Hello, the first time I came to Dumaguete was in 1989, I have been to the boulevard many times. As you say, the Filipino people are very polite and helpful. I have experienced this in all the times I have been there. Hope I get a trip to Dumaguete in September
Nice, informative walking tour. It was as if I was there walking side by side with you. Falling in love with the Philippines seems almost a given. And if the women are as beautiful as you say they are, not to fall in love with them might be hard to do. Can hardly wait to get there
Mr. Sunshine Shoulders, i want to thank you so much for this video. I am scheduled to arrive in Dumaguete in a few more weeks, for my first visit with my Filipino wife. I was praying for God to show me something to encourage my visit with my wife. We live there, but I to was also delayed with the new rule change's. I just want to make sure that with my recent vaccination, that I will be allowed to enter. I really want to meet you, because you have really encouraged me a lot. Thanks! I'm on Whatsapp, Facebook and messenger, (Oliver Freeman). You are a lifesaver, my dear brother. I look forward to hear from you.
Thank you Mr Shoulder Sunshine..for showing us how Dumaguete City is becoming amazing.. Watching here in Rome Italy. But I'm from Bacong..NegrosOriental..
Actually Silliman University was the one institution that made Dumaguete famous all over the Philippines established in 1901 by American missionaries. It has 10,000 students from 53 countries on a 155 acres of property.
Thanks for another video. I really enjoy your walk & talk style. The walks remind me of some of my best vacation memories in SE Asia. Your way of talking is like an old friend, dealing out your knowledge and experience. Thanks for the solid advice.
I was in Dumaguete in 2019.. stayed at the Tip Top Hotel.. my plan is to live in the Philippines or at least part of the time.. In Dumaguete Valencia, Negros Oriental area.. :)
Appreciate the walkabout on the promenade and commentary. You made that couple's day by giving them a donations. You have a good heart brotherman. Lets see if dudes will heed your advice once the country opens. Stay safe
Had to comment on the busses. Back in the mid to late 80's I was stationed at Clark AB, Angeles city. We would catch the busses to Manila, Baguio, La Union and such. We nicknamed the air-conditioned busses Rabbit busses and the non air-conditioned busses chicken busses . Main reason ac busses would not allow animals, chickens, goats, dogs and the chicken busses would. Heck, they would be piled up on top of the chicken buses. Good times, and yes sometimes we were cheap and took the chicken busses!!
Calvin…as usual..loving the scenery and the commentary….thank you, I am living vicariously through you and these videos😊😊😊😊…Excellent video again …can’t wait to come over and visit
Calvin I live in Valencia and do business in Dumaguete. You're right on in your assessment of the area. Except the traffic is much lighter now because we're on level 3 lockdown.
Thanks Bro, as usual another great & informative clip. Sorry to hear about your unpleasant experiences. Having got to know you watching your clips, I feel the overwhelming majority of people you deal with day to day respect and accept you without thinking twice about it. Take care & God bless.
I am a Filipino and glad to see foreigners. I don't care about color, religion, or where you are from. Just follow rules and respect our culture. There is nothing to it except those two. You will see racist people like anywhere else or bad people trying to rip you off. But generally, we are good people and willing to help foreigners anyway we can. My grandfather was also a foreigner from China. I myself endured racism because of my Chinese heritage.
Nice place I walked the boulevard at night and had no problem at all. The people are super friendly and there's lots of live bands and nice restaurants.
Dumaguete is such a beautiful place. By the way I am from Bais City, hope you can come and experience our Dolphin and Whale watching. Just subscribed to your channel Sir.
Cool. One Day I might travel over there . I’m chatting with a women over there. She has complacations but if we click things might change . Stay safe over there
Another very nice outing at the fantastic city with the friendly people, and beautiful boulevard, Dumaguete City, the Philippines! Thank you so much, my dear Calvin, for great sharing! Good luck and wish you all the best. Be safe, stay safe, and keep wearing your face mask! Best regards/Ned 👍👍
Fun fact: Dumaguete has also a branch of the Central Bank of the Philippines ( Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas) its a white gated and guarded fenced building along the National Highway. They distribute and process Philippine peso currency and oversee the entire banking system of the country.
Ya Calvin , love d boulevard very relaxing . I have been der only once way back 1997 ,after my trip to Bacolod . Would b glad to visit again ASAP. From d video , alot of changes unlike b4. Enjoy ur trip der Calvin . Cheers♥️🙏
Visited Dumagete in 2019...stayed at the Bethel one night only...had to move...seems to be a converted hospital...didn't like the vibe. Dumagete is a lovely city...I truly enjoyed the energy. Hope to be back again one day.
Thanks boss! Im a cChinese-Filipino from Manila. Subscribed a few days ago and been watching your vids. You put out good content. Im a foodie. Can you share your perspective on our local food from an American perspective? 😊
Welcome to my channel and thanks for your support Nathan. I love most of the food here but there are some dishes I haven't tried. It really depends on who's cooking it too.
Very nice video tour man. Looks very relaxing and eye popping at the same time if you know what I mean. (White shorts) lol Why were those guys riding on the outside of the truck cab @17:28 though haha
Love the video. I've been to Dumaguete quite a few times. The boardwalk is really looking great. Used to eat at a place called Moon Cafe near Silliman campus. Did you say the Balikbayan visa is no longer good for one year? I need to find out. Hope to be over there soon. Thanks and good luck😀
"Don't fall in love in the PI, fall in love with the PI instead." The 2% of men that take your "Boots on the Ground" advice will have a great time. But unfortunately many have already fallen in love on-line because they just couldn't wait 2 years for in-person dating. SADLY they are LOCKED into love before they step one foot on PI soil. They have also probably sent a ton of peso's to the love of their life over the past 2 years. So they better be the FIRST guy over here or one of the other 5 guys she was chatting with will show up first and steal her heart.
Thanks for the information. Like you said Dumaguete has trouble with trikes and gets busy. It would be easier not as busy up your way . San Carlos city or another clean city . I see your there the women are starting to come out. Thanks for all your videos
Hey, Calvin! How're you doing, Brother? ...First time commenting here on your good channel, but don't forget to pass up Swirls Ice Cream Parlor on San Jose Street, there in Duma!
so true with air bnb. ive found hotels under 2000 pesos a night are very hit and miss. ive found you can generally get a good air bnb studio for around 1500 pesos a night. thanks for the vlog flying out end of the month and Dumaguete is on my bucket list.
Thanks for the eye candy tour of the Boulevard - more soothing than these eye drops I am going to use after this video 😍 What? No shout out for the Dumaguete Disciples under the "gripe" category 🤣🤣🤣
Women are beautiful all over the Philippines not just there,I have a wife and house on negros island.Ive heard good and bad things about Dumaguate.Ive only passed thru it on my way to Cebu.
I rode one of those hot, unairconditioned buses with the hard suspension on a one hour trip in Luzon. Dusty hot and hard is a great description, Calvin. 😄
Totally respect your words, got a few questions though: Is the air quality good? I remember in summer in Taiwan if I wasn't careful, their sewerage systems where terrible. Each corner of streets could be a potential mouthful of Hep B... (No woman I ever had been in a relationship ever admitted this in Australia.... Amazing difference...) What is the cost of a bottle of water? Which brand is good? Am I ok to walk down near beach in some shorts only? What is the best and most reliable food there? Lol, I could go on but would love to hear what you/commenters, their advice.
Only been to Manila and Davao and saw lots of fine women in Davao.. maybe Dumaguete is better?. My first 30 minutes in Davao I saw one girl with a foreigner that was probably one of the finest Females I've ever seen, she also had a sister behind! Never seen another Filipina like her. As you know most of them are flat in the rear .lol. even here in LA she would have turned heads.
And don't forget the nearby Siquijor Island ... renowned for its gypsies with the gold-capped tooth. Might give you Love Potion #9. Read the lyrics LOVE POTION #9 sung by the Searchers.
Siquijor is the 3rd smallest province in the Philippines and the smallest province in the region😋 The 3rd smallest island in the Phils is just a few square meters
Good Evening....Mr. Calvin.....Many Tricycles Drivers want Special Rides only....not like before....pick up people just to make money....they know that Special Rides are more money...
My town's ( Iligan City ) food specialties are: lechon (done by Cebuano cooks), skewered barbeques ( my wife actually knows a better recipe), and peanuts. I think they cook the peanuts using heated sand.
A beautiful walk about in Dumaguete wow! U making hard for a lot of guys not to fall in love with the women there based on description😌 along with the country of the Philippines lol!!
Don't make no since that they're looking for a bigger fare. Your American! Come on Sunshine! Who knows maybe city requires they only pick up in designated areas or something like that. Who knows!! Thanks for the videos, take care!
So glad you got your visa squared away. Yes very pretty day to be out & about thanks for showing us. Speaking of gangster, Another future expat mentioned to me he saw a video on YT where it told of a Philippine crip gang group in your area & your name was linked to it. Please tell me he heard something wrong about that. As many of your videos as I've watched you sure don't strike me as a gang member type?
@@calroach1 I will ask to see if he remembers the YT channel name he saw the video on. I thought it sounded crazy to me, That's why I said I was hoping he'd heard wrong.
@@calroach1 Here's a screenshot from the 00:54 video posted by "cool lit ex" I don't know why but he's got a lot of videos on you & Every Man Has a story.

Thank you very much Calvin Dumagutet is my pick for my first time coming to the Philippines. Beautiful
Beautiful Philippines. Thanks for sharing this video friend.
My city....with rural and urban feels to it... If you come to the Philippines, it's hard to not fall in love with the Filipinas. Haha

Dumaguete... It looks beautiful, but worth a visit.. But I have been told too many expats.. I stayed in CDO, Siargao and Makati.. Be safe my friend..
Fun fact: Dumaguete has also a branch of the Central Bank of the Philippines ( Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas) its a white gated and guarded fenced building along the National Highway. They distribute and process Philippine peso currency and oversee the entire banking system of the country.
Ya Calvin , love d boulevard very relaxing . I have been der only once way back 1997 ,after my trip to Bacolod . Would b glad to visit again ASAP. From d video , alot of changes unlike b4. Enjoy ur trip der Calvin . Cheers♥️🙏

DumagueteCity is my 2nd home. Why I like Dumaguete coz its not a lot of people not busy like Cebu
Very nice video tour man. Looks very relaxing and eye popping at the same time if you know what I mean. (White shorts) lol Why were those guys riding on the outside of the truck cab @17:28 though haha
Ya Calvin , Philippines nice place to relax esp d provincial or out of City . I mean out of Manila . Beautiful beaches too
Good morning Calvin... your my morning wake up
Love the video. I've been to Dumaguete quite a few times. The boardwalk is really looking great. Used to eat at a place called Moon Cafe near Silliman campus. Did you say the Balikbayan visa is no longer good for one year? I need to find out. Hope to be over there soon. Thanks and good luck😀
The Balikbayan visa is still good for 36 months with the first year free and no visa fees
Wow the view of that area is beautiful take care there Calvin.
Hey I'm a musician. Are there music stores in Dumaguete where I can find a left handed bass guitar and amp?
Good question I'm not sure about Dumaguete but Cebu City and Manila can accommodate you. Thanks.

Do you know if the 'Why Not' bar is owned by a Scottish gentleman? There was a 'Why Not' Bar in Tamarindo, Costa Rica when I visited back in '02.
Not sure
Yep you right about they music

Wow the famous boulevard of Dumaguete.
What is that bakery, good thing, you bought? Looks good 👍

You're right. I was shocked it wasn't like that here before. Tricycle drivers are really nice in San Carlos City.
What exactly is a “special ride” I’m curious
Looks very good from here

Great video Brother Calvin sure doesn’t look like anyone starving in the Philippines a lot of thickness walking around there lol.
A beautiful walk about in Dumaguete wow! U making hard for a lot of guys not to fall in love with the women there based on description😌 along with the country of the Philippines lol!!
How far away is Heidi's ?
It's about 5 minutes away from the boulevard thanks
More walking tours!
Seen @ 5:55 am Minnesota.
Don't make no since that they're looking for a bigger fare. Your American! Come on Sunshine!
Who knows maybe city requires they only pick up in designated areas or something like that. Who knows!! Thanks for the videos, take care!
Wow, you ran into Patrick Chekam. His wife is pretty. Small world.
Wow
Enjoy your day 😊

a shame about how those developers are trying to turn the boulevard into some ugly series of condo towers. hope that doesn't happen
