You are very beautiful and intelligent person. My advice to you is to be financially stable. You can explore the universe when you have enough. But mostly put God first in your life and God will take care of you. God bless.
You gave a glimpse of, and walked us through, your life that for sure many will be inspired. Your brave soul took you to where you are now, and it paid off. The path you have taken is less travelled, so to speak, but it is worth it. Your bold steps have opened windows in ways that others may emulate. Kudos!
Happy New Year. You are inspiration to others. Keep going Barbie. Thanks for sharing with us your journey. Wish you good health, happiness and more success in life. Take care and god bless. 🙏❤️😊
My family and I will be visiting Siargao in June. I'll make sure I get my daughter and her friend to meet you and tell them about exploring and get out of their comfort zone. She is half Filipina and Austrian but born and bread in Illinois. Hope to see you then. 😊
You are a courageous great person ❤ you know what you want in life ❤ happiness, caring and love is your greatest strength and passion in life ❤ take care of yourself ❤ other people need you in their lives
You are a strong young lady. I’m proud of your accomplishments and experiences in life. Thank you for sharing your life with us. My advice to also to younger people are make sure you make yourself whole first with God, and don’t depend on someone else for your success and always work hard whenever you are. God bless everyone.❤🇺🇸🇵🇭❤️❤️
Exactly what I needed right now ❤ a better insight for my Life. I hope to remember these while dealing with stress and anxiety. I Thank God for your wisdom you have shared. You can be a Life coach. I remember listening to a song "Sunscreen" by Buz Lurman, same feel when I've watched this video 😊
phil is beautiful because the locals are the friendliest and most hospitable. they take a bath everyday rain or shine. body odor is a big issue for them.
I appreciate your courage and willingness to challenge yourself. Your story sounds a lot like mine. I didn't really identify with many of the kids I graduated with and I had little interest in drinking and silly partying. I traveled the world, went to Uni across the country, love meeting new people and cultures - I'd come back to my home town and many people never left, never tried anything new. It was kinda depressing. I would say things do take a little different shape when you get older. At 47 I still love to travel but with two young children its whole new adventure and I dont even need to leave the area. As a family we have traveled all over the US, Europe, Mexico, Costa Rica, and Hawaii, so we certainly still travel, but being home is good too. Keep following your heart and you may be surprised how you change. I'd say, be cautious marrying or having kids in foreign countries. It can create a very complex life for yourself.
Ms. Barbie try do more videos in your local place, meet your local friends and introduce them to us so we your subscribers would see also your nice place.

@@IslandBarbieSiargao It's more fun in the Philippines. Just came back from a 2 months vacation and am looking forward to my next trip latter part of this year. Might see you in Siargao (on my bucket list). All the best for 2025!
Yea exploring by yourself in another way of living is not bad for a purpose of experience that leads you for a better understanding why you're living on this earth and for your future plans in life. Come out from your comfort zone and explore yourself to the world to discover another way of life. Make your life colorful, face the challenges and difficulties in life to become a stronger BARBIE in Siargao 🇵🇭❤️✌️✌️✌️.
Very inspirational! Can you do another one on operational and tutorial on moving and living there? Passport issues, visas, getting payment processing set up, healthcare etc et.
❤U are doing great in Ur , to have a meaningful, fruitful and joyful one💖 Congratulations💖 and thanks be to God for having such kind of perspective in life💖 May God bless U to be with people who will radiates unto U unconditional love ❤wherever U are, and most of all be blessed with good health, safety and right pleasant disposition🙏🤍
Good day Brianna, If you want to settle for good in the Philippines, with families, you MUST plan ahead for FINANCIAL STABILITY !! To be poor in the Philippines is HELL !! Set up immediately some businesses, maybe a grocery, restaurant, a resort, a longing like small hotel, a fast watercracfts for island commuting, etc. Stay safe always Brianna, and Good Luck to all your good plans. ❤😊!! ❤😊!! ❤😊!!
My fear is money. That is why I won't stay longer for a month. I go back to NY to make money. How you get money in your first time living in the Philippines. You know the Philippines is a very low currency to the dollar.
thats a major concern. unless you have retirement money or you have an online job, you need sustainable income to move to another country. Plus your ability to unlearn and relearn, adjust and adapt. Barbie is fortunate to have an open mindset, but not all people are like that.
You can’t live without a toilet paper( money) Use a holy water 😅 You should know about the four concept of life. The four musketeers not one Musketeer( MATERIAL)only. People now a days MONEY is the god or above of all. To make you happy look good and respectful status of life. The four musketeers is the answer of your loneliness about the money.😅
People change and learn without having to move to another country. You are not wise or old enought to judge people. Go discover yourself in the Philipines since you can't do it in the USA. You are just stepping down into a society that is simpler for you to adjust to. Lots of philipinos would love to escape to the US because of endemic poverty, lack of healthcare, and dismal career opportunities . Lots of luck to you. I hope your move is not permanent. Otherwise you won't have the skills and mindset to succesfully reenter the USA at an older age.
Hey Richard, who even told you that Filipinos are dying to go to the US? Damn your country is a sh*thole! Many Filipinos now would aspire to come to Japan or Korea or Switzerland for a vacation --but not the US. LOL FYI, a numBer of Americans are flocking to Asia ..and the PH to escape from your country. Stop the illusion and wake up! . The American dream is a crap, its a scam.. ITS OVER.
So if you are not an influencer how you will live in the Phils.? You are young, how you will afford rent, food, transportation and hospitalizations? Please stop judging Americans you never know how Filipinos love to have your life in America.
Let me make this clear on behalf of the Filipinos : It is a common misconception that all of us wants to go to the US. Heck No! THAT IS ABSOLUTELY UNTRUE. We live a simple lives in the Philippines, if we have a choice and if there is an abundance of job opportunities here, we wouldn't move. And take note : Middle to upper class Pinoys have the ability to travel. We travel.more than most Americans, i bet. Given a chance, most of us would dream to travel WITHIN the 7,642 Island of the Philippines, or to Japan, Korea or Switzerland. US is out of the question! We are aware of whats going on there. We are not ignorant. So please. stop assuming and pretending you know everything about us coz you dont. REAL TALK HERE. REAL TALK.
@ ok real talk, I used to live in Dubai for 15 years and I don't want to go back to Phils. because I'm afraid to walk around Manila. There's so many pickpocketers and scammers and will take advantage of you. Even my own family only wants $ from me. There's one point I don't want to go back home on my vacation because I have to please them and give them "pasalubong". It's cheaper to go to Europe and Asian countries. It's your choice if you want to stay in Philippines. My opinion is just my opinion that without money to move around you are miserable. I worked there before deciding for good to US. It your choice what do you want in life! For me it's expensive to live a life if you are in lower or middle class dues to cost of living. IT ONLY MY OPINION! Wag ka pakialemera!!!
@marierose4526 It's true what you said about Filipinos, most of them are hypocrites because they pretend to say they don't want America, but if Uncle Sam offers them a visa, they will definitely accept it.

phil is beautiful because the locals are the friendliest and most hospitable. they take a bath everyday rain or shine. body odor is a big issue for them.
