Another Great Video by you both! Thanks so much for the recommendations. It was particularly helpful when you gave a comparison about the Phillipine Cities and how they might be similar to places in the US. Now on the furniture and personal belongings, not only am I a pack-rat, but I have a strong sentimental attachment to my belongings. So much, until I have already looked into shipping my things. I have already stored everything for now, and I was thinking that once I found where exactly I'd like to settle, then having it all shipped via Container Cargo, including my Vehicle. I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised at the cost, as I was thinking that it would have been much more expensive to ship. But one of the things that I was told to do is that when shipping the Vehicle, to just go ahead and purchase the entire Container, which did not cost that much more, and then fill it with the furniture and other personal belongings that I'd like to keep. But again, I won't do any of that until I decide where I'd like to settle. Also, the only other unknown that might alter this plan is what you mentioned about having to pay Custom Fees, and if that may make this plan too cost prohibitive. But I will be saving this video, and will keep it as a Reference!! Again, thanks for the Great Advice!!
Glad you found the video useful! I thought very long and carefully about shipping my car and furniture from California. However, I was dissuaded by the customs fees.
Manila is a dirty place -do not stay too long there. And def. do not wander around unless you want to get robbed or stabbed. And Angeles city is just bunches of clubs..and working women. I was deployed there years ago. Go to the Visayas quickly -must cleaner and less likely to get you killed...or robbed.

@@EricandcindysadventuresYes....and once I finalize things and get an assessment of those Custom Fees, I might end up coming to the same decision!!🙂🙂
