   <title>How I Met My Filipina Girlfriend — Why I Moved to the Philippines for Her ??❤️ The Full LDR Story</title>
   <link>https://www.gocektv.com/how-i-met-my-filipina-girlfriend-why-i-moved-to-the-philippines-for-her-the-full-ldr-story_8f391bb85_8f391bb85.html</link>
   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://www.gocektv.com/uploads/thumbs/8f391bb85-1.jpg"  /></p>Ever wondered what it’s really like for an American to move to the Philippines — or what happens when you fall in love with a Filipina online?

This is the true (and full)story of how I met my Filipina girlfriend, Sarah — and how one message turned into a life-changing journey from Oregon, USA to the Philippines.

In this video, I share what it’s like dating a Filipina, preparing to move abroad, and starting a new life as an American expat in the Philippines. From our first video calls to the moment I packed up everything I owned, got my passport, and took a one-way flight — this is how it all began.

If you’ve ever thought about dating a Filipina, visiting the Philippines, or even moving here to start a new chapter, this video will give you a real, honest look at what that journey is like.

? Chapters:
00:00 – Where We Are Now
00:42 – How It All Started
01:23 – My Life Before Moving
01:29 – Why I decided to Move
02:14  – The Decision to Move
02:45 – The Journey to the Philippines
05:03 – Landing in Manila, Philippines 
05:15 – The First Meet
07:35 – Our Thoughts After Meeting
08:58 – Our First Night Together
09:19 – The Months After
10:04 – Looking Back

If you enjoy videos about expat life, cross-cultural dating, or what it’s like living in the Philippines as an American, subscribe and follow our story as we travel and build a life together.

   <title>The Challenges of Being an Expat Partner | Gabriela Encina - Expat Psychologist</title>

   <description><![CDATA[<p><img src="https://www.gocektv.com/uploads/thumbs/467e31e73-1.jpg"  /></p>I'm an Expat partner ?‍♀️. I moved to become an Expat for love.


After two years of a long-distance relationship, we decided that I was moving to Vienna, and the only choice that we had was marriage. So that's what we did. 


#expat #lifeabroad #onlinecounseling


A couple of months after my arrival, I wasn't in a good place. Highly negative and secretly blaming him for it. We fought a lot and started to resent each other. 


That was 14 years ago.


I now dedicate my professional life to helping Expats cope with this challenge.


Are you becoming or are you an expat for love? Do get in touch with me; I'm here for you!

Bonjour !

After 8 years living in the south of France, I thought I understood the carte de Sejour/visa renewal process pretty well. Apparently… I don’t. ?

In this video, I share a very real behind-the-scenes look at what happens when you try to renew your carte de séjour, prepare for the French civics exam, and navigate a system that feels determined to test your patience. This isn’t usually a rant channel… but today? I go there (a little)!

But somewhere between visa headaches, cherry trees, kind strangers, and reflections on why I moved to France in the first place, this walk turned into something better and more positive than I expected.

Come walk with me and hear my latest news!


Take care and À bientôt !
Patricia
