    If you attach velcro to a shower curtain you can put it over the windows for aircon, but you can remove it easily. Saves on Electric.

    I saw your vagabond awake interview, son i head on to see your channel, becuase you talked about your time in Mexico, i had being there in Mexico City, for a hyperbaric chamber treatment, of a vascular ulcer on my left ankle, becuase the us health insurance did not cover such a procedure, thank the good lord i'm cure from this ulcer, and you really spend your money properly over there, with some many places you can eat on the cheap, i don't know how is your place in Siquijor, as far as medical, centers, but it is a nice affordable place according to the interview, less than a $1000 a month, and you are not struggling nor suffering as other vloggers imply if you are not spending more than $1,500 a month over there, you can make it, just don't go around spending what you can't afford!!

    • @robertcamp6623
      @robertcamp6623  Рік тому +1

      Yes if you stay on budget. It is very affordable. Medical care here is cheap. Pacific life health insurance is the best. Prescriptions are cheap, and a basic vist to the docter is about $20. Siquijor doesn't have as many social places to go. I was lucky because i know a lot of people before i came to live here. Dan and Qiang were such a nice couple. I enjoyed spending time with them

    Definitely has all the essentials for a comfortable residence. You live on such a beautiful island paradise. The Philipines offers a fantastic opportunity to live a simple life at affordable prices. The people are also wonderfull there. I hope to visit Siquijor this winter. It would be nice to meet up for lunch and get some pointers from you to more fully enjoy my trip.

    Very nice Robert ! -- You can be quite proud and content there. The little things you added made it yours & it appears quite sufficient. The price is a bargain by American standards and yet I'm sure she is satisfied with that amount. -- I saw your video with Dan and heard you make it on $600 most often with an occasional $800 ? Saving the rest is very wise ! - - - I'm looking myself for a similar arrangement over there - somewhere. I struggle with heat so I'm looking @ Tagaytay at the 2000 ft. + elevation an hour or so S. of the airport in Manila. Cost may be a bit higher but I have $1500 to work with. Google says 'a couple' can live their comfortably for $1000 / month in 2023 prices. I'm alone and not looking for expensive company ! - - - May eventually make a trip to Dumaguete to visit a couple U-Tubers. If so I may visit your island for a few days & get in touch.
    All the best ---- I love your attitude and gratitude. Be well - live long & prosper.

      That would be tough. You would need to have some savings in the bank. You could do it in the province, but it would be very hard.

    A fantastic place Robert ! --- Ideal & couldn't ask for more ? --- 9K P is a bargain for that - and in 2024 (as of when I'm watching) = $156.98. - - - I'm finding a smaller place about half that size - unfurnished - for 3500 P / mo. - brand new ! I'll need about $2,000 to furnish it to my liking..... flush toilet - hot water - fridge - mw - stove - ac - bed - table/chairs...... and I'll be a - '''happy camper''' - too !!! An hour S of Manila airport - in Trace Martires. My budget will allow me to travel - '''somewhere''' - every month (!) - using this as a home base. May come visit 'you' - once established ! > Take care.

    Hi Robert, I also saw the Vagabond interview. I'm living in Valencia Dumaguete. I'll be in Siquijor on tuesday, been twice since I arrive in the Philippines in April. I'm coming for 2 months and have organised my first month. I'm seriously thinking of relocating to that Paliton San Juan area. I'm wondering if u could help find a place around the 10k range. I'll make a point to get to JJs next Friday night for a chat and a beer or 2. Cheers, Ray
