Hi Gino, I watched a video you did when you were living in the condo on the esplanade and it sparked my interest so I finally made it to Iloílo City a couple of weeks ago. You are absolutely right about Iloilo City. It exceeded my expectations and so I’m planning on moving there fairly soon from Cebu City with a lot of excitement about getting a bike and riding the esplanade and other parts of the city. Thank you for the update on you and wish you and Dazel well, blessings!

Happy to hear that you enjoyed your time in Iloilo City. The esplanade helped me a lot during my treatments. Having the view from our balcony was a blessing; many days I couldn’t do anything but sit there. My morning walks at the esplanade gave me hope that things would get better. Take care my friend.

Iloilo will by my homebase and we will be looking for a second place in Aklan, glad to see you are doing well Ginno.

I would recommend that someone create a mayor's conference in Iloilo where mayors from different cities can converge and plan how to clean up and improve their own municipalities. This place really is an example to be looked up to.

Hey brother hope your c and p goes well. I have another one soon myself but i dont think mine is going to go well. I hope you are trying to service connect your cancer. As a USAF vet myself, im sorry to say, but USAF vets do seem to have a significantly higher rate of cancer than the general population. Not sure why it could be the bases or chemicals we are exposed to, or the unique type of stress. I feel very confident your c and p will go very well, because the air force knows this.

Thank you for sharing your story … You have a pleasant storytelling method … Question for you, should you choose to entertain it: For your C&P exam. Did you make a special note in your claim to have an appointment as close to you as possible? Or did you just go with the flow & accept whatever location was given? Kalibo to Iloilo was close but far in a way. Definitely closer than Manila … I live in Surigao City in Mindanao & hope I get a close appointment location. Airplane tickets can be pricey if not purchased months in advance

@dazeltv1351

Ай бұрын

Thank you my friend. I just accepted the appointment the VA gave me. I understand my friend. We always have to fly to Manila or Cebu from Kalibo to get to other places in the Philippines. Gets expensive when you have to make connections from Manila or Cebu.

ILoILo is a great city for sure...I haven't been there yet, but it reminds me of Cebu 20 years ago, where I have spent some time...

But, like you I can visit from time to time and while there will catch up with some of the expats in the area... Hoping that the VA evaluation goes well and in your favor as an outcome... I could have done the same 25 years ago as I retired, but I've never pursued it... The injuries are still there, I just couldn't deal with the hassle back then... Take care and enjoy!

When I retired I was fit and healthy. No injuries, surgeries, never got admitted to the hospital for anything. Same ever since I retired here in the Philippines 12 years ago; never got sick till I got my diagnosis of head and neck cancer. I’m just hoping to get my health back; recover from the effects of chemo/radiation. So thankful I’m done with the treatments. Take care our friend.

No thanks! IMO the real beauty of the Philippines is the country not their cities! The cities will fall when the world economy collapses, and it most certainly will. The country where farmers till the soil and produce food is where the future will be because they will be the most important thing as they will feed the masses when food no-longer is shipped in.
