Hello, to all!
My husband I want to move to the Philippines. We have no Filipino ties to the people or country. My concern comes from what I've seen and heard about safety for Americans. I'm more concerned about the safety of our children.
I have two little girls (blonde with blue eyes and red head with brown eyes). They'll stick out like sore thumbs along with my caucasian husband (I'm half Korean/caucasian). I worry that my children will not be accepted or in danger of being taken (according the the news).
We're not looking to live in the big city or in an expat community. We want to live and experience the Filipino life...to an extent.
I know there are dangers all over the world. I'm curious if Americans with a family are at higher risk or if it's simply media over exposure.
Any advice or insight is greatly appreciated!
