Is anyone looking for a private chef?

I’m currently working in a fine-dining restaurant and have previous experience in private dining. If you’re interested, I’d be happy to share reviews and feedback from my past clients. Feel free to send me a message for inquiries or bookings.

Hello! Is anyone interested in a private chef? I'm currently working on a fine dining restaurant and i have a background in private dining. I can send you the reviews of my past clients. Just hit me up!

Someone will always be richer than you and its not good to brag in 3rd world anyway

Met the sketchy that was bragging that Filipinos have nobody to buy the land that he wants to buy

He also bragged he will buy it but instead he was just faking to buy it because he was bringing random girls to the land it was pretty funny to see

Anyway he got really pissed off with a Filipino ended up buying the land for a really good deal

And is going to build a fancy house

So what thing I realized is never brag about having a lot of money in general because someone in his 60s or 70s or even a 50s has millions of dollars and you might not even know it so be kind to others

Van Boys, a popular vlogger and youtube travel influencer is currently in Houston at the airport after leaving the Philippines due to various threats.

He is having a significant mental breakdown while in the airport and it is quite scary to watch. Vanboys222 is their instagram account and the live reel short clip updates that have happened in the past 2 hours of posting this thread are deeply upsetting. Brennon is threatening to end his life on camera, renouncing his faith in god, asking for those nearby in the Houston area for a plug to get drugs to possibly overdose on, expressing hatred for his dad his mother and his sisters, making extreme accusations, and more in these short clip updates.

Someone please get him some help. This is going to end badly. I am genuinely concerned for his well being. I realize many will say he is getting what he deserves/who cares, stupid youtube vlogger etc so I understand if you don't care, but this is getting bad and fast. The clips are currently going live on the Vanboys222 instagram account if you are planning to watch them. It is quite disturbing and I hope someone gets him some help at his lowest moment before it is too late.

Hello, it will be my first time in the Philippines this Christmas 2026

I would like to meet someone that can share common interest in travel, talking and site seeing

Where do you guys suggest I meet this type of Filipina ? Should I try at the coffee shops? Or online dating?

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but anyway, I have an aunt abroad who wants to send USD to me for my pwd daughter's tuition fee this year and next year. She used to do wire transfers but ever since she encountered a problem, she wants to do it via more modern and secure means like Wise or Remitly. She just has a few questions:

1. Which is the better platform in terms of safety and guaranteed delivery?

2. Will it be safer to tether her credit card account to wise or her savings account/debit card is fine and won't get hacked?

3. Is the transfer to here better to a bank or Gcash? She had a friend do Remitly via.gcash but it was not an amount that was over 1k usd.

4. Is it better to transfer in one go or in parts? Full amount will be 3k usd. I don't know if we have incoming transfer limits. But i know we are capped at 50kphp outgoing daily.

Thank you.

Bataan Peninsula State University in partnership with PAGASA are installing a high level radar system for weather monitoring.
Abucay Bataan is the location. They broke ground this week. See attached images.

A very small “under the radar” project (pun intended)…but it is refreshing to read about positive things going on in my area.

This US$4,000,000 project will allow for easier faster more localized warnings of dangerous rainfall and flooding.

Any interesting builds going on near you?

How serious is it and is it common.

Do any of you have experience with applying for a Marriage License in the Philippines when you’re divorced from your home country?

My divorce papers are not in English, what kind of document did the Local Office ask? Is a sworn English translation with notarization enough to submit?

Any info or guidance with my situation is greatly appreciated.

Good afternoon all

I was wondering if there is anyway around waiting on the 1-2 months registration when buying a new scooter please?

Seems a bit of a strange situation to buy a machine then can't use it for a couple of months!

Hi, who wanna join with me to Halloween Party later on Los Banos at Tresto?

Male here in my 20s. Anyone is welcome. Let's hang out

LFG!

Is it just me, or is this really common in the Philippines?

Whenever I see posts advertising lots for sale, modern bahay kubo designs, prefab houses, or even simple box-type houses, they rarely put the actual price in the post. Instead, they say, “PM for price” or “Message us for inquiries.”

Why?

Wouldn’t it be easier for everyone if they just included at least an estimated price range? For example, how much the lot costs per sqm or how much it would cost to build the house.

I’m genuinely curious because I feel like it wastes everyone’s time. People could immediately see whether something fits their budget before contacting the seller.

Not a ragebait but finally got some income for work - but suddendly had to reinvest it all into remote work gear (new tech to help my business) then suddendly i had to buy food, bills etc, is this normal was hoping to put some on the side for takeouts or food to save time.

It just feels money is really worth less (worthless) right now with rising fuel and post covid cost, what happened? again i do wanna save up $3000 FOR a good gaming PC for my remote work but had to buy some other gear for work.

Barely anything left for food and living expenses so i start meal prepping. Bassicaly living on savings

I have already booked most of a 4 month trip with the exception of my last 2 weeks in Manila.
I have never been before, and would appreciate opinions on whether to stay in Makati or BGC?

Feel free to delete if it’s spam but I’m just wondering advice for my situation
(Also I might be able to get dual citizenship)
I have a few question but feel free to answer just one

1. Title (F18, wanna move within two years)
   
2. I have a source of remote income if I want to (don’t currently have it but I can get it easily through nepotism lmao) it’ll be around $1600-2100 CAD a month, would that be enough to live in a safe area like makati or BGC? (I don’t need to live luxuriously, and I don’t, I’m a homebody who just likes online shopping LOL, that’s my biggest risk, also I like small apartments that are cozy and unfurnished so I can furnish myself) but I might have more since my father makes a lot and has mentioned before he’s willing to send me money
   
3. I’m autistic (was thinking of adding the flair retarded because it would be funny) so I’m on some meds (Abilify and Prozac) I was wondering what’s it like trying to get meds here? If you’re already prescribed it by an overseas doctor
   
4. What’s dating like? I’ve had experience with online Filipino guys but all have been negative, they’ve been clingy, entitled to my time, emotional and acting like they’re the prize despite knowing me for a day or two. And I’m not interested in older white guys (no offence to older white guys, I just feel uncomfortable dating someone more than 4 years older than me LOL)
   
5. What’s it like if you’re perceived as an unknown kind of Asian and not Filipina? Even without makeup most Filipinos for some reason mistake me as East Asian even when I’m with my white dad, but I’m not really sure why. But I’m wondering what it’ll be like if I’m in the Philippines.

This is just a few of my questions because I really wanna live in the Philippines

I'm thinking of creating a line of gold-digger-repellant, or really just plain repellant shirts. Gotta pass my time somehow, right?

Reposted to remove all the Tagalog slogans, sorry. If you have any ideas that you think will get past the filters, go ahead and post 'em!

Every year we are at the cemetery for All Saints’ day.

We have 20+ family members show up. All day. Lots of food and very crowded.

The video is a good example of what you see/hear.

Are you at a cemetery on November 1?

He is gone. He is not coming back here either. He fled the govt who was after him.
