ABOUT US

We’re an American and Filipino couple building a future between Orange County and the Philippines. We’re figuring it out as we go, sharing what we learn about retirement, finances, travel, and finding a place to call home.

WHY TWO COUNTRIES?

For us, two countries means two parts of our life: the life we’ve built in California and the future we’re exploring in the Philippines. We’re working toward more freedom, more time together, and more choices.

WHAT WE’RE WORKING TOWARD

Retirement. Financial freedom. Travel. A place to call home. And a future that gives us more choices.

THE LIFE WE'RE BUILDING
