Philippines, really?

People are very welcoming (at least in the Northern part of Philippines).....

But climate - sooooo hot?

Then there are earthquakes, terrorists who are active, Mostly in the South but also have been in Manilla area....

ON the other hand 0 someone mentioned Nova Scotia....but why would I want to go to socialized Canada?

Any consideration of Costa Rica?

What do any of the Island nations near the US offer?

I'm with you. As soon as I get some business settled that's my plan.

First one there chills the beer!

You realize that if this really happens, and things get bad, you are at extreme risk.

If the balloon goes up, you are a gringo in a far away place filled with very angry people. Now if you are there long enough that you become part of the community, it is a different story. But there are many ex pats who live in gated communities and think all will be hunky dory no matter what.

History has shown other wise.
