Could the Philippines be one of the smartest places for gay retirement abroad if you want lower costs, warm weather, friendly locals, and a bigger life for less money?In this episode of Queer Money, we're breaking down five affordable gay-friendly cities in the Philippines where LGBTQ+ retirees, especially gay men over 40, may be able to stretch their dollars, enjoy a more relaxed lifestyle, and explore early retirement abroad without needing Palm Springs money.The Philippines is a fascinating mix. Socially, it's one of the more LGBTQ-accepting countries in Asia, with visible Pride events, queer spaces, and a generally warm “live and let live” culture in many places. Legally, however, it still lacks some major national LGBTQ+ protections, including full marriage equality and broad anti-discrimination laws. So, yes, the Philippines can be welcoming, but you still need to know where to go and what trade-offs to expect.That's why we're ranking five cities using the Queer Money Retirement Rating, weighing affordability, lifestyle, LGBTQ+ vibe, healthcare access, expat friendliness, and overall livability.We cover beach-adjacent Cebu City, calm and modern Iloilo, clean and green Davao, artsy mountain-town Baguio, and our number-one pick, Dumaguete, a coastal university town with a strong expat community and surprisingly low costs.If you've been wondering whether gay retirement in the Philippines is realistic, affordable, or even fabulous, this episode gives you a practical starting point.Takeaways from this episode:Which five cities offer the best mix of affordability and LGBTQ+ friendliness in the PhilippinesWhere two-bedroom rents can be as low as roughly $450 to $900 per monthWhy the Philippines may be a strong geoarbitrage option for gay retirees and early retireesWhich cities have stronger queer visibility, nightlife, Pride organizations, or expat communitiesWhy popular places like Siargao and Bonifacio Global City didn't make the main listIf you're considering gay retirement abroad, retiring early, or simply want your money to buy more freedom, the Philippines may deserve a much closer look.Chapters:00:00 - Intro00:37:16 #5 – Cebu City01:51:14 #4 – Iloilo City02:52:58 - About the Philippines04:12:53 #3 – Davao City05:01:39 #2 – Baguio07:01:53 #1 – Dumaguete08:11:39 - Honorable Mentions: Siargao & BGC08:57:49 - OutroMentioned in this episode:Get Your Portugal Golden Visa Here!Your path to a fabulous retirement starts here!Unlock your free 10 Vital Retirement Numbers guide.

What if the thing you were seeking all along was right in your own backyard?Elaine Abonal was an exchange student in Florida when she first saw surfing—and something inside her lit up. But it wasn't until she returned to the Philippines and realized there were waves in her own country that everything changed.In this episode of Confessions of a Surf Lady: The First Women's Surfing Podcast™, Elaine shares how her surf journey started by breaking cultural expectations and carving out a new path in the Philippine surf scene. As a Filipina surfer, community builder, and entrepreneur, she's created something truly powerful: a space where people feel welcome, safe, and inspired to surf.We talk about her experience originally being one of the few women in the water in Siargao, what it's like to build surf culture from the ground up, and why inclusion—especially in the global surf conversation—has to come from people who live and breathe the culture every day.Main Themes:

Our guest today on the podcast is alternative pop songwriter Linying. Originally from Singapore and now based in Los Angeles, Linying crafts dreamy, atmospheric pop that wouldn't feel out of place alongside artists like St. Vincent, Mitski, or Men I Trust. In April, she released her stunning sophomore album Swim, Swim—a beautifully fluid record shaped mostly by her time spent on the remote island of Siargao. Exploring themes of love, self-discovery, and femininity, the album is a serene and introspective listen that rewards close attention. While we were in LA, we sat down with Linying to talk about this new chapter. We chat about how the solitude of island life reframed her approach to songwriting, her experience co-producing the record, and the lessons she's continuing to learn along the way. We also discuss her hopes for bringing Swim, Swim to the stage.Linying: Instagram / Spotify Find more information about Linying hereVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.

Diego Bello murió en la isla filipina de Siargao, a 12.000 kilómetros de su casa en Galicia. Fue abatido a tiros por varios policías que después dirían que Diego era un narcotraficante. Pero tanto la escena, como la historia, fueron manipuladas para hacer pasar por un delito lo que era una ejecución. Aquel día, Diego se despidió de sus socios, se subió a su moto y puso rumbo a casa, pero fue interceptado. Era la medianoche del 8 de enero de 2020.

October had its ups and downs. I missed an opportunity on the echo dots, but was able to get some more iPhones with a few more trips to the Apple store. I also experimented with Walmart and Target this month with some success.In the second half of the episode, I talk about our surfing trip to Siargao, flying on Philippine Airlines for the first time!Portland meetup reminder - 11/16 @ 4pm 

Poco podían sospechar los pescadores de estas islas tropicales que el carácter de su mar, esas duras olas que a menudo complican la faena a bordo de sus bangkas, acabarían colocándolos en el mapa de los mejores destinos del mundo para practicar surf. La isla de Siargao, el malecón Cloud 9 y el pueblo de General Luna se han transformado en una meca de la tabla encerada. Pero hay mucho más: los primeros turistas internacionales comenzaron a divulgar los encantos naturales de Caraga, una de las regiones más inexploradas de Filipinas. El coordinador cultural de su embajada, Joshua Miguel Hermosa Orille, nos invita a practicar island hopping; es decir, a navegar saltando entre islitas como Guyam, Dako o Naked Island. Contamos también con la compañía de Ane Corta, donostiarra residente desde hace varios años en Siargao y gran conocedora de la escena surfera de esta provincia al noreste de Mindanao. El guía Patrick June Ceniza, natural de Caraga, y la propietaria de la agencia de viajes Kara Tours, Jennifer Nanayakkara, nos permiten descubrir otras partes de la región como la ciudad de Surigao, la marisma de Agusan y los paisajes del archipiélago de Dinagat. Laura Pascual, directora de Woola Filipinas, nos muestra algunas de sus mejores playas blancas, lagos turquesas y montes tapizados de vegetación, incluido un bosque de bonsáis. La coautora de la web ViajarPorFilipinas.com, Claudia Rodríguez, completa nuestra ruta con estimulantes visitas: las cataratas Tinuy-An, el río Encantado o los pueblos costeros de Salvación y Lanuza.

This episode explores the resiliency of coastal communities in small island states like the Philippines and Honduras. The focus is on organizations like RARE and their projects, such as Fish Forever and Coastal 500, aimed at building capacity and resilience in these communities.

The podcast episode highlights the importance of building resilience in coastal communities, especially in small island states like the Philippines. The Fish Forever program by RARE focuses on working with local communities and governments to manage coastal waters sustainably. By empowering these communities to manage their resources effectively, they can adapt to changes in the environment and be better prepared for disasters like typhoons. One example mentioned in the episode is the case of a local government in the Tanyan Strait in the Philippines. The mayor of this region took proactive steps to protect the mangrove forests, which are crucial for coastal protection. By implementing policies to prevent deforestation and creating livelihood programs around the mangroves, the community was able to benefit from the protection provided by these habitats during a typhoon. This example showcases how investing in coastal habitats and involving local communities can enhance resilience to environmental changes and disasters. Additionally, the Coastal 500 program brings together mayors and government representatives from different countries to share experiences and solutions for coastal management. By creating a network of leaders who can collaborate and learn from each other, the program aims to strengthen the resilience of coastal communities globally. The exchange of knowledge and best practices among these leaders can help in developing effective strategies for managing coastal resources and preparing for environmental challenges. Overall, the episode emphasizes the need for building resilience in coastal communities by involving local governments, communities, and international partnerships. By focusing on sustainable management practices, creating livelihood opportunities, and fostering collaboration among leaders, coastal communities can better adapt to environmental changes and disasters, ensuring their long-term sustainability and well-being. In the podcast episode, Rocky Sanchez-Torona from Rare discusses the collaborative efforts among local governments and communities in the Philippines and other countries to successfully conserve and manage coastal resources. The Fish Forever program, initiated by Rare, focuses on working with local communities and governments to manage their coastal waters effectively. Through this program, communities are empowered to take ownership of their marine resources, leading to sustainable practices and livelihoods. One key aspect highlighted in the episode is the importance of building resilience within coastal communities. By involving local governments and communities in the decision-making process, there is a greater sense of ownership and commitment to conservation efforts. For example, the program in Siargao, Philippines, showcased how mangrove protection and sustainable practices were implemented with the support of the local government. This proactive approach not only protected the mangroves but also provided livelihood opportunities for the community. The Coastal 500 initiative further exemplifies the power of collaboration on a larger scale. By bringing together mayors and government representatives from different countries, the program facilitates knowledge sharing, mutual support, and collective action. The exchange of ideas and experiences among these leaders can lead to innovative solutions and best practices being implemented across various regions. Moreover, the episode emphasizes the role of partnerships and capacity-building in scaling conservation efforts. By training provincial governments, universities, and other organizations, Rare aims to expand the reach of their programs and empower more communities to take action. The goal is to create a network of empowered local leaders who can drive change and advocate for sustainable coastal management practices. Overall, the collaborative efforts among local governments and communities, as demonstrated in the Fish Forever and Coastal 500 programs, showcase the effectiveness of working together towards a common goal of conservation and sustainable resource management. By fostering partnerships, sharing knowledge, and empowering communities, these initiatives are paving the way for a more resilient and environmentally conscious future for coastal regions worldwide. The podcast episode featuring Rocky Sanchez-Torona from Rare sheds light on the impactful programs like Fish Forever and Coastal 500 that are making a positive impact by empowering communities and promoting sustainable practices. Here are some key points from the episode that highlight the significance of these programs: Fish Forever Program: The Fish Forever program works with local communities and governments to manage coastal waters sustainably. The program focuses on giving communities exclusive rights to fish in certain areas, leading to better management and protection of marine resources. By involving communities in decision-making and management, Fish Forever encourages sustainable practices and fosters a sense of ownership among the locals. Coastal 500 Initiative: The Coastal 500 initiative aims to bring together 500 communities and governments to share resources and build coastal resiliency. By creating a network of mayors and government representatives from different countries, Coastal 500 facilitates knowledge exchange and collaboration on marine conservation efforts. The initiative empowers local leaders to drive change, advocate for policies, and work together towards common goals for protecting coastal ecosystems. Community Resilience: The success stories shared by Rocky highlight how communities have embraced sustainable practices and conservation efforts. Examples like the protection of mangroves in Siargao and the establishment of savings clubs demonstrate how communities are becoming more resilient to environmental challenges. The emphasis on building capacity, promoting livelihood programs, and engaging in collaborative efforts showcases the positive impact of these programs on community empowerment. Global Collaboration: The episode underscores the importance of global collaboration and knowledge sharing among mayors and government officials from different countries. By learning from each other's experiences and solutions, communities can address common challenges and implement effective conservation strategies. The formation of alliances and partnerships at a global level enhances advocacy efforts, amplifies voices, and accelerates progress towards sustainable marine conservation. In conclusion, programs like Fish Forever and Coastal 500 by Rare are instrumental in empowering communities, fostering sustainable practices, and promoting resilience in the face of environmental changes. Through collaborative initiatives, capacity-building, and community engagement, these programs are driving positive change and creating a more sustainable future for coastal communities worldwide.

Hear about tourist spots in Mindanao, the southernmost island in the Philippines, as the Amateur Traveler talks to Lonely Planet guidebook author Michael Grosberg and co-founder of LikeLocal.io about his many trips to Mindanao. Why should you go to Mindanao? Michael says, "Most people that go to Mindanao these days go directly to the island of Siargao, which is one of the hottest, most happening places in all the Philippines for people to travel to. We'll get to that and it's deservedly popular. However, there's so much more to see in Mindanao. Mindanao has one of the largest cities in the Philippines the city of Davao. Davao is in the far south of Mindanao. It's got a cosmopolitan culture, amazing, wonderful food. The mountains and the islands around Davao are incredible. You can spend a month there. The highest peak in the Philippines, Mount Apo, which you can climb, and people do is only a couple hours or so from Davao." "There are endless coastlines to explore. There is indigenous culture. There are surfing spots. The city of Zamboanga, also has its own unique culture, a combination of Muslim influence, Malaysian, and Spanish cuisine. The whole coastline, the north, the east, really all over, are dotted with incredible beaches, and a lot of them are not really traveled to by foreigners, but Filipinos love to travel, and so Filipinos that go to Mindanao go to all these places." For a one-week itinerary, Michael recommends a visit to Cagayan de Oro, Camiguin, and Siargao. ... https://amateurtraveler.com/tourist-spots-in-mindanao/

After living in New York, London, and Manila, the former TV producer and now LGBT advocate Queenmelo Esguerra has resettled in Siargao, which has evolved from remote provincial backwater to a trendy, cosmopolitan surfing hot spot. Queenmelo, or Melo for short, tells Howie Severino what makes Siargao magical: the combination of natural beauty and an egalitarian vibe where rich and poor, native and foreign can freely play and socialize together. "When surfers go to the water, everyone is equal. It's just you and your relationship with nature," she says while dressed in her typical flowing kaftan and flamboyant shades. "They carry that attitude when they're on the ground." Queenmelo asserts that Siargao is one of the most open places in the country for the LGBT community. But she says the Philippines still has a long way to go in gender equality, citing the sleeping status of the SOGIE bill. Shortly after she moved to Siargao in 2021, Typhoon Odette struck. Queenmelo and a friend survived by taking shelter in a fire station. The next day, she swung into action, mobilizing friends to set up a relief kitchen that prepared hot meals for beleaguered islanders. Queenmelo has also helped rebuild homes and start community food gardens. Siargao people's response to their plight demonstrated their community spirit and further deepened their roots in their adopted home. As they rebuild, they have a chance to create a model for the rest of the country — in sustainable tourism and in socially just ways of relating to each other.

(Warning: Fans of Edgar Wright films may be offended by this episode. Don't listen to this if you identify as one.) Siargao. Meet Me At St. Gallen. Joker. Baby Driver. Blade Runner 2049. Scott Pilgrim Versus The World. These are six films that we hated so much that the hate manifested itself physically in our bodies. Join us as we discuss why these films made our blood boil. We also discuss the appeal of B-movies and fantaseryes amongst other sidebars. Not for the faint of heart, podpals.

This episode I take you on a tour to the Philippines. I relive the Chasin Philippines tour, a three week conservation adventure where we visited Manila, El Nido, Bohol, Panglao and Siargao. The Philippines is home to more than 7000 islands depending on the tide. The land mass of all these islands is around 300,000km2. The main language spoken here is Tagalog, but there are over 100 different dialects spoken there. The beaches are fantastic, the jungles untouched, the waters crystal clear, the food tasty and the people incredible! The key to have a trip like no other? Connect with the locals and the people that have spent plenty of time there. They know the spots! Or join me on the next Chasin Philippines Tour.

What is the essence of style? Sidney Yap has explored that very question over a long & storied fashion styling career that includes runway, editorial, TV/film, commercial, prenup, celebrity, and personal styling. Artistically inclined from a young age, Sid found his calling producing fashion shows for student orgs while completing his degree in business management at the Ateneo de Manila University. He went to on study at Parsons School of Design in New York, followed up by a stint in retail merchandising, before a quick styling gig had the industry knocking on his door to pursue styling full-time. The looks he created for celebrity and prenup clients are all over social media, but you've probably also seen his work in publications like Cosmo, FHM, Good Housekeeping, Lifestyle Asia, Manila Bulletin, Mega, Men's Health, Metro, People Asia, the Philippine Daily Inquirer, the Philippine Star, Preview, Seventeen, Star Studio (which awarded him Celebrity Stylist of the Year), the Star Magic Catalogue, and Yes! magazine. On this episode, Sid gives us a peek behind the scenes of a typical event or shoot. We also discuss finding one's personal style, Zoom dressing, the best-dressed member of BTS, his research into fashion history, and his zen approach to letting go of possessions. He also shares his optimistic outlook for what is ahead, after a rocky period for all. All in all, something cheery to kick off the New Year. This episode is dedicated to everyone who has had to start over from scratch this year. NOTE: We'd planned to release this episode in December, but put it on hold in light of the devastation caused by supertyphoon Odette / Rai in our hometown, Philippines. Our featured non-profit Lokal Lab is focusing on relief efforts in Siargao as well as longer-term plans to rebuild a stronger and more climate resilient island. If you're in Metro Manila and have clothing and other resources to spare, you may send in-kind donations till the end of January. They are also accepting cash and crypto donations from all over the world.
