"Unit 1a" is a nice coffee shop owned by my good buddy. Stop in there for a brew and ask for Nico.
@regularguy Scotty Boy, Scott-aroni I can't find any information on your new travel brown/tam backpack.
Can you tell us what backpack you're using?
Well well well if it isn't Tim K of southern Leyte. 🍺
Hi Scott, Ana the rice farmer from Alangalang, wants to know what's the brand name of your backpack. She wants to buy one just like it.
Cheers Mate! 🤠🍻👍🏻
@@CyberChiggzTim K🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
@blackwoodrichmore4531 then let her ask, she's big girl!
I REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE LOCALS. GOOD ON YOU!
Hey man I love the locals and a compliment goes along way
he's just using them for view.
"Everyone I own in one backpack" Lol! Most unfortunate autocorrect in the history of the Phils.
It took me four reads to understand what went wrong with the autocorrect. I must say…those he own are quite tiny.
@@WilliamFluery "He be happy to owns nothing"...lol
Maybe a serial k???? 😮
Nah, more like a cereal k@@RetirePhilippines
Hahah took me 5 reads to see the correction
As sort of a WW II buff, one of the first recreational books read in high school was "The battle of Leyte Gulf". Now, we can see exactly the area for which it was fought. Beautiful area.
wrong side of the island - Tacloban is where MacArthur made the famous landing.
The slow motion / freeze frame makes me laugh each time.😅😅 Scotty, stop messing around and get back to Ana.
Are you nuts ? she's as mad as a cut snake .
TOTALLY... 18, REMEMBERED UR Y.T. CHANNEL NAME AND FLIPPED HER HAIR BEHIND HER EAR...
Scotty Boy. It looks like you are on an endless quest through the Philippines to find something. What that something is, I have no idea. I'm getting dizzy from watching you travel all around the Philippines like a chicken with your head cut off. Lol!!! I like the videos when you're sitting at a bar all day streaming or recording people going by.
Something tells me he's going from one handful to the next.
@@jimalvir5866 Yes. He's constantly on the run. Like he's trying to run away from the law. Maybe Scotty Boy is really an internationally wanted criminal. Lol!!!
I think Scott has a severe case of ADHD
His goal of being a TH-camr.
@@jimalvir5866something tells me that too lol
16:41 -- You sure do know how to pick them! LOL I doubt very seriously his parents named him, "Janella!" Reminds me of your other friend, on another one of your trips. "Romar" I think his, er, her name was!
15:43 I discovered Lanzones on Bohol a yr and a half ago @ 180p/kg and became my favorite fruit I’m guessing Leyte is getting the same Camaguin variety and I’d be all over them, especially @ 100p. Reminds me, in Davao you can get their varieties for just 50p/ kg!
16:06 Roy, I think old SB complimented Janella to help shut up his friends who were teasing him for speaking English and with a foreigner. I could be wrong but I doubt it.
Does anyone know why Scotty isn’t just renting a bike from Derrick!???! I’m sure Derrick would give him a great price, he can’t be that broke?
He did the math. Owning is cheaper than long term renting.
If I met you in person, I could explain
@@vicvac3920 yeah I can’t think of any other reason. Super weird cuz he gets a lot of money from the buy me a coffee app and videos are doing good views wise. He starves himself all day then eats brownies then cries about having mental issues like dude why don’t you eat healthy?
@@lawfulshepard2111 yeah but im trying to change my health but its hard while changing cities everyday
@@Regular_Guyph it’s not hard, you live in one of the best places for clean wild caught sea food loaded with minerals and fat soluble vitamins that regulate healthy brain function. I’d kill to have access to wild caught fish from decently clean waters, they are literally killing us here in the USA.
I have been on Leyte five years. Nice people and a good place to live.
Good video
'The drink was the highlight' ouch. Up there with Seinfeld Elaine's 'I mentioned the bisque' lol
Ha!
Well, Scotty boy, I am completely enjoying the new more soft-spoken patient man that you are becoming. Enjoying your videos. Keep up the good work.
Love how u put into slow motion the female passers by and we can see their cute faces making a scowl at ol’ Scotty boy..
Never and I mean NEVER ask direction in the PI.
I ask for directions and then do the opposite. Usually works.
Scotty Boy: I like the way you do your restaurant and hotel reviews. A few well chosen words gets the point across without being nasty. You are a diplomat.
Remember "Then Came Bronson". You just need that scooter.😂
Michael Parks
I remember it well, “where ya headed, wherever I end up I guess”.
Michael Parks of the Philippines...Then came Stevie.
As a former tour bus operator we always joked about the first 10' is the impact zone.
Travelling with just a backpack is great. Spent all of July 2022 travelling around the Philippines with my Osprey Farpoint 40. It's carry on size but also converts into a duffle back so you don't need to worry about the straps when not needed. Only hard thing was keeping my crap to under 7.5kg for carry on when taking flights. I now take a bag for checked luggage as well to deal with liquids and stuff but still love my Opsrey. Also have Opsprey day pack which can fold up and fit in your pocket as well as my Osprey Stratos which I only use for hiking here in Oz.
I like your approach to this series. Letting us know clearly where you are and if you would want to retire there. Your answer at the end was good for a chuckle. 😅
Everywhere you went looks clean.
“You’re a good girl” 😂😂😂😂
Now that was the absolute best laugh I have had in several years😂😂😂. A pure "Larry David" moment: "You're a good girl!"
Who in their right mind would say that? Scotty boy, that's who, the Larry David of the Philippines vloggers!!
Redo that as a short and it will get a million views. 😂😂
One other bit of advice, forget "the good girl" and hightail it back to "the farm girl," wake up Scotty!!!
Recently discovered your channel. Better than average 👍😊
Wow!!! Thank you Neil
Hey Scotty, bring back the infamous alter ego Scott Chocolate.
Your content is original & entertaining.
@@TRUMP1-xw8kx that was a story about a guy with that name, lol.
It was not a story about Scotty.
Sarcasm will get you everywhere Mr. Scotty Sir 😁😛 Seriously though keep up the great work
Scotty, that meal looked delicious. By the way, I’ve been watching you from the beginning & your videos have only gotten better. Keep enjoying the adventure!
Hi 👋 BROROONIE. Looks like a quiet sleepy town. Hotel girls are cute 🥰. Ladyboy had the HOTTS for you I think 🤔 Soon you will travel in style on your own. Safe travels 🙏. Hope to catch your next livestream 👍.
Blessings 🙏🌸🌺🌼
The man, the myth the legend, the Regular Guy, it’s Scotty boy! Keep up the great work my friend.
what happened regularly guy? I am anticipating your next vlog because you said you are going to Naval. I am from that town, my partner says maybe my hometown is dangerous 😂 thinking you might've been kidnapped there😂
Yep wondering the same thing. I can’t recall so long between vids.
😂 I love it how you pause the video to show us the reactions of the locals!
I really appreciate the map graphics and repeats it helps me TY
The screeching metal gate is the perfect sound for the beginning of a horror hotel scene.
The town seems smaller and quiet, people riding bikes instead of all on scooters
I’ve been there. No for me as well. Great video. The best parts are the slow mo showing Filipinas. I experienced the exact same.
Yea man agreed
Really enjoy your tremendous efforts! Congratulations. Thank you
Hi Scotty .. hope you are feeling better .. question: what is taking so long for the bike? Stay safe.
yeah, everything in one backpack scott, you got things right on. you have your two arms free at the same time. i like to have a smaller backpack to use when i've settled in somewhere. i take all my essentials in the smaller backpack for day to day travelling. things like hand wash, wet wipes, tissues, insect repellent, sunscreen, etc.
Scotty Boy, it's good to see you back in PHP!!!
What’s best practice traveling with enough cash to have a good time but. But not so much you’re at risk.
I’m not a budget traveler, but I’m not reckless either. Headed to Leyte area in a few month’s.
Thank you for showing us around the country 👍
Scotty, good to see you are on the move again. Always great to see your travels. Great job. Great vids.
Scott maybe you might consider staying in one location for a while even if just a month, instead of bouncing around day to day. You could maybe even meet a woman if you stayed someplace longer than a day or two. Not sure how you are handling all the travel ?. I traveled for 2 months riding my motorcycle though the Philippines and it was not easy and after a while it took a toll on me. I hope the constant travel does not wear you down.
I have been saying the same thing.
Maybe he needs decaf 🤣🤷♂️
Dude slow down!!
You’re going to keel over🤦♂️
I love Ormoc, I was there in December for four days. I go there every time I'm in the Philippines to see my fiancée family. They come in from the island of Poro in the Comotes Islands. We stay at Fans Hotel because it has the biggest hotel room in Ormoc, it's a big two bedroom suite and I can fit her family of four in there plus us and we have or own room with a really nice queen bed as good as a Marriot bed. Definitely hit the big outdoor market next to the port.
Poro is 10 million times better than Ormoc..but the limited schedule for the ferry...sometimes its so early from Cebu
3 bdr 2 bath townhouse can be rented for 10k a month in Palompon. The cinema in Robinson's in Ormoc is very modern and good theater. 250 pesos for a movie, popcorn cheap
do you live in palompon? how is the dating scene here, being a small town and all.
Love the videos. Keep doing these types of videos of visiting parts of the philippines that are not well known
What is the temperature like this time of year, walking around outside in Palompon? It looks beautiful, but I've heard that it is very hot.
I was in Tacloban, (not far away weatherwise) in an October. I would describe the heat as BLISTERINGLY INTENSE, at times. Like being hit with a thousand little darts of pain.
Buddy of mine used to have a gf from up in Naval. Mine is from Carigara. Loving the Leyte Province adventures, Scooty Boy!
Thank you for the great vlog! As always, super fascinating to see what the town is like!
Ima simple man. Scotty boy posts, I watch.
I have seen several of your videos where you reference no toilet seat. Is this a common theme in PH hotels? Do you know why the toilet seats are missing?
Wow 😮😮it's a pleasure you visit our beautiful Ormoc City.
Oh yes I love ormoc
the sneaky shot of people walking past is great. it keeps the male viewers interested, at least 😊
It seems like quiet and organized in Palompon and Ormoc Scotty boy.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the girl(lol) you complemented in the maroon…. Is just your type Scotty.
The channel is Regular Guy, not Regular Gay
😂😂😂😂😂😂💥
Hey Scott, good to see you are back in the saddle after that more reflective short vid I saw the other day.
Reminded me that my first penpal (pre-internet...back in the 80s) was from Palompon. I wonder what became of her .
I don't think you can live in a small town, Scott. When will you visit Palawan island?
Its nice to travel to different places in the Philippines
Man, you dig through all the little islands.
Good job Scottie...you look like you had fun time there...energetic
Whenever I'm in a small town in the Philippines I just go on my phone and Google restaurant near me and find plenty.
Palompon is great...It has one major street...I like the Krispy King
Hey man the Pensioner Hotel there..Like 8 stories has a great rooftop view..
The ppl are really nice in that town..Kalamggaman Island is right off shore about 30 mins..National Treasure..
Janella wanted to show her rooster to you…🎉
What’s the song in the beginning of the video.
What kind camera you're using bro?
Hi this was on the insta 360 x3 I believe
We were just there last yr for a month. It’s where my wife is from. Beautiful area. Her family lives about 20 mints from town. Isabel.
I love your channel started following you. I love the way I can learn about the Philippines everywhere on your Channel thank you for doing what you're doing I hope one day to run into you in the Philippines lol
Getting withdrawal symptoms waiting for new videos Scottie 😊😊 When do you reckon you'll be off on your new motorbike? Particularly looking forward to more LUZON content..
It looks like there is nothing to do there, Scotty boy. I can't wait to see you again. Thanks from LOS ANGELES CALIFORNIA
Is this a hotel? Is this the Philippines?
It's the Philippines yes sir
@@Regular_Guyph just wanted to confirm, mate 🙂
Seems like your motorbike is taking forever to arrive. It’s been months since you ordered it. Bet you can’t wait!
Its cool u interact with the pinoys they love that!!
Yea man friendly people, love friendly people it's great positive vibes
I was here thanks for the Vlog!!😁😁
Take the trip from Palompon to Kalanggaman Island 🏝 beautiful Sandbar .
yes, exactly, you shouldn't miss that island.........
That’s a really beautiful sandbar! Magical.
@@ValentinaMitchell1 Yes 🏝🏖 powder white sandbar so beautiful 👍 I have beautiful photos from Kalanggaman Island 🏝
Was there last September tough going to Kalanggaman if weather isn’t conducive for travel.
@@RyanUSNAVY it truly is a beautiful white sand powdered sandbar, I love that place so much!
Im 32 and retired. Planning on finding somewhere not in the city. I get around 4.1kUSD(222k php)/month. Any idea where i should go?
Thank you for the great vlog! As always, nice place never been there.
I lived in Ormoc a little over 15 years ago. Not much to do there for a Kano unless you wanted to drink and whore, which I never did either while I was in the phils. It was OK as a safe base for travel to other islands. It was fine for that for me. Rented a nice two story townhouse for $80/month. A caretaker husband and wife lived on the property - not in the rental - and watched 24/7. Water was fairly reliable. Electricity had brownouts a few times per week. I used to take a 45 min. bus ride many days to Leyte University campus, right on the beach, with a cafeteria. Cost $5 day for bus ride and meal at the beach. Can't beat that...
Why would a young healthy man have zero romantic involvement with woman as a way of life choice?
It is that SDA influence. 😂
@Avarua59 his titles make it sound like he is pursuing romance but we know it isn't even close. He creeps out every woman. They sense he is on the spectrum
Janella
Scooterooniee still doesn't find the girl who made him feel the same love he felt with Mary Ann before.
@@KATHERINE-so5di we can't even validate any of these girls existed. All he showed was a few grainy stills despite continuous videos in his life. Something is off here
In most filipino vlogs i noticed there is no toilet seats in alot of the hotels are people stealing them or just ripping them off ?
Do these hotels give discounts for long stays?
Only if they are listed on Airbnb
Hey Guy, what are you using for cellular service?
I'm sure this question been answered before, but how are you affording this really long trip through the Philippines?!? What an adventure!
He said many times his TH-cam earnings are his income and pays just enough now to cover his costs...
I would love to be able to do all this and come to the Philippines. I've had a Filipino nurse tell me you really should go You really should go every day I get up and I instantly get on my TV Look at your TH-cam for regular guy. Seems like you're getting pretty famous over there
What's the hold up with the scooter? Is it faster to buy a used one or does it still take a long time to do all the registration and licensing stuff? Seems to me that Leyte would be ideal for exploring on a scooter.
They tell me you are good to go with the registration That comes with the used bike.
Your image quality seems to have improved. Did you change the settings or get a new camera?
Yes I got the insta 360 go 3 it's new
Nice! I have that camera. It's easy to use and more importantly fun to use. The image quality is good enough, as long as it's not super dark outside. It looks a lot better than the X3 in my opinion. I had the X3 camera before too. Lol😊
17:36 That l👀k 🤣🤣🤣
Why did you sit in front of bus?
I am very forgiving but please do not say the Lord's name in vain as it deeply hurts me to hear it.I love all your videos and have watched hours and hours of your content. You are great and talented.
If it offends you. Don't watch the channel.
This video highlights the challenges Westerners face if they choose to live or even travel in PH. Food is the biggest problem. Next is entertainment. Did you see any pubs, bars? (That can be a good thing or a bad thing) Things can get boring.
The small towns are boring. What would you do all day?
Scotty, I give you credit, your acceptance of hotel rooms, and their many degrees
of cleanliness is something I would have issues with and I'm also in philly.
Hey Guy,,what are you using for cellular service?
One thing that is very noticeable is people live their lives in this country and actually see the world around them. In the U.S. you'd just have videos of people walking/driving around head down with their heads glued to their phones.
Do you really need to rent a bike or can you tour the country using buses.
You can definitely use buses. I used to travel by bus. I just got a bike for this TH-cam channel.
I did sub to Anna's channel, but her camera is very shaky and causes me motion sickness. Would be nice if you could give her advice on how to video blog.
the burger and taco and fries look awesome!
They have a great Lechon stand in the market...I met the owner shes so cool
Scottty, You are welcome for me being the person first to suggest that you use a backpack.
Kalanggaman there is pretty.🥰
How much was the Travelers Inn?
1000 php night or I think $18
I was considering a trip to Palompon on my next visit to Leyte. Watching your video I think I might forego on it. Maybe I'll try Merida or Isabel.
Life is full of adventure
What happened to David Bond?
11:36 Hahaha! The reason probably coz it's a LOVE HOTEL. Take a hint at the Heart logos on the wall
decent cost for a basic room I would use, long term things like medical services is a massive factor
You planning heart surgery?
Scotty, please take off for 3 weeks til your bike gets here. It is clear you're burnt out.
I must have missed it...why Naval?
Just check it out
The fact that you are not constantly hugging the porcelain throne tells me that your stomach has acclimated to eating the very local cuisine!
The street food in the Phills can be scary
Do you ever get tired of sleeping in broken down hotels always on the move especially at your age. It can't be good for your health. I traveled south America for 18 months changing hotels and cities every few days and I won't lie it wasn't easy at times.
