I have started a Gofund me to help aid some of the families on the island of Siargao during the blackout who don’t have access to clean water and goods that are becoming too expensive to afford anymore. Due to businesses having to raise prices to keep up with the costs of running generators to run their businesses. The outage is expected to last through the new year 😭💔The people of Siargao were so good to me and I’d like to do what I can to give back- donating even a $1 can buy a bottle of water to help a family gofund.me/253476d6
The lushness there reminds me of your property in Alaska actually. Your host in her kindness, reminds me of you. I can see you building a beautiful little home like this on that property and welcoming guests in with the same kindness. You are a wise woman, Louie. You will create and build your own life and home based on all of the experiences which you so treasure. Thank you for bringing us on this journey of discovery. ❤️
You are definitely changing my impression of the Philippines. I love the quieter, small towns and single track roads. You comment that every day you meet lovely friendly trustworthy people, but I imagine that they experience you in the exact same way. And isn't it ironic that now matter where you go, you end up off grid!
She might be wearing some rose colored glasses and it might be she's in small towns where there's less stress. In the big cities, there's a lot of creepy people that'd stalk single women or they'd be trying to rip off tourist and pick your pockets any chance they get. Be on the look out, there's people of all kinds out there.
As your follower, it really warms my heart that you’ve found a patch of heaven in Siargao and be in touch with part of your heritage! Thinking of you always, Loui!
Here's an adventure for you if you have the time: while in the area, hop to Camiguin Isld. Go down the coast by bus from Surigao to Balingoan and take the ferry to Camiguin, hike the active volcano. Much less tourists while still accessible. Then you can continue via Cagayan de Oro to exit Mindanao. Definitely try scuba diving in the Philippines, the reefs are prime spots, much better than learning in a pool.
Thanks for sharing. It's amazing how accommodating and nice the people are. It's also comforting to know that you have no worries about your safety and security. This is definitely an adventure of a lifetime.
I am thrilled that you are visiting the Phillipines . I’ve always wanted to go there. So I’m just so thrilled to see someone traveling there and reporting about it. Thank you very much. ❤
So glad you are enjoying life in the Philippines. I am a PR from Canada. Charging the phone is pretty easy. Most malls have backup gens so power can be easy to get.. I usually go to my local Starbucks in the mall.
Melanin is definitely POPPIN and you are glowing!! This journey seems to be very self healing for you, in so many ways. Enjoy and savor this adventure that you are on. 🙏🏽❤
Reminds me of Okinawa so much...we use to go into the jungle to harvest wild veggies for dinner, swim with sea turtles and more. I'm so glad you're connecting with part of your culture...there will always be something to learn. ❤
Wow! Hey Louie👋🏾 What a trip and experience you're having in the Philippines! Thanks for taking us along virtually. You look very natural there. Safe travels!
Been subbed for about a year, wow you’re very brave! Glad things are going well! I’ve heard the people are friendly. Sounds like you are having a blast 😊
When you travel like a Tourist, you end up always getting ripped-off by the greedy crooks. If you travel like you were a local, you always get treated the best. You meet so many wonderful people. You end with the best memories that other travelers never experience. I’m 73 years old and spent 26 years in the US Navy. I’ve been around the world a couple of times. I try to eat and live like the local people and help them with various issues whenever I can by leaving medium quantities of money, so that they find it after I’ve left. It helps them deal with their life struggles and saves them embarrassment. Keep on enjoying your adventures!! “Ol’ Scooter” in East Texas.
Port Barton was my favorite place on Palawan. Less touristy than other places and absolutely beautiful. I think you would like it! So happy for you connecting with your roots. ❤❤
Aloha Loui. Oh baby, you are glowing! Look at you. You seem to be so happy and at peace. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you this way. You’ve stepped into a new world and it’s loving you. And your skin tone is perfect! You look good in the tropics. Maybe you have finally found your calling. I think you deserve this time to reflect on what’s important to you in your life. You seem to be absorbing everything you take in. I Love it, love it baby. Keep on enjoying your journey, and be safe out there. Take care, Aloha.😄😎🌴
Lou it is so nice to see you enjoying yourself. Your Airbnb looked so nice and comfortable. Thank you for taking us along with you. Food at the end looks good enough to eat. 😊
Didn't realize you were half Asian! Everything you feel that you're saying (and things you might not be but I know) is what I felt when I went to Korea for the first time in 2016. I'm half Korean and never went until well into my adulthood and my god. I never felt so relieved, happy and not tense. I feel like if I lived there that might eventually go away so I think visiting is great to get rid of some everyday stresses.
I’m loving this adventure Loui, thank you! I’ve never been to the Philippines unfortunately, even though I nearly got there 35 years ago in the Australian navy… we were just hours away from Manila when there was an attempted coup. We went back to Hong Kong instead for a couple of weeks.
lol I found it funny when I was there how easily they asked your age marital status and even weight sometimes like it. It’s totally cool to ask those questions there it seems like. Ahh such a fun place. Glad you are having a good time
Overseas vacations are all well and fine. I think I'll wait till you come back home and I'll follow along on the kinds of videos that I like. Enjoy yourself
it seems a few bad countries keep cutting the wires at sea all ova the place.. i think it would be good to bring starlink and a small jackery w solar in ur luggage next time .. safe travels n God bless
thanks! I took a moto class this summer up in anchorage without knowing this is what I’d end up doing 🤣 but plenty of people come here and just learn on the spot

Filipinos are such warm and welcoming people ❤
And eager to know your age.....hmm.....
I work with a few of them so warm and kind.

Had me at "activating melanin" and "scrumptious food". May you continue to enjoy safe travels.

❤❤❤❤💕💕💕🥰🥰🥰Thanks for taking us away from the tourists. 💖
The lady that owes the B&B is Awesome 🤩 If I would visit there, I would stay there❣️😊
You 100% should! She’s the coolest!!
Can’t wait for your upcoming vlogs especially in Palawan. They have the most beautiful beaches in the world. What a wonderful trip you’re having 😊

Personal security is directly related to personal choices. You're winning! ❤
I am thrilled that you are visiting the Phillipines . I’ve always wanted to go there. So I’m just so thrilled to see someone traveling there and reporting about it. Thank you very much. ❤
Angelique is such a vibe! The fish looked bomb. So cool to see you soaking in all the genuine goodness and beauty of the islands.
I have always wanted to explore the Philippines. I grew up hearing stories about it from my step dad and his family.
Also Loui I love your hair you should wear it out more it's beautiful 😊
I love that your exploring and experiencing 1 half of your heritage. My favorite was the cooking and bonding experience with Angelique. Great video
So glad you are enjoying life in the Philippines. I am a PR from Canada. Charging the phone is pretty easy. Most malls have backup gens so power can be easy to get.. I usually go to my local Starbucks in the mall.

Aloha Loui. Oh baby, you are glowing! Look at you. You seem to be so happy and at peace. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you this way. You’ve stepped into a new world and it’s loving you.

Awesome video Louie. I really enjoyed your footage of the Philippines ❤
I love watching your adventure from the cold dark in Canada. I don't know much about the Philippines so it's really cool to learn from your travels!
I really enjoyed this video. This is one of your best.
I'm really enjoying your adventures in the Philippines.
I am glad, I watch your video. I realize, I will need to pack a solar charging bank for my phone just in case. I will visit the PI in July.
yes I was regretting not bringing one. You’ll be set for power outages with one!
Color looks good on you. Vitamin D is great stuff. Loving these videos from the Philippines.

it seems a few bad countries keep cutting the wires at sea all ova the place.. i think it would be good to bring starlink and a small jackery w solar in ur luggage next time .. safe travels n God bless
👍👏
How do you charge your phone if the entire island is out of power?
Guessing that petrol stations and some other commercial places have back up generators
😁❤️
💘
Question, since your dad's family is from the Philippines would you be able to qualify for dual citizenship?
Yes! I’m pretty sure I can get citizenship by descent. I would just need a family members birth certificate that originates from PH
Como estake ❤
❤❤❤
Love your videos fromlouisiana
beautiful video..........? did u learn to ride ur motor bike in the philippines.
thanks! I took a moto class this summer up in anchorage without knowing this is what I’d end up doing 🤣 but plenty of people come here and just learn on the spot
Love these blogs, but be careful heard of a guy on TH-cam being kidnapped and killed in the Philippines please be safe 👍🇨🇦
Yes, this was in the most dangerous area of the Philippines. There’s really only one place to not go and that’s where he lived.
Did you have to get special vaccines
Can you not charge your phone when driving the scooter, since many scooters today has USB outlets, just a suggestion.
What do you know about Stevie Nicks Louie??🤪
By the way Loui. spell check on this phone keeps misspelling your name! I know there is no "e" on the end.
You should try speaking some more Tagalog! The locals would appreciate it too. Enjoy!
What kind of work do you do besides TH-cam?
I own a social media management company based in southeast Alaska!
C'mon now. Loui is such a beautiful goddess.
Dont get it why you dont have bf your freaking cute and positive vibes. ❤
Maybe she's not looking for one?
Melanin? Girl, please 😂
men of culture I know you are here. 🎖🪖 🫡
Fantastic adventure!
