A couple of comments, Rob and Chrissey: Before your channel existed, I followed a number of the Philippines related channels. Now, I only follow your channel. I am going to the Philippines for the first time in July to Davao province. From all your content, I feel well-prepared for the visit. I love the sense of humour and lightness of all your videos, in addition to giving time to cover your content. Well done.

Nice video. Sure enjoyed learning with you.

Good job on your videos. You guys cover a good diversity of subjects and cover them creatively and interestingly. Keep up the great work!

Jealous is an understatement.

Once more good content.

Just turned on notification to your videos. Hope you enjoy the rest of your night!

Well done, guys! My compliments! 🙂

I like the light hearted format on this type of video. NIce job!

I REALLY liked this episode! The one Expat expectation I didn't hear was regarding money: How much extra expense for her, family support, children etc. Chrissy, regarding your expectation on communication- I can see Rob is patient, but your English (and cultural references as Rob mentioned) is very good... so props to you. You two are so compatible, I hope to be so lucky. Peace and Love, B Goat

I really enjoy your videos. It is quite refreshing to see INTELLIGENT conversations. I also think that the age gap works when both are intelligent.

I have two comments. First you two have very good chemistry together. A very natural and easy going personalities. Your keto diet is exactly the same as mine. Life changing for me. I’ll be going to CDO later this year. Hope to bump into you two !😊

I noticed you sir. You look younger by the day. Chrissy takes good care of you and having been in a great transition in your life here in the our Philippines. Keep us inform always. And I'm your avid watcher of your videos. Wishing you the best of everything...

Enjoyed the content, it must have been fun recording it.

❤❤❤Great Vid!!!

I really like how you talk to each other. Very endearing

Dear Chrissy and Rob - quite a funny and interesting feature, also that you have each found and accepted the differences with humor and laughter. Nice to see you together. Best regards from Denmark 😂

Jealous or insecure? I can handle some jealousy but insecurities and distrust is a whole different level 😮

Great video

Good morning from Montreal Once again very appropriate topic in this video. The frank discussion about these honest questions was excellent banter. I smiled frequently at your comments to each other. Thanks for the education! Erick

you two are really good together, excellent chemistry! Chrissey is a classy lady and really fun, and Rob is the consummate gentleman with a dash of wisdom. You all pull it off really well. Cootos

I am very glad I found you two. I really enjoy learning how to act and what to expect. I want to be respectful and enjoy my retirement in the Philippines. Thank you awesome video.

I really like this show.

You two are so wonderful together. Your topics are always on point and well done. 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Good job guy ........

Hey guys, thank you so much for the great content, I'm about to binge watch your channel, haha 54uk have 31-year-old filipina gf LDR, who is the most amazing woman. I'm visiting Ph. In July for 3 weeks and intend to put a ring on it. Had a 7-month LDR before, but something didn't make me feel she was forever. We have so many plans for my early retirement and move to Ph. So much of what you post resonates with my own experience Keep up the great work, guys. It's a wealth of great info for people like me. Thank you.

Just subbed. I'm heading to Bohol next March to go scuba diving. I will be relocating to the PI after I retire this time next year. Been to the PI 4 times back in the 80s whilst in the Navy. As soon as you mentioned call centers, a light went on. I worked for Alorica for 18 months as a systems administrator here in NM. The people I spoke with daily, both men and women, spoke perfect english. I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos.

Lived in CDO 13 months with my fiancée great place to live! Came back to states to work as our k-1 visa is being processed. Enjoy your videos 👍

We will be doing a trip to CDO and Malaybalay in a few weeks. What are some of these nice communities uphill that have a higher elevation near CDO?

Thank you for the great video. Would listen to most things if Chrissy is in it.😁

gotta say your thumbnails and topics are really rocking the algoriythms

Wow I love eggplant and i plan on planting some this year can Chrissy share a recipe of how she makes them?

ROFL great video.

She beyond beautiful!!

Yes Chrissie is very easy on the eye 👍

Another great video in terms of useful information and entertaining interaction. No big surprises in expectations, but useful for me who is also doing Keto and working towards metabolic flexibility. (By the way... Koreans are also now getting fat and increasingly suffering from diabetes.) I welcome more expectations videos!

Good vidi

I really appreciate your videos…especially these Q & A ones. You are a beautiful couple🇵🇭🙏🏼🇺🇸

The age gap is not a problem if the woman is mature...your girlfriend seem to be very much a mature and fun spirited one. LUCKY YOU …Thanks for that video

Great video guys. You are a very lucky man Rob . If Chrissey has a sister who likes British guys, let me know. 😁🇬🇧

Wow. A fellow Keto man - so unexpected. My biggest fear of visiting the Philippines is maintaining my 3 year ongoing Keto diet. You've assuaged that fear - at least to some degree.

Nice channel, I’ve live in Thailand 5 years and thinking about transitioning there after my first trip this year. Had a lot of memories of my Philippine grandmother in the states.Grew up in L.A. but hate the big cities. Looking for a nice places to visit close to services but but smaller like Chiang Mai. Any suggestions?

I believe in a 50/50 relationship, of course, each person needs to take the lead in specific areas if they are more knowledgeable in that area, for example, finance/budgeting, children’s education, childcare, cooking, etc

It’s noisy here in Thailand but I live in a small home community it’s only 30 homes here it’s ok but the road is close and loud motorbikes sometimes.

You are just going to butter me up, what do you want? Classic!

Rob and Chrissy great video you're both really improving infront of the camera. With dominant and submissive thing, why are there only two options? 😁 Me and my fiancé we talk about everything. In planning and other areas I take the lead, with the travel and organisation in the Philippines my Filipina does it. For us there's no labal, only togetherness.

Beautiful couple

relationship vulnerability is a factor of any couple's alliance, but challenges are the catalyst that make you stronger

I enjoyed your homemade curry. excellent

I learn so much from you two. I will be moving over there soon. I have a girlfriend that is a midwife in Manila but she is from Davaro and her family has farms in Cagon de Oro by you guys. I hope we can meet some day.

Very nice couple, you guys look so happy. Makes me want to try to find a nice Filipino girl

You 2 look good together.

Dam didn’t realize your 3 hrs away from our place in Maigo

New to this channel, but like the solid content. Things are often different between he culture, with regard to being "wild in the bedroom." My provincial wife does get tired up, and lots more. She would have been happy with "the basics" as others have said, but she has embraced her kinkier side, thanks to my desires, and our intimacy is wonderful. As to dominant or submissive (outside of the bedroom) I don't think of myself as "dominant", but as leading and assertive. I certainly respect my wife's opinion and encourage her to voice it. As for retirement there, I have too many health issues that require regular maintenance to live over there long-term. I can understand why it is an option for some.

Always great to watch you two interacting and feeling the love from your Filipina. Very interesting subjects. Is this the back porch to your house where you are filming? I think I need the full house tour. Rob are you going to buy a house at some point? My dream is to have a mountain house and a beach house near surfing 🏄…Living the life I want! I better start making some coin in the stock market if I’m going to be able to get there in less than 10 years…57 now…

When I worked in both Southeast Asia and Southwest Asia I hired a maid/cook. Sometimes I hired a driver and translator and from time to time a bodyguard. In some countries I could carry a firearm. Not sure how I’ll handle retirement. There’s no reason not to keep domestic help. It supports the local economy.

You can sing the song “Far Far Away’ The farther the better!Lol

My Filipina has karaoke in her store and when the rum comes out we all sing, good times. Our relationship is 50/50

You are a lucky man Rob.!! 😁👍

You are one lucky man!

You look good. Don't appear 37 years difference. I am 25 years difference. God Bless you Both.

Funny....I grew up in Florida. We never had AC in our house. It was not until long after I left home that AC was installed. I think my parents waited until we were all gone on purpose. 😅😅😅

Hi Rob & Chrissey, have enjoyed your experiance in CdeO to date. One thing I must however mention regarding a relationship is God forbid should anything happen that leaves Chrissey on her own. My own wife of 40 plus years continued her career as a graduate of Xavier University up until I retired in 2008 and we moved to the Philippines. As a result of her working she was able to contribute to the pension chest although I always had good jobs and salaries myself. Consequently she on retiral has the UK state pension and a pension from her employer in her own right. As my wife used to remind me whats the point of an education if you don'r use it. She said her brain would turn to Tinola through lack of use. There is 11 years between my Asawa and myself and during my 40 plus years of association between myself and the Philippines I can honestly say I have seen it done it and wear the Tee Shirt and I would not change a bit except have come to the Philippines a little earlier in my life lol !!!. Best wishes to you both.

How did you end up in C D O? I live in cebu. Great video . I think you have one of the better you tube channels.

What general area do you guys live?

My biggest wonder is about clean drinking water, and what do you do all day? With you retired and her not working what do you do? I have a hard time envisioning how we would spend our days and what she in particular would do for personal and educational growth.

Whatever flaws the US has, good customer service is not one of them. We have the best customer service in the world. If Chrissy buys a dress in any store in the US and decides she wants to return it and get her money back within 30 days, they will always take it back and not ask any questions. Any Americans living abroad have to accept how spoiled we are here and it's not going to be like that anywhere else.

You got yourself a dominant Filipina

hi, I just found your channel and like your style. I'm coming to Cebu in Sept for my 1st trip to Philippines. I plan to say in IT Park area, renting an apt to myself. I want to do some exploring and get some great photos. Any suggestions on things to do? How far is your area from Cebu? I've not heard of your town before.

I am Canadian my wife was Filipina we were married for 24 years till she passed away and I can tell you she was not that submissive lol I'd like to think we had a give-and-take partnership 50/50 which was perfect as yours seems to be. You look perfect together all the best of luck to both of you! ❤️

You are a very fortunate fellow to be with such a beautiful, intelligent and articulate woman. However, I think you interrupt her too much. Let her finish a comment before you interject another thought. She is very patient with you.

Their chemistry is difficult to watch.. But as long as they are happy.

Awe you two hold back too much. You can go deeper into these topics with precise language w/o cringe or crudeness.

I enjoy your channel and your amazing wife, I hope to meet a wonderful woman like her.

Hi there! I am happy i came across to your channel . I am from Lanao del norte Bacolod . But i am living now in Canada 🇨🇦, CDO is beautiful city . I am planning also to retire in the Philippines . I hope i could find also a partner who is willing to relocate in the Philippines.

If there is one area that would make me fit like a glove in the Philippines, it's karaoke. I used to sing karaoke every weekend here in the US and was always well received by the crowd. That reception probably had a lot to do with why I did it every weekend. 😂 The only thing holding be back from coming is my cat (I'm sure some guys have deducted all the points from my Man Card because of that statement! 😅) Not only would the plane ride be a nightmare for her, but I would feel terrible moving her out of a 3300 sq ft home to a 1-bedroom apartment. And giving her away would be VERY hard. She's my pal. But I'll figure something out...

I've been here in the Philippines for 2 months now, the noise and/or roosters aren't a problem, I've raised 5 kids everything is just back ground noise for me!

Filipinos seem to communicate their affections to their loved ones through singing Videoke.

New on your channel I feel like you are perfect match they love and care mostly understanding partner u both

In order for your lovely wife, to get social security survivor benefits, she must have 5 years of US residency, absent some very rare exceptions. Please consider that in your planning for the future.

When she smiles as the tropical wind blows through her hair, if he's talking I don't hear a word that he says! In fact, I think I'll just mute the whole thing but continue to watch. 😇

The only downside I've found with Asian women is jealousy. Currently I have a Chinese girlfriend in Shanghai, whom I'm about to marry. We have a fabulous relationship and get on extraordinarily well, with one exception.....jealousy. She doesn't seem to understand that i have a lot of friends and colleagues, many of whom just happen to be female. I'm hoping that as time passes she'll become more relaxed and less jealous of female friends and colleagues whom I've known for many years, before I met my girlfriend.

We are 😂

FEEDBACK comment right on! I've had to shut my mouth often. 😄 TRAVEL yes indeed. I don't like to sit home. I enjoy traveling in Luzon. ENGLISH I was very surprised at the lack of English speaking middle aged people. CALL CENTER better English than most country men FOOD teaching in laws not all meat needs to be cooked like shoe leather. EATING yes western fast food has arrived. NOSES it's a European things! 👍😉

About cooking and chubby Filipinos: My in-laws asked if I knew how to cook. I assured them I could. They said good because Lyn can't! After over 12 years now she has become a very good cook, although she did ask me to cook once for a big Filipino party. I did the pork ribs, lasagna, etc. Turned out it was my birthday party including my family from out of state! Lyn and our 100% Filipino son eat 3X what I eat! She is still about 5'7" and 110 pounds and hardly varies an ounce. The puny little boy that came over with his mom is almost 6 feet now and built like a rock! BTW, Lyn is from Davao and her brother is fairly tall and fit and looks like he could have been cast in Dances With Wolves. Lord I wish I had their hair!

I wonder if my Filipina had any of these expectations of me 🤔

Thanks! How do I contact you you?

Are you saying that I should NOT try to get through Philippine immigration with my furry handcuffs, whip, and (ahem, cough, cough) "leather accessories?"

If you are not into tying a girl up and blindfolding her, you are throwing away an exciting thing that she can experience beyond what most men offer. It is not about hurting her. It is about anticipation. About excitement. If she feels safe with you, then as long as it doesn't hurt, she should be willing. And vice versa.

Is Chrissy happy living in the Philippines , or does she want to live in America

How old is Chrissy?

I think the word you are looking for is domineering not dominant.

The same thing here in Thailand rice diabetes and to much sugar and fast food . Global food companies

RU-vid can turn anyone into a chef.

My finpno girlfriend taught me how to speak her parents language it took me 6 months to learn it

One thing to understand about Filipinas... they are partly Latina. This was a Spanish colony for a long time. They aren't submissive, trust me!!! But, at least with my wife, she is a GREAT co-pilot. My original intention was to live in the Philippines with my wife. But, things happened in the US that forced me to come back here, and I gave my wife a choice. She didn't want to live a long time without me while I took care of things in the US, so she came here with me. We've been married almost 6 years, after being together 2 1/2 years in the Philippines. My wife and I have had a lot of similar expectations and found similar realities.

My finpno girlfriend was jealous wen I went out drinking with my brother but I said to her come with me and she said no you need to spend time with your brother and i said to her just remember I alllways come home to you wen I go out with my brother

At 0:10, what a beautiful lady, what a beautiful view... I'm wondering, is an American citizen still not allowed to own property in the PH ? Just like most Asian countries, non citizens are not allowed to own land or homes... Also, do cell phones from the United States work in the Philippines ? or would I need to buy one there...
