    We totally understand your situation. We decided to live in Switzerland instead of in the Philippines because the salaries are much higher in Switzerland. We miss the Philippines too, our family there, but we can support all people better from here and go back for holidays. Sending love and hugs to your family, Susanne and Ariel

    My family experienced the same exact thing, we moved to the Philippines to start fresh but circumstances brought us back to the US. We wanted to stay in the Philippines for good but it didn’t work out. The Lord will call us to the place where we need to be. You guys are amazing! I think your strong faith and willingness to follow whatever the Lord commands you to do is just incredibly motivating and inspiring! You are called to do something here in the US just keep trusting in Him. ❤❤❤

    If anything, the best part of living in the Philippines was that it may have answered all the “what if’s” that you have had before you made the decision. Now that all of those ‘what if’s’ have been answered, you can move on to the next phase of your lives with greater clarity and vision. Hoping for the best for y’all! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

    Sa unang impression ko pa lang sa inyo noon ay tama ako. Hindi kayo makakatagal ng pagtira dito sa Pilipinas. Ang desisyon nyo na pabigla bigla dahil akala nyo na makaka survive kayo financially sa pag yu utube ay sa expectation nyo lang. Minsan hit or miss lang din ang malaking kita/salary sa vlogging. Kasi it needs a lot of hard work din talaga. Minsan successful..minsan failure. Good luck.

    • @yolandelyle
      @yolandelyle 8 місяців тому +2

      @ungasis589 I totally 👍 agree with you. This happens to many individuals. My husband is Filippino and I am a foreign woman. Living in the Philippines is different compare to coming here on holiday! It's a different type of " ball game". Both my husband and I had travelled a lot before we even met and got married! And we also lived in Europe and Philippines. My husband gave me a heads up, on exactly how the way of life is in the Phils. Nobody knows about the life in Phil's more better than a Filippino! And yes one needs to accept it for what it is! It helps when you keep your home, so that when you return you already have a place to live in. If not,........it's hard because it is starting all over again from scratch,from the beginning. Hopefully Laura can get herself busy with work,or some studies. And John get back to his work! All the best for the Half Asian Adventure.

It was so hard to come back. But on the other hand, we were ready to get back to work and my stepdaughter is a second year student body officer in her 8th grade school up here in Roy Utah.

    The US offers lots of federal and state safety net programs including food stamps, free education and school meals, free or reduced health insurance, subsidized housing, unemployment money etc. The YT market is a fickle source of income, some resort to "click bait" titles, constant video recording and editing required to sustain a viable and engaged audience. It works for some, and others...well, reality sets in.
