Cost of Living in Guam in 2021
How much does it cost to live in Guam? Is Guam a cheap tropical paradise or will it cost you a pretty penny? In this video, we briefly discuss the cost of living on the island. I talk about groceries, rent, transportation, etc...
*Disclaimer: This is only one American's perspective. There are an infinite number of variables that affect cost of living. The price of everything will depend on the needs, wants, and tastes of each individual. This video is an attempt to give the viewer a general understanding of the cost of living a stateside lifestyle in Guam. It is primarily targeted at people moving from the continental USA to Guam.

Not every day is filled with sweeping landscapes, hiking adventures, and underwater exploration. In this video, I tried to capture some of the beauty of everyday life as I went through an extremely average day! Our day-to-day lives are filled with beautiful things, but we rarely take time to cherish them.

GUAM | More Things I Miss About Guam | Can't wait to enjoy these things on my next visit!
#guam #guamlife #islandlife
After posting my first video about 8 Things I Miss About Guam, I started thinking about so many other things I miss from my beautiful island home! If you're a newcomer or you may be moving to the island soon, here are more things I miss about Guam!
WATCH THESE TOO!
8 Things I Miss About Guam:
Guam Nightlife and Entertainment:
Hiking, Snorkeling, and Scuba Diving on Guam:
1. Crown Bakery! Every now and then we would treat ourselves to the delicious donuts from Crown, located in Barrigada. There are a lot of awesome bakeries and donut shops all around the island, but Crown Bakery was closest to where we lived. Just a half dozen of their simple glazed donuts was perfect every time :)
2. Consistent weather! It's a no-brainer that Guam has a tropical climate year round, but what I miss is how I knew what kind of day it was going to be, and I didn't have to pack extra clothing or equipment. I especially missed the warm Guam weather when it was winter out here in Virginia :(
3. Tempura Egg Poki Bowl! Though I know how to make my own tuna poki, I don't know how to replicate Onigiri Seven's tempura egg. This spot is located on the Tumon strip across the Hyatt hotel, and the portion for the price was really hard to beat. Their delicious tuna poki bowls were our go-to anytime we craved poki!
4. No tax! This is a funny one, but you have to understand--after living on Guam my whole life and never seeing a tax item on my receipts, this was definitely something new I had to adjust to living out here in Virginia. It does somewhat balance out since import costs shipping things to Guam naturally raise the prices all around.
5. Mighty Purple! This tropical cafe is located in Agana, and they specialize in açaí bowls and smoothies. The setup is so fresh feeling! They also have some savory items on their menu, and one of my favorites is their taro bread sandwiches. Who wouldn't want a purple sandwich?? Definitely try their turkey taro sandwich with the Dinanche ranch--it is beyond yum!
6. Teaching dance! A few years before I left Guam, I was teaching at Body Arts Dance Studio, located in Agana. They usually offer majority ballet foundation classes, but I was hired to teach hiphop, jazz, and contemporary. Guam has an amazing dance community, and I absolutely miss working with my students, coming up with new choreography and ideas, and also seeing those ideas come to life on stage when we would have their seasonal concerts!
7. Tapcilong! You must try this dish at The Kracked Egg, an awesome breakfast spot located in Tumon. Pork longaniza, beef tapa, chicken tocino, garlic fried rice, eggs--what could be better?! Kracked Egg was definitely one of our favorite after hours spots to get some awesome breakfast food :)
8. Sunrises and sunsets! Though I've seen a few nice skies stateside, there's just something unique about Guam's skies where the sunrises and sunsets are absolutely breathtaking! The neat thing is that you don't even have to be beachside to witness the amazing colors. Almost every day you could see a gorgeous sky with vibrant colors, almost like something straight out of a painting!

Guam Neighborhoods - Tamuning Village
Tamuning Village was once the busiest shopping and entertainment village on Guam. Ben Franklin Department Store, and Gibson's Shopping Center, was the two most popular stores on island. Tamuning also had the biggest and most popular Movie Theatres on island, more on that in the next video. Today, while the building still exist, the business itself has changed, or is no more. Dededo village is slowly, but surely taking over the shopping and entertainment business on Guam.

04:15 The People

08:10 Personal experiences
0:46 Location - Where is Guam? We're a little island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, within the vicinity of Australia, Hawaii, the Philippine Islands, and Japan. It's very easy to travel from here to other parts of Southeast Asia.
1:34 Size - 30 miles long, about 210 sq. miles. As of 2021, its population is roughly 168,000. From personal experience, you could drive around the entire island in about 2 hours, which means commute from home to workplace is never more than 30-40 minutes.
2:10 Weather - It is consistently humid on Guam. Summertime is when the warmer temperatures are felt with highs between 88-91 degrees F and lows between 77-80 degrees F. You WILL sweat so dress light! Cooler temperatures in the 70s occur during the months of November to January/mid-February.
2:50 Religion - Guam is a predominantly Catholic community, but there are other smaller church groups such as Baptist, Mormon, Seventh Day Adventist, Methodist, etc. that exist.
3:09 Schools - There are 27 public Elementary Schools, 8 public Middle Schools, 6 public High Schools, and about 13-14 private schools that house a variety of grade levels. The two college level schools present are the University of Guam and the Guam Community College. Guam colleges are highly recommended if you want to pursue a degree in Marine Biology.
3:38 Military on Guam - There are two main military installations, one being Andersen Air Force Base in Yigo and the other being Naval Base Guam (Big Navy) in Santa Rita. There are other smaller installations around the island like NCTS, Naval Magazine, Naval Hospital, etc. which means many federal job opportunities AND a high turnover cycle for military personnel and families stationed on Guam.
4:15 People - This mini melting pot is home to so many! Ranging from CHamorus, Filipinos, tourists, military, and other Micronesian Islanders, you're bound to meet people from so many backgrounds and ethnicities. DON'T mix up the CHamorus with chods/chauds. A true CHamoru will be very welcoming and hospitable to newcomers while a chod/chaud will be more closed off.
6:38 Where to stay - This is a broad statement because the bottomline is that you should definitely explore the different areas and villages IN PERSON. From a general description, the noisier, busier parts of Guam would be the villages of Dededo, Tumon, Tamuning, and sometimes east Agana. The quieter areas that are away from the hustle and bustle would be villages like Mangilao, Yona, Talofofo, Inarajan, Asan, Agat, Santa Rita, Umatac, and Merizo.
8:10 Different personal experiences - I'm not going to lie and say everyone has loved Guam; people have either loved their time here or they've hated it. However, it all depends on what YOU make of it. Are you going to stay at home the whole time and miss out on potential experiences and friendships, or are you someone that will explore the island and make an active effort to meet people and discover all the hidden gems Guam has to offer? It's really up to you when you get here.

GUAM | Things I Miss About Guam | If I visit again, these would be the first things I do!
#guam #guamlife #islandlife
It's been about 9 or 10 months since I left my beautiful island home Guam, and now I'm definitely missing certain things that I can't get anywhere else. If you're a newcomer or you may be moving to the island soon, here are my top 8 things I miss about Guam!
1. Guam beaches! It is an understatement to say that Guam beaches are some of the most beautiful sites you'll ever experience. Not only are they gorgeous, but they're also so easy to get to! My favorite beach for fun, drinking, and sports was definitely Dungca's Beach next to the Jimmy Dee's bar in Tamuning. For quiet and calm scenery, I loved places like the Inarajan Pools, Lotte Beach, Alupang Drive, and so many more. These were perfect settings for meditation or a nice drive away from your busy lifestyle to just be one with nature.
2. My favorite dishes from certain restaurants! Granted you may be able to find dishes similar to these, but of course you can't get an exact match. Some favorites include the spicy tomato penne from Capricciosa, Manicotti and Fettuccine Alfredo from Vitale's, and the soups from Simply Food.
3. Fiesta plates! If you ever get invited to a village fiesta or family fiesta, you must go! You'll fall in love with all the local dishes prepared. Some of my favorite items are Chamoru BBQ, red rice, kelaguen, and pancit.
4. Coconut trees and flame trees! You know you're in a tropical paradise when there are coconut trees everywhere LOL! The more sentimental reason I miss coconut trees is because our dog Max loved playing with coconuts and husking them :(
5. Carabao Brewing's Coconut Porter! Living in Virginia now, yes I have access to so many breweries, but I have yet to find a dark beer that comes close to that awesome porter on Guam. However, that does make it more special because knowing that's the only place I can get that beer, it's just going to taste that much sweeter whenever I get to pay a visit back :)
6. My favorite bars! My favorite nightlife spots would have to be Horse and Cow, Old Traditions, and Porky's Bar. Horse and Cow has a great food and beer selection, but it also has a lot of fun elements for you active adults, like pool tables, a jukebox, video games, and beer pong tables. Old Traditions is located in the quieter side of Tumon, and it was our favorite spot to play darts, foosball, beer pong, and enjoy live music when they had it. It was also one of the very few places that allowed us to bring our dog Max with us, so that was pretty awesome! Porky's Bar in the busier part of Tumon was our go-to for live rock music, from 80's to acoustic, you name it. The positive vibe from everyone just having a great time, plus the awesome service from the friendly bartenders, made this an easy spot to have a fun night.
7. Rockit Ride! This rhythmic cycling studio was a huge part of my workout regimen. I would do 4-5 classes a week because I loved it so much! I haven't really looked around Virginia much to find a place like this, but I'm sure they got to be around here. More so, I'm so sad that I left when my sister started training to be an instructor and is now one of their main ones! I'd love to take her class if I get the chance to visit.
8. Snorkeling! I never knew how much I loved this until I couldn't get the same experience out here. Guam's waters are not only safe and warm, but they're also so clear, which means you can see exactly what you're jumping into LOL! Once you get in though, there are so many species of marine life--from jellyfish to turtles to black-tip sharks, you're always bound to see something whenever you go snorkeling on Guam. My favorite spots would have to be Fish Eye, Ague Cove, Gun Beach, and Gab Gab, but of course, there are so many other awesome snorkeling locations to discover!
