I like the new walk and talk format and seeing different areas! Thanks Gio.
Yes for sure...
Enjoyed the ‘walk and talk’ Only bad thing is it's hard to think, talk, while avoiding dogs foaming in the mouth, wild chickens and dodge traffic.
Totally agree, I kept losing my thoughts lol
Ya, you have to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time.😂
The dogs don't bother you if you don't bother them.
I hope those dogs dont have rabies?
Great video Gio. Next time turn the camera around so we can see more of the neighborhoods without you being in the video. We know what you look like. And mix it up a little with some motor vlogs.
Ok will do
Agreed
Keep doing the walk and talks. 💪
I like this format. I like when you turn the camera to see the businesses & homes, etc. Most people do not do that on their walks.
Thank you :-)
Nothing wrong with the change of how you do your videos, it’s cool the more you expand you’ll enjoy it and get better and show your love for the country and culture Gio
Thank you!
Really interesting I like to watch the background.
You show the real country
Enjoyed the walk and talk. Good points to remember before traveling to the Philippines. Thanks, Gio...Jim
That was cool watching you walk!Nice mixing it up!I always enjoy your content!
Thanks 👍
Us stationary folks love the walk and talks. Show us what we're missing.
Like the new format !
I enjoyed the new walking format. However, safety first! Please don’t take any unnecessary risks considering the traffic chaos.
Yes, keep up the walk and talk. Also a great idea you have is to do your daily routines as you talk and walk.
I have to disagree
too many distractions and outside noise
Love the new format. Yes show the road. Thanks
Enjoyed the new format! Philly in the Philippines does this to
Great new format.
Hey Gio love the walk n talk! Also enjoy seeing n learning more about North Point ( I never knew this was there!!!). Many thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey Gio, one thing I haven't done yet is my mail. What online mail forwarding service company do you use? How long have you used them and are you happy with their service?
Thank you
I've been using Traveling Mailbox for over 2 years and love them. travelingmailbox.com/?ref=1384
I like the format Gio
I prefer the usual format without the street noise.
I enjoyed seeing the area with the walk and talk. Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
I like the new format.
What 🎤 are you using. The sound is pretty good 👍
DJI Mic
I like the walk n talks gio !!
Good luck with the new format. Good move Gio. If I can be of any help let me know. I am settled in now and really enjoying the Philippines.
Looking back on my own time in SE Asia (~3 years now), I also feel that I wouldn't change too much. After racking my brain for a few minutes about it, I couldn't even think of 1 major thing I would change. I guess I should be grateful that things have gone pretty well overall! Truly one of the best decisions I ever made.
I love the walk and talk. I visited the Philippines (Luzon) for my first time last year. Seeing the sights brings even more value to your videos. Hope you do more. Thanks Gio!!!
More walk and talks please!!
I like the new format, video trip sight seeing and a good topic....
Thank you Gio
Ps. Is Sibulan near this area
I like this new format ❤
Yes, it is!
Hi there Gio👋
Walk and talk, getting fit at the same time 👍
Up to you what ever you fee like doing, take care on the road or anywhere. Thnx for the vlogg😊
I like the walks and talks.
Enjoyed the walk and talk. Planning to move to Davao from U.K next month. What do you recommend or use as a expat for Health Insurance in Philippines?
Start with travel medical insurance and then switch to the health insurance in the Philippines once you know you will stay here. visitorscoverage.tp.st/f6dHJDqB
Gio,now you will get in better shape while you volg 😊also the street beat is way cooler and now we learned about the North side yes do this again Gio thanks.
Gio, are you using Go Pro, no gimbal?
DJI pocket 2
Great vid, Gio! Please take care and don't get run over. Lol.
You make a good point about buying a motorbike sooner, to learn your way around. When we were in Vigan City last year, the GPS on my phone was mostly worthless. I had to back the pickup truck we were driving down way too many streets. A motorbike would have been so much easier…
A motorbike gave me much more opportunities to get off the beaten path.
I always walk in the opposite direction of traffic - so that I can see it coming. All it takes is one distracted driver and that could be the end of your essential travel tips. Nobody wants that :/
Good point, I will do that next time.
Thanks for sharing, Gio.
In Indonesia there is also little to no sidewalks in most places. Also drivers there use their horn to warn others as a friendly gesture.
I think you are looking back at your previous life because you have entered a new stage in your life. It gives you some anxiety which is normal. To cope with it you ponder thoughts about the times prior marriage. That time is gone. It was good but you are doing better now with your new wife and daughter. Your system has to adjust more gradually to the new lifestyle.
Maya is a wonderful woman and her daughter is lovely. Take good care of them and you be fine. Let go of the past and the perrson that was attached to that and welcome your new life. Everything is fine.
And your microphone is working properly. It doesn't catch up too much noise from the environment. It is not unpleasant to hear some background noise as it is part of the real life in the PH, lively energy. Your voice stands out above the noise so no problem for me.
Walk and talk more interesting than just talk.😍
I like the new format. Something more I'd like to see is a map of where you are walking. There's a vlogger I follow "Unseen Thailand in Chiang Mai" that displays a little map with a walking animation on it. I don't know how easy that would be to create but I like it!
Great suggestion! I think I will implement that.
Great way to do videos. Plus I still can't get over their powerlines.. lol like spaghetti 🍝
Davao has their power lines buried which is nice.
I like the walk & talk! 😅
Cool video
Right on, Gio . We really enjoy when the bloggers do more than just be the armchair quarterback. Thank you for all your information as it is what we need to acclimate to the philippines and all of its pitfalls.
I like the walk and talk…please do more….
Gio, thanks for the walk about. Looks like the north side where you walked looks agreeable to me. I won't look for a rental on that main street, but any of the side streets would be fine with me when I arrive. As for future videos, more walking videos help me get a view of the town, but do whatever makes you happy.
I will do more side streets.
Yes to walk and talk 👏🏼
It's nice to see things that we don't normally get to see. I know for you it's probably hard to focus on conversation and not get hit by a car and talk. Please be careful.
The walk and talk provides different scenery around Duma, and that’s kind of fun.
But I know first hand that it is an obstacle course as a pedestrian. Hard to concentrate on a message when you have to pay constant attention on the surroundings.
My thoughts is do both styles. Walk and talk when you want to explore different views, and the sit downs for loftier discussions.
Either way, I enjoy your channel.
Walk and talks are good 😊
That was a great walk and talk saw different side of Duma that nobody shows.
Like the walk and talk but perhaps you could find a road with fewer vehicles?
Yea, I will for sure.
I like the new format. Sound is good. Please share your experience about the different neighborhoods in the area. If you happen to see a house for rent, please mention it. I am here now and looking.
Will do!
Thanks Gio. Its definitely different to sitting by the pool. Yes, do a few more of these. But as others have said, Please be careful from the traffic.
Thank you
I like both. You don’t need to limit yourself to one or the other.
Definitely do only walk & talk video's and show us around. As well as the finest condo's or houses to rent.
I've never seen a video from the Sibulan market and the seaport there. Like the walking format, but it's the dry season and you can't do it later in the year, so that should keep everyone satisfied. Good video 👍
I totally agree! I'll do the Sibulan market.
I like both formats. Doing any one thing all the time can be monotonous. Do both and mix is up depending on your mood. You could do a number of different formats. I have seen walk and talk, talk while doing some daily activities, sitting in a park and talking, etc. mix it up. The challenge is noise when out and about but that is why you may not want to do a single format all the time
Which did you like better Cebu Business district or Mactown Newton?
Mactan Newtown
I listen to your videos, seldom watch. Nevertheless, I appreciate your efforts to show interesting backgrounds.
You need one of those bright yellow safety vests . Not only would it keep you cooler but it may keep you from getting mowed down .
Yes show more areas that others don’t please
Glad to see you out and about, good exercise. It shows a good picture of the everyday life of the people there than just sitting in a coffee shop or your apt complex.
You're right about that, sidewalks are a luxury in the Philippines 😂
No problem with the "studio" style format to convey information like this. But enjoy the walkabout, I'd do both, nothing cerebral when walking, more showing, interacting and walking more comfortably, safely!
Nice video, nice change of pace. Thank you Gio. Very wholesome
Food for thought as a viewer, most of us would rather see the streets view than your face only, then when making a point turn camera on yourself jmo I'm 58 so seeing view is more appealing
Noted!
I’ve stayed at the Henry. Highly recommend it, for a comfortable room and good food!! Now that was 2 years ago!
Nice walk and talk.
Like the view of the ocean
Maybe turn the camera around facing forward and commenting as you go along on what we are seeing, of speaking on your chosen topic for the day. Am interested in the North Point and Sibulan areas.
Noted.
Long time viewer and Duma visitor; This is nice to get a feel for the area you’re in. Would help orient the viewer to show a map view of where you are walking - like we do when using google maps. Otherwise each walk is just a mystery of streets and building locations to those unfamiliar.
Thanks for the effort. Also how hot in temp numbers is it now? I hear its been super dry and hot. 80s? 90s? 100F? ( 30-40C? ) Rainy season is approaching right? John
Good suggestions
Yes a walk and talk.is good
Walks are good but maybe not these busy roads as too noisy. At the beach or natural environments would be good
Yo Gio... if your job was in Cebu... why did you live in Davao initially ? thank you Fr USA
Seems less congested then the other end of Town.
How's the weather? Still pretty sweaty?
May is the tail end of the dry season, all I know.
Yea, it's still pretty hot but hopefully tapering down soon.
Walk & talks are great but are best when the camera shows your POV or the view ahead of you. We can still listen to your voiceover narration while seeing the scenery.
Noted!
Yes walk and talk.
I liked your walk around as it gives the viewer what parts of where you are living looks like The streets the homes the location but it can be a bit distracting for you as you are trying to get a story across and you are distracted as you need to watch whats going on around you.And i know what you mean about Filipino drivers
I will try to pick a different area that is quieter so I don't get so distracted.
Yes, be careful Gio in crossing the street.😊
Bio I enjoy your channel. I see that you are concerned about the traffic. Why not walk in the direction of the oncoming traffic in order to eliminate looking over your shoulder while you talk.
What about video why not club, bogarts, rolling pin, Chinese shrine, dumagute Valencia dauin cock pit, the boat building area of the boulevard. Like the new format keep walking😊
7:24. I have a California Drivers License so how valid is that for a Motorbike?
I don't have a Motorcycle endorsement on the license
You can drive on it but if you move here you can get the endorsement added on.
@@GiointhePhilippines OK. Thanks. I used to have an endorsment in another state but was never transferred to California. Had a Honda 175 CC back in the 70's.
Absolutely
Also first
I would have changed nothing because the best experience is mistakes that you can learn from.
you avoided that stretch of hood between Blvd and North Point
What about video on a bite clinic?
I would like to see the best beaches near Duma.
Mix it up a bit ! But walk and talk is good !
New format is a Great Idea. Thanks for all the info you put into your videos.
My pleasure!
Lol….If only we could do things over. If so I never would have married my ex-wife 😁. Marrying her wasn’t a total loss though. I learned how to swear up a storm in Cantonese 😂. Your mistakes are also some of your life experiences. While it’s better to learn from someone else’s mistakes, eventually you’ll have to learn from your own as well. My previous mistakes made me a lot more cautious, especially when it came to dating. I stopped ignoring “red flags”. Most of the people who knew my ex and know my now girlfriend of 15+ plus years say that my girlfriend is the exact opposite of my ex. From a moving to the Philippines perspective, yes make a good plan BEFORE you go. Do a lot of research. Do your due diligence when you’re looking for your future life partner.
I would just mix it up and do both. stationary and walk about.
How much money do you walk around with?
few thousand pesos, no more usually!
Actually this area looks better and more quiet than what i've seen online in most of the other video's of the Philippines...just saying.
I know you haven't been out in a while but honestly I can tell your a little rusty in your camera work. All the Best.
I’ve been to that pancake house as its a favorite for my girlfriends kids.
I think information videos and tour videos should be kept separate. Both are good, but when you try to combine the two like you did in this video, it doesn’t work well because the road noise makes the listening experience poor and you get distracted from what you are talking about as you try to navigate traffic or mention something about your surroundings.
Just my two cents.
Just a suggestion. I’d probably feel more comfortable doing a sit and talk if I had a lot of detail to get into in a topic simply because of noise and distractions. Also it causes getting off topic a big issue which really isn’t an issue if you’re talking to somebody with u in person but not really a good screen thing. I do recommend doing walk and talks but that’s best when your not talking about a subject that doesn’t apply to the walk your on. Anyway I got a big mouth so don’t pay me no mind but if u welcome advice from a idiot well that’s my 2 pesos worth
Darth Vader on bike at 6:32?
Like this style.......even mix with a very very very slow bike ride with helmet camera, either with voice over or real time narration so we see other sides duma or the local.....but new locations tired of the same places tht all the vloggers are doing......
Glad you like it! I will do some motor vlogs too.
