Greetings from the Philippines

[Pototan]

I looked at some of the posts here, but many replies and posts are months or years ago, so I was reluctant to post. But anyway, here goes.

I moved to the Philippines with my Filipina wife two years ago. I'm 71 and she's 68. We're both retired. Her family owns a prime piece of land (25 acres) in a rural suburb of Iloilo City. It's beautiful. We spent about 8 years and $250 K USD building a house on the land with her other siblings. It's great here.

I spend about 50 weeks in Iloilo and 2 weeks back in Boston. I have a guest room in my Neice's house, which I used to own, but sold to her and her husband 2 years ago.
