Moving to a foreign nation will be a life-changing event for anyone. What are your priorities, needs, wants, budget, etc? Your answers are vital to finding the best location within that country. Your choices in the Philippines are large cities like Manila, Cebu City, and Davao City, smaller towns in the provinces, and medium-sized cities like Iloilo City, Bacolod City, Dumaguete, Baguio, etc. Cost of living, entertainment, medical care, shopping, and many other factors should be considered when deciding on a location to settle down in. My advice is to travel to several regions and cities to get a feel for the areas.
