Let's find out what Americans think of others - and themselves! I've been interviewing a whole bunch of people in five different states, and asking them about their level of satisfaction with their lives and their country - and about their impressions of other nations! Their answers were often thoughtful, often funny, but always surprising! Join me as I mingle with the citizens, and find out what Americans actually think of themselves and others!

i love my Country... wonderful opportunities if you apply yourself, the chance for entrepreneurial enterprises is amazing.. diverse nation of people and geography, some fantastic natural parks.
we have real issues on politics, and the ability to just talk, civilly, about things you disagree on, has escalated immensely since 2007 or so..
not sure when we get over this, wont be anytime soon..
i actually think we are more welcoming to foreigners than to each other, when it becomes "Progressive vs Conservative" in almost every scenario. we know foreigners dont vote,.. lol.. and are only interested in hearing about their country, their family history, etc. I think Americans are very curious about other cultures, with so many represented here.
love this Vid Ms Pea... very interesting to hear some peoples answers.. as someone who has lived all over the country, and from tiny towns of 1400 people, to cities of 2 million, out in the country, or inside the city..ive met a huge variety of personality thats driven by location more than anything..
I wish you had added where you were as you interviewed these folks. I was shocked by the one guy rating his happiness as only a 6 because he is in construction. I spent most of my working life ( now 68 ) in construction. For me it was always enriching to be able to look back at the end of the day and say, "awesome, look what I did today !".
@@dallasarnold8615 I think the young man was rating his job, not country. I worked in construction when I was young, building houses. I always liked framing because you could see the results daily.
@@matthewgraham2546 Matthew, that was supposed to be his rating on how happy he is, not his job or country.
@@dallasarnold8615 I stand corrected, thanks for your reply.
I'm guessing many, many Americans don't realize how good we have it here because they never have traveled outside of the US.
That’s definitely true in many cases, I suspect 😊👍
Yeah, both positives and negatives
I'm 34 and people my age and younger think it's hip to complain. They never had to struggle so they don't know any better.
as the comedian fluffy put it - after you travel in developing countries - when you come back, you will appreciate what you have (i'm paraphrasing ofcourse). People like me who came from developing countries certainly know this.
I’m well traveled because I was in the Navy. People here don’t know how good they have it. I wonder if the people who would rather live in Norway would like paying 60% income tax and high sales tax on everything?
You are a "natural cultural anthropologist." Its amazing how well you put strangers at ease when asking them tough questions.
Brilliant! Not just a sightseeing tourist feeding us pictures we could find on a postcard, but really interacting with the locals! loved it! You're the BEST Pea!
THANKS, Harold! That’s exactly what I’m trying to do - avoid the tourist stuff for the most part, and bring you the scoop about the ‘real America’ 👍👍❤️
I love how Pea just ambushes people and gets all up in their business. She's the best!!
It’s my specialty 🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea You do a great job I enjoy your interviews retired here in Cebu hope to see you live in action someday. Have a safe trip when you return to the Phils.
Well said!!
The Pea is my favorite UA-cam personality. Whenever I'm a bit down I watch her video's. Its the kindness, professional production, creativity, hard work, laugh that has me rooting for her. She inspired me to research the Phillipines and decide to go. I hope she never changes.
That’s so nice to hear, Chimp! I really do always try my hardest 👍❤️
No disrespect to Mrs Pea because your right she is all those things but if you go to the Philippines you will see most of them are very kind and welcoming. I’ve never met a filipino person I didn’t end up liking. I will say one thing most Filipinos I’ve met are more laid back and don’t seem to be hard working like Pea.
Yeah, she’s been very helpful for me traveling abroad very good tips
Pea, you never disappoint with the subject matter of your videos. You're a treasure for us all!
Thanks Gary! I do try as hard as I can to make ‘different’ videos 👍👍❤️
Pea, I hope I can visit The Philippines someday soon! Maybe meet The Phillpina Pea!
You always put so much effort into each video that you do.
This one was a surprising amount of work, yes! Just the editing took two full days 😳👍
Really interesting answers! Especially the guy with Filipina ancestry, he sees things clearly! Love the nordic vibes, I'm half Viking, half Celt so I love the Scandinavian countries too! Excellent episode lovely Pea! 🙏🏻❤🥰
Yes the half-Filipino guy was quite interesting 👍👍
Ohh, he was brilliant. A mastermind 😊👌🇩🇰
It’s almost like seeing things clearly is a gift we get on this channel 😂
That video made my day Pea. You're so natural at doing interviews.
I'm from Michigan and was surprised at how we northerners are considered so impatient. .....true BTW 😅
Ahhhh, so it’s true! 🤣🤣🤣
Yup it's true, it's please get to the point and stop being so nice.
@TheFilipinaPea I'm from New Jersey originally. I have to admit I am kind of direct and to the point quickly. You had to be and survive. If you couldn't come back they would steam roll you in NJ. Similar to NYC. It's funny though, I never picked up the NJ NY accent. The rest of my family had it but not me.
I feel most people from California are get to the point type people too. Most will hold a door for someone though. Not sure if where north or south, more just west.
Interesting video Miss Pea. I travelled all over Asia as a young man. I lived in the Philippines for a year and Japan for two years. Probably the best years of my life. I love the US but maybe because I am older I think our best years are behind us but I still love it here.
IDK some of our younger generation are quite exceptional.
You think the best years of the country are behind it? Then I’ll need to move here and fix that 🤣🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea please do but the Philippines won’t be the same without you.
@@TheFilipinaPea I think that is true. A lot of crime and drugs are affecting our cities and drugs are destroying lives out in the country.
The guy with your longest interview came close to connecting 2 really related points (IMO). Technologies (and other factors) has led to a decrease in neighborly “face-to-face” social interaction and increase in “on-line” tribalism. It is simply human nature to want to belong. But since we no longer have to interface with our neighbors as much at church, the store, etc., we simply do not feel we need to get along. Instead, we know we can find “friends” that reaffirm our beliefs instead of question our facts. To answer your question, what I would change is tribalism. As the world’s biggest experiment in creating a “melting pot”, we cannot afford it. Anyway….I’m still crushing on Captain Pea ❤🧡❤! LOL
Yes, I think he was right about that - it’s no longer about being neighbors, it’s about what ‘team’ you’re on 😳👍
Well said.
Oh, by crushing I meant "have a crush", not any newer meaning of the phrase. @@TheFilipinaPea
I had a good life in Beverly Hills California, but overall happiness factor was about between 6-7. I moved a year and a half ago to Thailand, and I am now at a 9 happiness level, because of tropical weather, friendly people, and a amazing culture. But to each his own.
Hi Pea! Very entertaining video. You have a knack with making people feel comfortable.
I usually get people to talk to me, almost every time 🤣👍
HI PEA
...and always let the ads play
John! Thanks so much for being such a loyal friend 👍❤️❤️👍
Super video Pea, you got it perfectly for your interviews and questions. I’m originally from Colorado specifically, and I’ve seen a lot of changes over the last 60+ years. The perspective of each person is different and polarized, and the changes over the years of divisiveness is very destructive for a country to live in even in the land of opportunity and abundance. Your interview with the gentleman from the south with the FiIpina mom was dead on with everything lol
He was well-spoken, yes 👍👍
Colorado is in the Midwest?
No, it is in the West. Midwest stops at Missouri LOL
Im in denver....colorado is NOT the midwest
I actually really liked that guy he seemed chill and if he wants a friend I’ve been looking for one in my 6-7 life too!
Pea, you just get better and better with the best to come. Great interviews. 🤗
Thanks JT! I really appreciate that 👍❤️
It's been a pretty awesome and yet different flare of an interview pea
From the extrange lady getting close during the interview to the happy birthday 🎂 wish 🤞 its been awesome 👌
That happy birthday tugboat surprised the heck out of me! I had no idea there was something that big right behind me 🤣
Hello Pea my name is Cedric. Thank you for all the videos. Thank you for your honesty. We love you videos. Have a great week keep the videos coming.
Good morning, Cedric - and thanks!! 👍👍
@@TheFilipinaPea Pea I have a question for you. I had a stroke about three-and-a-half years ago and I met I met someone online the Philippines. What day do they have a a lot of things that can help me if I decide to move over there.
The Pea never fails to inform and entertain.
Thank you Pea for another wonderful video. Much love and respect to you for all that you do and all that you are about. ❤ I pray that you be blessed with safe travels. 🙏
Great video Pea! Or should I say, ANOTHER great video 😉 America is a big place but I think your observations would ring true no matter where you are here. I really appreciate you taking the time to ask people what their thoughts are. What interested me the most was "divisiveness" being a (relatively) common reason why the satisfaction scores were so low - and I think that is entirely valid. All you have to do is to look at our news and see that in full effect. Anyway...looking forward to your next installment!
Yay ! My day just brightened up ❤ the Philippina Pea has a new video out 😊
I wish everyone looked forward to them like you do 🤣👍
@TheFilipinaPea I certainly do😊. I wake up just after 7am and rush to my phone
@@TheFilipinaPea lol true
Our politicians & social media make most of our woes here. People in general get along as long as corps & politicians stay out of it.... great episode. Gonna have to check the Phillipines out soon. I like experiencing other cultures.
Check us out, and give us your comparisons! 👍👍😊
Hey, welcome to America Pea!
It’s been a blast! 👍👍👍
A+ content, great bubbly personality and great questions. I hope to visit Philippines the people seem very kind. America is hostile and shallow but I live around the City area.
I really enjoyed this video and all the different points of view. Great job as usual Pea, bravo!
As someone who lived outside of Chicago for many years and moved to the south, people pretty much nailed the differences. When you get older you want to slow down and southern life fits the bill. Pea is fun to watch 🎉
It’s so strange for me to hear how the southern lifestyle is slower - to me, it’s super fast compared to what I know 🤣🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea That's another good reason for me to check out the Philippines!
Rhynestone Cowboy??
@@EvralTatum-Mcfield-ov2mi it's easy to toss around slurs over a keyboard, only the gutless guys do it. I live around Las Cruces area, come say hello sometime.
Political parties was one of George Washingtons warnings. He wasn't in favor of them.
Interesting! I never knew that 😳👍
"However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion."

Great Questions Pea! I really enjoy your videos!
Excellent job Pea! Thanks ❤
Wow, Pea, some great insights, especially the dicatomy between north and south! Also, people's fascination with Scandinavia! ❤
The Scandinavia thing was very surprising to me too! 🥺👍
@@TheFilipinaPea And no mention of the Mason/Dixon line or that the 'South will rise again'! LOL
@@Niftynorm1 The slaves went north and the carpetbagges came south and with poor geography education, who knows were the Mason/Dision line is/was these days. "The South" may have become this multifaceted nebulous place. And may always have been, as many places are.
Plus, Pea may have not talked to any "southerners". They may be back in the woods LOL.
But that may be America, pick the culture bits you like and discard the ones you don't. The golden rule should apply anyway.
Very interesting video, well done. Then all the nice people live in Canada and many would choose Norway as a great place to live. I am Norwegian and live in Spain, but I would say that Norway is cold, expensive, and unfriendly.
Cold, expensive, and unfriendly? Then I guess the grass really is greener on the other side! Everyone wants to be somewhere else🤣🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea maybe PH once... but only because women, friendly people, sea, nature... But your snakes are freaking scary!! (we have nothing like this in central EU) And it seems to be little bit too windy time to time.
I have lived all over the world including 8 years constant in the Philippines. If I had to pick a country no cost involved it would be a toss up between Sicily or southern coastal Spain. I have lived in both and love the Warm sunny climates with genuinely warm friendly people. They are clean and well kept which is something I find distressing in Thailand and the Philippines where people don't seem to have much pride in how their country looks.
@@JDWard-Jeepster I live in Costa del Sol near Malaga. There are four in the family and our monthly budget is at the same level as the Philippines but no unexpected cost here since they don`t ask to see my wallet if we go to the hospital. By the way, I am covered through Norway for me and my family so health care is free here. Google some UA-cam videos from Malaga, Torrox costa, Nerja and you will see how clean and beautiful it is here. Mountains on one side and the sea on the other side🙂
@@skaidimusic When I lived in Southern Spain it was in Cadiz. So yes Andalusia is a very nice part of the world ☺️.
Thanks for sharing, Pea.
Great video Pea, very interesting 😀
I spent two weeks on Okinawa back in May. I had such a wonderful time I can't wait to go back for a visit. I believe the Japanese are friendly. Thanks for your videos they are great.
I heard the culture is polite but much like the south things are like that so you leave us alone
I hope your time in my country has been enjoyable Pea, always like to watch your videos. Ive been in a relationship for over 2 years with a filipina that works overseas in Singapore and with take my second visit there in Dec. and also spent a month in the Philippines with her. I cant wait for her contract to be over so we can settle down over there and make memories together
So you’re planning to stay in the Philippines? I hope you like it 👍👍❤️❤️👍👍
Great video. Amazing Miss Pea has done it again!
My favorite Tuesday and Friday UA-cam person. 😁👍❤️
Paul! Happy to see you! 👍👍
Miss Pea is my favorite UA-camr she's well educated, doesn't seem bashful ,and a joy to watch
And yet I’m actually an introvert 🤣🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea me yo unless put in a situation where I have to be social for a short period
@@TheFilipinaPea But introverts tend to be more introspective, which may give you a personal balance to the people you talk to and the questions you ask. Maybe that is why people will talk to you as you care about their answers.
Sad to see you have to go home soon,😪 but that gives us reason to go there.😁
It will be interesting if you see the Philippines a little differently, at least for a while, when you go home.
Fascinating vlog, Pea. I never appreciated the difference between northern and southern Americans. Being a Jamaican living in the UK, I get the phase "manners maketh the man (and woman). I guess that northern folks are keenly aware that time is their only non-renewable resource. Horses for courses, I guess. Thanks again, Pea
‘Time is the only non-renewable resource’
Yes, that’s something most Filipinos don’t get 🤣🤣👍
I still tear up thinking about my home in Texas. The city of Houston took my Mexican immigrant family in and took care of them. I was so grateful for the opportunities given to me, and the faith community that took care of my family there that I enlisted into the USMC out of the love and gratitude in my heart for my city. Dios bendiga! From a Texan! P.S of course a northerner would attribute ulterior motives to the culture in the South! Because that’s how they were programmed, to not comprehend a community-based culture of faith!
Just randomly meeting a Filipino in the USA, how awesome 😄
Absolutely love your channel and it's been so fun watching you travel through the US. One critique though, sometimes in the videos the mics are over driven, gain to high or something. :) Keep up the great content!
Yes, I noticed that too - I’m just not sure what to do about it 😳
When I set the mic to a certain volume before an interview, I have to guess the amount of background noise and also how how the people will talk. It’s a never ending battle 🤣🤣
@@TheFilipinaPea 1. probably only fixable by live check - cameraman/woman should use some monitor closed construction headphones. So she can adjust settings. Some sound studio equipment store would be best for advice. Or some sound master guy.
2. from physics point of 'hearing' the type of mics you are using (most Phils youtubers :D - maybe others too, but I am mostly focused there - thanks to you ;-) ) are most suitable to studio environment. And are very heavy too - so it moves and make terrible noise if person moves. That's why they use separate radio/battery part clipped on their backs and very light cable mic part clipped to t-shirt (but ordinary little bit more down on chest area rather than neck area) in TV studios. And for this reasons TV reporters ordinary use hand mics, because there is different type of sensor which is more directional and less sensitive to surrounding noises.
As per usual a witty and captivating show dear Pea!
For the Filipina who didn’t have the chance to go to the US of A , yet :
How do you find America?
Turn left at Greenland …
Once said Ringo Starr …
Or … America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilisation in between according to Oscar Wilde …
Only in America, Pea! 😂😘
😅💙👍
Pee I really enjoy this. Loved the question thing.
Every single video you make is like a spot of tea with your best friend, You make people open up Pea is the best!
Thank you for what you do.
Your social skill level as well as your intelligence level is Amazing.
Thanks for that, Marc!! ❤️❤️❤️
Brown shirt guy, no ring. You two seemed to "click!" Hope you two at least grabbed a coffee and exchanged contact info.
That was interesting. Out west nobody is happy. I know I was much happier in Florida than in California. I plan on moving back to Florida soon. But then again I might just move to the Philippines 🇵🇭. Have a beautiful day Pea, take care and God bless you 🙏 😊
We’re pretty happy in the Philippines! At least we think we are 🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea You sure seem happy there. I'm glad you're happy in the Philippines 🇵🇭
Very nice video Sweet Pea and funny too.
Another great video thanks for sharing 🤙🏽
I live in the North, and it's true, we can be a little impatient. If you have something to say, just get to the point. 🤣 I always enjoy your videos, and you never fail to make me laugh.
I'm quite happy to live in the US, but we do have our problems. Our public education system is crap. We can argue about why that is, or the right way to fix it, but there's no denying that it is failing us. You can get a good education, but you'd have to go outside the public education system, such as private schools, or as some do, home schooling. I also agree that we're a bit too divided, but I think that's more because of politicians and the media, not because we ourselves are so divided. I have a variety of friends, and we don't all agree on everything, politically or religiously, but we all get along just fine. We can count on one another when the need arises.
I'm not going to criticize most other countries, because none of us are perfect, and I don't know enough about their cultures to say much anyway. I wish I had the time and money to visit more places, but the only place I've been to outside the US is Indonesia. I really enjoyed it there. I loved the food, and everyone seemed nice, and it had some beautiful scenery.
Nobody says they're from "the North"... are you a spy
Hi Pea! This video shows some interesting views regarding my fellow US citizens 😄 I had no idea so many people wanted to live in Norway or Sweden. I guess its nice there. I bet its cold in the winter though👍 Personally, I am most happy around family regardless of the living situation😊 Family, for my wife and I, is in the US and the Philippines. Currently, our savings will go farther in the Philippines so we are planning to retire there. I have served this country along with 5 generations of my family. We are patriotic however, my wife and I are also very adventurous and we like going to different places. As a a US citizen, I have the privilege to explore and travel. So, we are taking advantage of it😂 Thanks for the insights, and its good you are having fun😊👍🤙
Take care, and have a good week😊
I’d be interested to know - is your wife patriotic like you? 😊
@@TheFilipinaPea Oh yes! Most definitely👍 She is the one that tends the American flag outside our house. Her Stateside family are all proud to be US citizens 🇺🇸 And, they are pround to be Filipinos 🇵🇭
Great interviews, Pea! You don't lead or load the questions like some reporters. I love looking at my country through your eyes.
Fascinating video Pea.
I love doing ‘different’ videos - thanks Chip! ❤️👍
The thing that I’m missing in America, is a wife and children. We are over worked and everything is way too expensive here. And as a man it feels like I have no future here. At least for what I want. That’s how I feel about the USA right now. It’s just a lonely place.
You sound like the last man I interviewed 🥺
@@TheFilipinaPea oh really. Well it’s good to know I’m now alone. Thank you for everything Pea!❤️
@@TheFilipinaPea lts a little true.
@@TheFilipinaPea this is why the Philippines has so many old and lonely men with an income.
1. This is basic principle of managing nations - tired people does not protest (if they have something to eat and somewhere to stay warm).
2. Modern 9 to 5 'slavery' is common all over 'modern' world. Another slavery is economical (so huge usage of credit cards (almost unknown in EU, where most people use debit cards), all life mortgages - very difficult to buy own home).
3. "way too expensive here" it could be personal, but in general US are on top in wealth and real wages. Also US and Canada consume most energy per person in the world. So basically US and Can. people are simply spoiled and have no idea, because live in own bubble and have no clue how people live in the rest of the world.
Hi Pea, interesting opinions - lots of the answers of what they thought of other countries seemed based on stereotypes although to be fair you did only give them one word. The guy who thought people from the UK are annoying because of the accent made me laugh - if he'd ever been here he might realise that there are many different accents in the UK just like there are in any country.
Yes, I remember hearing quite a few accents, with some being easier to understand than others (Welsh was often hard for me) 🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea Years ago I worked in a restaurant which happened to employ a couple of European ladies. One night our fry cook kept screwing up on gals orders and when she complained he said 'Well if you learned to speak English, there would be no problems". Fortunately a couple other waitresses restrained her from jumping over the steam table; she was English!
We are proud of you Pea.
That makes me very happy 🤣❤️👍
That was a really good show 👍 Loved it😊❤️
The young guy who was part Filipino was completely wrong about southerners. Being from the north he would think that because northerners have always looked down their nose at southerners.
not sure abt the guy, his beliefs and principles are very different. as a Filipino, im not connecting with anything he is saying to be honest.
He called us Aussies shady!
Wow, Pea! You've outdone yourself! This is truly an interesting video:)
Quite a range of different Americans, each with their own perspective.
BTW,Guatemala has been calculated to be the 4th happiest country worldwide!
4th happiest?? Well that sure is surprising 😳👍
I could write a book - "The Joy of Poverty!" It's a good lesson to learn to be happy with what you have - not sad about what you don't have!@@TheFilipinaPea
Fantastic video Pea, very enlightening especially as there still seems a divide between north and south in mannerism's, possibly politics also, thankyou for including my country in some of your interviews, and when are you back to the PI, if you want to say that is 🙃
Pea, you did it again, you shine girl you just shine so bright
8:27 That guy is completely wrong about the south being nice to you because they want you to go away.
Well I must admit that I never felt that anyone wanted me to go away 👍👍🤣
As a Canadian myself, I find the majority of the "kindness" in my country to be insincere. Please don't tell that to people living in the Philippines though, we want as many Filipinos/Filipinas here as we can have. 😄
Interesting! So you think it’s not genuine kindness? I’ll have to visit there and see what it feels like 👍😊
No offense but I have noticed a huge difference between Canadians and French Canadian.
I have been to Canada for a vacation and I was amazed at the cleanliness and friendliness.
But when I got to Montreal it was a a different story.
I am Canadian...and my "kindness" IS sincere....so, readers...note kindness is individual...not national...
@@TheFilipinaPea please visit Canada...we are more sincerely kind than noted... I have a Filipina "almost-fiancé" that would support this claim...
Another fantastic video miss pea quite a range of answers but fun to listen to thank you can't wait till Friday ❤🙏💋
Thanks Brett!! ❤️❤️❤️
Good one, Pea.. thank you!
Thanks Lane! 👍👍❤️
Great video Captain Pea Sparrow 🏴☠️😂❤
I think younger ppl don’t realise how good things are, partly due to inexperience, partly due to being told by news and media that the country is racist and full of nazis🤔🤷♂️ as an Australian I really like it here, we have other problems, and the stuff like healthcare here although it’s “free” it can be horrible sometimes because gov is running it, I think almost all problems are caused by gov in established countries, because govs answer to fix things is to tax or regulate it, and often they don’t actually know anything about the problems so the taxes don’t get used correctly or the bans do t solve the problems either 🤷♂️🍻
Australia is on my list to visit too 👍👍❤️
🇦🇺🇦🇺
@@TheFilipinaPea it’s a nice place, lots to see, but it’s a BIG place, like the same size as the whole USA so best to fly to a few places, Brisbane, Sydney Melbourne are the most common along the east coast, I’m near Adelaide, I’m not a fan of hot weather so want to visit and maybe move to Tasmania myself, but I have a daughter so it’s not really been possible until recently now she’s a bit older
OH Pea:
Great interviews! Interesting responses to your questions from your subjects. Its no surprise that the older generation's happiness levels are higher, and they are more content with the situations in the USA. They have seen and done way more than the young folks who for the most part just want everything now and free.
It's no shock what Americans said about Canada. We get a ton of American tourists around my area, and for the most part they love coming to Canada to get away from the constant stresses of their politically polarized way of life. They can relax while they are here, and feel a great deal safer because the only people that are actually allowed to carry a gun on them is the police. Yet some of them still believe that we all live in Igloos, and drive dog sleds to work through 4 feet of snow as soon as they cross the border (and most of those people are coming from just over the border).
You would get a real different statistical outcome asking those questions to Canadians. Most would be in the upper regions of 8/10 for how happy they are in Canada, but a greater majority would love to travel around to see other cultures and experience other countries for themselves before making a landing spot to move to. You would also get some really interesting things said about the description of the people from other countries as well.
Already anticipating the next video Pea. Hopefully one day you can make a trip to Canada and experience how much the same and how vastly different we are from our southern brothers and sisters.
Yes, I’d love to conduct this experiment in Canada - I wonder what they think of Americans and others? 😳👍
You are completely wrong about feeling safe because they can't carry a gun. Criminals don't care about your gun laws they will always find a way but if you have a gun on you and get confronted by a criminal then you at least have a fighting chance.
@@PhilippinesLife101 in EU not many people are armed even it is legal. And Amaricans coming here are often shocked they can walk even midnight in most EU capitals (even woman alone). Also we don't know kids shooting their schools. And in UK even police don't wear guns on streets.
@@zuchnicky Yea heard about the gang rape going on in UK and people getting stabbed. Criminals will always find a way. No country is perfect. Ask yourself this question if you had a gun on you and some criminal attacked you wouldn't rather have it to defend yourself or you just like getting mugged and wait for the police to come take your report?
@@PhilippinesLife101 what you fail to understand and realize is that Canada's crime rate is soooo much lower than the USA's crime rate which is another reason tourists feel safer traveling to Canada, than our Neighbors down south. If you would have taken all the variables into consideration before summing up your response you wouldn't have jumped to the conclusion that you did.
Plus you have done absolutely zero research into the actual crimes that are being done here in Canada and how many of them involve guns. Comparing those statistics to the USA, Canada is a much safer place to be.
This was great pea good job 👍💐👌❤️❤️😇😇👍
Great video pea looking amazing 😊
That guy does not work in construction 🙄 😂😂😂
Maybe that’s why he dislikes it 🤣🤣
How do you know? I've worked construction and been a tradesman 47 years. Construction hard work, it's best for the young.🤗🧰🛠️🪛
@@ricgunn1439 you darn Skippy construction is definitely for the young
It's sad that younger people rank their happiness so low here in the US. I think much of it comes from being given everything in life, and they haven't grasped that you have to work hard for the finer things in life. The US is one of the easiest places in the world to live your dreams if you are willing to put effort into it. On an odd note, suddenly I'm getting all sorts of videos about retirees (mostly single males) from the US that are moving to the Philippines and realizing they aren't going to live like rock stars on their very low Social Security checks, and in some cases even going broke. I'm going to be critical for a moment, if you are in your sixties and haven't accumulated anything besides Social Security, (some of these checks are on the very low end of the scale) you have made very bad career, financial, and life decisions. Don't blame the Philippines because you make nothing but bad decisions in your life, but think you are going to live abroad, sleep with 20 year olds because no self respecting woman would date such an underachiever here. Don't blame the Philippines because you have spent roughly 47 years as an adult and can't get your shit together! I retired at 55 years old in the US and am living the dream here. I love the Philippines, the women, and the life in the Philippines in small doses. That said, I'm just too spoiled to our way of life here. On a funny note, I did communicate with and really thought I had met the woman of my dreams in the Philippines once. Naturally, I met the only smoking hot woman in the Philippines that wants no part of moving to the US. She makes decent money there as an RN, and while she has no children, she has close family ties and will never move here. BTW, I shouldn't say she is the only one that doesn't want to move here, I'm sure there are others. But, naturally I found her, and I have no intention of relocating there. Once again, I'm too spoiled.
Interesting that you said “in small doses”🤣
How long can you stay in the Philippines before wanting to come home? 😊
@@TheFilipinaPea If it's just a vacation for my own travelling enjoyment, several weeks. If I had a love interest there I could naturally devote more time. Let's say I ever one day truly meet the love of my life there, I could easily see myself spending a great deal of our winter there, and maybe two to three trips there for up to a couple of weeks each trip for her to see her family. I have a home in Texas and several short term rental properties in Florida. You just came from Fl, I would have suggested other Fl destinations, but you got a good taste of the state. I already feel like I'm living in paradise there. Not to be critical of the Philippines, but surely you recognize the conveniences and lifestyle we live here with modest wealth. I simply can't give that up permanently. Can't wait for you to come back here. I totally loved your take on our country and culture. Curious, assuming you have read this far, if you could change one thing (or several things) about the US, what would it be? What didn't suit you well?
This was a good video. Nice job Pea
Thanks Thed! ❤️❤️❤️👍
The Pea is the most brilliant and beautiful woman I have come across in my 75 years!!!
So you must’ve had eye problems at a very young age? 😢🤣🤣❤️❤️
As an american I have thought about retiring to another country such as the Phils but on further thought I don't think there is a better country to live in than the U.S. As for the younger people being less happy or satisfied I think it is because they are expecting too much. They don't realise you have to work and pay your dues. They want what they want and they want it now. Life don't work that way. Anyway, a very good post. Thank you and stay safe.
I will disagree with you. I think what the younger generation has a problem with is the fact that many of the older generations think, "I did this all on my own so go eff off." I am of an older generation and even with all the hard work I have put in I am not able to own a home. I will never be able to retire in the US. The fact that the higher ups in companies see a worker as a number and not a person means that I'd they could work you until you died, they would. There used to be a work life balance that the younger generations aren't able to maintain because of thought processes like you have espoused.
@@buellrichardson5222 I work with people in their 20's and 30's. I see it everyday and in many ways. They simply do not have the work ethic older generations had. Now having said that I do see your point. The higher ups really do see their workers as a resource that once is used up is thrown out. Do I think things are fair??? NO. But I have seen young employees tell their boss this or that is not my job...when it clearly is. I've always thought that I should justify my job. That is I want my employer to look at me and say, "we made the right decision when we hired him".
I wasn’t too surprised by the younger people’s attitudes - I was young once, too
🤣🤣🤣👍
@@TheFilipinaPea Oh yeah.....I can clearly see you are an old maid now....way past your prime or sell by date hahaha
You sound like a Boomer that had it easier. While true that no one owes you anything it’s undeniable the younger generation have been dealt a terrible hand and just saying ‘Them’s the breaks’ Just isn’t going to cut it.
Loved it Miss Pea wonderful ❤❤❤❤
