I have watched a series of videos from a famous uploader on YouTube. He is from Israel and graduated from Harvard. One of the videos that impressed me the most is clips introducing the Philippines. He said if let him choose a country to live in, the most suitable country is the Philippines. The reasons are the following three: first off, there is beautiful scenery in the country. Secondly, the stuff in the Philippines is very cheap. Third, people in the Philippines all speak English. I have never been to the Philippines. I didn't know if he was telling the truth. Anyway, if I had time, I would go there to verify the matter. Is that possible? Who knows?

He said if let himhe had to choose a country to live in, the most suitable cwountry isld be the Philippines.
The reasons are the following three: first off, there is beautiful scenery in the country.for the beautiful scenery, the cost of living, and the fact that most people speak English.
Secondly, the stuff in the Philippines is very cheap.
Third, people in the Philippines all speak English.
I have never personally been to the Philippines, so .....
.... I didon't know if he wais telling the truth.
Anyway, if I had time, I would go there to verify the matter.myself to see if I agree with him.
to say that you're going to verify someone implies that you doubt they are telling the truth. In fact, you are really trying to see if his opinion is similar to yours.
Feedback
I'm not sure what is the purpose of the last two sentences? Of course anything is possible, and saying "who knows" reminds people of President Trump. It can be construed as infantile and is generally used more in a conversation than in writing.

"verify" sounds too formal in this context
Is that possible?
