My wife and I have done some non-traditional things in our four-and-a-half-year marriage so far, but one day we hope to go way out on the limb and do something I think is pretty unusual. Please subscribe to Love Beyond The Sea for our perspective on Fil-Am marriage, help for the foreigner interested in a Filipina wife and what can be done to sustain the marriage. Go right ahead and leave a comment and get notifications for upcoming videos. This video will be part of a playlist called Expat Trial Run.

For starters I met her on March 17 on line and we were married in the Philippines on May 10, a fast union. Some say to forget about Filipinas, they are just out to scam you but I disagree. I petitioned my wife to live in America, which she is, but that is a no-no according to many. My mother lives with us, unorthodox for sure but it hasn’t been a recipe for disaster, I think it’s been good for all of us.

The unusual way of doing things won’t end there, not if we are able to retire to the Philippines in let’s say four years, and live with some of her family members. You heard right, live under the same roof with certain family members. We built a house there that was completed in January of 2019, and it is a large house for that reason. I will link the playlist for you that shows it through different stages.

I didn’t start my search for a wife thinking it would go this way, but we believe God directed us to each other, and has a plan for our marriage that is good. As you probably know by now, family is exceedingly important in the Philippines. We might say that here in America family is important too, but we don’t often continue to live with them after marriage. I realize there is a monetary reason underlying that, but it has been part of the culture for so long that families have grown very close, which is a good thing.

Why on earth would I decide to retire in my early sixties to live in the Philippines with my wife under the same roof as some of her family? Don’t I value privacy? Don’t I want peace and quiet as if the roosters and karaoke aren’t enough to deal with? Shouldn’t we live several islands away from her family? Has my Filipina wife hypnotized me into agreeing to do this? What was I thinking? Alright, I will try to explain that in this video.

Whatever we do, I just want to be with my love beyond the sea!
