Thank you so much for watching!
Maayong adlaw sa tanan..Translated from the Bisaya language- Good day everyone!
Every day we are falling in love with our new place. The scenery, the people, life here in general.
Boria and I went in search of a beach. According to the maps, the sea is not far from us. On the way we spotted a mosque. One of the things we like about Davao is the diversity.
You know you are near a river when you see many nipa palms.
The nipa palm does not have an upright stem, or trunk. I
We walked through a thicket of nipa and found ourselves in a cemetery. Tropical plants intertwined and covered the tombstones. We got the impression that we had found an ancient Aztec or Mayan city.
There is a river running nearby.
We came to the edge of the village. The children said that we were near the sea, but that the way there was very muddy. They offered to show us another road.
In the morning, we transplanted our guayabano seedlings into plastic bags with soil. In the future, these trees will delight us with delicious and nutritious fruits. We also see this as a gift for our future children and grandchildren. Even when we are gone, these trees will remain strong.
Right here near the fish stalls, women are getting their nails done. Another saleswoman is doing zumba. Filipinos look so carefree and happy.
I generously sprinkled salt on each piece of fish and spread it out under the sun. This kind of food preservation is called "daing" and is very common in the Philippines.
Nearby we saw a huge pile of mature coconuts. Nearby there is a small shed, and under it is a pile of coconut shells. We asked the man who collects the coconuts and he said that the coconut flesh is used for copra and the shell for charcoal.
After filling our pots with soil, we headed home. The weather is beautiful today, but it has been pouring rain every evening for the past few days.
We were lucky, it rained right after we got home. The weather in the Philippines is so unpredictable.
We are happy to have our plants watered, but the animals seem annoyed, especially the roosters. They have no choice but to endure the heavy downpour. Just as we have no choice but to listen to their crows from time to time.
I love that this part of the philippines doesn't have a prolonged rainy season. At night, the rain cools the ground and trees and in the morning, nature is bathed in the hot sun again.
On the way home, we spotted a cat. It was playing with a snake. Boria got curious and decided to check it out. It looked like it was weakened and possibly dying.
I had been bitten by a snake before, so I am very afraid of them.
Meanwhile, husband is looking at a local reptile with admiration. It looks cute, but afterward we find out it's a southern Philippine cobra. Also known as the Samar spitting cobra.
It is a very venomous species native to the islands of Visayas and Mindanao. They can be found throughout the southern part of the Philippine Islands.
Samar cobras can reach a length of one and a half meters. Their coloration ranges from black to yellow or green.
They feed on rats, frogs and other small reptiles. They can be found in rice fields, pineapple plantations, and coconut groves. Because of this, these cobras often come into conflict with humans.
They are known for their nervous behavior and are quick to strike.
Sometimes, spitting cobras shoot venom, specifically targeting the eyes of the enemy like a sniper. Their toxin corrodes even the skin, let alone the eyes. It leads to irreversible blindness.
We continue to explore Mako's neighborhood. Boria saw men playing some instruments. As usual, he got curious.
After watching for a while, he memorized the rhythm and tried to play along with them.
Boria noticed a spider. It's quite big. He doesn’t know if it is dangerous or not. He carefully brought a stick to it and the spider immediately grabbed it with its chelicerae. And then it came at him. He thought maybe he was imagining it, maybe it was just running away from the stick. He decided to continue his research.
When we were still in Russia, friends gave me a crochet kit. I say I am making a bear. It looks funny now, and it looks like a platypus, but three days later I finished crocheting and it was indeed a bear.
In the afternoon we saw an unusual insect. It is often mistaken for a huge mosquito. This delicate winged creature is a crane fly. There are over 400 species of them in the Philippines! Unlike mosquitoes, crane flies do not bite people and animals! They feed on nectar and decomposing organic matter.
Happiness can be found in the most unusual places. Many people ask why we chose to live in such a rural area. The fact is, we didn't choose this place, this place chose us.
This channel deserves more views and subscribers than those crappy channels around. No toxic and vulgar languages. Pure creativity and interesting encounters. Kudos to both of you!!
I agree with you
Agree

Encourage your friends that what I did
I dont miss their uploads.
It's great thanks that your foreigner husband enjoyed so much to our fellow Filipinos hospitality and kindness. Enjoy and have more fun in the Phil.
Дарлинг! Умничка. Вяжет. Спокойная; хозяйственная девушка! Счастья им
большое спасибо🥰
In the 60s as a young boy, I loved to watch nature films. Darlene, your style of narration is similiar to these programs. Such brillant descriptions and sharing of experiences with a slow, study delivery. Oh by the way Darlene, these shows were early National Geographic films. You are a natural!
i like your mother in law. she seems a kind person, kinda shy and always smiling and she's not fussy. she even helped you get some soil. i reckon she has adapted the life in the PI. take good care of her. she will appreciate that im pretty sure☺
Do it an online business because it is very cute. Make different colors and assorted animals 😍🥰❤️👍
What a beautiful vlog to watch.it’s not showcasing the branded item most people possessed. No showing off it’s where I can see the natural beauty of our community especially the environment where they keep it intact .
Thank you very much for your support ❤️
No flashy effects but well executed.. the real beauty of this channel is its simplicity.. Feels like Im touring around the country..
Thank you🥰
A silent viewer here. It is like a travelogue and narrative combined. In depth. You deserve more views and subscribers. Welcome to this country. You need to buy your own lot for these plants before they grow big.
Such a wholesome channel with soothing narration and just the right music for the content. No fuss, authentic creators take their viewers on their journey. Darlene is a wonderful storyteller, Boris tells the story behind the lens, and mom makes for a great supporting cast that brightens the story with her smile and calming demeanor.
Thank you so much ❤️
Wholesome indeed! What a great and simple life
I agree, so much appreciated.. the narrative, the simple shots of all what are common sights in the province, very good arrangement and presentation of what is life like the PH province, for foreign viewers too.
lovely photography...
nice crocheting work of art.
What an amazing video Darlene, Boris & Mama Katya‼️ I love watching all your videos. Please don’t skip Ads in one way to support their channel. Thanks 😊
Thank you so much ❤️🤗
The best and easiest way to stop TERMITES is by painting the wood 🪵 with waste engine oil (waste oil ) believe me, it never fails…I’m telling you this from experience and being a country boy myself, it works ❤😊Stay safe and healthy y’all
The walk in the mud and murky water is something I don't desire..... but I have to say...What an adventure indeed❤
This is why I love their videos, the way they put so much effort into delivering quality content, it takes time with lots of editing, finding the right music and script/clips etc. so many vloggers in the Philippines upload mostly raw videos with little to no effort and has no real direction or goal with just a bunch of random clips for the sake of "uploading frequently" leading to bad quality and often times becomes repetitive and annoying to watch. Darlene and Boris if you are reading this please continue doing what you do best and never cave in to the demands that you must upload 3 to 4 videos a week. power on and God bless!
Thank you so much for your understanding and support.
We know they mean no harm by requesting several videos in a week. But we need to be consistent with the quality of our videos.
@@islandlifebd You are very welcome!
I completely understand where they are coming from, its just that some of us like the way you guys deliver your content with love and effort and I for one don't want that to change just because some people want more videos. its lovely to know that consistency is your priority and that is a respectable decision. say Hi to your mama Katya for me and have a wonderful day!
I love watching your blog because of how you describe the nature and your surroundings. It enhances the beauty of a simple village because of your descriptions. I wish you both a good life in the area you choose to live.
Florida fan

I really admired you Darlene, the way you vlogs and intruduces the things in your experiences in your area. The way of leaving and the ecosystem and its way of life in the province.

My sister, brother, and mommy. I don't know what is mom's name. It doesn't matter, but we are all family . We are all children of God. Anyway, I am so happy to see that you are now living in one of the Bisayan island. Soon you're all going to learn how to speak our dialect, bisaya. Darlene, I pray that you and your family will have a beautiful life there.
I love listening to your narrations of your life's stories. You are such a wonderful story teller.
Wow! You are now in Maco.. that place is not too from the resort of my sister known as Beach View Resort in Pindasan Mabini next to Maco. You can visit there and l can assure you that the resort is very nice and clean. I'm your subscriber from Bremen Germany and watching your video every time you got uploaded it.

Mag ingat sa mga lamok, ahas at iba pang insects. Malayo layo kayo sa pagamutan .
I want to add ... Boris talent came out when he played the musical AGONG instrument he's so amazing just adapting so easily in Mindanao....
As usual I love your episode but please don’t ever bring your husband on that kind of adventure….and playing with that snake, I was closing my eyes while you do the narration….I was scared 😊I agree with the wearing of boots too. …please make 1 video a week , we are here to support you guys ❤🎉🙏
Yes develop your skill and sell it online….that’s a beautiful product and I’m sure it will sell🙏
i like it when you show us the animals and the nature
Extra careful darlene,boris and mom on your new home. Enjoy with ur neighbor and new friends.God bless always.
I think you were supposed to crochet the snout of the bear as well so it will look more like a bear :) Your bear is crocheted really neatly and is very cute!
How happy to watch a new Video. While waiting for the new video I watched your previous video the first time you met and all the rest.I watched over and over again until a new video.I seldom comment but I never miss watching your videos day and night.It’s my therapy being old already. Thank you so much. May God bless and protect the three of you.

my absolute favorite watch ! can't get enough, love the narration and the whole spirit of the channel. always such a treat. all the best to you guys
Very interesting vlog… it brought me nostalgia,provincial life in the past when we were kids wd my sibs!!❤we have local farms too!❤
I can tell Boris was having second thoughts if it was worth it to see the beach when the path got a bit too Indiana Jones for him. 😂 Also, the nervous system of that spider was definitely 1000x faster than Boris' reflex. I didn't even recognizes the pitch of his voice when the spider 🕷️ charged! Hahaha 😆. Your crochet work is so professional Darlene! Loved how the bear turned out. Hope you save it for when you decide to have a family. I enjoyed this vlog very much! ❤ Hello to Mama Katya! 😊
I told him to go back after the kids warned us that the path was so muddy, but he wanted to go on an adventure. So adventure it is😅.
He's so curious, it scares me sometimes.
finally what a beautiful video.thanks darlene for uploading how wonderful our world is😘
Amazing❤️
Thank you so much
You guys think ahead i.e the plants
And I let all the commercial run😁
I’m looking forward to the moment that you get your own piece of property… all the wonderful things you would do to it
Arizona USA
Another great upload. I laugh so hard when you were talking about the rooster being having no choice just like you have no choice but to listen to their crows...in my mind I said... checkmate/stalemate! 😅
Kabsat, ibenta nyo yung mga tanim nyo sa city para magkapera kayo tapos matutulongan nyo pa ang environment dahil magkakahalaman ang mga tao sa city...ako si kalipay yon subscriber nyo, this is my husband's account nakikigamit lang ako.
I am always looking forward to you vlogs! You are very talented and industrious! Boris is so lucky for having you as his wife. I wish I have green thumbs like you! ❤️
Not skipping ads just for a little help for your family darlene.stay safe!
Darlene, be careful where you are going. You must remember your husband is a white foreigner. You need to be cautious all the time because he might be kidnapped for ransom. They will recognize him as "amerikano" and a rich foreigner. We really don"t know if all areas we have in the Philippiness are safe. Tnk u. God bless you all always.
What a beautiful Episode. Thank you Darlene, Boris and Mama Katya, God Blessed us All.
Thank you so much 😊❤️
Brilliant idea map included. A very important information. Your vlog is always about the real Philippine natural environment, no infrastructure interventions, how people adapt to it, including your family. Unique vlog. I like this area. Looking forward to be in such a place.
It's 12am matutulog na sna ako bigla ko nakita yung video ng Island Life,panood muna before matulog para happy sleeping..😘😘 keep safe Boris and Darlene and mama Kat❤️❤️❤️
Midnight snack po bago matulog😄. Enjoy watching 🥰
Long ads but worth the wait Darlene, Boris and Mama!❤❤❤

@@islandlifebd when are guys planning having little ones. You should sooner.. Have a business planning/ Entrepreneur
Make sure there are no parasites in the water, mud you are walking to like Schistosomiasis, etc…
theres no parasite in a mangrove swamp
Careful in your exploration particularly grassy areas. Venomous snakes scattered everywhere, so wear rubber boots when going this areas. God bless DARLENE, BPRIS & MOMMY KATYA
Thank you so much. God bless ☺️❤️
My most awaited ❤❤❤❤ lovely people and nature ❤❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️
Im your number 1 fan always here to support you …🥰🥰

Thank you so much ❤️
Simple pleasures are great, you have a good heart and Boris adores you, no wonder your viewers compound daily as they continue to be delighted with your channel. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Pls take care. Avoid the swamps. It's mosquito season. Don't walk in the muddy waters.
Oh my, fresh fruits and vegetables are so healthy and delicious.
Ingat sa mga ahas kabayan
Hi Darlene palagi kayo mag iingat Dyan sa Davao masyadong delikadong lugar na yan . May kasama kapa foreingner Baka pag tripan yong asawa mo dyan and yong mother in law mo malayo sya sa clinc syempre matanda na sya . Anything happens ingat na lang ok good blessed
Hello po. Thank you po sa concern 😊. Malapit po kami sa clinic mga 2 minutes walk po at malapit din po kami sa centro 5 minutes lang sa tricycle 😊
Safe ang Davao. Wag ka lang makarating ng East Coast. Tagum, Toril, Digos ay okey. General Santos ay maganda rin kaso marami ka na rin kakumpitensya sa negosyo at super init pa. Mas delikado pa rin Jolo at unahan ng Cotabato. Kahit Pikit, North Cotabato ay delikado. Hanggang Kidapawan ka lang dapat. Occasional lang naman danger at hindi katulad noon na halos araw-araw delikado. Basta sa mga liblib na probinsya sa Mindanao. Pero Davao is safe. Nature lang ang hindi dahil sa mga sakit at cobra.
enjoying watching ur vlog it reminds me when im young in our province nagkokopra all peoples are busy with there own work godbless us all 🙏😇♥️
Thank you so much ❤️🥰
Always looking for your next vlog. I enjoyed watching your vlog, it's very interesting and educational. Vlog more, please. Take care.
Great content l enjoy watching your videos immensely thanks so much. 😊 I am a happy fan.
I admire both of you. I can see you both having your own property and have a garden enter selling all the trees you are growing.
Good luck to both oof you.
Where have you taken your Husband? You must also be careful that your Husband might contract a disease such as Schistosomiasis, Malaria, or Dengue. You're making him walk on mangroves that might have sharp spikes or spines. Adventure is good but do not go to dangerous areas. You must look after the safety of your Husband since you knew better. He maybe determined and courageous but he is also vulnerable to sickness, danger, and accidents too.
You should always wear slippers in mud or shoes for muds.. its dangerous to wounds ur feet!!! No short cut… asked the longest way to beach & take rides!!!the safest!😢😊
Смотреть вас интересно
Голоса у вас приятны
Вы супер
Удачи вам
This just a vlog this documentary very informative. Good job! This is the best vlog i watched si far.

Your husband is humble and Simple, Russians can be Amazing. Gwapa kaayo ka..♥🌹..
Add in your list, Poo Sand Bar, Baganga, Davao Oriental. East coast of Davao. You might find there a long-term place to stay. Have fun exploring.
That's my belove place Darlene..
Madaming ahas diyan

Nice video again!!!
wonderful video,so intresting you show the birds and nature there.the spider looked angry waaa
Thank you so much 😊
Very nice vlog with beautiful, interesting content. I enjoy the longer episode. Great story telling.
Started my first view to this vlog with Vladimir and Sweet’s wedding just two days ago. I got interested the way she she narrated the events and became curious how it is with their other vlogs. And i was hooked now to watch their vlogs. I haven’t watch yet how they met though and what Darlene do for a living before she met Borya. Very interesting couple. I like it that Darlene is very precise in narrating every details from the places they went to as well how everything is done; their humble lifestyle and all. I also love how Borya and her mother in-law embraced our culture. This channel deserves more subscribers.

Stay blessed you three! Just be careful at all times when walking barefoot!
Thank you so much 😊❤️
You are so brave venturing the swamps. I grew up surrounded with mountains I could never venture it. Take care especially Mama.
Refreshingly nostalgic to watch your very simple life in the province. Long time ago, this was how I lived my life when I was young. Wishing you all good health and good fortune.
Thank you so much 😊❤️
