It's something that can be given by anyone and have impact on others' lives forever. You have a very good heart and it's good to see how you want others to know how beautiful and unique the Filipino culture is, and they may not appreciate it as much as you do but your effort and dedication to do so is much appreciated.

    Your so Hommy in Bacolod. Just saying that you're more than a Pilipino than a Korean from Busan. Been there too in Inchon and Busan I love the countryside bus ride in Korea. Anyway, your specialty is. Kindest in your heart as growing up and learn the very kindness of Filipino culture, you have it, warm, gentle, the most important is you don't forget where you have grown up and learned the culture. We have a saying that " Ang hindi marunong tumigning sa sa sariling wika ay mas mabaho pa sa sariwang isda." As a child, I remember that too well. I have been around the world and home is still the Philippines for me. I miss the place so much and thank you for the many memories you shared. Ur so blesses Jessica with friends and relatives is all that matters in life. Being so happy bless you more.

    Funny thing she used to be my batch mate back in grade school. I think she used to be my classmate in grade 5 then after grade 6 she moved. Didn’t think much about it and her after than but then suddenly on one outing me and my friends started to reminisce about our old classmates who moved and her name popped up in my mind and thats when they told me she has a TH-cam channel now and now here she is. Definitely proud of her for where she is now. Idk if she remembers me since we were only classmates for one school year in grade 5.

    Philippines might not be rich as other country but the the memories and happiness you spent with its people are unforgettable. Even foreigners are inlove to it because they never felt the same way to theirs.
    Philippines is not philippines without its local food. Philippines is not philippines without its people. I am lucky because i got to see the rural and urban place itself.

Really heartwarming for you reminiscing those childhood memories with your swimming team friends. Bacolod, your first and old home, will always be your second home ever. So very thankful, Jessica, for sharing your nostalgic trip in Bacolod. What a wonderful reunion and another memorable part of your life!

    I never imagine for all the places here in the Philippines sa bacolod pa sia nag landing hehe and she still remembers her Ilonggo words also she's very down to earth and for "ay DIPUGA!" means " oh shi* " haha! maayu lang maayu nga pamilya gin dakoan mo kudos for her. no wonder most of Koreans like the Philippine culture coz my wife is a teacher and teaches English with Koreans here in ILOILO and they love her, even her Japanese students liked her.

    As a Bacolodnon, this vlog really strums my heart. I can relate with the scenery, the words, and the places. I can feel the nostalgia even if it's not my personal experience. I just hope I can meet or come across you during your stay here, Jessica. 🥺

    Since I saw the people reactions to her, there's no doubt that she is a Filipino not by blood but in the heart. And because she grew up in Bacolod no wonder the people out there treated her as one of them. Yeah I agree 100% she's not a fisher unlike other foreign vloggers. Lucky for her she lived in one city called City Of Smiles " The MALAMBING PLACE in the Philippines".

    literally cried tears of joy. I felt so emotional watching this as if I was the one receiving the love and thoughtfulness, nakakaproud, nakakatuwa. Filipinos really are naturally hospitable and it's a trait I'm most proud of. Love you, Jes and thank you for (virtually) bringing us with you to your home.

    The "hagod sa ligod" of teacher Nonz mom when she met Jessica and the "salo-salo" they gave her is a great definition of how much they love Jessica. :) This vlog made me smile all throughout coz its really heartwarming.

    How touching and warm these memories are...sometimes or oftimes one of the hallmarks of true happiness is - it's not found in money, but from the simplicity of those heartfelt relationships and love from the people and places we made memories with...I can relate with such childhood memories here..

      @denniszenanywhere 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As an orphan it’s hard for me to relate to all this but I’m touched somehow. Didn’t have a family of my own growing up. Unusual for me since I live in the states now and that I have no one to return to. Which may be why I don’t miss Philippines as you guys. But glad to see so many Filipinos know the reason they want to go back home is to see their families.

    • @Nikoo2o643
      @Nikoo2o643 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@denniszenanywhere just as a citizen of the world. You should see the Philippines. Great beaches, great food, and it’s quite affordable. If you’re the type who needs the modern, clean, discipline environment, it might be a turnoff.
      As a Filipino who grew up in the states too. And I also love it here too. But there’s something about belonging that pulls me back to Philippines as my compass. US and Philippines are home for me though. You gotta visit at least once.

Thank you for this vlog. Appreciate it very much. I love hearing Filipinos speaking in their native tongue even though they have been away from their native country for so long.

    Same feeling nung bumalik aq sa hometown q sa nueva ecija after 12yrs living abroad, i left the Philippines when i was 14. Shocked at first sa dami ng ngbago but at the same time i felt nostalgic, yung mga lugar noon na ibang iba na at mga lugar na hindi dn ngbago pero mukang napagdaanan n ng panahon,masaya na malungkot.
