Hi expats in the Philippines, may I know what do you do here?
As I have seen, there are:
- People come here to work in office.
- People come here to retire.
- People come here to teach a language.
- People come here to study.
etc.
Who are you among them OR you do something else?
Expats in the Philippines, what do you do here?

For the seven months that I am here (October to April) I play tennis 5 times a week , Monday to Friday mornings and than I try and get in a game of golf on the weekends.
Also during those seven months my girlfriend and I try and get in 3 to 4 one week trips to different places in the Philippines.
The rest of the times is spent living a life just like I would be doing back in Canada but without the cold and snow. 😄

I run a small business here. My company contracts / subcons glass windows and doors for homes, offices and stores.
It's a trade passed on to me by my parents. I also managed their shop for a few years before going to the US. So, I had a lot of experience running this type of business.
It's profitable, but I wouldn't recommend it to an expat. Lots of competition, difficult to manage people, inventory and scheds, One would definitely lose money if he / she doesn't have a good background / knowledge of this business or hire untrustworthy people.
