Hi Littlefuerie,
Dumaguete City is a college town, lots of students and no problem to find libraries. Swimming is no problem, we have plenty of places to go. There are fresh water places to kayak I am told, and kayaks are utilized in the seaas well.
You will find a place to rent as well.
Your command of English will enable you to communicate easily.
The people here from all over the world are on the whole friendly, adventurous,
and social. If you enjoy meeting new people Dumaguete City and all of Negros offers you an opportunity to jump into the scene.
Furthermore, if you have some musical talent don't forget to bring your instrument with you, a guitar, banjo, violin, keyboard, horn, flute, drums or a good voice will be welcomed to jam with the musicians who reside full or part time here.
Maayong pag-abot! (Welcome)
Kinhason
