    Your tagalog is getting better and better! Quite impressive! staying here for a while, helps. but yeah totally agree with you the cost of living here is not that cheap along with the inflation it makes it harder for a minimum wage earner everything is expensive nowadays, seems like you can adapt to this kind environment, and i have no idea that you're frugal that's a good thing actually, don't worry you will find a place better than that where you can have your own

    How come I did not find your channel sooner? The best contents so far! I loved how you engage with the locals! Rent usually is higher in Metro Manila compared to the neighboring cities/provinces, but with the current traffic in the metro, that might be your best option. Might be seeing you around might say hi! Keep safe!

    Housing really depends on location, I'm in Iloilo and we can find an apartment here for $100. That's a spacious solo room with AC and my own bathroom. If I include utilities (water, electricity, internet) then it runs around $150. A condo in a high rise building in my city will range anywhere from $400-$600 but that's already furnished and they have good amenities.

    In Makati CBD, you can get a studio at about 35-40 Sqm. for $400. That is considered cheap in the area for obvious reasons, it is the second most developed area in the country (BGC is probably the most developed). But in spite of Makati being very developed, it still has a lot of cheap food if that is your jam, they call the Karinderia's there as "Jolly jeep".
    The area is very international plus you get both high end and entry level items all in the same area. You also have nice public parks and the place is just cleaner compared to most areas in Metro Manila. You have every conveniences available to you and safety and security is top notch. One of the few places where you can walk around or jog even at midnight without worry of getting mugged.

    Pinay here and I can say Philippine Peso coin characteristics could get really tricky if one is visually impaired or have poor eyesight like me. It doesn't help that both the old and the new series of coins are in circulation. Sizes are not too differentiated and there aren't many distinguishable design or tactile differences to identify between denominations.

    18:00, It's crazy to think about the fact that in the span of my 5 years of living here in the U.S., I have forgotten how the fruits taste in the Philippines. I mean, here in the U.S. when you go to the grocery stores the fruits are massive, but the taste is just 80% sour and 20% sweet and sometimes it just tastes like water. My point is, I forgot that fruit can be 100% sweet!
