I use Jetstar as reasonable and if you book long time in advance I can get cheaper seats.

Posts: 204Air Travel to Australia
My daughter is in the process of obtaining a visa to work as a nurse in Australia for a year. She will likely be in the Brisbane area. I expect that she will finally be approved and on her way in about March. 2014. I am planning to coordinate my next trip to the Philippines in about May and then carry on to visit her in Australia. I will buy a return seat sale ticket to Manila from Canada and am planning to go onward to Australia and then return to Manila for my return trip back to Canada.
My question is about the cost of flights. Am I better off to just buy the ticket in Canada or are there better and cheaper options Manila to Australia? From what I can see here it looks like the ticket will be in the $500 to $800 range. Are there better times of year to travel when the airlines tend to run specials. I know that the airlines there tend to throw out some crazy unannounced special prices from time to time.
Thanks for your advice everyone.

Posts: 4567I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I was thinking of a couple who made it work. Thank you for the clarification. You should have skinned me alive.

Posts: 368Daily romps are good for your health!
A Filipina "friend" on facebook posted this article about the health benefits of daily sex. I think it is a good basis for excusing charges of prostitution. Hahahaha.

Posts: 174So far I have managed to be a good boy
Faithful is a big word, which with respect to all the "Old School" in Piper and Wicked is not muttered in the same breath. However it is possible to settle in Phils, and be faithful, but very difficult.
The more you walk around and try just to admire from afar, it is not easy. Just a wander round a mall or two. Life is hard.
Wicked thanks for reminding me that there is life in old age.

But you are right, the girls suddenly change from a loving and naughty girlfriend who knows who are naughty, goes out with you mates to bars etc and is cool about it to a wife who knows you are naughty and goes to bars with your mates and will not like it!
I had a girlfriend who was jealous of ex girlfriends I have before she was born. Now that was funny (well I thought it was but she took a very dim view of chuckles!)
This is why men can never really understand women am sure LOL.

Posts: 174Retire from work, and settle with a little girl
Risky, if she is / was a bar girl. She has needs that you might not be able to give after a few years.
If you settle in Phils, your GF will become very jealous if you go out without her. She met you in a bar (I assume) and will expect you to go back to old habits.
It is a major problem, to balance the new GF, with your needs.
Try seeking a non WG, difficult I know.
But I managed it, and love the attention I receive, but very aware of the jealous looks, and "discussions".
Be faithful, and you will have a great life in retirement.

Posts: 4567Zippo, you lucky dog, I wish I could retire at 54. I haven't been to Chiang Mai, nor Columbia, so I don't have any enlightening information for you. But I think it's a great question and will create a lot of discussion here.
As for question 1, in Ac, it seems some of the long timers do hit the bars regularly. But they sit around and chat with themselves. I personally get bored with the place in less than a week.
If I was thinking about living in Philippines I might look at Cebu or Davao. Nevertheless, if you go to the Manila thread, you'll find several regular posters who seem to live and love the place.
Take a look at the Davao thread and peruse Good Enough's messages. He's not retired, but has a few years under his belt. He's landed on your number 2.
And when I visit Philippines I often meet guys who live in more remote places and seem to have created their own little utopia wherever they are. Different strokes for different folks.

I will just act dumb, if she was a good screw. To get her to bed. If she was good.

She gave me the look and said "You don't have to be rude to us."
Yah right.
Of course I know in The PH grammer. 'you have a wife' is the same as 'you are married to a Filipino. ' though I couldn't resist trying to see how they react.
And when I was leaving, after paying terminal fee, I still had the balance pesos in my hand, and the BI guys after the counter openly asked "sir, you can donate the balance for Christmas fund." I Smiled and said "will I get a receipt." and before he could digest it with a smiling face I moved away.

Anyway, following multiple visits back to AC and she never replied to any of my FB messages I guess she had moved on. Well it has taken her about a month to learn about how to milk foreigners via FB and she now has a solid 'Yolanda' story. She even now miz me so much and wish we can be bf / gf. I did point out that she hasn't miz me for the past twelve months. Consequently I haven't heard from her again.
I feel sorry for the many armchair mongers whom are sending Western Union to this new story.
I feel sorry that the money does not get to the intended people.
