I am hearing more and more that Buenos Aires in Argentina is the "new place" to live, retire, and/or visit. Buenos Aires has low crime, the economy is booming, and their medical options are fair and stable. Argentina is being compared now to what most of America was going through in the 1980s (in particular Miami, Florida). The climate is temperate, comparable to the southeastern U.S., however humidity is much lower because of the Patagonia plateau and proximity to the South Atlantic Ocean. Check out Buenos Aires, Argentina. I read up on it and it is indeed a fascinating development going on. I hope this helps. Good luck, and enjoy your retirement!

Hi
My brother lives in the Philippines, Manila, and loves it there. The climate is mild and even in the rainy season he still gets to ride his Harley some. Sometimes it rains hard, sometimes only a little. The people are generally very friendly, and helpful to strangers and while I don’t know for sure the exact exchange rate, a person can live well on 1000.00 a month.
I’ve been there a couple times and plan on going there again in a month or so.
If I didn’t have a setup in Pa. for retirement, I would consider going there myself. Herb

I retired to the Philippines. Nice tropical climate with friendly english speaking natives. Many nice resorts and resturants here and the cost of living is cheap. There are 4 good private hospitals and one brand new one with a full service cardiac unit 10 min from my house in the suburbs. Iloilo is a smaller city in the Cental Visayas (middle of the archepelligo). It’s perfectly safe to live here. There are quite a few other expats living here from many other countries.
