Love your content!!!! Just love how you get to see beyond the touristy areas.
Same here.
13:00 it's crazy how we foreigners can just walk into a filipino's house without permission and they are super kind, welcoming and smiling. If we did this in the west, all sort of things will happen. God bless filipinos
They are the best! But he did welcome us to come in to have a look
Very interesting! Seeing blast from the past places is getting rarer and rarer these days. Thanks for sharing mate
Glad you enjoyed! Was definitely something cool to see!
Thank you for your wonderful tour and your friend seems very nice too

That "inn" is what nightmares are made of.
Lol yeah!

I almost never comment on youtube videos but I just wanted to say I am really enjoying your content Marco. There are some countries I am more interested in seeing than other but honestly even when you're in a place i am not particularly interested in I still seem to enjoy the video. Keep it up bro!
Thanks man I appreciate that. Where are you interested in? I’ll add it to my list
Hey bro, thanks for showing us the places in the Philippines others wont show. Keep up the good work.
Cheers buddy! 🙏🏽
Every episode in the Philippines you are with a different girl😊
#5 time 14:50 the little shop with all the variety of snacks hanging on the wire front. I always wonder if they
ever sell that stuff, how long it hangs there in the heat or are they just samples of what they have ?
Thanks!

Some towns are like that man, others everyone is so excited to meet you 🙏🏽😂
Cheers bro’
I got some Cuba vibes from some of the places you showed in this video.
It always makes me feel sad when animals are treated badly 😞
Really enjoyed this.. would of loved to of seen the goings in in the bars at night ❤
❤
thanks for showing us the raw side of philippines bro 👊
Too easy bro!!
😮 when Marco catches a guy choking his chicken on the beach. 😂
G'day, Marco. Mate, this video is hilarious. When I travel, I just love running into another aussie. Keep up the entertaining vlogs, mate. I'm gonna make it to General Santos one day and I'll be thinking back to this vid. All the best. Frank
Thanks buddy! 🙏🏽
I love those No Smoking signs and the main worker is smoking next to it and not giving AF. Had me laughing hard. And you know he will fine you if you are caught smoking. LOL. BTW, that Inn was really grim. Another good video. Keep them coming!
Haha yeah it’s a crack up!!
Cheers 🍻
And we back❤❤❤ lets fucking go!!!!!!!!
Yeah boi!!We are back ❤️
Hi,I just found your videos today. I forgot the girls name,in episode of you both in the water. I thought you two would make the cutest couple. You have such a wonderful heart. I just get worried someone will take advantage of you. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. ❤
Hello thanks so much!! Appreciate that.
People take advantage of me all the time while travelling but it’s all a learning curve for me haha. But 97% of people have been great 🙌🏽😁
me as a Filipino saw that hotel is so filthy
Hey Marco, are you in Manila next week?
Man,you meet some beatutiful women on the travels Marco.
Once he said the 2 hour rate, you know it's not that type of hotel. It's a love motel😅
Thought the same! Gensan is a nice place. He just happen to chose the slum and old areas. Smh
Definitely not a slum, and I choose the old areas because I love the charm and antique look… not sure why you are shaking your head and interpreting that so wrong
no smoking lol the guy loves his smokes , i stayed in a place just like it in san Jose Mindoro 1985 looks like the style.
How is San Jose ?
"Sacrificing the chicken" 😂😂😂 I swear I laugh everytime I watch your philippine vlogs hahaha.." North korea" 😂😂
😂😂😂
Will be watching your new vids. Was wondering when you'd return to PI
Awesome! Return to where?
@@marcoroams PI = Philippine Islands
Where is that lol?
@@marcoroams go look in the lost and found
im been der bfore brother im from polomolok 30 mnts drives.. its a bar in gensan its where girls dancing at night...im here already in australia working😊
#8 final comment, no matter how bad you think you might sing, it can not be any worse then the folks around our
home filling the air waves as LOUD as they can with their racket. The reason they have it so loud will always be unknown.
A nice end to my evening and now I am off to bed.
Haha I am a terrible singer, but yes the karaoke is always waaaaay too loud!
@marcoroams Marco, seems like you may have a stalker in the future 😂
Fresh YESTERDAY.......🤣😂🤣😂
1:57 "No Smoking" 😂
That price on the house seems way expensive! Maybe cause he know a foreigner is asking. But dang. 100K is crazy for that place my friend.
the sign says "lot for sale" maybe the structure there is for demolition.
🤘😎
You get around man 😊, nice video the locals are living peaceful life and nice people ❤. If you tried to talk to people like that here in uk would mostly 50/50 to get nice response lol. Alot are rude would just say go away hahaha
Yeah it’s crazy hey! Filipinos are usually friendly than most of the places I’ve been
Mate, that hotel I’m speechless 😂
Haha I did consider staying there .. but chickened out
@@marcoroamswhat do u expect of an inn offering 90 pesos room😂 you didn’t experience a blast off from the past, but intentionally choosing slum and non-maintained areas. You describe stuffs base on appearance and not on facts. Do you even research before showcasing this areas. You lowkey abusing filipino hospitality🙄
@@aarizandaizaactv8912 I actually loved all the stuff I saw and people I met so say what you like. Definitely wasn’t a slum. Just not maintained building and classics kept the way they were. I love seeing that kind of stuff
Those buildings are certainly not up to fire code in Australia.
Probably not up to world wide fire code except the Philippines. 🤦♂️😂
But hey, it’s a choice and one can choose to live with it. 🤷🏼♂️
that inn looked like it was a squatters home haha
That street was used to be so called "redlight district/area " back in the days.😂
Welcome back! I’m glad you felt uncomfortable to film that poor dog in the cage. Some pinoys still don’t realize how important an animals welfare is important as well as humans. It’s sad but it happens everywhere. Thank you for not highlighting that.
Yeah when I was there, there was a lady with 3 cats in small cages. That cat looked so dirty and miserable, i felt horrible for that poor thing.
5.5 million pesos for the whole street maybe, crazy how some people have to live, like that poor dog in the cage
Totally agree!
She may not be as friendly but she is the best looking gal so far in the Philippines you have had on camera
She’s friendly, she just introverted and can be quiet sometimes.
Mike & Idna sent me to watch your channel mate and tell me your a daptoid. Can you confirm 😂
Haha! Yeah they were great, Mike from Unanderra in Philippines right?
Yeah I have a place in Dapto 🙏🏽
#6 5.5 million peso's, $110,000 - maybe not in their life time. For some one from the U.S. I can't imagine living
in an area like that. Folks living is a space so small, hot, only a small fan, you have to be raised in that condition to
be able to exist there. Our dogs live a better life in Cebu.
Yeah it’s quite expensive I think!
Haha my pina wife is from
General santos I forward the video to here
✌🏻👍🏻
No smoking, that doesn't go back to the 70's. Then he is smoking, that definitely defines the 70"s. LOL!!
😂😂😂
How Francis doing?
Yay!! You finally got a video in general santos..and also my son inlaw didn't believe me. i saw you at cebu..
Yep!
Haha should have taken a photo and sent it to him
@@marcoroams yeah should have
# 4 having a dog in that small cage is terrible. In the U.S. I would be calling the animal protection office. My wife's
brother had a nice lot but kept his dog in a back cage - much bigger than that but in there all day. When he gets home
from work, the dog gets let out and it runs like crazy all around the small yard so glad to get a chance to be out. These
folks, my brother in law too, do not deserve to own dogs.
I agree, the dog shouldn’t be locked up. I didn’t like that at all
you're all assuming it wasn't for his dinner of course :-( @@marcoroams
Is philipines much cheaper than thailand or bali?
Thailand is probably cheaper.
I'm laughing my friend said why would you pay to recreate your stay in prison😂
Hourly rate hotels I neither confirm or deny that I know anything about those types of establishments😅😅
Haha it was at that moment I realised what it was!
Those sands are dark because it came from volcanic activity, boracay sand is mostly from shells, powdered through time. That's what I believe
Some of it is indeed very rough, but I would think that you could live there very cheap if you should choose to retire to the Philippines?
Nice tour guide btw. 😉👌
Always the possibility!
Thank you 😎🙏🏽
Are you back in Philippines after Sri Lanka?
Yep!
Bro you gotta put a ring on that Filipino friend of yours. She’s gorgeous!
6 months living in Aus and 6 months living in Phillipines, what a life!
Love your videos bro, representing Aus like a champ! I’ll be hitting up Davao in October with my filo friend. Keep the videos coming! Love it
Thank you brother! It’s a great country with the best people you’ll ever meet 🙌🏽
Impossible to not have a good time here 😎
@@marcoroamsis that last filipina married!? Shes hot
are you live in the Philippines Mindanao in Pangantucan
# 7 how much did you guide charge you to walk around and show you the town ? If you don't mind my asking. Kind of
cute and I don't see her doing this just to be on TH-cam. ?
Haha nah not charging me anything. I’ve known her for some time ✌🏼
That hotel is falling apart. Don't stay there!
Those buildings were built not long after WWII.
Ma man that hotel is fir lodging shortime like motel haha i hope u enjoy the gensan brother
😂 yeah I did bro!
16:50 Goddamn bro that aint 5.5Million lmao😂
😂😂😂
None of these things are from the 60's, everything is just more rundown in the Phillipines.
He is right, though. The Aliwalas Barbershop was my go to in high school, late 80's. The industry was vibrant during the time. But with the establishment of the big malls in other parts of the city, the business in that particular area is dying. He never shows you the modern part of the city. You always see the poor and dirty stuff. By the way, Gensan had 52 banks in the early 90’s. It’s not a poor city. There’s a lot of cash going around there as a number 1 Tuna provider of the Phils.
It’s just a saying bro, not exact era …most of it is very dated some 60s , some 70s or 80s
I love it regardless
Hi bro
Yo bro!
Will you visit Francis again?
If I go to Manila
@@marcoroams do you? :) did you get any more donations for them?
husband speaking - Monday Ja. 29. Mr. Marco, what gives - you have a NO SMOKING sign hanging in front and the
guy showing you the room has a weed in his hand ?
There is going to be 70's roaches and rats in there living happily 😂
Mate did you leave sri lanka ?
I did mate
Marco I would end up starving to death if I went to the Philippines. Cringed when you tried that chicken. It was from the day before. I know you like to try the food, but your stomach might not be used to the Philopena lack of hygiene. Not being rude, but YUK.
Them hotels rooms were worse that prisons 😂 awesome to see how they live over there. Filipinos are always so friendly and welcoming. Great video once again Marco 👍🏻 Stay safe
Thank you! Yeah they are great, always happy to help out with the videos and show me what they have 🙏🏽
#3 No question why you would want to duplicate a hotel room key ?
Just for the video to show the process!
Not you Marco, the key maker should have asked.@@marcoroams
This is where the Hills Have Eyes was filmed!👻☠💀
😂😂😂
Sorry, what?😂 16:21 Is he jokes? Maybe he has put an extra 0 on the balance... You should tell him I'm not the lottery pot
😂😂😂
Beautiful people of Phillipines
Marco, I think your singing voice sounded good. Come on sing a bit more..
Fluffing it up with the Hotties again !!! 🛎🎉
Went to GenSan and showed all the sketchy places. 😂😂😂😂
They speak Visayan/Cebuano in General Santos, not Tagalog
$100k for that house though? 😂😂😂 He's pulling your leg for sure.
$97,000 dollars for that! Lol not worth it 😂
The poor dog 😢
I know!
@@marcoroams How could anyone keep a dog like that. Shocked me.
she is very cute and good looking girl!and smart to...she speak english very welll!is she single!😉
14:30 probably why the dog is in the cage 🤷
