I live in the Philippines on $350 a month, sometimes I even allow myself a beer My motto
it's better to wear out than to rust
I am 60 years old. I am from Ukraine, from the city of Mariupol, my business is there.
My apartment, my house, and even My district is completely destroyed,
but I do not lose hope.
My adult children work in Germany.
Hi @RestoringPhilippines, Would you like to be a guest start on one of my videos? Here is an example guest star video: th-cam.com/video/ySM_2jAC4v4/w-d-xo.html
Your interview could be just your voice or we could do a zoom call showing your face. If you would like to be a guest star and share your story please leave a personal message here: vagabondbuddha.com/contact/
Thank you for your comment. The detail of your comment makes this real for people. If you have a business, service, or TH-cam channel, you could share that on the interview. Best, Dan
​@@EamonnHogan-eu3qc
Ukranian people are generally very resourceful, in many cases they've had to be.
Check out average salary & cost of living in Ukraine.
Ukranian people can live equally as a Filipino does, no problem at all.
@@EamonnHogan-eu3qc
Live like a local Filipino - they do it all the time. Some expats have done this too - just do not get romantically attached to any of the locals - they will milk you dry.
Go to one of the provinces, live in a small town in a rented room or small tin shack. I have done it, just be aware of the "rules of the jungle" in poor areas.
Make lots of friends - preferably without committing to giving them money (which you will be asked for a lot).
But if you choose one of the 7500+ islands, you will not be far from the ocean.
Keep Strong dude) It is a big catastrophe what happened to Mariupol in 2022 even through Mariupol is being renovated now. Nothing can get back the died people. Is there any compensation from Russian Donetsk PR government?
Can you get residency easily there or do you have to buy visas?
I retired to Jomtien Thailand 9 months ago today. I rent a 40 square meter 1 bedroom condo about a 15-minute walk to the beach. I am surrounded by restaurants, bars, pharmacies, and convenient stores. I cook some meals but eat out most of the time. I travel to different parts of Thailand every few months. I am not a drinker or smoker and spend about $1500 a month, all in including visa fees and health insurance. It's a good life at a very affordable price.
What are you paying for health insurance. Please reply here: vagabondbuddha.com/contact/
There ya go. That's sounds like the kind of place for me. What about the language. I no speak Thai. :)
That's where I'm moving. I don't drink, smoke or motorbike. I work out, walk, have friends there, and enjoy its night market
Thanks for the eyewitness report. @@kleerogers
@@LahrySibleyI live in Jomtien and You can get by ok speaking just English. Speak slow and choose your words , no slang
Love you guys. Yall influenced me to travel. I retired in Austin TX. 4 yrs. ago. I'm now 57. I recently started my journey in tokyo and now I'm in okinawa for 2 months. Taiwan next then Thailand and all of SE Asia. No plans to ever return to the states. Thank you for giving me the information to jumpstart my new life!
We're in Texas and have a place in Thailand. Did you keep your place in Austin? Safe travels amigo.
Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand are my favorites as a slow traveler. Thank you ðŸ™ðŸ¼
Budapest would be too cold f/me, and not coastal enough. I like Thailand. I'd have to see Cebu to make a judgement on the Philippines. I've been to Costa Rica and all over Mexico, and I speak Spanish, but prefer S.E. Asia to U.S. proximity. But if I stayed in MX on $1,000 budget it'd be San Miguel de Allende. Never been to Malaysia, been to P.R., Jamaica, Aruba multiple X
Love hearing your experiences around the world. You two are traveling rock stars!
Rock on brother!
Tamarindo is so Americanized that the locals refer to it as Tamagringo! It is very expensive due to so many foreigners visiting and wanting to live there. You can live for $1000 a month in the towns of Occidente (from 30 to 45 minutes from the International Airport) like Grecia, Sarchi, Naranjo, Palmares, and San Ramon. These are more Costa Rican towns with all the amenities and offer nice weather yet only 45 minutes to 1 hour from the capital city and 90 minutes from the beaches of the Central Pacific Coast.
Never let the FUD stop you! Fear Uncertainty and Doubt are just there to confuse you.
What is F U D ???
@@davidbrown4271 Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt
I couldn't agree more. Never heard it put into that acronym before. That's great!
I love the video, you two. And it really is "you two". What a team. You both are very well informed. But your dialog is incredible. You both are obviously equally informed, and so you share a conversation as if some one wrote it and then you agree on which line one or the other will speak without getting off topic. The respect you have together and for each other is like nothing I've ever seen. Thank you for letting us all see your beautiful relationship together. No competition, just a unified flow. Wow.
I would think all of your comments in these videos would be similar with a rent budget of say $500 US/mo. I have an income of more than 2K. But as you well pointed out, one must have an emergency contingency and a way to fund said emergency. But I also like to travel. That consideration in mind, which SE Asian Country would you recommend as a hub to stay and yet be able to visit other near by countries.
Me, I love the markets and when I see street food in Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, I drool. I would definitely need to be near one of those. A really big one like Bangkok, I probably would not need to be anywhere else ever. LOL. The other must have for me is great snorkeling/scuba diving very near by. I could spend equal amounts of time underwater and at the fish counter eating what I've seen. LOL. Internet is a must have also.
Public transportation in these places to me is just a no brainer. Traffic, parking, theft, staying alive, insurance, all of these things are of no concern with public transportation. And in most places it is very cheap. Catching a motorcycle taxi maybe not such a smart thing. But the tuk tuks are fine and they know how to go with the big squeeze.
Thanks again for the great video. But the biggest reward for me is watching you two work together. Just wonderful. I love you both and I have meeting you two on my bucket list. ;) Be blessed. Have fun. Lahry
Hi @LahrySibley, I do a report every year on the top 15 places in the entire world to retire cheap in paradise, Here is my most recent report and video on that topic:

Yes. This
What a bargain sale. I'm just getting started. I would have felt a little overwhelmed with all the reports. But Dan has a 7 chapters guide that is very helpful for us newbies. 😊😅😂
Thanks for watching and commenting @livingworkingoutsidebox! We loved it. Dan
Spot on about Mexico as I have worked and lived off and on in Mexico for over 40 years.
@@RetireandGo I know more about Malaysia than Mexico. Malaysia is another world. Have learnt so much about Malaysia that i could write a book about it. Hope you are visiting there also.
Extremely refreshing relaxed, informative video. It's been 50 years since taking a surfing trip with a couple buddies to El Salvadore and then exploring , hitchhiking, down to Costa Rica through Nicaragua and back up through Guatemala and then taking the train through Mexico back all the way to Nuevo Laredo, Texas to hitchhike back to my van (by then I'm alone) parked in New Orleans. I recognize many of the names you mention. What a sweet life you live and share. Thank you🤩
ðŸ‘ðŸ‘👠thanks both of you ðŸ™ðŸ™ðŸ™
Dan, I am Vietnamese, was born in Nha Trang but left Vietnam 🇻🇳 n 1975. Haven’t been back yet! Since watching you on TH-cam made me want to go back to visit or retire but kind of scare from all the things that I heard from TH-cam about foods conditions…. And the heat, humidity.. so I am not sure about it… the only thing I know is speak Vietnamese but everything’s changed since I left 48 years ago… thanks ðŸ™
Just do it. Yes, Just do it! Your home country is so beautiful and the local people will welcome you. Going back to see your roots is freedom on wings. It will lift you so...
You should definitely visit. Your knowledge of the language is a huge advantage. I had a nice vacation there but the language was the biggest obstacle. Prices are vey low. It's one of the cheapest countries on Dan's list.
I have been to Vietnam three times this year and love it. Don't wait, go now and enjoy the beauty of Vietnam and its people. Suggest starting in Saigon (district 1) and slowly working your way up the coast, Nha Trang (beach), Da Lat (cool mountains), Hoi An (beautiful small town), Da Nang, Hanoi and Ha Long Bay. TH-cam videos are not the same as boots on the ground and everyday experiencing new exciting experiences in Vietnam. GO NOW.
I totally recommend Vietnam. You are welcome @christophemusic1975. Your comment grows our channel. :-) Dan
Have you seen our TH-cam playlist for each country? Vietnam is there with a bunch of videos.

Thanks guys for another wonderful informative video. I watch all of your video's because I'll be retiring and traveling the world when I'm 62 in a few years. I wish I could pack up and get started right now, but I'm not going to pass up on my company pension that would make it much easier for me financially.
Thank you. I envy your position now, and hope to be in a similar place in a few years; God willing.
that is also my plan. I will be 62 in 18 months and I am already downsizing. My house will be either an Air B*B or sold Turnkey so I can just leave it all. I have only traveled to Panama, but I am excited to travel to other parts of the world. the actual TRIP there might be a challenge. Where are you right now? I am in SWFL.
@@anniesshenanigans3815 That's great, I envy you bc I still have another seven yrs to go. Brooklyn has been my home since birth and I'm still here right now; I've tried to escape a few times in my life when I was a younger man,; but I've always came back home to Brooklyn, with my head hung low, and tail between my legs, haha; but my wife is from Ecuador so I've been there a few times and I love it there. We own a condo in Quito that we currently rent out to a wonderful expat-lady who lives there and does her works online. So my youngest will be finished with college in a couple of years, I'll be 62 in seven yrs and will be able to sell our house live well on just my company pension in Ecuador without having to tap our 401's and file for SS at a later date; God willing but inflation may change this whole idea.
I hope your plans work out, prayers and best wishes for you.
Yes!! This is fantastic! It really, really helps knowing 1) which countries a person could retire in (and why) on $1,000 USD / month; and 2) how those countries compare to each other.
I bet a lot of us would like to see you do a separate video where you compare countries specifically for health care / medical tourism.
@@RetireandGo Thanks! Please consider posting a video on the topic of medical care: quality & cost - country vs country.
They have done videos where they compare cities
@@vhoy7899 Yes, and they were great! But I would like to see a comparison of different countries (like Malaysia vs Thailand) specifically on health care (cost & quality).
Search his library! Lots of info
I was excited about Bali but then learned that the new visa requirements as of this week, have become prohibitive. Must have $$$ to deposit.
Fantastic info, as always. I hadn’t realized that the national visa websites don’t always give the most comprehensive info, and that you can learn more by speaking with various expats within the country about what they’re doing.
Hi guys. Costa Rica under 1k$, not sure. I loved ecuador but much violence now. I miss Europe but again, under 1k$ ?? Good Surprise. I have to go discover Nicaragua. Mexico is not cheap anymore with the 24% increase of the pesos value. I went to Querretaro and Guanajato on your recommendation and I loved them. First time I rented in Albarata i paid 700cad$ per month now it is 1,200cad$. Sor me I would Guatemala and SEA, mainly Thailand or Vietnam.
Dominican Republic is in the hurricane belt of the Caribbean. I also probably wouldn't want to live there. There are some cities on the north shore that are pretty safe day to day, but I experienced Hurricane Elena while stationed in Florida and once was more than enough. That was back in the 80's. Today, hurricanes are much more frequent.
You can rent in Jomtien for 200 to 300 easily . I pay 215 great condo complex. I don’t need a car or bike, my complex has retail on the first floor.

You two are just interesting characters. I’ve followed your vids and travels for a number of years already. I retired a few years ago on a limited budget as an American. I been to many of the cities and some of the same restaurants in many of your visited towns in Mexico and loved it. Spent some time in the Philippines and now reside in Thailand. As I watch your videos as I to wonder to travel next I am appreciative of your insights. Keep up the great content and most importantly keep having safe and fun travels.

Your new health regimen ( intermittent fasting etc.) is working - you're looking great Dan.
Please remember the airline tickets. You can't just stay in these countries😅. The visas offered to stay beyond your passport are not worth it. I get tired of all the countries after 30 to 90 days😅. 1000.00 will not work😄!!!!
How often you move needs to be added of course. These are on the ground stationary costs not slow travel costs. Thanks for making thtis point.
It's clear they are talking about on the ground monthly expenses.
Ty for your information i know yall know what u talking bout unlike some these other vloggers enjoy yall videos cause i can know truth bout asia
Thank you. But do understand that what we are talking about here not everyone can do. Most expats live on much higher budgets. I explain in the limitations section at the end. :-)
By the way, you have a wonderful disposition. Very pleasing and soothing.
Great video covering so many countries, thanks for sharing!
As someone who has the desire to travel, I really like everything you both bring to your channel. You actually make me think about factors that I haven’t considered. The soundest advice anyone could ever give is considering a country’s “limitationsâ€. Your first piece of advice is seldom discussed. I appreciate both of you for sharing your experiences with those of us considering traveling. Thank You ðŸ™ðŸ¼
You never talk about a very important part of retiring somewhere. Its about communication with locals. Language and welcoming of the people other than Phillipines. Who wants to move somewhere if they cant connect with locals? Not me.
If you know what you want that is half the battle. I enjoy living in many places around the world. Some English, some not. Thanks for sharing. :-)
This video is just so good!
Great report and summary, thank you.

Great idea!
Last night I talked to a woman who just came back to Colorado from living in Ecuador for 3 years. When she went there it was one of the safest countries. Three years later, one of the most dangerous, due to the cartels taking over. Which really sucks.
That is one of the reasons I say not to buy real estate in foreign countries. Hand the keys back to the landlord and move on to greener pastures.

Looking good as always and good infoâ£
I can't live on a 1000 for one person in Malaysia or Portugal. $2000 in Malaysia and , if you own your condo, $2000 in Portugal for one person.
A neighbor retired in Portugal. I am watching travelogs about the islands there and the "village" life . Seems quite nice ! 😊
Just live rural or near cities. It can be done.
Thank you for being thinking thoughtful people. I think this video was really well done with a lot of good reliable information.
What a wonderful resource you've created
If you want to live on cheeses and wines, i would recommend Turkey or Georgia.
I LIKE THE VIDEO IT'S VERY HELPFUL THANK YOU CHEERS N HULAHULALUIA
So nice of you
Where do they live now??
Thanks for the video and info. Last year, I lived in the Jomtien area for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K and that's with companionship with a regular Thai lady for 3x a week without buying any LDs and barfines. I did not eat any western food due way more expensive and been eating Thai food in the market. In my early 50's now, I was planning to retire but I changed my mind in the very last second and back to work in CA. Will do this again, next year.
It is nice to hear your budget numbers. I wonder how that breaks down by category.
I think Taiwan (not thailand) is also a good place to retire, world class & affordable health care, world class infrastructure, super safe, great cuisine and relatively affordable cost of living
I wonder what China will do about Taiwan ... 🤔â“ï¸
@@jamescalifornia2964 nothing
​@@jamescalifornia2964 ..... lol
Appreciate what you both do. Very helpful. Just signed up for the lifetime membership! Looking forward to the slow travel.
Great news Dan and Chung.
I've missed you guys, and look 116k subs. No surprise there. Congrats on your well deserved success!
Good Video.
Have you thought of also adding a comparable a cost of living video to include a scenario as if you were to live the similar "traveling" lifestyle Back in your home country (USA) or even in Portland? I think that would/could be an interesting comparison.
pretty much everywhere in the us is 2k a month for rent (at the low end) so these really don't compare at all. Living on 1k a month is far below anything affordable in the US without some sort of subsidy.
Thanks for all your videos. Very interesting. It would be nice to see a video on what your yearly costs (all in) are, please.
Great idea, thanks!
This is excellent guys, very interesting & enjoyable.
Thanks for sharing.
@ 23:57 totally right 'bout that, the travel savvy individuals are the ones that'll see the phils. as a great dest.
With the countries that you mentioned that I’ve been to I agree with. Some countries the rent might be cheaper but the food and nightlife might be more expensive while others the rent might be more expensive but the food and nightlife might be cheaper. I’ve had the experience if a place is too expensive I’ve shortened my stay their and ive also had it where if the lodging is cheaper than expected ive stayed longer..
Very helpful. Thank you. I want to retire very soon, or at least take my work on the road.
I like the idea of getting down to a very low budget like $2000 a month for the simple fact that it forces you to live like a local.
I biggest bitch about the United States is that everybody’s so busy working that they don’t interact with each other. My big interest in living overseas is Living somewhere where people have the time to interact with each.
That is the biggest difference you will experience overseas.
Glad I found you here big help to research
How do you decide when it is time to move on to another country? How long do you often stay in a "home base" country?
Great question @dkdisme. In this video, I explain how to slow travel the world on a tourist visa for 14 years. It tells how much time favored nations can spend in each country without getting a visa before arrival. But do verify before flying because rules change all the time. Here is that report: vagabondbuddha.com/how-to-retire-on-a-tourist-visa/
Thanks for your great question,
Dan

NZ isn’t cheap, it’s about the same price as Australia.
@@wesparsons5331 I said parts of new Zealand you can live very cheap plant a veg garden fishing only need money for some food items and other expenses if you know you know if you don't know then best you don't comment
Columbia seems FAR more safe now- Well, now that most drug routes are in Mexico!! hahaha. The food is tasty there!! Great vid! So glad to see you both having such a good time.
So Cambodia is very cosmopolitan is what I'm hearing... With an eclectic group of people.
Wow I can't wait to explore the world.. I am single here in America and it's impossible to find a decent woman.. and inflation is insane !
Dan, i'd definitely like to be a Slow Traveler too, but loneliness is a worry. Correct my math, please, but weren't you alone for about 3 years before you met Qiang? How did you keep from being lonely before you met her? And were you 58 y/o when you met her? I am now 55, so wondering if I can succeed in your traveling model. Having a great partner in life would def help in these travels! Thanks for any tips!
I have been on the road since 2007. She has been with me since 2016. My experience is that it is easier to get attention, both friends and love outside your home country.
Dominican Republic: you said you could but you wouldn't. You were very vague about why though. Could you take a minute to expand on that? My wife (from DR) and I are considering retiring there in a couple of years. It would be on a modest fixed income of appx $2000/mo. Your candid thoughts would be appreciated.
If you have done your exploratory visits there and like it, then you will be fine. I have a freind there and he is perfectly happy.
Great video but just saying chapter makers for a video like this would be good.
Good idea!
Everybody is awaiting your Buenos Aries report, when? Look at the exchange since two weeks ago, wow!
I'd welcome your views on living in the Philippines when you have an income in excess of $4,000 per month. Recent increases in US social security benefits makes this a realistic possibility.
Most expats live on 1500 to 3000 USD over there. So you should ne able to even save some money for inflation.
I just spent about three months there, of 4K USD you will live very well. I stayed in three different locations, I’m from Australia and I don’t think it’s for me. It’s a pretty big step backwards to be honest. Lots of expats love it though so I guess it’s just personal opinionðŸ‘
What about Turkey, Brazil, Argentina?
Stay tuned. Coming up!
I like Vietnam the most.. 😂
I would love to retire in Vietnam, but they make it impossible. Looking at South Korea.
Yes, they don't have the retirement visa. Historically people did Visa runs there and got other kinds of visas as mentioned in the video towards the end on "limitations.".
you should talk to your buddy Old Dog , he just put out his budget for the month , 17,000 and he is a homebody . Someone is selling snake oil
Must be 17000 peso, you can rent a home in Dumaguete for two-three hundred a month on long term leases. I was just there, it’s not my cup of tea to be honest.
If I only had $1000/month for two people….think I’m living in Manizales, Colombia….
25% cheaper than Medellin, one of the safest cities in Colombia.
Cool temps
Friendly people
Colombia has great hospitals and dental
We’ll see….still traveling….
Costa Rica…lived there before, have family there, would never live there again. It’s Nicaragua at two or three times the price and more dangerous.
Guatemala….moving to Xela in February !!!
Still living in Matagalpa, Nicaragua and love it, but even here it is too hot for us.
Great video !
Can't wait to see where you guys go next. :-)
I've tried Spain and Thailand for many years and I'm living in the Philippines now, the visa rules are great in the Philippines but I guess Thailand actually is a better place ðŸ‘
$1000 I couldn't live anywhere 😅

@@VagabondAwake would be nice I guess, but I will probably cause war between keyboard worriors in the comments because I'm brutally honest with my experience in the different countries 😅ðŸ‘
@@kleerogers tell me more about the visa lottery
@@roger.b8046 Even better! Please be honest.
@@kleerogersDepends where in Philippines. Places like Siargao are better than anywhere in Thailand.
You didn’t mentioned Albania, been hearing a lot of positive opinions about that country!
Just don't go to their beaches. They will kick you out if you do not pay the private club fee.
@@RetireandGo My daughter went there recently and loved it, I think it’s 90 days on entry and for certain countries it’s possible to extend for another year, but definitely do some research as visa rules change all the time! You Tubber Skye Samuels has some good vlogs traveling around Albania ðŸ‘
How about Healthcare ?
Here is my best info on cheap quality health care.
If you want to drive, then Malaysia is #1 - no special skills, just be more defensive.
You should also talk about people culture in these places...do they welcome foreigners if they stay permanently? Are people friendly? Its not just the cost guys or the green...
We will keep that in mind for the next one. Thanks. :-)
Hi Dan. No audio from Chung's mic on this video...her voice is only picked up in the background of your mic
check your speakers. I could hear her on my computer.
@@terrya1252 check my comment again
The problem with Colombia is the tax situation. Be careful.

Dan, I am Spanish in Spain it is impossible..You should show this localise place
What if I retired to the Philippines but I want to create and sell original art would I be taxed?
I live on $2K/month here in Dallas, Texas (in a great residential suburb renting my own place). why would I pay $2k/month to live in some undeveloped third world country? I don't get some of these prices I have been seeing lately, a lot of these countries prices have skyrocketed and to get an equivalent lifestyle to my current I would have to pay the same $2k/month.
2000 in Dallas , how my apartment was 1400 nothing special . I lived in Dallas since 1962. I retired to Thailand and have a better life here than I did in Dallas. I live minutes from the beach, eat better and have a better social life. 800 plus 400 for fun. I don’t miss mass shootings, criminal politicians, people walking into stores stealing , homeless people on the streets, woke movement , teaching school age kids inappropriate things , I will take the third world country.
