Is the Philippines Safe? The Dark Side of Paradise?

Описание: Is the Philippines really safe for foreigners?
After living here for over 3 years, I’ve seen the beauty, the kindness of the people—but I’ve also seen the accidents, the health scares, and the rising number of crimes against tourists and expats.
In this video, I break down the real risks of traveling or retiring in the Philippines:
🟢 Part 1: Personal Safety – Hiking, swimming, riding motorbikes, and getting lost in the provinces
🟡 Part 2: Health Dangers – Giardia, STDs, food and water safety, and vaccines you need before coming
🔴 Part 3: Crime Against Foreigners – Real stories of robbery, kidnapping, fake officials, and how to avoid becoming a victim
Whether you're planning a short vacation or moving here long-term, this is the no-fluff safety guide every foreigner needs.

✅ Learn how to avoid common mistakes
✅ Protect yourself from scams and disease
✅ Prepare for a safe and smart life in the Philippines
