Learning FILIPINO RESILIENCE After Super Typhoon Odette

- Learning all about Filipino resilience is something that we are experiencing first hand after super typhoon Odette Rai made landfall in Siargao, destroying all utilities and comforts we once knew. Collecting water from the well by hand is an ancient way of the Philippines and many other old cultures and now it has become a necessity.

I’m a Filipino-American and so much admire the happy go lucky and resiliency of the Filipino culture. So happy that it appears you guys are doing well despite it all. There’s some Filipino in you Brits! Take care and we will continue to watch your journey!

Story is still happy helping her parents despite hardships after typhoon Siargao. I thought they will leave Siargao and transfer to other nice places in the Philippines.
But together with the locals in the community, they choose to stay in Siargao and worked it out to meet both ends.
God bless you JJ , Dha , Story and all the people of Siargao.
Don't worry it will pass just like anything else. We experienced that too so many times in Albay, Bicol, typhoon Reming on November 30, 2006 was the worst, aside from heavy rains and super strong winds, we also had flashfloods of mud and boulders to deal with from Mayon volcano, where 2thousand plus lost their lives, some bodies not found maybe buried in mud, 267 of my relatives died that day, our place is located 1kilometer away from the slope of the volcano. Anyway we left the place and spend December in Manila, after New Year we went back fully loaded with positive energy and started rebuilding again with what was left.
I’m so impressed with this family. They could easily have left the island with the others but they chose to stay. That’s how you know their love for Siargao is real and not just for social media. I’m so proud of them.
I heard from the other comments..they've relocated..this is understandable since their child Story need clean, potable water.⛲ The island isn't the way its used to be.🏖 As vloggers they totally need internet & electricity..and it's nonexistent at this point in time in Siargao..⛵
Oh wow. I hadn’t heard that. I guess I spoke too soon. They did what’s best for them, I guess. I totally understand.
They already left the island of Siargao via a free evacuation flight provided by the Philippine government.
These are old videos taken during the first week after the typhoon left Siargao.
They also mentioned about leaving the island during their last vlog.
Their friends on the island already left during the first flights out provided by the government, so they have no choice but to also leave the island.
Pretty understandable because electricity and other utilities will take almost a year to be rehabilitated.
Majority of patients in Siargao hospital were confined due to water borne diseases.
There living in Davao now , these videos are misleading
@@Sunmoon-gj9gy Nope. Not misleading. How do you expect them to upload their videos after the island lost electricity???
They mentioned from their first video after the typhoon that the vlogs are delayed due to lack of electricity in the island.
Even before the typhoon, foreign vloggers avoid posting videos in real time for security reasons. All of their vlogs are at least one week delayed if I am not mistaken. Sometimes their vlogs are three days delayed.
Your daughter is so beautiful. Such a ray of sunshine. It's hard to lose hope and positivity with her around
Filipino resilience is a way of life of surviving in extreme conditions. Once fallen, Filipinos bounce and stand tall again. It is an inherent trait within each Filipinos!
Those trees are resilent too. In a month of two or three theyre going back to densely green. And best challenge in life you got there. Your daughter is amazing she got some joy on her side.
Your daughter should have her own channel. She is such a ball of sunshine.
Agree👍
And she knows how to sing and dance, too.
Agree
Yes! Story’s a beautiful soul. Just like her parents.
I just left a comment on the video you posted before this one. We are British but live in the Philippines and were in Cebu when Odete hit there.. I just heard you say you lived in Portugal before the Philippines!!! That’s crazy.. us too!! We lived in Portugal for ten years and then moved to the Philippines and actually live in Davao city!! We actually originally moved to the Philippines when my hubby and I first got married, 16 years ago but only stayed 6 months that time! Then we moved back here to the Philippines 4 years ago, are now back in Davao and are now staying here in the Philippines very long term. It’s great to have found you guys Chanel!
They might also be moving to Davao for a while to recover from the emotional and mental trauma from the typhoon.
Keep safe always guy's because like this. Situation in Philippines makes people more dangerous like walking in the street,many snatchers holduppers criminal thier looking for a victim because of no food to eat ,drugs addiction, specially foreigners likes you became more in percentage to became a victim.and us a pilipino dont show you are rich no idea about where you are going you show that you are tough and not easily give money, keep safe always every body
Gotta give you props for staying there during the bad times..that is really admirable..and you seem to have adopted the filipino resiliency as well..
@martin martin I caught you again you supposed to be in Dustin Backpack 🎒 Corner 😂🤣😅✌️✌️🙌👋
Your daughter is joy to watch and just see her shine through difficult times she will be unstoppable in her life to see her parents coping well! You picking up and setting a high standard that you are not waffling that you are there to support your community that need you. Not everyone has the ability video their lives and your helping us see through your eyes! I hope someday for the evil doers of this horrific event are eventually found and justiice prevails.
Your lovely and happy family!!I like your kid,it makes you lively for your daily vlog,happy to see you everyday with your adorable and smart kid!!I like her very much!!!God bless you more,more and more subscribers! God be with your family always!!!
@@Sunmoon-gj9gy I bet u can handle crisis better
evil doers?? it's a thyphon..what justice will we be seeking against a force of nature??is there someone out there in the pacific ocean creating a thyphoon with a machine??🤣🤣🤣🤣
What evil doers and seeking justice your talking about Tiffany Wagerman???🤔🤔🤔🤔It's NATURAL DISASTER...a strong TYPHOON that hit many islands in the Philippines😔😢😭
@Tiffany Wageman what evil doers you’re talking about??? you’re lack of information the place they’re living as of now was hit by natural disasters and no one can beat the Mother Nature
You really are learning the ropes now. Filipino resilience is quite amazing. We have been through a lot, but we trust in the Lord that He will not abandon us, whatever happens.carry on, Story!
Couldn’t imagine how strong of a woman Story will be in the coming years. She’s built like a rock and functions like a sunshine. J and Sascha, you did a heck of a parenting job.
On point 💯
Well said!
What doesnt kill you makes you stronger, as Kelly Clarkson said. This ordeal is one of the best things that happened to them. STRONGER!
💯 I really admire how they did of parenting job. Smart & pretty Story 🤗
I adore this family, they are awesome!
Hey guys, Me and my wife have been watching you for about ten days now. We got this new video a few minutes ago. We enjoy watching your videos here in Birmingham, Alabama. We wanna come back to the Philippines when things get better. My wife is Filipino, she's from Negros Occidental and her hometown is La Castellina. You two seem to be a great married couple with your cute little daughter. After watching your videos, we want to check out Siargao on our next trip there, plus we wanna go to Palawan. We met two different bloggers back in 2018, one in Cebu and one in Dumaguete. Like they say, It's more fun in the Philippines. One thing I've noticed about you guys is, you seem genuine just like the Filipinos are and that's one reason I love the Filipino people. Keep your videos coming, Barry & Aming.....
Your baby soo cute became pilipino always happy like nothing happened 👌💕
Learn to adopt, thats whats this episode means escaping is the last resort when nothing is left to gain, all i can say is developing story in ups and downs of life will make her the best person., think of it has a challenge... good luck guys!
Just admiration a whole for this young Family, so proud you are in our Country, The Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤
I like what Sacha said about J's hair " Typhoon Style" hehe made my day. Its nice to see that everything is going ok. I can definitely say that you guys have heart of a Filipino, surviving typhoons like we always do. We love your family. Hugs.
What I admire about your family is how modest, simple, and humble you all are. The values you have are genuine. Story and the dog are very lucky to grow up in a family such as yours.
Your family inspired a lot of people and families including mine.
Thank you!
Yes, it's true.
Yes, agreed with you.. They are admirable family...
Little by little you'll get your wonderful island home back. I hope Phwah Phwah feels a little reassured now that she knows y'all are safe and we're all praying y'all be able to reunite with your families when the time is right💖💖
As a Filipino, I am proud to say that despite the many trials and calamities that we face each year, Filipinos are still able to smile and go on with our daily lives. Our country is far from perfect, but I am proud of the resilience and courage of many Filipinos. I wish you all the best, good health, and the opportunity to see your family soon. Please take care of yourselves, and we will continue to pray for you.
You're building a solid foundation of your daughter on how to live and survive in the most difficult situation. Kudos to you both. Story will carry that experience in the future that will make her successful when she grows up. Praying that our Lord will keep you safe all the time
Hello Eight Miles Family. Nice to here that you are feeling better. Now it's all about surviving so whatever it takes to survive now till things get back to normal. Stay safe. Much love from Arizona ❤
Now you know what makes Filipinos very happy and very resilient people...
love it when you include your daughter's short vlogs, it so cute specially with her british accent
You guys are really becoming Filipinos now you can survive everything that goes on your way.
It's so nice to see the smiles on your face again. More power to you all.
We hit also here in Cebu City, no power supply, drinking water,wi-fi, in my place but we are still survive what ever happened co'z of typhoon 🌀I have a lot of experience regarding typhoon when I was young ths is not my first time. God bless to all, happy new year.!!!
Your simplicity adapting to Filipino culture and resiliency amazes us all the more. Letting Story get involved in cooking, household chores, cleaning and sorting out things is a great training for a young girl like her. She could carry this culture out wherever she goes as she grows older. We simply love to watch your channel and never get bored of it. My wife is a big fan of Story and she even wish "I wish I had a daughter like Story" , One thing we love about her is her joy of helping out and her positivity even when life turns difficult :)
It is essential to learn the old ways of life it can help you in survival situation like are in right now. That is why Filipinos can adapt life in any situation they are used to it. Someday you will appreciate what you are experiencing right now. I know it's very difficult but you'll adjust. It's temporary. Story sure is a strong spirited girl. You have an amazing daughter and you are a great parents. I am hoping everything will be ok for you soon. Stay safe.
Hello from Canada! I came across your You Tube when you first were preparing for the storm. I was shocked by the devastation but very inspired by your efforts. Thank you for your You Tubes and hope you are able to speak with your families.
Everything will be fine soon bro. We"ve been in this situation many times and yet here we are still looking forward for better days ahead.
So wonderfully thriving , making the most of your time- resources & having fun GUYS in the face of the storm of life here in the Philippines. So happy , praying for you all. GOD BLESS you ☺️😉☺️
Now your "life experiences" are paying off! You will be so much stronger mentally after this. Story also is adapting very well...keep going...🥰🙇♀️🙋🏻♀️❤
Jay your family is experiencing diff kind of life, not the usual.. Looks exciting but i know its a hard kind of life.... Bur still beautiful smiles comes out to your faces.. Such an amazing family.
Im always teary eyed everytime I see your vlogs after the typhoon, I can feel your struggle being a survivor of typhoon haiyan myself in 2o13. Godbless to you Jay Sacha and my dear Story!!
What you and your family will realize when you do get a chance to be back to big city living is how wasteful we have all become in the world. The positive that comes out of it is how resilient Story will be as she grows up. Having to go through this kind of experience, survive and recover will make her adaptable to any type of living conditions. We are praying for you and your family’s safety. Hang in there, this too will pass.
I'm so glad that you still stayed positive and resilient in the midst of this disaster. Filipinos love you and will keep supporting you. God bless
Story is an amazing child, how she totally adjust herself to any worst situation. I admire how you grow her well. God bless you !
Wow looks so much better! The additional Crises seems to lead to additional resilience ! Nice to hear the gratitude ! Baby Story is adorable !! Onward and Upward!!
Being a Filipino and and particularly from Cebu who also was badly hit by Typhoon Odette I really am thankful to God that you and your family as well as mine are safe and are coping up to overcome the damages and the trauma yet we all still manage to Smile and greet everyone Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year in spite of. Thanks for loving the Philippines
Happy to see Sascha and Jay laughing and smiling again while sharing their experience in their daily life after the storm👍😍! Story is so cute and adorable... Lovely❤️! Be strong, take care guys and Godbless!
Story is an inspiration a strength to go through thick and thin, praying for your safety and good health, you can manage just like us filipinos with patience and full of hope everything will go back to normal God bless🙏
You did very well Story! You are now 100% Filipino! So happy you're all doing well. I have been communicating with Jays brother before we heard the good news that you're all okay.
Learning survival skills is good for everyone. You’ll never know where you’ll get stuck. Our little story is always a joy to watch. J&S you’re awesome parents. Glad you guys managed to look at the positive side after the disaster. Yeah we’re going to reach 300k. Let’s do this guys!
Story has the best schooling really. All these lessons she's getting now at her age from the world around her, this catastrophe and all the good and bad combined, is worth more than gold to last her lifetime.
Continue praying for you guys and the rest of the victims of Odette… Stay strong. Happy to see Story happy and carefree…
I'm actually new to your channel but i found it very lovely, I'm starting watching your vlogs. Keep safe and hope that everything will back to normal there in siargao and places that destroyed by Typhoon oddette...keep vlogging on your daily routine...love you guys...
Story at such young age is learning how to fight thru adversity thanks to both of you. Life is not rosy nor blooming, hardships are always a part of existence on this planet.
Slowly but surely things will get better for you guys and everyone who got affected by the typhoon! Hang in there
🙏🙏🙏
It's a survival life lessons to everyone,that we Filipinos endures every year and we survives..happy to see you adopting how we been through ..
They're living in Davao now
@@Sunmoon-gj9gy did they leave Siargao?
@@gladiezlbanaria5094 yes
need to restore the windows for protection from the elements like weather, insects,etc. Jay is the right handy man for the job! Am so glad things are getting better and contact has been made with families one step at a time.
Experiencing 22 storms a year is already normal for us. Watching your struggles is kind of refreshing. Brought me back to the old ways. Getting water from the well to do everything like laundry, cooking and etc. The key to Filipino resilience is being positive. Life is hard but if you take a moment to smile and be grateful for being alive, then everything will be lighter.
Lol sometimes we experience 3 consecutive typhoons in a single month
So happy to see you all smiling again and becoming more Filipino each day. God bless you all and may 2022 bring more blessings to your family and to all the Siargaonons.
I’m so sorry for everything you guys have been through, but your spirits are amazing. I new to your channel and I just wanted to wish you all a Happy New Year! Your daughter is precious. Love, peace, happiness and prosperity. Love and be safe!🤗😘🌼🇻🇪💕
I love to see the positivity in your vlog despite all... praying for you guys there...
Adversity is the mother of Filipino's ingenuity and resourcefulness. No electric iron, we used charcoal fed iron; no NAWASA water, we used then deepwell water to wash dishes, clean the house and to take a bath; no light, we used then kerosene lamps and if you have the money, buy 4 stroke gasoline fed generator or if you want a silent operator, then buy solar panel fed lights, fans, radio, etc.; no LPG, we used concrete kalan fed with charcoal or paper-based kalan.
Story so cute and strong. So delighted to see those smiles again, Jay and Sacha 🥰😊. I'm just thinking how your family in UK, although worried, however they must be so proud of you, Jay Sacha and Story, how you are coping with all the challenges. You just don't know you are inspiring a lot of people 🥰🥰🥰
Happy new year guy's,you're amazing family..I admired you guy's ,God bless
Hehe...nice hair fashion, Jay.😁 Glad to hear that everything slowly back to normal. Just stay positive.😊
Signs of Filipino resilience when to see people washing their clothes after the devastation means theirs hope and shows Filipinos character the will to go above and beyond life's adversity.
story melts my heart when she starts talking. she is sonsmart and a sweet little girl. sending love from Melbourne.❤️
I loved your hair do Jay. Story is amazing learning to fetch some water from wells. I used to do this when I was little, well done Story xxx
A Happy2x New Year to all of you..! Prayers and full blessings this year.. stay strong, healthy and resilient.. We will all heal and recover as one..!! Just like what Sacha said, a small step at a time.. stay as happy as always..!GOD BLESS..!
Great job you guys! It’s going to be tough for a while, I admire your strength and resilience! Great example you’re for Story! Stay safe.
Have a blessed 2022. if there is one thing about the Filipino people, is we are resilient despite the challenges. Seeing and following your story is inspiring!
Wishing you all the best 2022.and allways followed you since Thailand.
All around the world is suffering this climate change.very hard ..wishing you all health happiness ans wealth for the Philippines and the world.stay strong we all love youxx
New subscriber here and thru your vlogs im able to see how typhoon Odette really devastated the island but seeing you guys how you survived day by day it gives hope to the island that lives theres …that well water can be very useful for washing laundry , bath and even for
cooking but not safe for drinking water …hoping to see more updates of your video and hope and pray you’ll be able to get an internet connection so you guys can get hold of your family to inform them that what situations you’re in….stay safe always guys …Stay positive and hopeful because God Loves yOu ! Happy New Year 🎆
Love how Story has adapted to post-Odette situation. Simply amazing! Take care always! ❤️
I'm so glad that my favorite Brits found a nearby source of fresh water -- and that the owner was willing to share his precious water source with them. Of course, Sacha's familiarity -- with Portugal's open wells -- was a big help in adjusting to the Siargao well.
Seeing you all smile & just carry on with life despite this disaster makes me feel that you are showing strength & a fighting spirit. Pinoys @ ❤️. Proud of u for staying even when the going gets tough!
Jay, you're really good at fixing things...God bless you and your family..
That’s the spirit 😊.Be safe.
Your family is an example of hope.. Praying for you, Siargao, Cebu, Bohol, Palawan and everyone affected by the typhoon. 🙏
Good morning 8 miles family..oh Story you all learned to be a resillient filipino. Am really admired you for being patient calm on this tough times in your lives. Praying and hoping that LGU in your area will expedite rebuilding the infrastructure and houses that was damaged by this supertyphoon..Stay strong,healthy happy everyone.God be with you always.
You guys always give us possitivity . Continue inspiring the hopeless souls.
We salute of your bravery and resilient of the devastating situation . Hoping you survive maintaining good health and encouragement to still stay in the island positively.
Im glad youre all safe. Im here living here in the city and we just want you that both private, the church and the government here are working to bring relief goods to all those affected provinces. It might just really take a while. Hang in there. God will provide. Stay safe and be strong. We feel your pains because there was a time we experienced the same thing here. Happy New Year to you. God bless!❤
So sorry for the disaster you had and thankful your family made it, God bless you! Suggestion, I saw that well in the yard, that should help you do laundry and some shower by the well(minimizes trip of water fetching), just like our childhood days when we visited our grandparents in the province. I know things will be better later on, hang in there, you’ll make it! Take care…
Happy to see you guys, adapting to filipino way, after the storm life goes on.. love Story see fetching water from "Balon". Keep safe...
Happy to see you guys safe, from the start of your vlog after the typhon, I don't miss any one of your vlog even its another vloggers showing all of you are safe. Watching you from canada, GOD bless you.
I commend you the loving parents of Story teaching her to be resilience.
Always praying 🙏🙏🙏💕for you and helping you by not skipping ads.
You guys are one of the strongest and most resilient family. You can choose to fly back home when faced with this kind of disaster but instead you stick around and rebuild with such positive attitude and smile. God bless you a prosperous, safe , healthy and happy 2022.
I had so much admire of you guys… i think you adopt the resiliency of filipinos hehe, what is important is that you are still together , Godbless you all and May this 2022 brings better life after this calamity.
In every storm there will always be rainbow. Look how your channel skyrocketed and you have more audience this pass few days. You guys are blessed and thank you for sharing that with us by updating what’s happening in siargao besides the good vibes that you guys share. Much loved from Los Angeles
Over ONE MILLION views!! Wow! Never happened to them before. Now J is saying BRING MORE STORMS!
Yes, I noticed it also, 10 days ago their subscribers are 218k
Viewing your vlog is like looking at a reality show. It's also becoming a show of Story as I am keeping track of how she grow up the time when you arrived in the country and decided to stay here on this island of Siargao. Hoping to see Moanna growing up in this reality show up to the moment she is going to get a job and then find her man for her husband someday....Hope you can live again with resilience just the same as how the people living there on the island. God Bless you, good people.
Story is agreat brave girl. She is a sunshine.
Story talking is one of my favourite in your vlog aside from also waiting for your place to be better soon story is a ray of sunshine that give us smile the way she talk like an adult baby she such cutie, beautiful and smart little girl watching from Singapore 🇸🇬 wish u all happy new year and keep safe
Hi there, thank you for living the life in the Philippines. Now imagine those who have grown that life for many many years of building then devastation then rebuilding year in year out. At the end of the day it is all about the basic necessities of life, such as love ones, survival, hope and happiness. Please make a lesson summary of your experience of a life in the Philippines and what those lessons can help others in other parts of the world.
I'm happy to see your family calm and at peace rather than the other day ..your daughter gives a positive view just to see her smile makes Filipinos be brave to face the challenges.
I've watched most of your videos. I'm hoping that your family and the rest of the Filipinos in Siargao to easily recovered from that devasta ting typhoon. I'm very amazed that you've adapted yourself to be a Filipino. God will always be there to bless you guys. Be strong and positive. Things will be alright soon. TAKE CARE❤
Happy New Year everyone! So good to see you gradually coping with the situation. Take care.
Story is fun to watch.. Everything will be OK in time
Thank you so much for staying with the Filipinos and not leaving with the first plane out. You are a remarkable family.
God bless you guys we are praying for you and for all that have been affected by this event. Take care EMFH!
You guys are honest with how you feel about the situation and yet you are also showing positivity and strength amidst it all! Story will have lots of stories to tell when she grows up. I can see a bit of Filipino in you. May you continue to soldier on along with many Filipinos who have also been through the tragedy. ❤️
I'm so happy you were able to get in touch with your families! It was great to see your smiles and see things progressing. Stay strong and resilient! Much love from NY!
You're amazing family, resilient and persevering during hard times. You smile to lighten the burden, just like us, Filipinos. You will be fine.
Happy New Year!😊
you guys are resilient ... having that smile after all of that...you'll experience first hand how Filipinos deal with such situation.. infact you are one of us now
we've experience that after typhoon Sendong we had no running water for a month luckily we have a well in our lot so it was a good exercise filling up large buckets.
Glad to see you two relaxed a bit and to see you both smile again, you're all in my prayers everyday. Hi sweet Story Ember!!!
I wouldn't be surprised if this storm turned out to be a blessing in disguise for both your family and for everyone on the island. This is gonna be an amazing story once the island is recovered. I am 100% calling it, right now!
survival mode kicks in. I love seeing you guys coping with everything. my children have spent most of their lives here abroad. I wish we could travel back to the provinces and let my kids experience what’s life without much gadgets and luxuries. wish you all the best 8 miles from home. stay safe and god bless.☺️❤️
