    At least he didn't call you "daddy" lol. I was called daddy by a man one day and I yelled back "I am not your daddy" lol

      @Expat_Philippines  11 місяців тому

      Yea that has happened to me a few times walking down the streets in Manila... I found it really disturbing... My reaction was similar...I don't mind "Joe", some of the Brits get put off about it, which I find endearing.

    Say quick question. In the Philippines can you get deliveries from over seas like walmart

    • @Expat_Philippines
      @Expat_Philippines  11 місяців тому +1

      I would imagine so...I'm assuming the shipping would be very expensive and potential delays with customs- depending...I'm not sure about Walmart in particular.

    • @Expat_Philippines
      @Expat_Philippines  11 місяців тому +1

      They have Lazada in this country and other services for similar goods in Asian countries...
