Rice Balls

So today was a practice making Rice Balls 

Filipinos love these and so do I !! 

Living in the Philippines ( 2 months in )

   So it's been 2 months of living in the Philippines and I have sure experienced a lot of things , from strange foods to religion and of course being introduced to the Gun culture . Staying here for only a few weeks or even a month is just not enough to understand how the Filipinos mind work and how hard life is .

   Filipinos are somewhat lazy as you see many on the streets sitting around , chatting and doing nothing whilst they wait for the Evening time to approach so they can get hammered on the local wine and beer ! , so this country is the place to be if you enjoy drinking,smoking and eating everything fried !.  After being here for some time you get to understand the cost of living and each 1000 peso bill means something and it's no longer play money as one starts to look around the stores for cheaper foods to buy instead of buying from the imported food section in the local super market or even the 7/11 .

   Making Money is hard here and it's mostly small change everyday so you will not get rich no matter what business ideas you come up with ! , trust me , I have heard them all and seen many fail but people keep on thinking about the same ideas when it never works ! .  The only income that's stable enough to live on is a Pension ! ...  anything more is just top up money .

  The life for me is to work in my own country and spend plenty of time here building my future so when I choose to retire early everything is set in place and I can enjoy the rest from chasing money all my life . Many expats are old and just live out their days on a pension which is fine but being only 40 i just can't do that as I am good for atleast 10 years of work yet ! 

Let's see how my next few months go ........
