent interviewing people! For a old dog your not to bad!!! You and Karen got real deep but was good! So thanks for the nice talk! ☺️ JIMBO
Glad you enjoyed it Jimbo
Great interview. What she says is true I agree with her biblical views. I was at Ground Zero coffee shop a few months back and met everyone. I had to go back to the USA in March to take care of business will be back to Dumaguete in a few months. Look forward to meeting everyone again.
Love this interview. Thanks to you Paul and Karen. God Bless!
Thank you Paul for having Karen in your show today. Hopefully your viewers around the world had been enlightened about the topics you talked about. Nice vlog Sir Paul
That was an amazing interview, thank you so much. I have been thinking a lot about the crazy times we are in; you and Karen said he quiet part out loud. God bless. 🙏
You are so welcome
@@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234 Hello Paul,
Did they mandate the experimental jab in the Philippines ? Were you able to refuse it ?
End of times indeed. What a interesting woman. Terrific interview. I’m glad in tuned in. Take care everyone
Best video you’ve ever made. That lady is awesome and speaks truth.
Great interview. Love every topic about God or about faith.
This is exactly the video I needed! My own beliefs are reflected here. Also she is proof that not all American women are useless. I know this to be true because I have sisters and female cousins worth their weight in gold.
I am happy you liked it Edwin
Very interesting interview. Karen’s story is definitely unique.
Send some money to Billy Grahams charity which goes to his sons house, cars, and pocketbook👍
HI Karen it was so refreshing to see your pretty face. You really help validate me relocating to the Philippine's. Thanks for your encouragement and upliftment. Your sooooo beautiful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much Elett! I'm so glad you enjoyed the interview! God bless you!!
I came here in America 1986 and have been back to visit twice once in 2010 and another 2019. Both times were such a wonderful time I spent there I miss it so much I can’t wait to retire and finally settle there. I have been watching a lot of your video Paul and other you tubers that blogg there in the Philippines.iam getting my mind set absorbing all the information so when I get there I know what to expect. Love your blog Paul and I enjoy the interviews on everyone who’s on there.
Paul this video was fantastic sir! Definitely refreshing content from a woman’s perspective. Thank you Karen for sharing with us your view! 🙏🏻
Paul you’re so humble and widely respected. You rock!! Wishing you all the very best!

Thanks so much Jamie
In my opinion and based on some American friends of mine, once you learn the Filipino language, it is easier for them to treat you more like a local and kinda assume you are meztiza only. By the way, generally based on Filipino culture, when you show you are a believer, and you share the word, the Filipino raises their level of respect for you. Paul I never would have thought you are a Christian. Praise God. No wonder, you have become one of the Expat leaders now. God has His way.
Language helps a great deal.
Just smile at the curious Pinoy stares and it will melt their hearts.We are not malicious. Mayve naughry but not mean..
Now this is different when you invited a christian wife and talking about her life in PH and most of all about eschatology. I like that. Just talking about our relationship with God in PH is better topic. Thanks
Excellent information. Thanks Paul you hit the nail on the head. God bless you and your lovely wife.
Thank you kindly
