What the Philippines is REALLY like for Foreigners (HONEST TRUTH)

Should you really move to the Philippines to live as a foreigner?

I have been living in the Philippine s(Manila) as a foreigner for 6 months, so I wanted to do a quick voiceover video on some of the pros and cons of living in the Philippines as an expat.

My opinion is based solely on my own experiences, and everyone's journey is unique, so no offence is intended as I share my pros and cons of living in the Philippines as a foreigner. As always in this style of video I try to weigh both the good and the bad in a fair way.

I hope you enjoy this video!
