United States: Moving Back to the Philippines:
I was born in the Manila, Philippines and I have worked in Hong Kong for many years. In 1993, I came to USA as a TOURIST and stayed for 10 months. I didnt think it was the right time for me to live in the US and so I applied for a job with another airline and so I was based in Jeddah. I went back to Hong Kong and I loved it. But needed to go back to MANILA in 2000 (got scared of theMillenium) But I thought, being a single woman, and I went back to the University for more schooling, and led a life on my own, and the village/subdivision where I have some properties were have neighbors who were not used to seeing single female on their own. There was a time that someoen broke into my house, and the tenants who lived in my units have thought they can push me around. I still stayed, until I can not take it anymore, so I went back to hong Kong. I opened a bar and there, I could still go back to Manila every time I need to take care of repairs and maintenance of my properties. I make sure they are well maintained. I love to have foreigner tenants who can pay on time like retired US military people.. I went back to USA because I had a family petition to be an immigrant. I brought everything. I am still keeping my HKG residence . To do that, I fly to ASIA every year. Git married to my loving and very kind husband but he passed away of heart attack and I am thinking of going back to live in MANILA. Last time I was there in Cebu and Manila,. traffic was terrible~!!!! I have to take care of the rental units.(the townhouse is now available for rental if anyone is interested?). :) And hope that things will work out good. Can live both Hong Kong and Manila...(or maybe other parts of the Philippines..?). Dont know yet. I would always complain whilst in Manila..So I wonder if I have to go ahead with my plan of leaving the US.. maybe just have a few weeks/months of vacation here now and again.. I am very international in my ways so I dont know if being in Manila, I will find it really a comfort and be understood. Hmm.. I have a lot of friends in Hong Kong, and that is my only consolation. Manila is cheaper than Hong Kong. Lets see....Have to plan.
