Johnnie clearly found the Philippines mesmerizing and had the time of his life. He can't wait to come back. The same adventure could be waiting for you!
You said it, Wahwah! I dont know why they just dont get it and so many women cant figure out how to just bring peace into a mans life. Its so simple most of the time!
His mindset is exactly as every man who comes here should be. He came here with an open mind and a smile on his face. He never complined once in all the times that we spoke with him. Love that guy! Hes a solid man!
OMG well said Jonny! If you come here looking for something negative you’ll find it, but I came here looking for a positive reason. You sir get the grammy❤ hollaring from Milwaukee Wisconsin!
This is a good interview. Great positive vibes, Johnny. I wish him all the best in his travels and hope that he will continue to enjoy wherever he visits. Good job, Rich and Cheng👏😊
I like his words of wisdom . Let the love find you awww sweet . I believe in that too. If is meant to be it will be . Hello mega shoutout watching from California 🇺🇸 Mr. Johnnie enjoy your vacation. Enjoy Life enjoy every moment make a Happy memories.
Greetings to you and your Beautiful Wife. Thanks for sharing this interview. Johnnie is super Cool.Brothers need to listen and learn from this gentleman. Peace and Blessings to you and yours .
Great Interview. I agree with Johnny splitting time in both locations. I went to the Philippines for the first time in Jan to experience living there and traveling the country and I just came back in Oct so I was there a total of 9 months and enjoyed it. So back in the USA right now but for sure will be going back sometime in late 2025. Great show as always Richie and Cheng. Oh Richie great job on the Rakim rap! LOL 😆
Thanks for the compliment, Darren. Holler at ya boy when you get back here, brother. Appreciate anyone who knows Eric B and Rakim! Cheng is rubbing off on me!
@@RichieRichAbroad-us6ol I sure will the next time I am in country. Yes indeed brother Eric B and Rakim much respect. You and Cheng rubbing off on each other because you are a great combo! Keep up the great work!
Sup Richie & Cheng? That was a great interview with Johnny. Johnny seems like a wonderful soul, who I would want as one of neighbors. Mainly bcuz he is a people person and is always looking on the bright side of life. Plus if I were bored I could always go over and talk about anything with him. He’s got a great plan in place which to learn and absorb as much as he can before he makes his decision. I have always felt that when I ‘m ready to make my move of retirement, that it would be much in the same fashion as Johnny. I really enjoyed this video Richie & Cheng. Please share more of your experiences with your subs and friends who visit the Philippines. Both of you guys are wonderful interviewers. See you on your next video or live. ❤
@@RichieRichAbroad-us6ol The fact that you two have such a good chemistry together seemed to have rubbed off on Johnny, bcuz he fit right in with you two and feed off the vibes and ran with it. Ultimately making it an enjoyable interview.
Hi guys, loved the interview with Johnny, a man of wisdom who loves his peace, and has plenty of patience as well, he would be a good man to spend time with just talking about life. Peace, serenity and enjoyment of the place and people are what I hope for in moving to Philippines. I think Johnny is exactly right in not chasing women, say goodbye to peace and serenity if you do that. Just wait for who God has for you at the right time. Keep up the good work Cheng and Richie (and Johnny) Great interview. God Bless and take care👍👍
Wow, Johnnie’s experience of the Philippines is really persuasive. I had planned on visiting Thailand but now I will have to add the Philippines to the agenda. I am a nature lover & the green lushed landscapes in both countries won me over. Anyway, good interview today, guys. Keep up the good works. 👍
indeed. peace is the most men want in life. whether with a woman or not. this brother you interview is amaze on what he experience the countries hospitality and kindness of us Filipinos, love your videos sir Richie and Miss Cheng, more of it. godbless both of you.
@@RichieRichAbroad-us6ol that would be nice sir Richie, having interviews with foreigners on what their insights give more context and proof on why expats flocking toward our country and stays here.
"If you're looking for something negative, yes you will find it, but I didnt come to look for anything negative. I came over here looking for something positive." This is what struck me the most in doing the interview with Johnnie. It will be good to consciously shift your focus to the positive aspects. Practicing gratitude can help you appreciate things more rather than getting caught up in imperfections.
Indeed. Most of the time it's the mindset. You look for negatives, surely you will find it because life is not 100% positives. As they say you look for trouble and trouble will find you
Johnie is bubly and has a positive mindset because our mind is a powerful thing, when you feel and feed it with positive thoughts our life will start to change. Great interview😇
Haha, I was wondering who would pick up on that! You would have to be in your mid 40's to mid 50s to get that one! Good call, Byl. Im 56, so we are close in age, brother!
Hi Explore, maybe Cheng can answer this better later, but I would say that your best bet is GOOGLE! Johnnie says that he used GOOGLE for everything and every place he went !
Hi Explorer, this is Cheng. For some reason, I cannot post my reply to your comment using my personal account since yesterday. Just like what Johnnie and Rich said, Google is the best option. But, if I may suggest, check out Ghie Precious Journey on Facebook. I availed their services before and they're pretty cool. facebook.com/preciousjourneytravelandtours?mibextid=ZbWKwL
You have a keen sense of observation, Ray Ray! I was looking at the video during the editing and I was wondering who would catch that. It is a fraternity brand from my college days!
Uncle Johnnie turned out to be a real solid dude! I was looking forward to meeting him before he arrived and when we met, he was way cooler than i even thought he would be!
@@JefeLee1267 77 I’m an old man with a young spirit. I have been told many times that I’m young at heart. That’s what keeps me going and I really enjoy talking to people and learning and sharing information. That’s what so beautiful over here meeting expats who were tired of the rat race in America. All we ever wanted as men was to provide for our family and get the respect that we deserve because we earned it. Since we couldn’t get it at home we got it here. It ain’t perfect but life is what you make it. That’s all I want with the rest of my life is PEACE. That’s all we all deserve in our later years in life. Ain’t to much to ask is it? Take care
I think I'll be ok , but it is always inspiration to be the best person I can be . There's always another guy out there to compete with. ... and vice versa! 😉
True enough, there are a lot of predators who will be looking for a guy like Johnnie. Luckily he was more fascinated with the country than the women this time around. We'll keep an eye on him though!
No way will I be going broke. I can see scammers a mile away. Not saying I can’t be tricked but you have to get up early in the morning before that ever happens. Furthermore I’m not looking for a twenty something Filipino woman. I ain’t looking to take care of a Filipino family and last but not least I’m not looking to raise another man children. Ps the woman must have her own place be self sufficient and be willing to be an asset not a liability. Does that answer your question trav? I will not be another statistic. I hope that ur paying attention to what I just said,
You tell em, Johnnie. Sometimes people mistake kindness for weakness! But after sitting down with you a couple of different times, I dont see you as that type of man who is easily gotten over on. I learned a little more about you than our audience gets to see in 16 minutes, but we can all see that youre an outstanding man of good character.
Johnnie clearly found the Philippines mesmerizing and had the time of his life. He can't wait to come back. The same adventure could be waiting for you!
Superiffic interview
Wow! That's some description! Thank you 😊
That is all that we all want is that peace !!!!! I shall be there in March,
You said it, Wahwah! I dont know why they just dont get it and so many women cant figure out how to just bring peace into a mans life. Its so simple most of the time!
Johnny nailed it. The over-the-top respectful treatment instead of feeling invisible or even disrespected as a senior in the U.S.
He made some pretty good endorsement for the Philippines.
@@AZ_Bill u got that right Bill
Johnnie is doing just what I plan on doing on my trip to the Philippines and the Far East.
You can live both worlds as Johnny said in the interview. Thanks for watching, Rodmo 😊
Johnny where are you from
His mindset is exactly as every man who comes here should be. He came here with an open mind and a smile on his face. He never complined once in all the times that we spoke with him. Love that guy! Hes a solid man!
i know that hes from somewhere in Phily, but maybe he can respond to you directly.

I know right, we should start calling him Uncle Johnnie!
You guys are to much 🤣😂🤣💲

Rich with the old-school Rakim reference! How old are you Rich? We must be around the same age. I'm in my mid-50s.
Haha, I was wondering who would pick up on that! You would have to be in your mid 40's to mid 50s to get that one! Good call, Byl. Im 56, so we are close in age, brother!
Is there a reputable tour company to help a potential expat to see the country?

Hey what is Johnny's age?
If i recall correctly, he is 71 years old. He often reads the comments so im sure he will correct me if im wrong.

That Philadelphia accent.
Easy to pick up on, wasnt it!
@ I’m from the area and it was good to hear that he enjoyed himself.
Hi Cimba, where are you from and where do you live now?
Filipinas are cool but I'm in a love triangle with me, myself and I.
I hear ya, KnightBreed.
Lol. It's a great place to start!
Poor Richie, sounds like you now have competiton for Cheng ;)
I think I'll be ok , but it is always inspiration to be the best person I can be . There's always another guy out there to compete with. ... and vice versa! 😉

There are definitely some bad apples here, but Johnnie is a man with a lot more worldly experience than we were able to show in this short video.
To the woman who said the philippines has over 7k islands..Greece has over 6k..Indonesia 17k..what is her point?
I think her point is that there are lots of places to go and things to see in the Philippines!
Thanks, Rich that's exactly my point. Johnnie mentioned that a few weeks is not enough to see the Philippines. Thanks for watching, Bb.
