Hi I'm Kurt. Setting out to retire in a year or so. My wife of 17+ years is from Pampanga so we are planning on making the move in short order. We have nothing keeping us here in the US anymore so the move would be permanent.
Our current plan is that we would both go this summer and take our two dogs (that might be the most difficult aspect of this) and then I would return after a few weeks to settle affairs here (dispose of of household) and ship whatever we want to send to her. Once that is done, give my notice at work and then I'll be leaving for good. We'll start off renting (probably San Fernando area possibly) but would ultimately like to buy something in Pampanga, Pangasinan or Nueva Ecija. Close to relatives but not too close.
I've been going through this forum for some time and appreciate the resource.
