I was born in the Philippines. While it's one of the poorest country in the world, it offers a great deal of beauty and in general the people are very warm and friendly.
We have so many nice beaches and weather is quite permissible if you plan which month you visit and where.
Just like Hawaii, it's very hot in the months of May to September. This is the same in Nevada, Arizona, Texas and Southern California and even Minnesota (I lived in these states with the exception of Texas but I stayed in Dallas for three months due to our business).
Anyways, people speak English, and would've become the 50th state before Hawaii but didn't get ratified when the US granted our independence.
With the dollar ratio, a thousand dollars a month can make you live very, very comfortably.
Jav.... oh huh, then what? Nobody spends money to save the climate? I'm not into saving the planet if I'm going to live very primitively. Hahaha, I can't believe that's the solution because then the world stops spinning. Know what I mean?
I just had a conversation with one of the Russian as well as European on the forum and they both have a very different view as to who is at fault with the Russia Ukraine conflict. The Russian thinks Zelensky is a bad one. The other was defending Ukraine. In the end one said, this conflict has nothing to do with Ukraine. Russia is doing this for the west. Just doesn't make sense.
Of course it's changing, it's bound to. As a matter of fact science has proven so many fall outs of our universe. Even this earth will die, no escaping it.
But these fear mongering propaganda are just too unscientific.
I am a proponent of helping in the "saving the planet " but for heaven's sake what a panic mode he drove the population into.
I recycle everything. While I will probably not consider EV, I hope that the hydrogen vehicle conceived so long time ago and tested by BMW will be a good alternative.
The truth is, this earth is 4 billion years old according to science and it's going to vanish just like the other stars and or planets, maybe after a trillion years.
Wow. What a cruel mentality. Tail gaiting while it's truly annoying and upsetting, they wouldn't deserve such kind of retalion, me thinks.
It's not against the law to tail gate. It's not a courteous practice but doing that? Zapping? Geesh, if it ruins the engine, that's a very expensive part. My gosh, what's this world coming into. Wow.
Not to mention the possible accident it will cause and the inconvenience of the annoying tailgaters.
Highlights of your place and travels (bad or good)
Anyways, thanks for the post. Also I remember, Ellie and I was going to meet up, too.
