About this camp. I had a good time camping here, despite the getting swarmed by termites around dinner time. But because of that I learned that in these cases we just have to wait it out. After about 30-40, they land mainly on the ground. Just be sure to cover your food and close your bags and containers to prevent bring them home with you.
I don't really have much to say. The campsite is great, though it gets really muddy on a rainy day. So best to go here when it's not raining, or if it is just pick a good spot where grass is plenty. Just be sure to avoid areas where water might pool when it rains.
If you want to know regarding their amenities, there are 4 toilet and bath. Yes, they're clean and has running water. For washing your kitchenware, may hugasan naman just let the water run for awhile kasi mukhang may sira yung tubo and minsan brown yung tubig. It's ok, just let it run baka hindi lang nagagamit ng madalas kaya ganun.

Very calm relaxing and stress reliever this vide. Inspired me to go and camp out again. The termites are EPIC though.
Hello! 👋🏼 I sure wasn’t expecting them, 😅 happy to know this inspired you to hit the outdoors again, we all need to reconnect with nature once in awhile at least. Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼
I have bad content, but thanks to you I have something to learn from you, thank you for such content.
Hello Ivan! 👋🏼 Thanks for watching. I appreciate the kind words man. The word “bad” is subjective, just keep doing what you do as long as you find joy in it that’s what matters. Not to be preachy 😅 but we can be more kind to ourselves. All the best man, looks like you got some cool content yourself - heading out camping today I’ll check out your videos when I get! 👍🏼 Stay safe out there! Cheers! 🍻
Nice lighting sets the mood even to the insects.
Hello Carlito! 👋🏼 Thank you for watching Sir.. I appreciate you taking notice of the tiny details. 👍🏼
Great video mike! I appreciate how much effort you put into the mise en scene being careful not to show the cameras and whatnot and taking the time to position your cameras and get back in the car to get the drive by shots. And the color palette you’re using to color the video is spot on. Please keep posting videos of our beautiful countryside.
I particularly enjoyed seeing the annoying parts of camping in this video. Good to learn that you just need to wait the flies out. I’ll remember that tip.
Hello Paolo! 👋🏼 Thanks a lot for the kind words and acknowledging the work that goes behind these videos. I appreciate that. 🙏🏼 NapaGoogle ako dun saglit, 😅 but really thank you. Happy camping and hope to see you around. ❤️🏕
Those flying things look big, what they was? Somekind mosquitos size of bird? :D
Hello Valerie! 👋🏼 They’re winged termites, they fly out of their colony in search for a place to build a new one. 👍🏼
Ok, thanks for answer and thank god Finland is too cold place for those big winged termites. :D But still cool videos with nice view. (Y)
You live in a great country. Hope I get to visit one day. ❤️ Thank you, Valerie. 🙏🏼
Another great video sir. Keep it up
Hello Andrew! 👋🏼 Thank you for the support! 🙏🏼

New sub
..cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
Hello! 👋🏼 Thank you I appreciate the kind words. 🙏🏼
@@mike_penaranda Thank you very mutch... have a nice Weekend.... see you….
Your content is great! Glad YT made me stumble on your channel. I’m a Peñaranda on my mothers side(Pototan, Iloilo) so I’m not sure if we’re related 😂 You’re inspiring me to go overlanding! It’s great to see a Pinoy camping creator for once 😁 keep up the good work. New sub!
Hello! 👋🏼 Thank you for the kind words! 🙏🏼 My uncles would say all Peñaranda could be related, so maybe five or six generations back. Haha! Glad you found my channel, good to hear you like the content -- means a lot. More videos coming soon, thank you for the support. ❤
By the way we are from Surigao City, you can look it up there's a street named after the family name - my great-grandfather 😅 He was originally from Southern Leyte if I'm not mistaken. 🙂
That’s exactly what my family would say too!hahah especially when they say there are Peñarandas in the Leyte and Surigao regions. That’s so awesome 😂 we got lots of family over at mindanao too
There are good camping spots in Cebu that I’m looking forward to camp in. I drive a Toyota Vios so I hope that’s good enough hahah
Looking forward to follow your journey! Your videos are the kind where one can keep replaying them even in the background. Will share your video to my fam. Maybe someone’s bound to recognize you haha!
Nice video sir Mike! It's like we're in the camp with you. So relaxing! By the way, how's the road noise of the BFG Ko2? Contemplating on switching to these tires
Hello Terex! 👋🏼 Thank you for watching and the support! 🙏🏼 In terms of road noise I don’t find them noisy, I barely notice them kahit sa expressway. They say na masmatigas sya kumpara sa ibang gulong but that’s mainly because of its load bearing capacity. I consider that a pro than a con. With the right tire pressure overall I have no complaints. Looks good pa kahit anong sasakyan mo ikabit. 😁
Ingat po lagi sir
Thank you for the support, Choi.. ❤️
Hi. I would like to suggest to get a mosquito/insect killer lamp, the violet light. I bought mine on lazada and so far its good. It's needed to be plugged in in a powerbank tho. But itll help you keep the flies/mosquitoes away. Hope it helps. Stay safe and happy camping! :)
Hello Carla! 👋🏼 Thank you for the suggestion. I was considering yung swatter talaga yung parang racket 😅 would’ve been perfect that time with the swarm of termintes. Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼 Happy camping and stay safe out there. ❤️
Hi there Mike, I've just discovered your channel, love your kind of content! Seeing you sleeping inside the Jimny made me wonder: what temperature did you have there at the time? Best regards!
P.s.: later in the video I noticed the "25°C" on the smartwatch - personally I'd find somewhat hard to sleep inside the car at such a hot and humid climate.
Hello André! 👋🏼 Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed the video. 🙏🏼 It was about 2-3 degrees colder outside the car and I did have the windows slightly opened for a bit of ventilation and a portable fan inside. It’s not exactly a comfortable temp but the fan helped a lot.. 😅
Hi Sir waiting for your next vlog 🤗
Hello Angelica. 👋🏼 Thank you for the support. 🙏🏼 Currently editing one now as we speak. 😁 Should be up within the week. Maraming salamat, I appreciate you. Sorry if it’s taking awhile.. 👍🏼
@@mike_penaranda Yayy, will wait for the upload Sir. Thank you
As usual, great vid sir. May I know where did you get your mini lamp?
Thank you for the support Sir! 🙏🏼 Got them here,
s.lazada.com.ph/s.USZSX
Has two modes. Lasts up to 8hrs on brightest setting, masmatagal pa on low. Hope this help, Myk. 👍🏼
@@mike_penaranda thank you for the prompt response, sir Mike!
Idol, ganda ng set-up mo! The best! Tanong kolang anong klase at model na drone gamit mo? Slmt
Why don’t you get some mozzie screens for your windows & back door. I got that for my van & now I hardly need to use my fan on a hot night.
Great viedo bro! Can I know if your Jimny have changed the suspension before? or using the original one? Thanks~
Thank you bro! 🙏🏼 Yes it’s lifted 2” with H&R springs and Bilstein B8 shock absorbers. Rides great 👍🏼
@@mike_penaranda Thanks!! One more question, may I know the spec of your dean wheels and tyres? I’m choosing from japan market but dun know which one is good🙇🏻♂️
@@hokai1638 These dean wheels are 16s, not sure about it's width and offset, and my tires are 215/70R16, some could fit 235s but I feel those are too big and could affect on-road driving feel and fuel efficiency which is already not very good. Rides comfortable also close to stock wheel & tire dimensions.
Hi Mike, thank you for sharing this video. we're planning to camp here soon. from your perspective, is the trail ok for an (auto) Xpander GLS 2022?
Hello Jezzie! 👋🏼 Thank you for watching. 🙏🏼 the way to Epic Parc is very accessible for any types of vehicle, as for the campsite there are some spots lang na malambot ang lupa kapag maulan avoid the muddy areas lang, but on a sunny day you should have no problem. Happy camping! ❤🏕
@@mike_penaranda sounds amazing!! thank you for the tips! good luck to your channel and looking forward to seeing more.
Thank you.. 🙏🏼❤️
💯
Hello Christine! 👋🏼 Thank you for watching the video. 🙏🏼
What camera did you use? it's so cinematic! even the scoring when the bugs came in HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA binging your vlogs!
Hello Ken! 👋🏼 Thank you for the support! 🙏🏼 I’m using a Sony a6500 with a 30mm f/1.4 lens 🙂 Thanks for watching the videos. ❤️
The music you used in the drone shot 😮
Dreamy right? 😅
That's the way you do a video! Is there a a shower/rest room there and a kitchen? Ty.
Hello! 👋🏼 Yes they do, and clean at the time I was there. There’s a place you can wash your gears yes, not the nicest but it works that’s more important 😅👍🏼 I appreciate the compliment, thank you. 🙏🏼
You should try VAN LIFE
Hello. May I know what is the brand and size of your canopy? It looks sturdy and withstood the rain, woul you recommend this? Cam you also share the brand of your table as well as the brand/size of your carry on bag for your cookery. Thank you so much!
Hello Susan! 👋🏼 I don’t really recommend the tarp, but for your info it’s a 3x3 in size - high altitude yung brand it’s lightweight pero doesn’t deflect heat very well.
Yung table I got it here: shope.ee/5KZB54kTL8 - Highly recommended seller for your other camping needs. 🙂

Happy camping and stay well. ❤️🏕
Great video sir!! Sobrang ganda ng context and vid editing. Nakakatanggal ng boredom dito abroad. Keep uploading sir, nakakapag pakeep ng sanity ko or mga ofw yan. Anyway sir, ask ko lng why not opt in rooftent? Dami ako nakikita naka rooftent sa jimny nila. (Jimny fan din, planning to buy soon) Hope you answer sir!! Already subscribed to our channel. God bless!
Hello Ejuster, 👋🏼 thank you for watching and supporting the channel. 🙏🏼❤️ I would like to try camping with a roof top tent someday, but personally I prefer mobility when camping. I seldom use my awning narin I prefer to set-up an independent tarp for the same reason, mobility. I have not tried it, maybe one day just for experience. Also we don’t really have issues with wildlife here in PH unlike in Canada or some part of the US where bears and the likes is a concern. In that scenario an RTT is necessary to keep you safe above ground.
I just realized that you haven't spoken at all during the video, it was like I could hear your voice unconsciously. It was kind of poetic.
Hello Mima! 👋🏼 That’s a very nice compliment I appreciate that. ❤️ Thank you for the support! 🙏🏼
I guess Mr. Mike is also a follower of FISH13, a Korean vlogger, who is also doing this Car camping. I'm so enticed with his videos and I'm glad to know someone from the Philippines is doing the same thing, very inspiring. 👏👏👏
Hello @@prettyjaded27! 👋🏼 I've seen some of FISH13's work, but I'm more of a Morinone and Picnicamp guy. 😅 More of Morinone, his work inspired me to do my first car camping early last year. But they all do great work, don't get me wrong. FISH13's got premium stuff, I love his cars! Haha! Checkout Picnicamp and Morinone as well if you haven't already. Honored to be compared to someone like FISH13, thank you. 🙏🏼
Hi, beautiful video. Just want to ask, kaya ba papunta dyan ng Mitsubishi Adventure, 2x4 lang sya? I've been to Mt Kulis, Viewscape and Marci's Campsite, all in Tanay solo camping and I really enjoy solo camping like you. :)
Hello Rino. 👋🏼 I replied to your DM. 😃 For the benefit of everyone, yes maayos yung daan to the place but be careful lang when going around the campsite on a rainy day kasi medyo maputik and may areas na malabot ang lupa. While I was there may Adventure na nabalahaw sa dulo nung may maraming puno na area. When in doubt, always get of the car to asses 🙂 Hope this helps. Where I camped there should be no problem there, maputik lang talaga pag maulan.
Hi Mike, thanks for the great videos. I really like the look of your Jimny. Have you painted the front roof and wheels or are they vinyl covers on them. What wheels are you using on the car.
Hello Johan! 👋🏼 Thank you. ❤️ Yes, the roof and front grill are painted to match the rims. They’re the Dean Cross Country wheels 16”.. Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼
Hi Sir Mike, is your roof painted or wrapped? May I know where you had it done? Thanks
Hello Drich! 👋🏼 Roof is painted, wish I could tell you but I don’t know where the previous owner had it done.
Thanks!
Nice Video po. Ask lang po kung may Signal ba ng Globe sa area?
Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼 yes, may signal sa camp..
San lugar po yan sir?ganda ng view..salamat po sir🇵🇭🇸🇦🤙🏻
Tanay, Rizal lang sir - yup, awesome view indeed. 👍🏼 Thanks for watching.. 🙏🏼
@@mike_penaranda sir saang campsite sa tanay yan?ganda ng place sana makapag camp din kami jan..
Hello Karem. 👋🏼 Entrance nila is along Tanay-Sampaloc Rd., mga 1hr 15mins drive via Marilaque. Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Hi Sir Mike ask ko lng po anung brand po ng Tarp nyo Dyn na ginamit at size po.Thank you, more camping to come.
It’s a 3m by 2m, I wouldn’t recommend it. Get a Naturehike na meron meron silver coating sa ilalim para hindi masyado tagos ang init lalo na sa tanghali.
Check this one, 👍🏼

@@mike_penaranda Thank you Sir Mike Enjoy po sana Minsan makasama nmin Kyo sa Campsite
Mukhang new tarp ah hehe. Mind if I ask about the size? Thanks!
Haha! Had this for awhile di ko lang nagagamit, finally found a way to appreciate it. It’s a 3x3 meters, though a 4x3 might be better 😅
Grabe effort sa pag change ng camera angles! How many cameras Sir?
Just one, haha! 😅
Mike, pag ayos na yung camp namin in Tanay, I’ll invite you!
Hello Tony! 👋🏼 Thank you.. Looking forward to it.. All the best! ❤️🏕 DM mo lang ako sa instagram. 😁
Great vid po! what camera are you using sir Mike?
Thank you, Michael! 🙏🏼 I’m using a Sony a6500 with a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 lens.. 🙂
@@mike_penaranda Amazing! thanks po. Keep the vlogs coming po sir Mike. Mabuhay po channel nyo!
Thank you for the support! 🙏🏼❤️

Hello Vishnu! 👋🏼 Thanks for watching.. 🙏🏼
Ano ang drone niyo sir? Nice content sir lagi ako nanonood at I am also planning to car camp. Sana makasama ako next time..
Hello Marcus! 👋🏼 Thank you for the support. 🙏🏼 I hope you’ll enjoy car camping as well, and maybe I’ll see you around. ❤️🏕 Happy camping! 👍🏼
Drone ko pala is the Mavic Mini, the first one medyo luma na but still does the job. 😅👍🏼
19:46 moth in the pan
Any trouble with mosquitoes boss?
Meron din but not that bad, more of winged termites not sure lang lately since it doesn’t occur every night naman yung ganyan pero nawawala din after awhile..
Hi! Chainsaw noise ba yon?
Hello Mac! 👋🏼 Yes.
san po nabili yung parang tent na bubong lng po tia
Ah, roof top tent? Mga outdoor shops sir like @overlandkings, Mototesto or Frontrunner.. Check them out online for more details.. Hope this helps. 👍🏼
Sir di ba maingay ang jimny sa loob? Asking lang po hehe
Hello Patrick! 👋🏼 Like road noise when driving? Hindi naman, I’m running all-terrain tires no issue with road noise. Maririnig mo engine pero hindi naman maingay.. Hope this answers your question. 😅👍🏼 Thanks for dropping by. 🙏🏼
Where in Tanay?
Hello! 👋🏼 The entrance is along Tanay-Sampaloc Rd. 👍🏼 Thanks for watching! 🙏🏼
Thank you
What’s that noise? 😓
Yesh sorry about that, there were workers cutting down (I believe) some dead trees in the compound. Too bad they had to do it in the morning. It wasn’t that bad, though a bit annoying but I can’t have them stop a half-day’s work just for my convenience. 😅 Sorry about that, tried to manage in the edit but the mic was too sensitive 🙏🏼
