Dear Future Expat Living In The Philippines,

I Love Living In The Philippines!

If I had the information in this comprehensive manual, I would have been in the Philippines a year before I actually made it here.

Once I got here, I found a beautiful angelic Filipina half my age that treats me like a king. I just wish I hadn’t wasted so much time before I made the move. Fear of the unknown was a major factor that caused my delays. I can remove that fear by giving you the facts! If I can do it, anyone can do it. Look below, see for yourself!

I wasted a couple of years trying to find out what I needed to do to make the move. This book will make that possible for you in about an hour.

On The Filipina and Flirting

An Excerpt from Basic Expat Training

Flirting: It is taken me a while to crack this code. I offended way too many Filipina in the early days. But now, I have cracked the code. Let’s talk about it…”

“…You see, Filipina might flirt with you but if they do, you need to show respect first.”

“….Now had I pounced on this opportunity, I can assure you they would have become immediately allusive, possibly even offended.”

Flirting is an art in any land. For me it is a hobby. Once I came to the Philippines, I had to refine my art and approach it in a whole new way. It took some time but this eBook will dramatically reduce your learning time and increase your success rate with the wonderful ladies of the Philippines.

What Other Readers Have said:

I am in Lapu-Lapu Philippines now !! Thanks in part to you !

I enjoy his writing style, his bluntness and his southern charm that comes through on every page…as though the writer is actually across a table talking to you.

I just finished reading Rusty Fergusons’ BASIC EXPAT TRAINING. It is a “must read” for anyone contemplating, or making the move, from your home country to here in the Philippines.

It covers not only the logistical information such as visa’s, immigration and finance; but also the invaluable insights into the filipino people and their culture. Vital information that can only truly be gleaned from those who have “been there – done that”.

Buy the book even if you are only having passing thoughts of relocating or wondering “what if”. It will be the best $27 that you can spend in helping to decide to if a life in paradise is for you.

Kevin

Just finished reading the book and commend Rusty on a well written book. It covers so many different ideas of living in the philippines. I appreciate all the information given by someone who has boots on the ground in the philippines.

Especially all about the culture of the people there and what not to do was very informative for me. I learned from Rusty what to expect once there and what not to expect as well. This book has given me an insight that will come in very handy in my future adventures in the land of paradise. Thanks Rusty.

Jerry – Now Living In Cebu

Rusty Ferguson’s Basic Expat Training Manual is a great guide for anyone thinking of moving to the Philippines, it will easily save new expats hundreds of dollars. I have visited the Philippines before and also learned some new things from reading it. It covers preparations to make before your trip (visas, vaccinations, shipping stuff there), culture and the best ways of interacting with Filipinos and Filipinas, scams to watch out for, marriage and divorce, the lower cost of living, and ways of transferring money to the Philippines. Rusty’s ebook even has a 60 Day Money Back Guarantee if you are not completely satisfied.
