I am from Finland and don't know how they measure happiness there. I find the country silent, depressing, and very difficult to talk to people. Your country on the other hand I found very welcoming, socially warm, inviting, and beautiful in so many ways I can't write them all down here.
You are welcomed because you are a foreigner and if I assume, you might be white, you have certain benefits which the locals with their inferiority complex will provide you, they will be nicer to you, more welcoming and etc. because of the colonial mentality still prevailing amongs the population.
Hello Kai , I’m moving to Tagaytay February 4th
My good Finnish friend, Raili agrees!
I prefer the northern countries but girls don't like me there haha
@@octavia7408your comment is implying that Filipinos are racists. That is not very nice. Is it?
The quality of your videos, information and presentation keep improving, is appreciated and keeps me watching. Thanx Ru !!!
Always look down when walking along the road or sidewalks in the Philippines. If you are not careful you can end up on the missing persons list from falling into a big hole 😄
I always look down to avoid all the poop.
my GF is pulling my arm alot because I don’t look down 🤣
This is the first thing I learned in the Philippines.
Lol 😂
Wow, already 10.000 Subscribers.
Well done, congratulations.
Keep up your good work.
I am an American Expat living here in the Philippines for over 3 years. I have an SRRV visa and my Filipina wife and I bought a property/house west of Tagaytay.. To me, the best thing about the Philippines is it's people. Most of the people I have as friends are Philipinos. Yes, the traffic here is horrible, that is why I no longer drive here. My wife drive me or we hire one of our friends to drive me. We chose to live here because we are higher in elevation and it is cooler here.. We don't have a problem with flooding and Typhoons are not as bad as in many other areas. We love it here. Tagaytay has a good Medical Center with good Doctors and it doesn't cost much to see one. We love it here.
Brother I need to figure out how to get srrv
How hard is it to get srrv
@@tracyharris418 We rented a Condo in Manila for a couple of Months. When we applied they gave us all the formes we had to get filled out. It took about 2 mo. to get everything done. Steve at Philipines info Channel has connections to a servce company that can handle much of it for you. Check out his channel first. I just did all of it myself. It is really good to get this SRRV. Good luck and if I can help in any way, just let me know.
Tagaytay has a lovely active volcano not too far....
@@ross9581 Yes, that is Lake Taal and Volcano, that was one of the reasons we chose this area. It is really a beautiful area. I do like volcanos and we are just outside the danger area.
Very very good video! Have to say. Probably the best I've seen on this subject! Well done young lady!
Thank you for your honesty. I love your videos. You give me so much to think about retirement in your country. By the way, I have occasional kidney stones and bladder issues. Drinking cranberry juice mixed with a little club soda or soda water helps me a lot. Stay healthy and I look forward to seeing you again.
Thanks for the great information Rubeauti!
Rubeauty, brilliantly practical and informative. I really enjoyed the reality you sketched. This knowledge helps tremendously. Take good care of yourself 🤗
Great information Rubeati, and you look fantastic! Thank you 😊
Good info Rubeauti I appreciate it very much keep up the good work 😎🌺
Your little skits are entertaining, and a nice addition to the monologue. Also, your English vocabulary is really impressive.
Thank you Rubeauti, you're so open and honest. Hope your body has fully recovered! I think the healthcare would put a lot of British people off. We're used to free, high quality care all over the country. Take care lovely lady, love you too! 🥰❤️
Free, my ass.
Excellent video packed with good info.
Really great information from you . Thanks !
Thanks! You offer a very good message , you are a good teacher . thanks for sharing
First of all, congratulations on getting to over 10 thousand subscribers, your channel is growing pretty fast.
Lots of good and honest advice as always with your shared experiences. I’ve only visited Manila three times and each time there was an issue with taxi drivers. One time I got out of the cab when he stopped at a red light. I left the door open until I got my case out of the boot. I have also had it in Cebu also, but only a couple of times out of many taxi rides. You do need to be aware of the scams, but that’s the same wherever you go. Healthcare was the main reason I’ve never moved there full time, but even in the UK now, the healthcare service is not like it was, and has long waiting lists.
I had a taxi scam attempt in Cebu back in 2019. This was my 1st ever visit to the Philippines. I stayed two weeks; I spent 1 week in Cebu and a week on Davao City. With the exception of that one instance the visit and taxi trips were great. Anyways, it began with me flagging down a taxi. After entering the cab, the driver ask did I mind if he turn off the meter? I replied I prefer he kept it on. He said where I was going would be cheaper if the meter was off. I told him I did not have a problem w/the metered rate. So he kept insisting on turning off the meter. I told him never mind and got out of the taxi. I flagged another taxi - an honest driver who took me where I wanted to go. Upon arrival I looked at the meter and paid him double what was on the meter. He immediate said I was paying too much money. I said, no it is the correct rate. I told him what happened with the previous taxi. As I was exiting his taxi I told him, because he was honest and did NOT try to scam me like the other taxi, I am paying him the his [the metered rate] fair and the fair of the other taxi because honesty does pay. Have a good day sir! He was stunned.
Weeks before my trip I did some research and learned of this meter scam so when it started to go down I know what was happening. At that time this scam was largely perpetuated by the taxis in Manila. I see it has spread and become more common in Cebu now.
@@TheWallReports That’s nice, I often do the same with trike drivers. It’s worth it just to see their happy surprised reactions.
Hi Rubeauti, I am a new subscriber.... from the United States... I've been watching some of your videos and really enjoying the information that you are sharing. thanks😉👍🏽

Everything that you have said is 100% right as always your information is very helpful keep up the good work. You look good as usual.
Another Fantastic Video!!! I did learn alot of this During 4 months of Research!! And alot of videos about Taxi's!!
Thank you for posting Rubeauti. I am going to visit Davao in 2024 for an extended period and this will help me ascertain if the Philippines is for me. My Filipina friends from work tell me that this would be the best city for me given my personality. I very much appreciate your work.
Wonderful video and very informative. Thank you for all of your insight into the good and bad. I hope your fellow filipinos and Filipinas see your insight as constructive, and understand we all nomatter where we live have room for improvement. Rebeauti, you have a great way to project your thoughts and I feel one of the best at describing real life in the Philippines. Thank you for all you do and your hard work. Take care and as always cherish the moments ✌
There's an old saying, people can either are or break a place. And no matter where I go people are all the same. No different. No matter what the culture is.
@@williamknopic7915 , kidney stones 😭🔴🍖🐟900% 👇🔻🔺. Actual pictures 😲 czcams.com/video/t-bgmubOUfI/video.html .
Great vídeo. Very informative. I want to see Taguig now. Thank you.
Thanks for the video 😘
Nice video, thank you.🙂
Thank you for sharing the facts regarding your beautiful country. 💯
Great video, very informative. After living in the PH for a couple of years, I would say the pros greatly outweigh the negatives. But it does require a lot patience. 🙂
How many countries you have to compare it to? It's a pretty worthless opinion if you only know PH and your home country
Rubeauti listening to your negatives has reinforced my desire to live in a province area when I retire to the Philippines. Thankfully I am still in good health and have never smoked so I see smoking bans as a positive not a negative. I have ridden motorbikes all of my life so I believe owning a motorbike in the province will be ok and you said there are less corrupt traffic officers in the provinces 🙂. I have been looking at long term rentals and they are so cheap in the province that I would not need to buy property. In terms of longer visits before deciding to live there my plan is to do 3 month visits to different areas before deciding which one to settle in. Thank you so much for being honest about the downsides of living in PI but I still believe that the people and culture make it a very desirable retirement destination with a SRRV. God Bless.
Hi Rubeauti 😊
I am a new subscriber to your site and enjoy the informative advice on different subjects. 👍🏻.
I have been to the PI 3 times and enjoyed it very much. I am also another foreigner thinking about retiring there.😎
Have you covered the subject of costs and pros and cons on renting long-term or buying? Also the best location to live taking into consideration of temperatures, typhoons and overall personal safety?
Keep up the good work.
Take care and stay safe.😁.
Hi Rubeauti😊Thankyou for the information and things to watch out for in the Philippines, all sorts of scams everywhere and gold mines to watch out for... 😦Yikes !...I will remember all your warnings👍... Great job and your outfit looks cute...😍
Very good points are covered in this video. Excellent stuff. BTW, maybe do a sound check first before starting to properly record as the sound here was not the greatest and was distracting at times. I hope this helps. All the best :)
Yes, something was in the background noise level that caused me to pause the video several times. I kept thinking that I had a fan making noise, almost sounded like the ringing in my ears.
Great information. So sorry you had kidney stones very painful. Thanks for sharing
Beautiful Rubeauti! So sorry you had kidney stones.. I have had them too, but I ran into a medical doctor and pilot who helped me greatly with this news... eat asparagus every three days to dissolve the stones. It has worked fir me ever since. I love you and don't want you to ever suffer so greatly again! ; )
yea, we have the same trouble with "gold mines" in Berlin :) Thx 4 sharing!
Great Video Thanks !
Thanks for the knowledge ❤
thank you for the great advice 😍
Great video, very informative.
Thank You Again Rubeuti, I can't do Manila, Cebu area is drawing me, it's centrally located and I'm looking forward to retiring to.PH
Keep up the great work and looking forward to your next Vlog
Excellent video. Thank you 👍
It was my pleasure to share this with you! Thank you for taking the time to watch and appreciate it.
Great video. Some sober discussion of the issues in your country. Who would voluntarily want to deal with that traffic stress regardless if you are a driver or pedestrian or just have to get somewhere? It seems like people are forgetting it's still a developing country. To me a reasonably working infrastructure is important, a clean environment, and a climate where I don't need constant showers due to excessive sweating. Those typhoons are also destructive and unpredictable. It's not for the faint of heart. The corruption would be very hard to tolerate as well for someone who has not had to deal with that their whole life.
Another interesting topic. But I just love seeing you.
I love listening and learning from you about your country
Thank you gave a lot good information helpful as from would need to know ❤thanks
You really helping people with your Chanel giving some good insights. I would consider moving there I like simple living and honest down to earth people so thank you.
You Gave a LOT Of Great Information @Rubeauti. Thanks 🙏🏾For The Upload My Friend, I Do Plan On Coming for a Three Weeks Visit in April 2023. Shalom
I totally agree with your advice at the end there about staying for a longer period before deciding to move there permanently, that's good advice regardless of where you're thinking of retiring to. I know this was a list of negative things but as a non-smoker one of the things mentioned is a definite plus to me 😁
likewise on the smoking ban enforcement .. a HUGE plus for me as well !!
Great info. Thanks
Outstanding... Thank you!!!!🧡💙💛💚❤
Nice to watch you walking on the walk way ;-)
Very good information
This gives me something to think about. I'm not an older guy, but I'll be making my way to the Philippines soon!
Spot on Ate 🙏🏽
Your episodes are always so informative and you are always so Gwapa !!!!
I subscribed 😃 … I enjoy the content u produce its relevant and quite helpful .. I think I will take your advise when I return. hopefully when Covid mandates are relaxed …. Head for the provinces
@@Rubeauti
Ohhh I just “got” what you mentioned about gold mines lol 😂 …. 💩 I was thinking about gold diggers doh 😖 and though huh?….
I follow you I look at your videos you're very smart and cool I appreciate what you doing and I will continue on your journey following your information
Good video! Lots of traffic jams. I try to stay off the road during busy hours but it sounds crazy in Manila with this problem. Midnight till 5am is deserted on the road in my city. That's when I can travel quicker.
Omg I am absolutely thrilled . No smoking !!! Thank
G-d!!!!!!!
Thank you for telling the truth about PI. I see a lot of CZcamsrs that paint a rosy picture of PI not being honest. Keep up the good work.
Good video good advice i am scared of the airport taxis
I want my change back too.....it is my choice to tip or not to tip.....good job. Ken
good job thanks!
Thanks Rubeauti. Enjoy your videos….interesting…..nice smile.
I have to agree with you on drivers. Years ago I drove my motorcycle from Subic Bay to the American Embassy in Manila. I was cut off like you except by a jeepney. I was forced on to the sidewalk or would of been knockdown like you. Surprising the sidewalk went down a bunch of stairs. I am glad there was no one on the sidewalk at the time. I finally got back on the road and the person I was riding with thought I was doing trick driving or showing off. He didn't realize I was doing that to save a motorcycle crash with injuries. I laughed. but was so scared at the time. Lol
Hi Rubeauti. Yes, there are negatives but think the positives outweigh the negatives. It's always a good idea to have health insurance when you are in another country. By the way, it's very hot here as well. 46C today.
Thank you for sharing. You are a very nice lady.
Stunning
Hi Rubeauti - I just subscribed to your channel! I will have to catch up on your other videos!!! Great topic for a video and nice of you to point out the bad as well as the good. I like your video format - it is straightforward and well thought out - I can see why you have so many subscribers in such a short amount of time. I will be viewing your channel as I plan to possibly retire there in the future!! I like your name - is that a traditional Filipina name, I have never seen it before? Does it mean "Beautiful Filipina"? Always take care there and good luck with your channel!!😃😃😃 Oh - I will also always let the ads play during your video to help out your channel!😉 Also you can get stones from too much Calcium in your diet - are you eating a lot of foods high in Calcium or taking vitamins?
Excellent informational vlog, I've experienced most of what you say apart from typhoons!! Yes PH does have it's downsides, where doesn't? But it's major saving grace is the people of PH, even in the worst of times they are resillient, always a smile and always willing to help where they can. I'll be retiring to PH end 2024, already bought the land to build our house (in my future wifes name of course 🤣🤣) a little place called Concepcion in Tarlac 😁one thing you forgot to mention was the dammed mosquitos 🤣🤣
I Love The Philippine. Been going back And Forward since 2000. People are Beautiful. I never have any problems. Because I know People’s. Philippine & Japan My Two Country I Been visiting.
United States , My Home , My Family Here. But I Always Visit Baguio City Every Year. Stay 3-4 Months at a time. Philippine is Beautiful Relaxing.😎 Ya Continue Too Stay Safe. Stay Strong...
thank you for the information
Thank you. That was very helpful. i am thinking about living in your country.
Thanks for your honesty
Yeah, driving in the Phils is hectic...you look gorgeous by the way ; )
You are a beautiful woman. You have much knowledge and it is very helpful.
Miss Rubeati,
Thank you for sharing your experience, an eye opener for many..
Q: have you considered moving to middle size city?? I was in Dumaguete and except for the traffic I loved it there..you are correct, no traffic lights, no stop signs, it is actually amazing more accidents don't happen...I was in Dumaguete last month, and as bad luck happens, I landed in the emergency room on my first day arriving to the Philippines...I stayed at the Rovira Hotel, which I give it 4 stars, was excellent, room service was great, and so was the food..I order food to my room or by the pool all day...anyway, since my medical emergency happened late after 10pm, there were no taxis in the area so the front desk called the ambulance for me...the ride to the hospital was free, though I tipped them for the ride...I don't recall the name of the hospital, CDC I think?? but was told it was a private hospital so there were only a few people waiting ahead of me..I was seen within 20 minutes of arrival and was not asked to pay in advance..the cost was about $120.00 US and was seen by a doctor not a nurse..after I was attended, still no taxis, was after midnight so the ambulance gave me a ride to the hotel..ha,ha,ha..
In Dumaguete there isn't much trash, city is fairly clean...it rains about 3 times per week but usually short periods...the longer lasting rain typically happens at night...after 3 weeks there I became acclimated didn't feel so bad..for city travel I used trikes so the cost was about 40 pesos almost anywhere in town..
I also read that Dumaguete is considered one of the top 5 destinations in the world to retire..
3 weeks later I went to the same hospital for a follow-up and received good treatment by the same doctor..
On 2 occasions the taxi drivers tried to charge me a lot more so I passed on their service and waited on a trike instead...as an investor I've earned enough money where I'm not worried about cost, but don't like it when people want to take advantage of me simple bc I'm a foreigner.....thank you again for sharing your experience with us..
I'm a huge fan of your vlogs..
May the Lord bless and protect you, as I can sense your kind heart..
Duma medical is a joke. I don't even want to waste my time explaining why. Try having an accident there and see what happens. I know too much about it all.
Cebu, manila or Baguio... Anywhere else you're gambling with your life
Why not cut to the chase and ask her to be with you?
@@danielcox1537 😁
Danail.. she would be awesome to be in a relationship with. She is smart and very beautiful.
@@robertmoore1123 She has never disclosed she's available...but agree...Miss Rubeati is the complete package...intelligent, pretty, and sexy....
Yep, another really important video to watch.
Very informative
Watching po maam with paharang, thank you for your shared,
Thank you I like what you share
Thank you for this video. It is informative, well organized, and funny. You have a nice voice for videos. Clear. Easily heard. Good enunciation. Deeper tone. ..... BUSINESS / LAND LAWS : Yes! Foreign owners of a business originating in the Philippines may own a maximum of 60% of the organization and profits, but never its real estate. However, foreigners can own 100% of a foreign company but with limitations. Considering your history with mainland Asians, Europeans, and perhaps some Americans, this is not a bad idea.
Lovely woman clear concise English and good content.
Some very good advice you give. My wife and I have a house out in the province but as I get close to the retirement age we're going to buy a condo in Manila to be near the better hospitals, hopefully never needing to use them. Pollution is a problem and so is dogs roaming around. You are right about the natural disasters, very worrisome . I have been there seven times but never more than 16 days, I'm going to start building up more more more time to see if I can take the Philippines all year round, that's why I'm keeping a small condo in America.
thank you for another excellent informative helpful vlog .. i think for a great great many of us you could/should include the smoking ban enforcement as a positive .. a MAJOR positive .. not a negative :)
Goid job on the video thanks
Hi Rubeauti. You are a very intelligent woman and speak English perfectly. You provided very useful information. Thank you. I hope to meet a woman like you there in the future. I am a Canadian living in Japan and am considering moving to the Philippines 🇵🇭.
In regards to your comments about health insurance and treatment in the Philippines, another CZcamsr named The Filipina Pea did an interview with an insurance agent in either Dumagetti or Cebu. He stated that the best health insurance that you can get in the Philippines is Pacific Cross and the annual cost is between $12K and $15K. He also listed some of the benefits and that it is accepted in most hospitals in the Philippines and worldwide. BTW I just recently found your channel and so am a new subscriber. Great job.
I agree with the medical problem sissy koi , the medical system is very bad pay first before something, planning financially , living by your means is the best thing ,Good job , very good in English.
THANK YOU!!!
Leptospirosis is rare here in the states, and most cases will present as the flu, but my brother contracted this disease and it almost killed him. It screwed up a valve in his heart and shut down his liver and kidneys. Specialists finally figured out what it was and gave him medication and he got better.
You do a very good video 😊
Best regards from Catalonia-Spain.
When it rains, I stay home or if I need to go somewhere I catch a trike and carry an umbrella. I also wear vinyl shoes to protect my feet from all the street bacteria. Don't want to catch a staphylococcus infection on my skin.
Thanks!
