Back Cover "No country has it all. It therefore stands to reason that in order to have it all, living in more than one country is often a necessity." - Ladislav, Chief Advisor of HappierAbroad.com Are you tired of or dissatisfied with the following norms in modern America?     

The anti-social isolationist lifestyle where working and consuming are the only concerns in a culture where love, romance, passion, social connection, expression and genuineness are lacking or subdued. The lack of human connection and cold ice barrier between strangers in a paranoid society driven by fear. The constant feeling of insecurity, loneliness and social disconnectedness. The unattainability, unavailability or lack of women you desire, depriving you of quality female companionship. The fake social culture that doesn’t allow you to be yourself and denies all the above. If so, then this book is for YOU!

The GOOD NEWS is you don’t have to put up with any of it. There are many overseas cultures where all these norms are REVERSED! It’s one of the BIGGEST SECRETS, but you won’t hear about it from conventional sources due to the taboo nature and denial of these truths. For a breathtaking visual glimpse and proof of this, see the Photo Collage inside this book. Winston Wu, his friends, advisors and fans have been sharing their discoveries of a better love and life overseas since 2002. This grand book compiles together their testimonies, observations, experiences and comparisons which serve as a Gospel of hope for the countless frustrated lonely males in North America that there are better options for them abroad in the areas of love, romance, social connection and personal self-esteem.

HAPPIER ABROAD Why You Will Have A Better Love and Life Beyond America Your Ultimate Inspiration for International Dating and Living By Winston Wu Founder of HappierAbroad.com

"No country has it all, and most countries are heavily weighed in one direction and severely poor in another area. Countries that are materially rich are poor spiritually and socially. Countries with the best jobs opportunities cannot usually provide too many gorgeous dates. Countries with the most beautiful women have bad economies and rotten politics. It therefore stands to reason that in order to have it all, living in more than one country is often a necessity." - Ladislav, Chief Advisor of HappierAbroad.com

Foreword by Ladislav

There is an army of one million single men in America now looking for girlfriends and wives while the women are having a ball. About a decade ago, a Chinese government official warned that if the Chinese parents keep aborting female fetuses in favor of male ones, in one generation, there will be an army of one million bachelors roaming the countryside looking for wives. While the Chinese authorities are rightfully concerned about the fact that one million Chinese young men won't be able to find life partners and create happy families in the future, virtually no one in America is talking about the already existing huge surplus of young men who have to compete for girlfriends and wives in the USA. Numbers do not lie- have a look at statistics across the country and you will see that overall, young men outnumber young women by somewhere around 11:10. In some places it is 12:10 or more. Add to this the fact that Hollywood brainwashes young women that they deserve rich and handsome young husbands with big cars and great careers and houses, and the fact that 20% of sexy hunks with money and good looks get 80% of the women, and you have a recipe for a disaster for a simple young man who just wants a date. He can't get one because numbers and statistics are not in his favor. Social and demographic trends are not in his favor. The Puritanical culture of not talking to strangers is not in his favor. In other words, he is behind the eight ball when it comes to dating. However, the above cold facts are not even an issue in today's America and are not known to the average Joe. He is told that he lacks social skills to pick up women, that he needs to get a better job and improve his appearance, lose weight and develop confidence, pump some iron, take a karate class, all the while American women who dress like janitors and have bad manners apparently have very little problem dating handsome young men. That is the result of the imbalanced demographics in the USA. The solution to the problem is simple- the surplus men, many of whom are not in the most desirable category from the American woman's point of view, should go to places on Earth where there is a shortage of men and a surplus of women and where young women outnumber young men. Try it and you will see what I mean. Go to two cities- Moscow and Manila. You will see more young women on the streets than young men. Always. And guess what else you will see- women try to look better, they behave in a sweeter manner, they try and be nice to guys because if they are not nice, another woman will whisk the guy away from her- guys are in demand. You will see than instead of steely, supercilious looks that you get from women in the US, or no looks at all, your appearance as a man on the streets of Moscow or Manila will attract curious, friendly and warm expression of interest from young ladies all over. They will be asking you questions, flirting with you, and saying yes to a dinner invitation. So, why are they so nice? Because good men are hard to find there. The men can get a girlfriend any time they want, and at any age. They do not need to exercise, take classes in social skills, dress well or join clubs. And they are the ones who do the choosing. In many countries where there is a shortage of men, women stay virginal before they get married because no decent guy would want to marry a "used" woman. Why get damaged goods if there is plenty of fresh, brand new stuff to go around? "You are not a virgin? Get away from me! I don't need you!" is the attitude of the men there.

Men walk proud and tall there, they do not sing whinie, sweet songs to women, women sing those to men and about men. It is a man's world out there and a man's market. Do you want to be there? I bet you would. Also, in their economies, women have small salaries and need men to help them survive and establish families. A guy with a good job or any guy who can afford a decent date is hard to find. In their country, there is an army of SEVERAL MILLION LONELY BACHELORETTES who cannot find a good boyfriend. Is that where YOU would like to be now? So, the choice is yours: do you want to be a private soldier in the horny army of a million angry and frustrated bachelors in the USA who are fighting over a perennially small number of arrogant, capricious and self absorbed women and be chasing the will-o'the wisp that seems to always move away from you, or do you want to be surrounded by an army of a couple of million young bachelorettes? I bet that unless you are a glutton for punishment, you would choose the latter. That is why you would be Happier Abroad. Ladislav Chief Expat Advisor of HappierAbroad.com

Preface and Acknowledgements It is not easy to write a book like this that goes against the grain and transgresses many taboos. To do so requires passion, vision and a fervent dedication to a higher purpose. But when one follows the path of truth and conviction, one often receives help along the way. And that has been the case here as well. The more I wrote for and championed my cause, the more others contributed with their experiences, observations and testimonies. Together we validated and supported each other so that we knew we were not alone. This book wouldn’t have been possible without the help and support of many others. So I am deeply grateful and thankful to all my Advisors, Fans, Readers and Forum Posters for their contributions. Together we make a difference. I am proud to present this mega compilation of intellectual essays, compelling arguments, reasons, facts, photos, comparisons, testimonials and quotes from people all over the world that testify to a real hope and solution for lonely frustrated single men all across America for a better love, life and truer freedom overseas. It is a reality that has transformed lives and spirits. Many tales and observations from expats and perpetual travelers are presented who have experienced richer and more soulful cultures beyond the US Matrix. Though nothing beats personal experience, this collection is sure to be the next best thing. Deep down, everyone in this movement has lived by the motto of "The truth shall set you free" while speaking unprecedented truths that have not even been accepted in the alternative media genre yet. For that they should be commensurated as pioneers. So it is my hope that this collection will be a source of inspiration, hope and validation to you all in your quest for truth, happiness and an authentic joyful existence. In closing, I would like to again thank all who were a part of this work, either directly or indirectly. I give special thanks to my Expat Advisor Ladislav for his many contributions of wisdom and experience throughout this book which has greatly elevated the content to a higher perspective that I could not have achieved myself.

Photo Collage of My Dating Life Abroad Visual Proof that location alone skyrocketed my Dating Life from zero to infinity! (Like I've always said, if the problem is me, then why don’t I have the same problems beyond America?) They say that pictures say a thousand words. So see this Photo Collage below for visual proof of my claim that location alone transformed my Dating Life from complete hopelessness to everlasting abundance, and that women overseas are much more warm, open, friendly and easier to meet! (Even without reading this book, these Photos alone are sufficient to explain why I‘m ―happier abroad‖ :)) See what happens to a lonely isolated guy when he steps beyond the ―USA Matrix‖ to countries and cultures where he is in the action and game everyday, where he truly starts LIVING, where meeting girls comes naturally and is part of the flow of things, and where love, dating, sex, beautiful girls, romance, fun, adventure, and pleasure are no longer things he only sees on TV, but experiences in real life! See why many expats consider foreign countries a ―dating paradise‖. See my Dating/Love Life skyrocket from zero to infinity!

(More images of Philippines girls continued in this forum thread) Note: Also see my Foreign Female Encounters Film containing video clips of foreign girls I met, and my Approachable Faces Gallery showing a refreshing difference in attitude! Not bad for a guy who couldn’t get any dates in the States, huh? As you can see, once outside the USA Matrix, my dating life SKYROCKETS from ZERO to INFINITY, going from complete hopelessness to everlasting abundance! Love, dating, sex, beautiful girls, romance, fun, adventure, etc. are no longer things I only see on TV (like in America), but are what I EXPERIENCE in REAL LIFE! Thus, BEYOND America is where my dreams and fantasies come true and where I truly start LIVING! I don‘t even need any ―game‖ or BS seduction techniques either. All I have to do is step OUT of the USA MATRIX and be my naturally charming, funny, cute, outgoing, sociable, passionate self, and that‘s it! It all happens NATURALLY from there and my dating life turns around 180 degrees! As in real estate, dating is all about location, location, location! See these other testimonials that attest to this too! And how do you like the rich cultural scenic environments of Europe and Russia shown above? Breathtaking aren't they? Now you see how dull and lifeless suburban America really is. Now, compare all that above with my life in the States, which basically consists of working, watching TV on the couch, eating junk food, going to Walmart, and living a sterile monk-like existence without any fun, romance, love, sex, excitement, experiences or adventure, and perhaps then you'll understand why I'm so passionate about all this! Do you also see now that the world outside the US isn‘t as gloomy and dismal as the US media likes to portray? Being always ―in the game‖, and having beautiful cultural scenic environments to immerse myself in, I NEVER have to stay home and feel bored if I don‘t want to (like I was forced to in the States)! In fact, outside America I don‘t even need to watch TV since my REAL LIFE abroad is much more exciting than what‘s on the tube! This Photo Collage, in addition to the book contents, are MORE than enough real life proof of the claims in this book! Since I can meet, date, and romance beautiful women anytime I want, naturally and mutually, I am truly FREE! Plus, I am finally VALIDATED in that now I know that the problem wasn't me after all, but with the US social environment and culture!

Quotes about Winston Wu from Readers, Fans, and Advisors (Sources linked where possible.) “People can be divided into three groups Those who make things happen Those who watch things happen And those who wonder what happened You are in the first group Winston” - Ernie, San Diego, CA “Despite all the flak you get you are certainly an interesting character and probably the most famous (or infamous) self-made asian on the internet” – Rob, USA "Most Asians don't think for themselves. They simply follow the pack. You are one of the exceptions." - Jean, Colorado "You're probably the most atypical Asian male I've ever met." - Peter, an old Scottish traveler I met in Estonia who's been to nearly 100 countries “Winston, you are a White man trapped in an Asian man's body. All the characteristics I associate with Asian men seem to be the opposite of you. You do not do what society tells you to do. You do not work hard just for the sake of working hard. You find White women attractive.” – Jean, Colorado “As far as you being a banana – a white man trapped in an Asian body - I would like to qualify that you are not an American white man inside an Asian body but a European Existentialist - a Frenchman, Italian or Spaniard trapped in an Asian body. You are certainly not a modern Anglo-Saxon trapped in it.” - Ladislav, my Expat Advisor “I would say that yes, I have not seen even one Asian person like yourself. There are rebellious types and these are women often, and they rebel by joining the American mainstream. Same with Asian guys who start acting

42 “American”. But for an Asian to rebel not only against Asia but against America because it is TOO repressed for your taste, that is really taking the cake. To most Asians America is synonymous with a loud free place where you can shed your inhibitions.” – Ladislav, my Expat Advisor “Winston you are now an Asian American Moses, and you are leading your people out of the “captivity” of boredom, loneliness, lovelessness and datelessness to the various promised lands of milk and honey, many honeys that is and milk is to come later. Lol.‖ - Ladislav, my Expat Advisor “What I also love about this book is Winston's philosophical view of the world. I have never in my life seen an Asian guy with such a brilliant, philosphical mind. There have been times when I thought I was crazy thinking the way I was thinking, especially as it pertains to America and its awful, non-inclusive culture. However, after reading Winston's words, I totally feel relieved and vindicated, knowing full and well it's society that is crazy, not me!” – Steve Hoca, Amazon.com Review of Happier Abroad “Hey Winston...I see you‟re famous. Maybe not quite receiving the positive feedback that you might have been hoping for but nevertheless, you can see how much your stories of your adventures and thoughts have affected others. As I always say, the show must go on.” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm “Your tenacity is astounding. All the stuff you went through. Most people would have given up.” – From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=364 “Winston, even though i don‟t agree with all you are doing there, I do support your adventures and would to commend you for doing what many guys are far too chickens*** and cowardly to do ..so my hat is off to you and I would like to hear more about your times abroad.” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm "I love rebels and free spirits, I really do. And that's why I like Wu so much. There are so many people who turn into depressed potatoes in the USA. They just sit there and get more and more depressed. And if you don't fit in, they just label you a "loser". Wu didn't just sit down and take that. Wu rebelled against that." - From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=91 “To be honest with you Winston, I think almost all of the girls you hit on (and many of them you scored) are all very hot. This makes me wonder how you did it, especially the fact that you're an oriental. I know some guys who have a lot more than you, but they can't do anywhere near what you did (in terms of girls of course).” - Fan Mail, referring to the Photojournals “Winston, I am amazed at your ability to attract women that are much more attractive than yourself. I wish I had more of your magic. I consider myself much more attractive than you, but you seem to do better with the ladies. What is your secret?” - Fan Mail, referring to the Photojournals “I dont know how you do it, but whatever it might be (wit, charm, outgoing personality, etc.), i think you've got game (by that i mean confidence). Frankly, I think you just have an uncanny outgoing personality.” - Howard, USA, referring to the Photojournals “You are a monster asset for meeting women.” - Peter, expat living in Philippines and Central America “Photos prove everything they backup the talk. You walk the talk so to speak and very few of these other men on these Blogging sites can ever claim this not even the agency owners whom many are scamming many men.” - Derek, Washington “Wu-man, I got to give it to you. You have surrounded yourself by everymans passion. Hundreds of beautiful women. All thru history men have surrounded themselves and fought over the presence of women. Could there be any better reason to fight over. For whatever reason you have accomplished that feat. You have surrounded yourself by beautiful women… P.S. I believe that you can prove your point anytime.” - Fan Mail

43 “After reading all your ebooks and following your advice to visit Lithuania I did and met the love of my life. I really give you credit because you are 100% right. I'm never dating or going with a shallow, superficial American woman ever again. I would also like to let you know that I am getting married in MAY 2008. Keep up the good work Winston you do inspire people.“ – Fan Mail “Just thought I‟d say hi and tell you how much your writing inspired me... I think people “need” to read what you‟ve written” – Joan, USA “I enjoy your writing and you are one of the most inspiring dudes around. Main thing is you don't give a shit what other people (especially white) say about you - highly unusual, unfortunately, for any race of people, Chinese especially. So your stuff is absolutely awesome.” – John, USA “No B.S., you're a big, big inspiration and i'm glad to hear you're doing good in Angeles City. Sounds like heaven to me.” – Ernie, USA “The stuff you recommend, winston, has always managed to utterly CHANGE MY LIFE. Thank you for being an inspiration. You will never know how much it means to me!!!” - Elizabeth, Orange County, CA "I visited your website, happierabroad.com, and I agree with everything you write. You are my hero! You have spoken truths that many men do not understand. You have broken ground that many men have not... You are an inspiration!" – Mark, Washington DC “You are a hero for the underdog, proving that with balls and determination you can find fun, sex, love, and happiness…..” - Jeff, Atlanta “Winston the reason you are successful is that you admitted there was a problem and went outside the box to get what you want. Most people settle for what life puts right in front of them.” - Jeff, Atlanta "Winston you're one of the few people who will tell it like it is, even if it makes yourself look bad. I give you that. Most guys brag and BS and deny their faults. Like Dwight (our mutual friend) if you say something happened, it happened. And like him, you don‟t just talk about it, you DO IT." - Jeff, Atlanta “I'm currently 17 years old and like you I am a Chinese American. I love the ebooks you have online and I really enjoy hearing about your success with white women abroad. I have a research paper on "my hero" and I choose to do my report on you and your success.” – Joseph, USA “Winston, YOU ARE MY HERO. Nobody can understand you and your noble quest unless they have lived in Russia. What drove you will drive any real man who goes there, but you had the courage and balls to stick out horrible shit that comes along with the beautiful women.” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm “YOU ARE MY HERO TOO. Here I am with clinical depression feeling like I'm wasting my year after college and its honestly giving me hope browsing your photo collages and seeing that happiness is definitely possible, no matter who you are.” - Karen, Stanford, CA “You are a champ. Most of us, even if we did find the holy grail would either be too selfish or more likely shy and embarrassed to ever come out publicly the way you have. Your generosity of spirit is truly amazing.” – John, New Zealand “This guy is a legend… Read his long story and the photos (including the albums) and you will be amazed… my hero” - Reference from http://www.freewebspace.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2189614

44 “Listen, you‟re the man!” – Rick, USA "You are AWESOME!” - Fan Mail “You inspire me! Never change!!” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm “Your book was refreshing. I thought I was the only one who thought this way about American social climate.” Fan Mail “Your website truly is a treasure! It's making me more self-aware in areas that I may have been slipping into "typical American mode" in, and is opening my mind even more.” – Megan, Wyoming “Dear Winston, I have just read your article Propaganda vs. real life in America. I only wish I could be so eloquent - its as if you have been reading my thoughts. I came here for over 20 years ago searching for the stars with my 2 kids.” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive2.htm “I cannot express in words how impressed I am by your work and how accurate and true you are to yourself. I have lived in the US for 13 years now, and I can't but agree with every single word you wrote… Congratulations again on a job well done!!!!!” – Fan Mail “Everything you wrote in your treatise is precisely to the point… It took me a while to realize that there was a chasm of difference between the media picture of America and real life, but when the truth hit home, I felt very disappointed and empty. I even had a lapse of self-condemnation as I thought the problem was in me. I have gotten over it now and can see clearly. Your writing puts all the pieces of the puzzle together very well.” - Yuri, Russian immigrant “I am from Athens, Greece. I came across your web site while googling trying to find web sites with articles about the differences between Europeans and Americans. I am writing an essay for one of my courses at college and I needed that kind of info. I have to admit that I was hooked up by your articles. Many of the situations that you describe were like a revelation to me.” – Kostas, Athens, Greece “A GREAT WEB SITE! Thanks for the many hours of work it took to put together. Also I curse you for the many hours I‟ll spend reading it all. ;) Thanks again.” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive2.htm “Sir, first off, let me tell you in one word what I thought of your e-book... OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!! I'm currently reading it right now and it is great!!!” – Darryl, NY, Retired Air Force “I have been reading the stories and adventures of Winston, and like the rest of you I'M IMPRESSED!!!... I am striking out on a BOLD and NEW path for my life such as Winston did… I love how he persevered and finally got the girl of his dreams. WAY TO GO WINSTON...“ - From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=444 “Winston - what a fantastic site. Your trip to Russia makes me weep tears of laughter. Keep it up (as it were).” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm “Winston, as I was watching your adventures, I was thinking what a lucky person you are to have experienced so many things - regardless if they were positive or negative. You did this on your own, and you should be proud of yourself. Most of your enemies simply sit and write behind a computer, but you have lived it - which means a lot more. Think of how many men in the US will never have the chance to do what you have done. I guess what I admire most about you is that you been willing to share your experiences with the rest of the world to enjoy, and I am happy to have come across your site 3 years ago…“ - Giovanni “Winston keep up the good work. I really feel you are one of the more intelligent and insightful individuals out there on the internet. I‟m sure there are lots of American men of all backgrounds who agree with your articles.

45 Ignore the naysayers and bitter Americans out there who want to bring you down to their level. Be yourself and be happy with life. Life is short and sometimes that‟s all we can do is just be.” - David “Cheers Winston, Keep the faith! As Teddy Roosevelt said, „The only man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything.‟ You live your beliefs while your critics just sit back and second guess you...Godspeed!” - From my Guestbook: http://www.happierabroad.com/Guestbook_archive.htm “I like Winston's style because he lets it all hang out and that allows others to make objective observations. Winston blitzes into the unknown with his hair on fire and, for better or worse, allows others to live vicariously though his exploits. Some may not agree with Winston's modus, among other things, but nobody can deny Winston is a trailblazer.” - From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3392 ”Winston talks the talk, and he walks the walk. Thats more then can be said for most. Kudos Winston.” - From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3392 “I tell ya Winston, you are gathering quite the little fan club… Well, its like the old World War II motto goes; "If your taking flak, you must be over the target." – From my Forum: http://www.happierabroad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4020 “After months and months of observing your views and actually reading through your articles, and experiencing various American people, I made a conclusion that you are correct and I fully agree with your views on Asian/American mentality vs European/Latin/Australian mentality. I would rather be happy and live life to the fullest than rot my life in bad quality with large money that cannot buy happiness. Thanks for your enlightening articles.” - From a former critic of mine "I thank you Winston from the bottom of my heart for showing me and other lonely men THE WAY to PARADISE. You beat out ALL of the PUA propaganda, so called “guru's and experts” out there and you actually are OUT THERE DOING instead of just talking about it. Those seduction books I use to buy are total GARBAGE compared to what YOU'VE proven and you put PUA artist and experts to complete shame with SIMPLICITY and REAL PROVEN SOLUTIONS WINSTON..." - Dwayne, NY "Thank you Winston for all of your help. Your knowledge and experiences are inspirational and GOLDEN and you are well liked and honored by MANY. Do not let the HATERS get you down. Because these types of people will not do for themselves, than to bash you all day in B.S. topics and post. Why don't they step outside the matrix and go abroad to be happy also? Keep up the good work my friend. You're doing EXCELLENT !!!" - Dwayne, NY "It's such a wonderful time in my life and YOU are the person I
