My expat journey



Puerto Princesa City, Mimaropa, Philippines

Blaine, Washington, USA
Re-visit the places I've lived and visited and as many places I have not been to yet. Considering doing ethnographic field research of indigenous peoples of the Philippines, linguistics and culinary as well. I already speak Tagalog and Hiligaynon which I think would be an asset in this endeavor.
I was a personnel specialist in the Federal civil service and during my military service, I was a human intelligence specialist and linguist (Spanish, French, Tagalog, and Chinese-Mandarin).
I like many locations I've traveled to in the Philippines but I would really like to visit Puerto Princesa and other parts of Palawan and possibly settle there.
I didn't find find anything I disliked during my visit to this destination.

Filip74nofx: Good answer, dinky2408! I'll second that and might add get to know fellow expats and locals. If you have the means, visit several locations, say, the mountain region, a small city and the places by the sea. That will give ... Read More
