When we asked expats and global nomads what they like and dislike about living in Cebu, they replied...

"NO regrets: been there except when I travel for 21 years. Hope to end it there but not in hurry: too much to look forward to each day: sea is warm, fresh food, cold beer. Life is great!," remarked another expat who made the move to Cebu, Philippines.

"Expats and digital nomads often appreciate the low cost of living in Cebu, as well as the friendly locals and the abundance of activities and attractions. They also enjoy the tropical climate and the beautiful beaches. On the other hand, some expats and digital nomads may find the traffic and pollution in Cebu to be a bit overwhelming. Additionally, the lack of reliable public transportation can be a challenge for those who are not used to it," explained one expat living in Cebu, Philippines.
