I know how hard it can be to travel and work at a different country but here’s some great information on working/living in Phillipines so you know.
| Although I’m a filipina by origin, I’ve only ever been to the Philippines once - and that was to a luxury island resort. So I asked my VA - Alfa Mercado - to put this post together for me. |
| Here’s what she has to say about the Phillipines as a possible destination for your location independent life… |
| If you’re one of the lucky few whose job entails plenty of traveling to places all over the globe - or you’re a location independent web worker, the you might find that the Philippines is a worth stop over. |

Here’s some good insights into how a person could fund his/her travels through mastery of the poker game.
| Though I knew nothing about poker when I quit my suit-and-tie desk job, I quickly picked it up on my travels around the world. Since then I’ve played hundreds of hands of Texas Hold ‘Em and met plenty of poker players, many of them fellow globetrotters. |
| I guess there’s something about taking a calculated risk that links both travelers and poker players because there seems to be a lot of crossover. |

Here’s some great information on Cebu, Philippines. It seems that I have not traveled the world at all if Cebu is as beautiful and interesting as it sounds.
| Being peaceful and inhabited by warm and hospitable people where large scale businesses thrive, Cebu has become the melting pot of Asian races in the Philippines. Many Chinese and South Koreans have made this place their permanent home. Shown above is a Taoist temple built by the Cebu Chinese community. It is open to all visitors- worshipers and non-worshipers alike. And around three hundred (300) meters above sea level, it provides a very comfortable and panoramic view of the ever prospering Queen City in Southern Philippines. |

Here’s a really great view from the Empire State Building, wow…
| The Empire State Building is a 102-story art deco skyscraper in New York City, New York at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and West 34th Street. Its name is derived from the nickname for the state of New York. It stood as the world’s tallest building for more than forty years, from its completion in 1931 until construction of the World Trade Center’s North Tower was completed in 1972. Following the destruction of the World Trade Center in 2001, the Empire State Building again became the tallest building in New York City. |

Here’s an interesting landmark in Japan, the Atom Bomb Dome!
At the beginning of the Hiroshima
area economically, Hiroshima responded to the need for a central facility
through which to expand trade routes. Plans were drawn up for a commercial
exhibition hall on the banks of the Motoyasu River. Construction was completed
in April 1915, and the new building was named the Hiroshima Prefectural
Commercial Exhibition HMI. It was formally opened to the public in August that
year. In 1921 the name was changed to the Hiroshima Prefectural Products
Exhibition Hall, and again in 1933 to the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial
Promotion Hall. During the war, as Japan’s economic fortunes worsened, the hall
was commandeered for such governmental, quasi-governmental and rationing offices
as the Chugoku-Shikoku Public Works Office, the Hiroshima District Lumber
Control Corporation and others. |
