We do have some excellent family members close to us who have never asked anything from us at all. They live just 20 mins away by Jeep, so quite close by.
In fact they have been a great help and support for us. They're business people from the Bohol side of the family. All our Bohol side are business people.

We've also been very lucky with the new friends and neighbours. Most of them have much more than we do and are very kind and helpful to us.

A year ago we were almost ready to spend a small fortune refurbishing our beach property in the province.
Thank goodness we decided against that after some friendly advice from within the family circle.
We've given that place to the family members living there and signed over the title. Too much expectation from too many lazy

We're very happy these days with our own lives and no stress.
