Well, schooling could be a huge issue, specially if moving to abroad, so what are we talking about here? They just left kindergarten or they are finishing college?

By the way nobody mentioned yet the 2 places solution. Why not have a main residence somewhere (maybe where taxation is less) but still live during the hot/cold part of the year somewhere else? Off season renting is dirt cheap, I am sure you can afford 3-4 months of renting in the South during the winter months or even in Spain/Portugal.

At least that is our master plan...

Large areas of Manila are also a slum, I would not advise people to live here unless they have a job that pays very well and it comes with a personal driver

I think hearing an honest review from a professional like yourself is much better perspective based on reality. I have probably read too many reviews where the reviewer judges the quality of an entire city based on where they can buy some cheap San Migs lol......

Well, cheap beer is obviously paramount for me as well but luckily, the prices are roughly the same everywhere.
Perhaps I was being too negative previously, you can live in Metro Manila and have a decent life if you don't need to go travel around often. There are plenty of nice condo developments with decent service for an affordable price. On top of that, ordering things online and getting free/cheap delivery is very common now. So you can hermit if you want and just live in your condo bubble.

Lol I never saw any indications in any of your previous posts to indicate that cheap beer was paramount for you. I must have missed it. Last question and this is an important one, I know this is subjective but does the food suck or not? Is it possible to get American style food there? (pizza, hamburgers ect..ect?). How about just regular konbini food like Japan? They have Family Mart/711 and Lawson where you are I think just like Japan. I need to do some research. Thanks.
