Awe Danielle, sweety I can imagine how much you miss Guam . I was blessed to fly out there to visit Guam and it grew on me fast . 😭 , I do understand how much you miss snorkeling, I did it too and I saw so much beauty there . You make friends so easy and I'm proud to have a daughter in law like you . If for some reason y'all are stationed there again , count me in . I do understand how hard it is to move away from home . We did it in 1998 to 1999 . About 15 months in California, the boys were happy so we were happy as well . I'm sure Nor Folk will start rubbing off of you and the back is just a couple of hours away right ? Look at it like your touring the world . Love ya
Thanks Dani ...ready to relocate to Guam your videos are of great value to me...I have watched your treasure videos, so informative and so well presented...Gracias for all the hard work you put on them
Hafa Adai Dani, thank you to answer my request with your Guam basic needs video, i am planning to watch all your videos, but didn't get a chance to watch this one yet. it's very good video and explain a lot about Guam what we need to know. Good job ! we really enjoyed it. Please keep making good videos like this one. Thank you again. Love from Hi.
Hello! Thanks for all the info (I also love grocery shopping so the rundown is great!). Where would be the best place to find a cheap used car to buy? I did look into longer term rentals but they seem pretty pricy
I would definitely check out these groups: Guam Used Cars facebook.com/groups/304340689585416/?ref=share Guam Grabs (buy and sell) facebook.com/groups/guamgrab/?ref=share
Dani, I want to thank you for putting out these videos on Guam. I have been looking for a place to move to get away from the craziness in the US. I have my sights on Guam, but it is hard to find information. Your videos are helpful. I have additional more detailed interests/inquiries but did not want to use your email as you listed it for business inquiries only. In short, I am trying to find out what volunteer efforts/organizations are there on Guam. I used to be heavily involved with Habitat for Humanity when I lived in Arizona and Oregon. I was a team leader within the organization and have significant building/remodeling skills. I would like to find similar organizations where I can use my career long skills to help others. BTW, so glad to hear that you have a Home Depot there. That is like my version of a Mall. I also would like to get in touch with a good realtor who knows the island and would be able to tell me if what I am looking for is even available there. Thank you again for putting out these helpful videos.
I'm so happy the videos were helpful! I really hope I'll get to go back after everything has calmed down and create new and updated ones. Guam does have a Habitat for Humanity committee! I'll see if I still have the contact info. For realtors you can definitely connect with Raymond Rupley. He helped me find my last two places while I was there. I'll get his email for you too 👍
@@toolwarrior1773 Ray's email is ray.rupley@guamhome.com. He'll take great care of you! The number for Habitat for Humanity on Guam is 671-647-4667 and you can ask for Alicia Aguon. Hope this helps!
@@toolwarrior1773 There are definitely things I miss, but I've been loving exploring a new place and meeting new people. Guam will always be home of course! 🇬🇺
Dani, Hafa Adai , ( I don't know if I used that phrase correctly in this format - from what I've researched that's the equivalent of saying "Aloha" on Hawaii and "Hello" in the 48 continental U.S. states and Alaska. :-) ) You put out a lot of useful information for the newcomer to Guam. As you can attest to, commissary and base gasoline purchase privileges makes a BIG difference in the monthly living expenses budget. Do you know anything about the Village of Piti? ( Other than it's adjacent to the Navy base and inhabited by approx. 90% Sailors and in the not too distant future - Marines!
I never lived in Piti but it's a really nice and balanced location for having peace and privacy but still being close enough to the central areas for most basic needs 🙂
It definitely is a teeny bit pricier than the U.S. only because of import costs, but you can still find some great deals! For housing, it depends if you're military or civilian. Most homes will rent out for the amount of BAH/OHA that military are afforded, so around 2200-2400 monthly. As a civilian I've rented solo at 800 a month, or if you have a roommate you'd be able to split a two bedroom unit at 1400-1500 a month (about 750 per person). Hope that helped answer your question!
@@daneliasosa6077 No volcanoes, but there are occassionally earthquakes and tropical storms. It's been a really long time since a typhoon has hit too. As far as the crime rate, it really depends on where you stay. Just like any other place, there are safe areas and questionable areas; it's all about seeing who your neighbors would be. We always had great neighbors who were just friendly and looked out for each other 😊
I'd say possible homes for rent, as hotels can get pricey for that long of a time. Quieter areas that are also near a lot of stuff for families would be Agana Heights, some parts of Tamuning, and more south in Asan/Piti. I would definitely check with someone from Today's Realty or Modern Realty Guam to see what kind of options they have!
great video, I liked how you put the video together on how to live in Guam 🇬🇺, I am a young man looking to move to Guam, but your video doesn't mention about apartment living, what i mean by that is someone who is just starting out for the first time 😀, and yes I have a girlfriend that I would like for her to move there when I get there, lol, am from Wisconsin so could imagine how I don't like snow 😅, and then my last question would be, do they allow mini electric cars like to shop for groceries, any insight would be helpful, thank you for taking the time to read this - CyberGod
Hey there! For apartments options I would recommend checking in Agana Heights, Maite, and Tamuning. I've stayed in an apartment solo in Maite for $800/month and that included utilities. There are some in Tumon but they would likely be a little more pricey since it's a big tourist area. If you have your girlfriend as your roommate though then you might be able to afford those just fine, or even rent a smaller house! Definitely connect with a realtor for detailed options 😁 I recommend Today's Realty, Modern Realty Guam, or Remax Diamond Realty. For the groceries, are you referring to having a private shopper?
There’s one my mom is managing actually and it’s opening soon we’re just preparing though. Think it’s called Pocky’s Pet Supplies but it’s not open just yet
I would check with the U.S. Embassy in your country! You'll definitely love Guam 💛 Where in Indonesia are you from? We've gone to Bali twice for vacation and loved it there!
SUBSCRIBE for more as I post other videos on water activities, events, night life, fitness, recreation, etc. :)

Awesome video. Definitely should be helpful to those new to our beautiful island.
Yes! I plan to upload more on other aspects of Guam so I do hope it's helpful to others.

Thank you so much, and I'm glad they are helpful! When are you moving to Guam??

Thanks for the video it seems close to American cost of living. Just a little bit better cheaper in some simple stuff how much is rent and housing ?

How is the crime rate there for the elderly people only having social security
How are the cost of housing are there earthquakes or volcano there
Thank you for the answers I am planning on leaving the US

Being from Guam, where do you recommend for a family to live while travel nursing there for 3 months? Any advice moving from mainland to Guam?

Guam needs a good organic grocery store like Whole Foods.
That would be amazing! I would be there every other day if we had one hahaha 😅
There’s one my mom is managing actually and it’s opening soon we’re just preparing though. Think it’s called Pocky’s Pet Supplies but it’s not open just yet
I'm from Indonesia how to get Guam turis visa, because someday i'm want going to guam ❤️ i love Guam
I would check with the U.S. Embassy in your country! You'll definitely love Guam 💛 Where in Indonesia are you from? We've gone to Bali twice for vacation and loved it there!
