Vivre aux Philippines en 2026 : Les POUR et les CONTRE (La réponse OUI / NON)

Should you move to the Philippines in 2025 or 2026? 🇵🇭 As Thailand tightens its regulations and the cost of living rises everywhere, the Philippines is becoming an increasingly attractive option for expats. In this video, I give you an honest and unfiltered opinion on the REAL pros and cons of living here. Discover how it's possible to live on a budget of €400-500 per month, why Filipinos are so welcoming, and the secret to the tourist visa that allows you to stay up to 3 years! But it's not all perfect: I also talk about challenges like waste management, natural disasters (earthquakes, tsunamis), and the very different concept of privacy. We go far beyond the picture-perfect beaches. I share my firsthand experience so you have ALL the information before making your decision. #LivingInThePhilippines #MovingToThePhilippines #CostOfLivingInThePhilippines #ExpatPhilippines #Philippines #ExpatAsia #FrenchInThePhilippines #PhilippinesTips #Thailand #ExpatLife #expatriation #travelphilippines #mindanao #costofliving #philippinesvisa #digitalnomad #expat #tandag ✨ Welcome to my channel!
