OUR PLAN FOR THE BEACH LAND in the PHILIPPINES and WHY WE BOUGHT IT | ISLAND LIFE

They said we were crazy for buying this land! After showing you our new dream beach property, we received hundreds of comments and questions. We're covering everything from our building plans, to dealing with typhoons, public roads, and even the neighbor's pigs! Plus, we take a break to grill up some fresh cuttlefish right on the beach and show you a strange trap we found on the property. Thank you so much to everyone who has followed our journey—we just hit 70,000 subscribers! 🎉 We are so excited to build the foundation for our family and share the next chapter of our island life with you.
