- BACK AT A MOUNTAIN VILLAGE IN LUBUAGAN KALINGA... AND I WAS OVERWHELMED WITH KINDNESS AND BEAUTIFUL FILIPINO COMMUNITY SPIRIT!
This is the second part of my experience back with this amazing community in Kalinga. I first visited Upper Uma back in 2019, and was inspired by a Manong named Teddy, and his friend Pakas. On this day, I went back to the village hoping to simply say "Thank You".
What I got... was another amazing experience with the community, and so much inspiration! Manong Teddy wasn't home, but I had the chance to meet his wife, who overwhelmed me with a gift. I was given 5kg of rice from their community terraces. Just such a heat warming experience here in Kalinga. I am so thankful for this village in the mountains, and everyone who I have met here.
I will be back...
Filipino mountain village, and a wonderful wife who overwhelmed me with a gift...
POWER ON!

Pinoy hospitality, astig! Kahit d ka kilala o pamilya they will welcome you in their house. And kahit konti ano meron sila they share. Proud to be a Filipino! 😊
hey we make also Vlogs in the Philippines, support (sub) would mean a lot hehe
Ganyan tlga mga igorot..
Not only igorot po basta taga probinsia mababait ang mga tao.
the best talaga...
yes it's true try to visit our hometown Lubuagan
Filipinos is very warm and welcoming people,hospitable,generous that’s makes proud and shout to the whole world that I am a Filipino.
)No need to cry Brod, I shed happy tears on your behalf; when Ate Nene displayed your jersey and stated that Manong Teddy tucked it away as a souvenir to remember you, and her displaying it proudly, to me it was a profound moment.
P.S. I rewatched the original vlog from three years ago. That kape moment was indeed heartwarming.

I love it how spontaneous you are Kulas, in Philippines Culture eating together and sharing together with one plate and with bare hands consider as "sacred". You really embody Filipino culture and heritage. Kudos to you Kulas.
Heirloom rice - cultured on the ancient old terraces and re-cultivated gene throughout the years. It is also harder to cultivate vs. ones grown on the lowlands. They only crop out 2x a year as opposed to 3x in the lowlands... parting their home use rice to someone special is indeed humbling!
Tinawun.
thank you for featuring the Mountain Province and extreme north luzon tribes! proud igorota here!
Wow!!!! Hats off to the whole community. You can really see that the Filipino hospitality is ingrained in all of them. It is very heart warming to see and I am so proud of all of them. Whatever they have they don’t think twice to share to others and welcome them in their home.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The'"toughness "of the cordillerans' i guess comes from roots of their ancestors being a warriors but at the same time very hospitable people
Kyle, hi! I am so bursting with pride right now, knowing that my filipino people, no matter what culture we belong, what island we lived from all iver the Philippines, we are all one as filipino. Our new President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. is right, we should be united as one, a Filipino. As I said, I am bursting with pride, because filipino are truly a giving. & sharing people. You see, how respectable they are to you? They let you try & eat their food first as a sign of respect in their Kalinga culture. Of course Kulas, you are so respectful to all of them. It is how you interact with them. You can go to all the islands in the Philippines, & get the same responds from them, pure respect!
Love your tattoo Kyle, Vancouver Island on the Lt. foot, & was that on the Rt,, a tattoo of the whole Phil. Islands?
This reminds me a funny story about 10 yrs. ago. I was in mainland Vancouver, & I asked direction from the bus driver, I said to him, sorry Sir to ask from you, but I don't know Vancouver very well because I am from the island. And, he said, I know, you are from the Philippine islands, I kinda laugh & said, yeah, but I meant Vancouver island, from Nanaimo. We both kinda laugh! Anyway, goodnight Kyle, continue what you are doing, spreading love & goodwill to all ! Glad you are reaching the very North part of the Philippine islands. The Bb. box should be on its way to Cateel in 2 mos. period, shipped from mainland Vancouver. God bless you in your travels, keep safe!
It was a bit of a shame Manong Teddy was away but you get to meet his wife and other villagers. And left with precious village gifts.
After watching this vlog, I had to hunt and find the where it all started; how you met Manong Teddy and the story behind the jersey.
In that vlog, Manong Teddy was kind and hospitable to have offered a cup of coffee in his humble abode. He even showed you off where you parked your bike. It was nice of you to offer your jersey as a token of your appreciation.
A genuinely kind person Manong Teddy is.
Kulas, once again your vlogs convey the spirit of a people I vaguely know. Ah but slowly, video by video, a light is shining. Many warm thoughts to you and the people you encounter. Thanks!
Na feel nko na daw mahibi si Kulas when he say byebye with the sacks of rice
And after a minute
Tama ged ko 😂
Ok lang na Kulas I feel you
They made the strongest brooms that last a lifetime 😂 we have igorots in mindanao who made that too,they’re located in Maco,davao de oro,by profession they are miners and during past time they make those, they’re from benguet who permanently resides in mindanao
That's our practice in Cordillera,a visitor cannot go home without something , something simple like rice ,chicken, or anything to show our love and appreciation,
I don't mind living in those mountaintop villages. Living a simple life, enjoying the friendly hospitality of the Kalinga people.
Their hospitality really warms my heart. Life there is simple but very comfortable and well. Everybody seems happy and content.
that’s a lot of “abasto” (pabaon).. manong thinks the meat is “ugsa” a deer.
Wow those "Brooms"" (Escóbas) are very stylish and they look strong.. They would also make a nice item to hang on a wall to show off. 👍🏾👍🏾
How many families live in the Village.??
Pork......you can never go wrong with Pork no matter how you fix it........Pork is "numero Uno"!!
I felt the connection you've experience with this place Kulas, I myself belong to a close tight community (there in Cordillera Abra) where almost all the entire villagers are my akin..
Very inspiring vlog #BecomingFilipino🙂🇵🇭Life is beautiful especially when you're sorrounded by amazing people 💖🌸 The world is a better place when there's great connection with everyone ☺️💖 I honestly love that community, so peaceful 💖Be safe and thanks for sharing positivity everyday ☺️❤️💖🌸🇨🇦
hey we make also Vlogs in the Philippines, support (sub) would mean a lot hehe
You made connection there indeed. Everyone was saying, “ingat” as you leave and you got pasalubongs from them to take back home. Definitely worth coming back, right? By then, Teddy will be home. Great one. Thank you and Power On!
Very nice kulas…I almost cried when I saw you carrying the bag of rice and the walis god bless and be safe
I went back and watched your first interaction with (brother) Teddy 3yrs ago. You remembered and visited again 3yrs later. You’re a good man, Kulas!
Same here
That is the mark of a good man. He cherishes his friends.
threading Loving faith in the mountain village, brought my birth roots in 1951-68... God has an awesome way of caring for His people. God bless you and us all! Amen! watching in Australia with that little mountain village girl- such a small world we live graciously in gratitude.
Eve if you missed Manong Teddy, you get more in return. You met his awesome relatives and the people of that village.
The igorots is like that they will give you something when you get back home that is our culture, its a kind of religion or style in Philippines.....as long as you are in their house part of the family.... the more you give away the more bless you received from God (Kabonian) as a genuine filipino, got a good heart, kindness and hospitality .........thank you for the VISIT...❤️❤️🇵🇭🇬🇧
Thank you Sir Kulas for your kindness and love to the people’s of kalinga,our kababayan Cordelians.God bless you all there
From the fact that it once called the capital of the Philippines for 73 days in the first republic, Lubuagan still an underrated place. Nevertheless, history of this place must broadly acknowledge by historians, culturally and politically.
Proud Ylubuagan here. ❤️
Wait, I still remember one of your vlogs that you just visited this place.. wow time is so fast. And now you are back. make sure you cover that sack of rice with a 2nd layer of big plastic bag. It might rain and you only ride a scooter.
Thank you kulas for this vlog... Welcome back to our place duya as... My relatives are enjoying having convo with you...👏
Kulas the way you smile with the people speak more than just words. This video has to be 10 out of 10. Thank you for taking us with you on your adventures. 👏👏👏👏👏👍🇺🇸
When you said you wanted to cry… I wanted to cry with you. This is so heartwarming thank you Kulas may the Good Lord protect you always. Praying for traveling mercy. This place is legit power on!!!
We Filipinos are like that, hospitable to a fault. We value guests like brothers and sisters. Some may not show it at first but once you warmed up with them, it's almost unending.
Wohoo! #fighterboys unite! This is very heartwarming Kulas :) I have an aunt-in-law who’s a native of Kalinga. I must say they are the healthiest :)
i envy your immersion experience so touching you have come back to Teddys village once again!
I am sad that you didn't see Manong Teddy, but so happy that you connected with the village people. Manang Nene and the rice: wow and the broom from Pakas. What a way to connect with people! That food looked good too.
It's a nice reconnection again with the people you met once upon a time. You're a really good person Kulas. Power on.
Kyle, enjoy your journey.The people of the Cordilleras are happy people.They have meaning and purpose
in their lives.Isn’t happiness our ultimate goal? You’ve experienced an emotional “HIGH” since you arrived in this area.
It moved, touched your heart and evoked strong feelings.It means ……..you have arrived.
Manong Teddy's family is so kind,you are so blessed Kyle to meet them😍
hey we make also Vlogs in the Philippines, support (sub) would mean a lot hehe
Kulas...you should include in your blogs are how to make local items like brooms, ratan furnitures, farmers on how they plant rice, irrigations etc.... just a thought. Keep doing a great job!
A lot of those watching this, watched when you met Manong Teddy for the first time. It was really a heartwarming vlog.
The 1M celebratory scooter journey of BFF ( BECOMING FILIPINO FRIEND)....👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🎉🎉🎉🎉
Coffee is life , Rice is life and rice with coffee is sometimes life also sa Pilipinas 👍 Nice video Kulas. Don't be sad bro you're doing good with your life and leaving happy memories with the people you meet along the way.👍
🇬🇧❤️🇵🇭☮️🍻👍✌️
You are getting more of Visayan accent. Adding "Ba" in the end of every sentence.
In the end of every sentence ba 😂
I love what you are doing Kulas bringing us even to the most remote area of our country. You are the first person I see doing these . Please continue your job and we will support you .God bless , guide and protect you in all your missions.Good luck.
Kulas I really love u comeback to this place.... I watch many times ur blog wit Manong Teddy.... WHAT a beautiful connection... Stay safe my friend...
Ingat lagi colas Godbles,sarap mgluto dami nila kahoy pang gatong.
Oh I remembered that shirt you give him and his so happy wow you’re especially to him Kulas he take care that shirt 👍👍👍
crying is not weakness its an emotion we need to show, thats the thing about toxic masculinity wherein men should not cry, but in reality real men show emotions in crying, its okay to cry bro,
God bless your way Kulas 🙏🙏🙏
So happy and grateful for visiting different places and culture round the Philippines, Mabuhay ka❤️❤️❤️
Sponsor your friends to travel to Mindanao Bai Kulas. For sure it is surreal feeling for them to have a vacation away from the mountain. It is like travelling abroad considering that they are living in the North their whole life. Let them experience the beauty of the south. It would be a great content for your vlog as well.
I always wonder how they made those brooms... Wow! This is an awesome adventure so far. You made some great friends over in kalinga...
Next time Sir,try to visit Balbalan,Kalinga...just close to Lubuagan...
100% will. I wanted to this trip... but scooter issues and timing didn't work out
try to visit TANUDAN KALINGA too Kulas.u can see LUBO RICE TERRACES, SILENT MOUNTAIN OF BINARATAN IN DACALAN
The warm hospitality and the generousity of the Filipinos regardeless of status in life are one of the most incredible traits of Filipinos...so much pride and respect...hope they make you feel their sincere love to you Kulas...💚💟❤🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍✌🤝👌👏👏👏
It's like Im having the connection from the family from you that saying goodbye is so hard. I feel it from the start that Kulas feel the same too.. Cheer up Man your doing great.
What I heard from them arguing with the meat if its Ugsa or Alingo, meaning is it Deer or wild boar.. Hehe. "Nabangsit daw meaning mabaho. Hehe
try to visit gaang balbalan kulas
Kulas you are a great ambassador from the west. Keep spreading the Aloha.
Love this video. I am a Philippines born American. You have been to a place I may not ever have the opportunity to go. As you were leaving it felt as if you were leaving a bit of heaven on earth. Thank you so much for sharing.
That's the rice I am missing during my childhood days. Survives even with little water in the soil.
God is great..thank you for everything you do..you're sooo amazingly awesome wonderful nature ❤️ thank u 💖 😊
hindi ko maiwasan magisip si kulas kasi masyado malihin nakita naman natin na umalis sya may bitbit eh ano naman kaya ang binigay ni kulas sa kanila??
mukhang di alam ni kulas ang pilipino way na kailangan mong magbigay in return dahil nakakahiya iyon,kapos pa naman sila sa hirap,kailangan bigyan mo sila ng masmalaki kasi mas may pera ka,mali ba ang sinabi ko?
@@ponssantos3232 it's our joy to share/give something to our guests w/o expecting na may ibibigay dn cla..hope u understand our culture..
What a shame you never saw Teddy this time but at least you met his family and friends, with promises to return with pals. What a lovely little community up there in the mountains. Cheers for sharing and safe travels :)
Coming from u brod, if u have a good intention, good thing will get back to you, that community definitely share a good vibes,power on💪💪💪
He was asking or wasn't sure if it's wild boar or deer. And sending you something like rice is good fortune. It's our tradition🤣😂😅
Thanks to a commenter here who shared the link to the 1st visit, I was able to find out how it all started. That was touching and so was this experience.
Filipinos are sooo nice!
This video reminds me to live simply , living life to the fullest is not about what you have accumulated materially, I think its time to go home...
Ganyan ang lahi naming mga igurot mabubusog Ka may baon kapa 😊😊😊😊
Can't wait for your return trip with the Cateel Crew hopefully with Kumander Daot or maybe some of the Fighter Boyz? That's gonna be one heck of an epic series!
I did a marathon of your Apayao vlog 3 years ago. It still fun to watch even I have seen it. Next would be Kalinga. View of the mountains and her forrest are still fascinating.
I watched (again) the episode where you met Manong Teddy. This made me smile all throughout Kulas. Enjoy Cordillera. May the good Lord be with you always. Please go to Benguet again :)
The guy saying ugsa meaning it's a deer meat.and my gosh Yvonne is a very beautiful kalinga girl.
Good morning Kyle "Kulas" & the nice people of Kalinga❣️ Ugsa means Deer or Baboy Ramo means Wild pig or Wild boar ❣️🐗🇺🇸🇵🇭 Another visit down memory lane. Be safe ❣️💪🙏🥰
Baboy ramo (wild boar) is alingo.
Hi Kyle watching from San Francisco California USA 🇺🇸 Thank You so much 💙I miss home
It's heart warming experience Kulas a Filipino way of appreciating your effort of visiting a friend they are more than happy to see you and give you a pabaon. it's a remembrance for them huhuhu nakakaiyak
Giving something to guest is one beautiful culture of cordillerans..if u visit ones house they always give u something to take home,be that rice,fruits, vegetables,souvenirs and sometimes live chickens/ducks..
hey we make also Vlogs in the Philippines, support (sub) would mean a lot hehe
Very healthy foods SA kalinga the best ang mga gulay sobrang swerte nila sa lupain nila.
kulas you are my inspiration i wils i was not cought up in the westren culture so much to enjoy my filipino family, i am canadin fron vanvouver island like you and i am married to my filipina asawa for 11 years. i hope when i retire there i can meet you some time and get more inspiration from you my brother.
Your first trip to this place was one of my favourite vlogs. So glad you've visited them again. I can't wait for the boys to visit with you.
Very cool Kyle...yeah I feel what you feel... wonderful and very heartbreaking... goosebumps... thanks Kulas...
Very special episode......❤❤❤
Can't believe that was 3yrs ago... Seems like just yesterday.. manong Teddy is indeed a Senior Citizen now 😁
That's a local jerky for the Cordillera's. That's the local way of preserving the meat because it's more flavorfull if you mixed it with beans and veggies.
Thats like a tradition in Kalinga I guess, they would not let you go home without bigas haha that was my experience the first time I visited the place.
Thank you Kulas,when you said “I don’t wanna show weakness.I dont wanna cry.Thank you for the inspiration…
support handmade Kalinga brooms! 🙏🤙🇵🇭
Ouhs! Life in a remote bario is tough, am related. All foods are organic. I think that rice mnang gave is 100% percent organic, and mnang wants to give you more. By telling why lima lang.
You’re a brave man going there by yourself! Glad you made friends with them that would last a lifetime! It’s nice to connect with other people and know their culture and lifestyle
not brave. realistic. so many good people around
@@BecomingFilipinoohhh my gash Kulas, grabe ka talaga .. hirap at pawis ang ginagawa mo , ur doing it with good vibes 👏👏👏 power on Kulas .. God bless
Such a beautiful family 👪 you visited!
