Welcome to the forum Geoff, I'm sure some of the other members can give you some advise. Might be better if you state the specific information you require. @Markham @Bootsonground @oss are chaps here amongst others who can give you some pointers.
Hey Geoff..Welcome mate.. Your question is very wide ranging!! Very happy to help IF I can but please be a bit more specific with your question/s.. Cheers!!
No specific questions at the moment. I'm just anticipating many to come, which I hope members will no doubt have the answers or provide guidance
Welcome to the forum! If you have specific questions, a lot of members here are happy to help. The topic "living in the Philippines" is a bit broad. But to give you a bit of overview, Philippines is a country composed of many islands. If you wanted to relax in a beach, there are a lot of places to go to like Palawan, Boracay, Cebu (Bantayan Island), etc. A lot. The culture and language vary wherever you are in the country. For example: In Manila, the language used by majority is Tagalog but most people can speak English. In Cebu, the language used by majority is Cebuano but most people can understand Tagalog and speak English. The currency is PHL peso. As of today, the conversion is 1GBP=62.32PHP. If you decide to come over in PHL, bear in mind that yout GBP is 62+x in comparison to peso. If you have specific questions in the coming days, feel free to ask.
