Our names are Jmayel, Sacha & Story. We traveled to Siargao island with Jmayel's mum & Story's grandma just before the Global pandemic that sent the whole planet into quarantine. We got stranded for over 3 months and fell in love with island life, now we want to make that life more permanent.

Can you dhout out to me??? HehehevOFW singapore from philippines.. I keep qatching you everyday💝💝💝💖❤
I may not be quite active at making comments but I watch you every single day. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Me too
You both are such good and thoughtful parents, not spoiling her with material things, but teaching her what is really important, that's quality rather than quantity.
Story is a joy to watch how she's blossoming everyday.
Learning how to process coconut milk in the Filipino tradition is awesome! Another beautiful day in tropical paradise island!!🙌🏝🧜♀️🤸♀️🏊♂️🐕🌴🥥🥛🌏🏝🛺🌊
Bravo, Story! I'm really proud of you. Not all foreigner little girl is as flexible and as smart as you. You easily adopt things in your environment. Definitely, you will have a historic journal to remember as you grow mature. You are a good product of a very good example and an ideal parent. God bless you, lovely family. Stay safe and healthy!
Don't discard the water you can drink it too is the cleanest and healthy water
Yea...i really admire this family...esp you Story an amazing kid..very appreciative!...i salute you guys!
Definitely a very smart girl.
THE WHOLE PHILIPPINES LOVE YOU BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE SPECIALLY STORY.
Hello guy's. I'm impressed at J's first attempt in tackling matured coconut. Just be careful handling the "bolo" (machete) by the way. Don't throw the coconut water, you can also drink that. Best way to extract the first coconut milk is add about 2cups of water to 1whole grated coconut then knead it like a dough to get most of the milk for about a minute or so before squeezing hard using both hands. Set aside the pulp. Then use a sieve or cheese cloth to get the remaining bits. Repeat for 2nd time but add only a cup of water. For the pulp, put it in a tray & let it dry under the sun, blend it then you have a coconut flour.
Enjoy & Take care always. X
Can the pulp be used to make pan de coco?
@@itsrye8001 yes..if you would like to..but less taste of coconut..
No... squeeze out the pure coconut milk without water first. That's what you call cacang gata. After squeezing that out, that's when you add water and squeeze it out some more.
I think the coconut water is too sour at that stage of the coconut, the green ones are the best for buko juice.
@@ambiepotolin6853 depends on who's drinking
Hello Jay. Add luke warm water to the grated coconut to extract more milk.
Coconut milk you can make it into an oil. Just boil it with slow fire until the oil comes out.. and it is already an organic coconut oil. An it can use for cooking.. for the hair to make it shiny.. in the body skin like body lotion.. nice job guy's 😍❤
what you did, Jay, is very Filipino way of life, specially in the provinces. Good job!
When i was a child, that is one of my task and i feel i was suffering. Now i appreciate it cause it is already an skill. I miss those moments where i used to scrape that coconut.
I love Story's make up songs. She'll grow up to be a composer singer one day... 😍😍😍
When you cut the coconut the water still can drink.
I appreciate this family's eagerness to learn and embrace local life. Way to go guys!
That is, indeed, a step in becoming a Filipino.
Btw, that small coconut flesh is called sprouted coconut, just not sure how they call it locally.
In grating coconut... you must start outside going inward in circular pattern... the secret is to grate it evenly, it should not be finishing one area; then another... you can use a clean cloth to extract more coconut milk.
Yay Storys turning 4! Such a sweet voice singing! Take care fam and be safe!❤🙏
Yes, J, you’re becoming Filipinos now. Processing coconut milk from scratch, the old-fashioned way from opening with machete to grating with a sit-on “kudkuran”
There’s nothing better than freshly made coconut milk🥛🥥.
Is there anything Story can’t do? She can carry a tune alright.👏👍
Another sweet video. Thanks, folks!
👌🙏🏼❤️
Great job on giving Story a "context" or "image" of your subscribers in a video form. She's gonna feel the Filipino family feeling
I'm happy to see you Jay doing the Filipino way of preparing coconut milk from opening that dry husk to cutting the shell then scraping in the traditional way, that's what we do almost daily when I grew up in my province and we cook almost every day using coconut milk to cook vegetables and fish. Great to see you thriving to learn the local way of living. It's very interesting to see you embracing and appreciating our tradition. As always Story is always funny and entertain us all the time. Stay safe guys and enjoy your the Filipino way 😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏🙏
Ireally admire this family there trying to learn every thing aboutthe tradetion of the filipino.
Video greetings from other kids is an excellent idea......especially she has no siblings, home-schooled and only a few neighbouring kids to play with. As J said, this provides context of where she is on the scheme of things.
I agree... Smart parenting...
My grandma used to cook "sticky rice" and she made use of fresh coconut milk, pretty much what you did here. She also made coconut oil but i can't remember how she did it. We used that home made coconut to massage a painful body part, or apply it to a baby's head to make the hair grow. She also cooked some of the grated coconut flesh mixed with molasses, much like what they put inside a "pandecoco bread". Those were some of my memories with my grandmother.
Thanks for the vlog
I think you just keep on boiling the coconut milk till it is reduced to oil.
Just boil the coconut milk in a pan until it become a coconut oil. But you need a lot of coconut milk,5 or more, to make a bottle of coconut oil.
@@idonnahravalo8812 that's good to know.
@@idonnahravalo8812 you can use the coconut milk for your hair to it healthy, full & shiny & somestimes for HIV( hair is vanishing)
Victoria de Manila That is what my grandma did to make coconut oil. The oil separates after boiling for a while, floats to the top and leaves a residue that looked like custard which we used to cook fish. Delicious
Loved Story singing All is Found from Frozen II! 😍 Had to sing along with her.
From Portugal, lots of love for you guys!!! I love watch your videos. Big kisses and keep safe
That was awesome! Story a good singer so lovely little girl shouting daddy you got this! Yehey! Wahahaha
Story's singing was the highlight! We love you so much, Story! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Good job with the coconut, J! It does require confidence and conviction to get to the flesh but I am pretty sure you will get the hang of it! 😊
Nawww seeing Juno show you the coconut milk method is exactly how we do it in Samoa! We use the coconut milk to pour over cooked green bananas, pour in cooked rice as a coconut rice, pineapple drink which we call vai fala (pronounced vey far-lar) or put in banana leaves mixed with onions & then cooked called luau (pronounced as loo-owl). However it’s definitely done the way the Filipino way brought down from generation to generation. Also, Story sang that frozen song beautifully.
Samoan and Filipinos share the same ancestors too..
Hello world, J, Sacha and cute little Story 🥰. Story is so cute cheering daddy in cutting the coconut! Haha. Enjoy your weekend guys! 😘 Happy to see you again.
She's the best. So glad we get to spend everyday with her :-)
@@8milesfromhome I truly agree. The most precious moments are with our children. Love you guys! 🥰
She's a very a happy girl.. Im always smiling little clever cute while your laughing and singing.
hi J, Sach and Story. What you hear goggling when the coconut is shaked and gushes when you break it open is the coconut water. The coconut milk is what you extract from the grated/shaved coconut meat. The round, sweet, watery thing inside the coconut is it's germination, because brown coconuts are the right age for it to start to grow. We call it in the visayan dialect as "buwa" . We were so thrilled to find them when we were young, they're tasty ^_^
i love the buwa even until now ! hahaha
I loved buwa til now
Buwa lover here too! 😍
All the while I thought it was “botbot”, “buwa” diay na sya sa bisaya?😂
I was wondering when you guys would try getting your own Coconut milk, good show. You might want to try cooking it with some veggies too. Garlic, onions, pumpkin, string beans, malunggay leaves in Coconut milk, delicious.
Yes!! I would love to see them cook ginataang gulay 🙂
That coconut grater brings back a lot of memories back then when we were in the province.... New subscriber by the way😀
I love how you’re embracing the Filipino culture and on your way to becoming Filipino🇵🇭 Absolutely love your family ❤️
The soft white growths found inside some coconuts called Coconut Embryo, Coconut sprout or Coconut apple.
"Botbot" as we call it in Southern Leyte.
We simply called it bula/buwa
Hi! Exactly we call it bula or buwa..
We call that ampol in Bicol
Meus amigos! Que bom ver a vossa felicidade... E a Story está TÂO linda... Beijinhos grandes
J and Sacha, when is Story's birthday? I know it's November, I just don't know what day. You're such great examples of parents. So in sync with your values, beliefs and teachings to Story. Most of all, very humble! I can't wait to see Story's reaction. Love her so much and the rest of the Philippines.
Your little princess is the star.She just simply enjoying everything.Great family
Hello beautiful family 💟. You can cook a sweet meryenda called "ginatan" out of that fresh coconut milk. My way of cooking it is not the conventional way like my Nanay used to do...but try it with your chia seeds.
Boil at least 2 cups of coconut milk and a cup of water then add sugar to your liking for sweetness. When boiling, add cubed cuts of sweet potatoes, banana (saba), fresh kernel corn and about 2-3 tbsp of chia seeds. Let it boil until sweet potatoes and bananas are cooked. (Optional: you can mix half a cup of fresh coconut milk when you turn off the stove to have a fresh taste of it). Hope you like it 😉
Hi guys specially to Story ❤ watching from Cyprus
You’re so cute Story when you say; go daddy go, so sweet of you
What a lovely smile and laugh, Story. You've got an angelic voice ... kind a music to ears. You're a good singer, aren't you?
When you are cooking, save the first squeeze. Do a 2nd squeeze and that is what you use for initial boiling. The 1st squeeze will be poured before you take it from the fire so it is still creamy.
We live in California but That’s the way my mom used to make coconut milk when I was a kid, my dad made her the same kind of coconut scraper. It’s a lot of work but it was worth waiting the desserts for 🤗 I’ve also seen on other videos that they actually sell fresh shredded coconut, they shred it for you at the market on purchase.
Jay, the coconut grater is called “KAGURAN” ...from the word “kagud” (to grate). GOOD you never failed to try using our futuristic kaguran.😅🤣😂
@komentarista in some visayan locations they're interchangeable, like in Cebu.
The favorite part of the kids waiting to cut open the coconut os the embrayo called boha..kids are patienly waiting for father to give that thing its so sweet
I enjoy watching you, doing Filipino way. GOD BLESS YOU.
You can drink that coconut water too. The desiccated coconut can use to make other things like sweets or macaroons etc. They use that for pandecoco bread filling too.
You can make coconut macaroons out of those squeezed coconuts flakes😊🤗
Hi Im a vegan too and just a tips to have a nice coconut milk, save the coconut water after you open it up and just sift it to clean it up then, massage the grated coconut with that coconut water so you dont need to put a bland tap water in it. Massage a little longer so the coconut milk will really going to come out to its food vacuole in its cells. Then sift it up and enjoy.
Wow i think Story has a good voice and she could be a singer and a composer too!!! Keep on singing story!!! Stay as a good child mg dear!!! LUV U!!!
Hello 8 Miles From Home.🤗
Watching this vid reminded me of how my Mom applied coconut milk on my hair when I was still a kid and would leave it there for hours. It really made my hair shiny, thick and black.😊
Its also a cure for HIV( Hair Is Vanishing)

@@noemideclines7112 hahahaha true😄
Oh Story., you're so lovable., i'm always entertained with anything you do ., no dull moment :-)
day by day you learn the culture of a filipino.great story guys.from manila here
Wow story good job doing that filipino way of getting the coconut milk....and your dad as well and also your friend helping you...
Yes your birthday so soon ..
Your are such a smart girl..
That's how we make coconut milk, esp in most provinces, squeezing by hands.
Better if you put a lukewarm water before squeezing.
Hello World! Hello Story!
i really love your channel because you dont just show the tourist destinations in the phils but the daily life in the island. the simplicity of living that give us simple happiness
You an also freeze the coconut cream.
Filipinos usually express the cream twice. The first round will be your full cream using very minimal water. On the second round, you water it down a little bit more and this will be your 2nd diluted batch. When used in cooking with vegetables, you use the 2nd batch first and when your close to getting your veggies done, then you add in the creamier batch to get a thick and flavorful outcome.
Great parents Story has. That's a lovely birthday present to our cutest Story. Memories! Involving Eight Milers!
Hello guys just enjoy watching you...God bless!
Impressive story girl.... You adopted the island life so well.. It will be the best experience you'll have while growing up.... Stay cute and lovely....God bless..

I love your videos!! I've been watching it since thailand!! Please go back! At least for a vacation! ILY🥰🥰
We were in Thailand for a month in January just before we came here! Did you watch those videos ?
Sure did! 😁
Hi story 😁😀
Story's getting little bit chubby. Looks so pretty.
My favorite family..😍😘
I’ve been watching your vlogs for 2 days, like maybe 4 of them since your Surigao days until you left and move to another philippine bayside. However, i found myself interested and enjoyed your family oriented content and the happiness your family exudes while enjoying your stay in the Philippines. i felt proud that my fellow filipinos love, respect and welcome you as their own family! i can feel their kindness and care for you! It is at this point that i finally decided to see more of your vlogs.I know that you came to my country at the most difficult time , more so in the middle of pandemic. I ‘m proud to say that i became one of your new subscriber! Mabuhay!
you should use the back of the knife in breaking the coconut
4th today
Been watching you guys since the struggle of being locked down from the pandemic. It's great to see how you guys cope with the anxiety from the first few videos when lock down was impkemented. Keep on posting videos and Filipino people would definitely help uou guys
Little girl is really pretty and smart.. Wishing good health and lots of good memories for upcoming vlog..
Coconut milk mixed with squash, string beans, eggplant is yummy..
How are you my dear Story?
😍
Story is like the little Shirley Temple, so cute smart and talented that I always watch her old films even now.
HAha..You're becoming Filipino guys. Kulas na ang dating ninyo diha.. God bless everyone.
When you boil that coconut juice, you will end up with coconut oil..
That REALLY is traditional; you're using a machete
you should've store the coconut water/juice in a pitcher - what a waste!
that's amazing! you've let Story scrape/grate the coconut with the 'horse' - many parents would be worried with the children's age - children ARE amazing if we just let them show us how.
another way to squeeze coconut shreds without a cheesecloth is an old t-shirt/face towel/handkerchief/scarf
as long as you store the coconut milk in the refrigerator, the milk will not ferment that fast
hahaha J really did not give up ,,,good job and Story you are so smart and pretty .
Nice watching traditional way with Story...thumbs up.
