Hi Nick – I’m not familiar with Calinan but it sounds like a place I would enjoy. A little cooler weather would be nice.

Good luck with your move!

Hi Randy,
You have got that pretty right. I am looking forward to getting back to Davao for good in about 3 years with my wife from there. And her family is a big plus for me as they have accepted me as one of them and are all really great people.
We have a house half built out at Calinan, about half an hour out and up a bit so it is a bit cooler.
Can’t wait.
Catch you, Nick

Hi sir, I am an architecture student from Mapua Institute of Technology, Philippines and I am currently conducting a research on my thesis proposal entitled Subic Integrated Retirement Haven: THE PARADISE.

I’m glad I found your article while I am searching for any related literature. It is a big help in my study specially the reasons why you will retire in the Philippines.

If it’s not too much to ask Sir, can I ask you some other related questions?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH SIR and I hope you’ll enjoy your stay here in the Philippines GOD BLESS…:)

Oh yeah, green mango shakes are great! Got introduced to mango shakes at Paradise Island. I had a cold and didn’t feel like I could eat anything, so I filled up on mango shakes. With my diet, they have become a staple for me there.
