20,000 in the Philippines

6 years ago
Hello i am a 35 year old man from the northeast United States and i am planning on moving to the Philippines in Oct of 2020. this move isnt going to be permenant but i would like to stay for between 4-6 months. i know the exchange rate and i am familiar that things are much cheaper in the philippines. i am wondering how far can 20,000$ US get me for 6 months....just for the record i do not want to live extravagantly over there...i want a simple 1-2 br apartment or condo in a decent area..TV and the basics. any and al tips would be helpful...also i work as a welder is it possible to supplement my income by doing welding in the phillipines?
