I lived in the Seattle area from 1984-1989 (Silverdale). I loved it there but it seems the political environment has changed so much now.

baronapart replied to BrettGC's topic in The Filipina
Cherry Blossoms 2017. Made 8 trips to the Philippines 2017-2019. She is from Zamboanga del Norte, Mindanao. We met in Manila on my first trip. Then subsequent trips to Cebu, Dipolog, Dapitan and the coastal areas of ZDN. Married April 2019. My life has been so much better since I met her. -

Please let us know how this goes. I am contemplating the same... -
Excellent advise here. Especially about foreigners in her FB. That was always an auto-next for me. Really, that is key...never be afraid to just walk away if something doesn't feel right. No matter how much time or money you may have put in.
