I scrape by with my rent from UK property, trying my hardest to not work too hard, promised myself I would retire at 50, 53 now so something went wrong.
Faith and I were just taking a walk and talking about this very thing. I reckon we have 10 years at least to go. It's depressing.
It's been a long haul but we are now mortgage free and living the simple life so things could be worse. That said we were reliant on koz's wage here from teaching diving and that's pretty much dried up with the exception of one or two courses.
In a attempt to stretch funds we are moving to a cheaper apartment at the end of the week. Slight backwards move but makes sense in the current climate.
Smart to make changes quickly if required. A single back-step is preferable to a fall down the ladder right? We are working towards the same; A simple life and the ability to live a little more free from the pressures of society. It's a daily focus. I hope the dive-work picks up.
It's going to be a long haul, the Philippine government are dragging their heels and until we see a return of tourism things will stay pretty slow.
The only saving grace at the moment is a few tourists rode out the lock down but there are only so many feet on the ground and that will dry up shortly.
Whatever this is all out of our control so we will have to wait it out and hope for better times to come.
Yeah, such a pain in the ass. We're feeling it here in Australia too...All around the world I guess...And the shit of it is that there is probably a lot more pain to come. We have to stay positive and be grateful for what we have I suppose. Hard at times, but what choice is there?
Yup iv'e seen the numbers are on the up there, also back in Europe as soon as they opened up numbers spiked. I'm at a loss as to how this is going to work itself out, the hopefuls (hope fools maybe) think a vaccine is just around the corner but I think this could go on for years.
