JJ's Philippine LifeA Smarter Way to Discover the Philippines |

We have been happily married for over 6 years, and living between the U.S. and the Philippines. Right now, we’re budgeting to live solely on Julian's Social Security income — and yes, it’s possible!
We’re building our second house in the Philippines (this one for Josephine’s parents), we’ve purchased several hectares for farming, acquired multiple lots, and are partners in a thriving piggery we helped fund.
This blog is our passion project and our mission is simple:
What you’ll find here:
Life in the Philippines 🌴Let's chat about day-to-day living: cost of living, visas, learning to slow down, adapting to Filipino culture, food, family life, and what it's really like living with a Filipina partner. It’s honest, helpful, and sometimes hilariously real.
Filipina Highlight 💖This section is where a special lady is willing to open up and give a detailed interview. Letting you know what she is looking for in a partner. You will know where she grew up, what kind of work she is currenly doing, wheather she is a good cook. And ifshe is open to move away from family or out of the country.
If you like what you see and hear, then we will give you the opertunity to say "Hi" and tell her the details she needs to know to move forward. The choice to move forward left up the Filipina.

If you do, then we make it easy for you to say "Hi" and let her know about you. What you are looking for. Have you or are you ready to retire. Are you already living in the philippines. Once you complete your details, then she will recieve your information. She then can decide if the 2 of you are a match and she can reach out to you. Remember you have the choice to reach out to her and she has the same right. It is her choice to move forward or not.
But nexver fear, every week we have a new Filipina that might be your perfect match!
