Hi All,

My wife and I, like so many others these days, are actively searching for an offshore (outside the U.S.) retirement location. The tone and activity level of these boards certainly reflect a gentle, helpful community. We look forward to chatting with folks about the relative benefits of living in Dumaguete versus other parts of the Philippines.

Coyotes,

Yes. Right now we're lookiing at a spring arrival. We have to visit the wife's family in Taipei, so the short flight down is not a big deal.

Hello only me, welcome to the forum.

[Teacher]

Welcome to the Forum. I it is nice place here. But we do have some grouchy old men around but all in in all it is a wonderful place to get to know.

Jimeve thanks for your kind words on the other thread.

Teacher, your welcome, I love the Philippines also I usually visit Dumaguete
every winter but the credit crunch stops me this time, maybe next time.

Have a prosperous new year.

Jim.

Hi Jimeve and Teacher,

Thanks for the welcome. Teacher, "grouchy old men" I can deal with. If that's the worst of it in the realm of personalities, Dumaguete must be a genuine candidate for designation as a Shangri-la. I've never gotten off the train at Miao Li, but I'm quite familiar with it's location on the line between Taipei and Taichung.
