I have been divorced for ten years and live by myself in a little country town in Victoria. I met a Filipino girl through a mutual friend here in Australia and I have visited her three times in Cebu. My last visit was for two months and now that I am back in Australia again I am missing her so much and have decided to sell up here and go back to live permanently in Cebu or there abouts. It is a big decision at my age and people have told me that I am mad, but my lady in Cebu makes me feel alive again, and I have never had this from a Western woman so I figure that if it does not work out I will just have to return to Australia and rent. I have spent a total of four months with her and there is not a nasty bone in her body, she is so caring and easy to live with and I like the Philippines, so I guess that it is a risk that I have to take, or spend the rest of my life wondering "what if?" I am retired and spend my days doing my interests to fill in the days, and I have no family ties to keep me here. Basically that is it in a nutshell...See you all in Cebu. lol
