Five years later, hindi ko na makita ang sarili ko na titira ulit sa Manila (no offense sa Manilenyos).
More than the uncertainty sa bago mong lilipatan, mas natatakot kang iwanan yung lugar na nakasanayan mo. In my case - homesickness, absence of rain, Jollibee withdrawal (LOL). We will adapt eventually.

So for me, I just see pinas as a vacation spot nalang, to visit my family and friends there once in awhile. I cant see myself also working there with a low salary nakakapanibago un for sure. Maybe ill go back there to retire when im 60. Another dissapointing thing also is that if your a frequent traveler, you can compare Pinas to other countries. For instance, I went to Bangkok and you can see theres a lot of white tourists everywhere, bcuz their country is safe, nobody robs them. Unlike in pinas when they see white tourists first thing they think is they got money or kidnap them. Thats the reason why theres just a few white people touring pinas bcuz of safety reasons.
