Meet Calvin, an American who moved to the Philippines 8 years ago to live the happiest chapter of his life. He shared with me why family is so important in the Philippines, how it feels to be the father of a 2-year-old toddler at 71, and what the biggest misconceptions Americans have about the Philippines. Enjoy!
