the PHILIPPINES is the vlogger's paradise
That's True ❤
I love the Philippines for the fact the people are so happy and friendly and I can’t wait to go back. Great video btw, you two are born for this
Be back with your family and friends. Expecting that soon maybe.
@@user-tv1oz9bn5y I have a friend that lives in Cebu and like to go Island hopping from there. I will be back in a few months hopefully and I will be on my own
Thank you for loving the Philippines 🇵🇭
@@ianpatrickjovenambrosio7861 It’s so easy to do
@@user-tv1oz9bn5y I have a friend that lives in Cebu and other friends who I met out there when I’ve visited different places
Being a pilipino living in California, I feel very proud for all the positive things you say about my people.
Feel good.
We are poor nation country but we are full of happiness, kindness, respect, hospitality and friendly. Life here in Philippines is very simple.
The Filipino people are the best! So welcoming 🤗
If you come to CEBU CITY, take a 2GO big boat it's like cruise ship you will enjoy your journey they have Karaoke music bar, restaurant, side seeing other island with 24 hours sailing. 👍
be grateful that there still foreigners visiting our country yet you're here sharing your negative perspective. Be happy for Philippines at least for once. We are a developing nation if you don't accept that, it's on you.
Big check..Simple things to me is enough....If you wish to visit Philippines,we will treat you as family not a visitors...Filipinos are different..Filipinos also are approachable
Anf you’re proud of that? You sound poor and pathetic
Whenever you see Filipino foods lined up at carinderias ( food stall) it’s called turo turo literally translates to “ point point”.
Welcome to my humble home country. Mabuhay!
Thanks for the welcome :)
educated Filipinos never point though.
@@eduardochavacano Why is that? How do they tell the seller which one they want?
@md929 As simple as pointing with your finger the food you want to the seller, even without knowing what food it is.
@willm3633 I was talking to eduardo. He said educated Filipinos don't point. Every Filipinos point even using their lips. 😆
Super nice way to learn the local culture and feel the environment. Best way to find out how ordinary Filipinos live in Metro Manila.....Great ...
Couldn't agree more, such a fun way to start out our series!
Yours is a refreshing take on tourists vlogging in a new area. Amazing!
Glad you think so! Thanks for the great compliment 👊
Tommy you are a natural to connect with people !! You both are shining. No surprise everyone wants to be in your video!
Really appreciate the sweet compliment ☺️ Thanks so much for making my day!
You do not need to be a natural with people, Filipinos are natural hospitable and friendly, I have been coming to Philippines from 2016 and moving there permanently in 2026
Just subscribed everytime I came across blogger that Promotes my Beloved country Philippines I will support the channel .From IN USA
I love how friendly you are with the kids. I'm sure you will hit 100k subscribers while in the Philippines. Stay safe guys. More food to come and try to enjoy.
The kids are the best and had a lot of fun hanging out with them! Thanks for the love 🤗
Love this!! You always capture the best portraits and interactions with locals 🥰
🥰🥰🥰
Love the taking of pictures of the people, really nice
Our favorite part of our videos 🤗 So happy you enjoy it too!
I agree
Welcome to Manila ❤ hope you guys enjoy for the rest of your trip. Filipino are very hospitable very kind and they are always welcoming the foreigners and that’s how to interact with the locals. Guys take care ❤watching from Chicago 🇺🇸🇵🇭and you will love the Filipino food just try the Kare kare, adobo, lumpia specially all the grilled foods believe me coz I’m a Chef too❤and don’t forget the chicken joy of Jollibe because that chicken is the 5 best chicken in the states ❤
9:16 "NAPAKASAKIT.... KUYA EDDIE!" I can't help but sing it! Hahahaha
Yes connection from Spanish. The only country in Asia connected with Latin countries, colonized by Spain. “Feel at home” meaning feel at ease. 😊
Thanks for the warm welcome 😊
I love how you are featuring the people too! I miss Philippines so much! Enjoy your stay!
The lady in the eatery did not properly identify the rolls which she said to be Pork Shanghai. It is a kind of LUMPIA hence it should have been properly called LUMPIA Shanghai which filling is pork meat. There are other kinds of LUMPIA like Lumpia Toge (bean sprout filling), Lumpia Gulay (leafy vegetables filling), and Lumpia Sariwa. Sariwa means Fresh. Lumpia Sariwa is not fried unlike the other Lumpias. It has filling of vegetables, carrots, sprouts, etc., and topped with peanut sauce. Fyi.
Ayun oh, very well said kabsat ❤
@@Arnel_A67yun oh.. padak nga ilocano!! Hehe
Good to know, thanks for the detailed explanation 🤗
but we also call lumpia as shanghai. she’s not wrong. some shanghais are made with fish or something else hence she said pork shanghai 💁🏻♂️
Who cares!?
That river is starting to look better. Hope they continue to clean it up for life to return
Good you mentioned the river too. It's dead. Will be decades before it returns to support life IF things like flooding, open sewage, and litter are mitigated.
@@canibescott2289 for your information it is no longer died. There are thriving fishes in the river already.
@@igzqui7817 there's always been fishes there even in it's worst years back in the 90s and early 2000s. you'd be surprised how adaptable fishes can be even in some of the most toxic and disgusting environment.
looked better from the surface, underneath it, still seeping with untreated sewage mostly from nearby residentials.
@@ninja.saywhat so in short the river is not dead.
Love your vibe guys, hope you enjoy your stay in our country❤
Appreciate the nice compliment, we are loving our time here 😊
Welcome back to the Philippines! I like your video style!
Appreciate it, thank you 🙏
One of the better vlog I have seen in the Philippines by foreign vloggers. Great content guys.
I super agree!! They look so genuine.
New Subscriber here from the Philippines. You know what? This is authentic no holds barred type of content. i like it. What you just covered is the true everyday life of the 80% of the Filipino Population. Covering BGC, Makati and other high places in Metro Manila is Kinda Boring. Keep it up! Stay safe and all the Best..
Man, I love your shots. CLEAN! Great job. Liked and Subscribed.
Much appreciated! Thank so much 👊
Be careful with those drinks…. They use water straight from the faucet. When I visit the Philippines, I realized the water from the faucet is sweet and delicious compared to the water I buy that tasted like chemical to sanitize the container. So I decided to use the water straight from the faucet. However, I strain it with a piece of material derived from the ny,in tea bag from the green tea in buy from Costco. Then, I boil it, and finally, put it in the fridge to cool. I think most restaurant use filtered water. I only drink pure coconut juice from palengke and avoid those delicious looking tropical juices from the street. Have fun and stay safe.
thank you guys… i notice every filipino that you take picture always peace sign of their fingers.. ❤
MS . SAMMY & SIR TOMMY , WELCOME HERE IN PHILIPPINES !!!!! 👏✌️👍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 FROM NOW ON , I WILL FOLLOW YOUR CHANNEL . 👏✌️👍❤️❤️❤️
New subscriber here from UK... I love all your vibes and positive comments about my people and culture. Yes! I'm filipino living here abroad. You guys eat the filipino way, using bare hands which made me more prouder. Enjoy your stay and God bless!
This is great. You captured the true feel/emotions of the people and places in the Philippines. Thank you. Makes me want to come home sooner.

Here are some places to see Baguio ( summer capital of the Phillipines ) , Tagaytay , Banaue ( rice terraces ) , Vigan ( Spanish colonial ), Bicol Region for Mayon Volcano and Sorsogon for whale sharks.

I stayed there at Aqua Novotel last year last week of March. I loved that place. Got that local vibe and right across the river is Powerplant Mall. You can take the boat to cross the river for 5 pesos and walk to the mall. Fun place.

Banaba cue is fried and caramelize in sugar
The soup is called tinola
Chicken saute in garlic onion & ginger ..whole pepper ,papaya & chilli leaves ...
98% do not what is Banana Que. Be informed Banana is Roasted Banana that is why it is called a Q like Barbeque. Fried Bananas are called Rebusado.
@eduardochavacano banana cue is caramelized with sugar and Fried in cooking oil; it is not roasted.

Hi Sammy and Tommy new subscriber here enjoying around manila and the best to connect to the locals

I like how this episode focuses on the place and the people instead of on the vloggers which is a common theme among foreign vloggers. It kinda reminds me of OG travel vlog Lonely Planet with my favorite Ian Wright, Megan McCormick and Justine Shapiro. Good job you two.

Can't wait for more!
The filming and editing is spot on
Cheers

Love your positivity, such great vibes. No qualms on local foods but to be safe, drink bottled water.
We appreciate your genuine interaction with the locals which sadly is missing from most foreign vloggers. Thank you for the kind words and we pinoys know how to reciprocate. We will support your channel and again 'Welcome' and stay safe.
