I came over from Steves channel. I learned a couple of new tips from you and appreciate it. God bless
Awesome thanks! I'm glad you picked up a point or two. Thank you!
@@DigitalNomadsExplore The whole video was helpful but I have been researching for a year already. Thanks again.
@@k9companion231 That's great! That is the way to do it...research and more research well before. Thanks for your comment.
Thank you so much for posting this content! I really appreciate your efforts, your video was so well organized, and your demeanor is so kind! I wish you so much success!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks so much. I hope to keep posting more content. I wish you well on your travels.
good video of the list.
Glad you think so! Thanks.
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Damn brother you covering everything CZcams's don't talk like you😊
Thanks
Maybe thinking about it
Research and planning is the key. If you can adjust the Philippines is a great place to retire. Just buy what you need to be comfortable.
Hey, Can you please cover on the VISA which is needed for being a digital Nomad - if you are working remotely for a firm based outside of the PH? Is the TV going to suffice? Thanks!
Yes a tourist is enough. Many expats work for US companies remotely while on a tourist visa. You can stay up to three years while renewing it every 2 or 6 months depending on the visa office you go to. I'll make a video on it.
@@DigitalNomadsExplore Thanks! A video on it will be awesom!
@@DigitalNomadsExploreplease do
Using google flights for the throwaway ticket i found some ticket brokers that offered an upgrade ($10) to a refundable ticket that offered a refund of 80% of the ticket cost upon cancelation...I stand to loose only about $25 doing that way.
That's great. Thanks for adding your comment.
Do share
OK now where would I live after arriving at the airport and do I need a visa from the US and for how long?
No, you get a visa on arrival. Just bring your US passport. You get initially for 1 month and then you can extend.
I ask something why do u prepare living here in the Philippines instead to your country from craig Anderson
The biggest reason for most is a lower cost of living. Fir example, it's cheaper to live outside the United States. But there are many other reasons people may have.
So how do I get a pH phone number before arriving in the pH?
You need to buy a SIM card for the Philippines on Ebay. And your cellphone needs to be able to support (dual SIM card slot) switching your old SIM for the new. Once you have inserted the new one you have a Philippines phone number (shown on SIM card package as well in your phone info screen). Then load minutes. Buy a load card on eBay too or just load at the airport. You need to register your SIM card too eventually by April 2023 if coming before that current deadline. You can register and load minutes once in the Philippines.
My question is I have a Google Pixel that has a built in SIM card so how do you get a PI phone number onto that?
@@philrose7716 Get an eSim they just rolled these out. Here is the info: technology.inquirer.net/128395/smart-rolls-out-prepaid-and-postpaid-esim-offers-via-digital-delivery-sets-the-pace-for-esim-adoption-in-ph
You forgot 2 important items to bring, bring Common sense and respect, these 2 things will help a lot 😅
Absolutely 💯!!!
@TravelDiscovery101 I always have to put my 2 cents in, great information in your vid
I’m a disabled Army veteran planning on moving to the Philippines, what documentations will I need to take care of here in the states before I leave?
If you mean just to enter the Philippines for the first time you get a tourist visa on arrival and you need a valid passport. If you mean starting the SRRV retirement visa before you leave the US then you can contact: Contact Mary Rosa PRA agent and she will give you the list of documents (serious applicants only)👇

I also made this video on the SRRV: czcams.com/video/nSScuWPD11c/video.html
@@DigitalNomadsExplore thank you so much, I will look into it.
@@DigitalNomadsExplore I’ve already been to the Philippines, I’m going back there permanently in October.
Hey. I'm also an Army Veteran. Filipino American. Some family there and considering moving. Don't want to settle in America
