Forum Support Popular Post Old55 Posted December 8, 2017 Forum Support Popular Post Posted December 8, 2017 Expats dealing with those little things while living in da Philippines 🇵đź‡Â may forget your “old” life back in the West. 4:45AM 29deg heavy thick freezing fog. Start car, scrape ice off windshield warm up car then off to work. Dealing with icy ❄️ streets huge pucker factor as traction is fleeting. Thinking of upcoming challenges that will occur in the workplace while trying to stay out of the ditch. Just as I enter the campus a Coyote darts into-under my car. Some how it didn’t damage the front spoiler or anything else, well except for the Coyote. Expat members you are all living your dream even though there maybe a bump or two remember what was. Having said all that what good things have you experienced while living in Philippines the past year? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Old55 Posted December 8, 2017 Author Forum Support Posted December 8, 2017 It’s weird Steve, this is the third time I’ve hit a Coyote the past ten years or so. One was unhurt the others roadkill. I’m sorry to hear about the cat. I hope it survived. Like you I’m about had enough of work now. I’m just tired. Unlike you I’m treated very well and I’m thankful for that. Anyway  I look forward to spending time every year in Philippines 🇵đź‡. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this would make a wonderful poster to hang on your front door living in the PI's, but man is never happy with what he has. No disrespect Old55, but this poetic phase bring a to my eye this early in the morning. Facing another bloody hot windy day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
