@Kosty19 ? Who cares ? If you're worrying about people talking about you, lock yourself in your house and don't leave , and yes, I understand the language very well. Do you believe you're not being talked about where you live right now? If you're that paranoid, do not travel.
When I was growing up in Norway, a big part of the education from both family and the school was to learn not to throw garbage in the streets, and especially NOT in nature. The whole school would at times be ordered class by class to walk along the roads in the area and collect any garbage. We were also thoroughly instructed how to behave in traffick. Walk on the left side of the road, so you can see what is coming. Use reflective items and wear white clothes if possible during dark nights when walking. Stretch out your hand, look both right and left, and any car or motorbike MUST stop for you if that is at a zebra crossing. Failure to stop for crossing people means a large fine and some nasty comments on ur drivers lisence. I have lived more than 8 years in the Philippines, and driving around both in Cebu and in Mindanao. People are dressed in black clothes, virtually invisible to drivers. Some oncoming cars will put on blinding extra lights, so you can not really see anything in front of you and if they park, they have never understood the point of a parking light, so all their lights will blind oncoming drivers, putting everybody in danger. The garbage is tossed everywhere as the kids have a snack: They will just drop the plastic right there on the spot. And there is not really a garbage collecting system in place, neither are there public garbage bins. I know that one of the reasons for that, is that thieves steal those garbage bins. But if you make them in Plastic or Fibre Glass in stead of metal , those thieves might not be so interested in removing them I suggest that these issues become a larger part of the curriculum in the School system, and also paid TV adds to instruct the population to be aware of keeping the country clean, and to behave in a good manner on and along the roads. When they ban plastic bags, I say: The plastic bags do not find their way by themselves into the rivers, lakes and the ocean. The PEOPLE must be instructed how to behave.
I’ve been to 25 countries and what I find is people are pretty much the same anywhere you go. How you get along with the locals depends on what kind of vibe you’re putting off towards those locals. Be respectful, patient and no matter what ALWAYS speak calmly.
I've been here in Cebu City a couple of months now and I'm starting to decipher the honk patter... Two quick honks = "I'm here". Which there's normally a reply back with quick honks saying back "I see you". Three quick honks = I'm here and moving fast. Don't come out in front of me. Sometimes there's a reply back with a quick honk saying "I see you". Longer honks = "Get out of the way before I run you over" Love your content girl. Really appreciate your hard work.
I rarely watch a full video but listening to you is fun because you are very charming. Your delivery is natural. Its like I’m sitting with you just enjoying an interesting conversation. Keep it up. I wish you much success ❤
As a black american passport bro, I have NEVER experienced hostility from a Filipino or a Filipino American for being a passport bro. Respect has always been mutual
How long do you think the Filipino people will accommodate the Passport Bros? I think this is going to follow a very familiar pattern that places like Colombia and the Dominican Republic have experienced. The initial travelers are delightful but the people that follow ruin it.
@@mcluvin65 I think that Filipino people will accept it for maybe 113 more days sometime in the morning before noon. Maybe 114 more days. I could be wrong.
@@mcluvin65 It will last until they became overrun with "wealth" foreigners. We tend to drive up prices, reduce supplies and bring our bad habits with us. This can slowly breed resentment towards the foreigner. It's the same everywhere. It's just a matter of time. Maybe this is why living in Thailand is so much more difficult than in the Philippines? The system in Thailand is much more restrictive.
I'm now living with my beautiful Filipino girlfriend on Panglao Island, and everyone has treated me with friendship, kindness and respect. I think for the most part the women that are interested in dating and potentially marrying a foreigner are pretty much off the local Philippines radar. I don't think that the majority of men resent this. Love is love!
Thanks for the video. Maybe gardens aren't common because seeds cost money and a lot of Filipinos don't eat them much. I do know some that have gardens in locations away from their homes.
Speaking of hair styles... I like how you brought your hair forward from the back, and swept your front hair forward. Nice look. Maybe others have done it, but this is the first time I've seen it like that.
in my experience in the Philippines, short honks are for safety. They want the motorcyclist or vehicle near them to know they are there and to be careful.
Yes I understand that. But there seems to be a protocol to it. I've noticed there was series of different styles. In my area of the US. One quick beeps means " get off your phone and pay attention" because the light has changed. One long blast means "GET OFF YOUR PHONE AND PAY ATTENTION!!!" 😄 I'll pay attention and see if I can sort it out myself on my visit.
We recycle plastic, glass , paper, and aluminum. All of those items can be made into new items. Plastics can be transformed into carpets or toys. Paper into insulation or toilet paper or drink carriers. Etc. It would also save you money in the long run. Here there are large garbage bins of different colors. Each color is for the different recyclables. The bins are distributed to different areas and we go to them and drop off each according to correct bin.
I think it was you that did an interview in another city with the mayor about cleaning up his city. That is a great start to the idea spreading nationwide. The idea of cities, proveniences, and barangays working to compete to be clean is a great way to empower the citizens in the effort. Wishing you more success.
Outstanding content and delivery, Rubeauti! Here in the USA I have also noticed a reluctance of some educated and affluent people when it comes to raising vegetables. Flowers, shrubberies, and their esthetics are sufficiently "cultured" to be acceptable topics at cocktail parties, but vegetables? Not so much. I had two parents who grew up in the Dust Bowl in Kansas; their families survived on subsistence-level gardening. As adults and perhaps as a reaction to their childhoods, neither would go anywhere near dirt, a vegetable garden, or even yard work if at all possible. Or maybe Philippine fruit trees that offer shade create too much shade for vegetable gardens? Of course, I don't know but hope to visit the Philippines soon for some answers, LOTS of answers ;)
Great answers to all the questions, you're very fair. But I must say my favorite parts are the pauses that come after you read the questions - those parts, when you're trying to figure out what you want to say. Watching the way you think. So charming, intelligent and refreshing. I hope you never edit out those natural parts of yourself. Your culture is fascinating. Thanks for letting us explore it with you.
Great Q and A Rubeauti, I always enjoy learning new things from a Filipina’s perspective. It’s impressive that you mix up your content as often as your look 😊 Thanks for sharing, there were some interesting questions to tackle.
Even jobs like pumping gas or checking groceries demand degrees over there. That is the Philippines way of keeping a big chunk of the population out of the job market and filling the coffers of the education industry. Once out of college the difference between a high school degree and a college degree in a white color job is about 3,000 pesos, less than $60.00 per month. A lot wind up doing 555 or endo contracts and making less than the minimum wage even with the degree. Five months working after paying 10K in requirements like background checks and medical checks, then they are laid off to prevent the company from having to pay benefits like SSS.
I really enjoy your sense of humor and it seems obvious you are a generally happy person. I lived in Bali for 2 years, was great and ready to travel elsewhere and Phils are next. Keep up your great work.😊
Thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoy my content and appreciate my sense of humor. I'm looking forward to exploring the Philippines and seeing what the country has to offer.😊
I truly feel sorry for the boys in the Philippines. I assume most births are at home and that contributes to waiting until around 7. The few I’ve known who who did not have it done at birth had very painful experience that took a long time to recover.
Where you you suggest a good place to live? Ive never been there. I like a place not too close to big city cause of traffic. Preferly cooler weather and relatebly affordable
I like the way you give of yourself in your videos, it's a nice mixture of valuable information, gentle good humor and really nice vibes. 😃 Also, I know the struggle of switching between languages, one moment it flows and then all of a sudden I forget a word mid sentence that I use all the time, and then I forget the same damn word in my own language too so I feel like an idiot. 🤣😂🤣😂
Hey pea should have videos on Tuesday and fridays and you should have videos on Mondays and Thursdays!!!! My two favorite content providers of the Philippines!!!!! Just saying!!!!!😜🤓😜
I wasn't aware of the 'preparing for manhood' and the responsibilities thereof that were part of the circumcision process and timing; an infant, circumcised at birth or soon after would not undergo this right of passage into manhood. What a strange shift in my attitude about pre-puberty circumcision--thank you!
Thank you so much for your insight and for helping me gain a better understanding of the circumcision process. I appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share it with me. 🤗
The best way to learn English is to speak it with a native speaker, don't get embarrassed, and be able to accept correcting. Talk with someone you're comfortable with, make mistakes and let them correct you to help you learn it better. They're not looking down on you because you don't speak it properly and make mistakes, they know it's not your 1st language. Even native speaker's don't speak English perfectly, as long as the other person understands what you're saying, it doesn't really matter HOW you say it. Me personally, I don't have a problem with LGBTQ people, as long as they're not trying to force their lifestyle and beliefs onto me, let them be who they choose to be. If they are trying to force it onto me, I can choose to walk away and ignore them. As far as the question about finding a Filipina to commit to a foreigner, ALL of the Filipina's around him are different, there's ONLY 1 common denominator, the foreigner is, he is the problem. What ever it is he is doing to try to attract one is WRONG. Don't expect them to throw themselves at your feet, they do respect themselves, you need to PROVE your intentions and EARN their trust 1st. Although, the question may have just been asked improperly, maybe he meant "... find a GOOD Filipina." In which case, I'd say you need to go to places that the type you are looking for would be. You go to a bar, all you will find are party girls, you go to church you find religious ones, you go to a store and see employees you find hard working and dedicated women. I've seen a few interviews with Filipino's and they were asked how they felt about foreigners coming there. They all pretty much said the same thing, they don't mind at all, as long as he makes the woman happy and takes care of her and it is the Filipina's choice who she is with, and 1 went so far to say he didn't care because the women foreigners are interested in are the ones Filipino's don't want.
The first time I went to Lopez Jeana, (Mindanao), my ex's brother followed us everywhere, but only smiled politely. He never spoke. One day, he said something to her, and she told me, "Jimmy knew English when he went to university, but that was six years ago. He hasn't spoken English since, and feels embarrassed... but wants to try to talk to you. I said, "tell Jimmy that I'm sure his English is way better than my Cebuano or my Tagalog, and I admire the fact that he knows more than one language, much less three or four" (they also had more regional dialects). Within 10 minutes, we were talking to each other like we knew each other for 20 years.
The tenth question about fruits and vegetables was odd. Everytime I've been in the Philippines almost every dish has fruit or vegetables in it. They even use sweet potatoes leaves in dishes. The wide list of fruits and vegetables grown in the Philippines is amazing. Almost every day someone is going to the yard to harvest something to prepare dishes. Fish is the most often used ingredient in the Filipino diet. Like every day. Pork is a luxury like beef. After fish is probably chicken
Nice Q and A video Rubeauti! Myself think most subjects discussed are cultural behaviors. Some can be seen as good, bad, or funny depending on the observer and situation. For example in regards to gardening, it’s considered a rewarding hobby in here. You prepare the soil, plant your seeds, water and protect your plants from pests, and then collect the fruits of your labor. There is a bond “Zen” like experience with Mother Earth that is very rewarding. Yet, many will cringe at the thought when they can go to market and buy a vegetable or fruit.
I love seeing you get flustered in your videos because it is the real you coming through. Today for example when you struggled with english and another video when a handsome foreigner was walking by you were interviewing a woman and you had to stop because of your reaction to the handsome guy.......BTW the guy was blind not to see your beautiful smile.
28 solid minutes of your lovely face in close-up, your musical gentle voice and your manneri-sms and expressions. It is just pure bliss for me and many of us poor fellows. But I'm not crushing on you, Rubi. Oh no, not at all, not me! 🙂 Thank you Rubi and be well Chef Paul
Everything I have read suggests a fairly large percentage of Filipinos are English speakers as well making it a second lingua franca. I mean I read one report that said more Filipinos speak English than there are citizens and residents in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, so that would be a not insignificant percentage of the population.
Hi Rub, I got here by watching "Tribe of men" vids I follow, it's an amazing surprise to hear how you express your thoughts, how you stand for your country culture in a gentle way, that you are not selling your homies as perfect (I respect honest people), that you don't care about video more than to really thinking you words about the subject and all of these in an attractive intelligent feminine woman... this is too much 😊 I'm not american, I got some issues with US's people naming themselves as the whole continent name where they only own 2/10 of it's extension erasing of american (continent habitants) people. Anyway, I love your way, your expression style (as you, English is not my born language) and your kindness against aggressive vids towards your people. Thanks a lot.
9:00 Generally willing to follow the employers guidelines, or feel like they have no choice but to follow the guidelines? You said it yourself a few minutes ago, employers are very picky about college degrees and there aren't enough good jobs to go around.
Thanks for answering my question about home vegetable gardening, maybe you misunderstood me about relationships content. I really appreciate your work you do. I enjoy your videos. Have a nice day.
Just a minor correction on language. The most widely spoken and understood language in the Philippines is Bisaya/Cebuano followed by Tagalog and then English. People from the north of the country always say that Tagalog is the first language of the country because it is their first language or common language. Of course it is the official language of the country but again this is because the seat of government in Manila is in the centre of the Tagalog language region of the country. As for pee that are in or beginning a relationship with someone in the Philippines, if you want to learn their language then find out what is the commonly spoken language in there part of the country usually Tagalog in the North and Bisaya in central and southern areas and learn that language. By learning these languages you will be learning the language that will allow you to communicate easily with your partner and her family but also the maximum number of people from the part of the country where they live.
Yes i get that 10 time a day, but most part that jyst them wanting you to look at them its the one who adc other wors to it. Like joe, spend your money and go home., Are to your wife." Bed words because she walking with you.
😎👍🇺🇲 Thanks for trying to answer my question. My apologies for not wording in a way that was easier to read. By the way. I don't find the horn beeping annoying. Just like the roosters, beautiful long hair and jeepnees. It's part of the culture.😁 As always. Have a wonderful day Ms Rubeauti. 🤟🤗 I will pay close attention to the horn beeping and see if I can determine what the deal is. I'll be there in about 2 weeks. Cheers my friend.👋
Bro, all 3rd world countries ... driving habits and "unspokened" and "rules of the road" signaling that facilitates safety and makes it easier to navigate the "small roads" " 2 lane roads"
@@red-hat-mike Yes I understand that. I simply wanted to know if there's anything distinction between the different types of honking. For instance. Does 3 beeps mean anything different than 2 longer blips?? Eventually I didn't write my question clear enough. I've got 9 motorcycles. I plan to ride there as well. I'd like to learn a little bit about their riding style.
I was just informed by the "World Zoom" channel that cities in the PH dump untreated sewage directly into the ocean. Do Filipinos consider where the sewage is discharged when deciding what beach to go to?
Up until the 1990s the same was true in the USA for many lakes and oceanfront cities. That is when the state's finally started requiring Advanced Wastewater Treatment. It costs a tremendous amount of money to build those plants. Doing this is really bad for the Philippines.
This is a great video by the way. I think I can answer some of your questions. Some of the people living in the province are living on leased land and they don't have permission to have the gardens. A kilo of rice can feed more than a kilo of banana. Everyone knows rice is life in the Philippines. Not saying that I'm a bad way. It's. Just a fact of life. Also I believe pork is cheaper than chicken. So if there is a choice of protein. Then pork will be it. Forgeiners don't get that even 20 pesos is a lot to some Filipino. I can see why some think we are rich. I used to think that about Japanese people because of how expensive it is there. But they are on the struggle like all of us.
Okay this is about the calling of passport bros. I'm an American Caucasian "white". The stigma of a passport bro has started from the African American women here in the states. We are just men that are tired of the bull mess that we have been dealing with from the women here in the U.S. I'm married to a Filipina and I don't consider myself as a passport bro, I apologize if this comes off strong but that is stigmatizing all of us that are leaving to come to other countries to find a traditional lady that will treat us like we will treat them. King and Queen.
I also expirenced its hard to find someone to connect to. Most ones I have met shy away. Ask about money then I shy away. Also several have kids after a couple of dates I learn about it and I am not interested in other mans kids.
Most of these questions seem like they are from Americans looking for something to be offended about. Those people get offended if they can't find something to offend them. Hopefully the Philippines never adopts the woke culture.
I'm offended that you won't offend me in the way I wish to be offended.🤬 I shall make a protest sign to state my lack of a specific offence. I shall go out and scream at the sky until I feel properly offended. 🤣 You're most correct. My question was out of curiosity and wanting to be able to fit in with the locals during my stay. I wasn't annoyed at all. If you're in the Philippines and don't hear horn beeping and a rooster off in the distance. You may need to have your ears checked. 😄
That question about what Filipino men think about foreigners taking their women..... I've seen other channels that say Filipino beauty standards have a lot to do with it. Filipino men prefer chubbier whiter women, and foreigners prefer thinner, tanned women -- so they are not fishing in the same pond! The Filipino women westerners tend to go for, often consider themselves ugly, because of local beauty standards.
I understand his question. Why don't they Commit. It's seems to me like about two years then they will move on. I have been looking for someone for almost two years. I just want one woman to take care of. To build a future together! But yes to me it seems they don't want long term. Can you explain this please... Mark...
Frank's question about the honking horns has merit. As a retired truck driver, the 1st thing I wanted to learn here were the rules of the road. I drive with windows slightly down on both sides of the car to that I can hear traffic. Bikes will "beep" to let you know that they are in your blind spot and can't be seen in the mirrors. If driving a car, bikes will be passing on both sides of you, people often stop on the right side blocking the flow of bikes and trikes on the right. They will beep and merge into the path of cars often without looking for a clear opening. (Be very careful of the guys moving from the right shoulder, 9 times out of 10, they moved because of a blocked path, so prepare to use your brakes quickly. For those passing on the left (much like lane splitting in California) they ride on or even across the dotted line. Rarely will they ride next to you (usually just in front, or just behind) they will beep when they are going to be next to you, especially if there is a gap that gives you a opportunity to also pass. If I'm traveling to the farm and away from town, I will move over as far as needed so that they can safely pass. This is usually when I get 2-3 beeps. They are saying thank you. If you are pulling up from a cross street, people will beep to let you know that they are going through without stopping. Just letting you know that they are there. Big trucks and busses always honk 2-3 times if you give them some room. Also, once a truck or bus has passed me, I beep twice to let them know that it's safe to come back over. It's a lot different than the states, but for the most part it's organized chaos..😂 😂 you don't see road rage, and people just allow that some people might be in a big hurry 🤷♂️. My 1st 3 weeks here, I hired drivers and asked lots of questions. Now I actually feel confident and comfortable driving here. Just be kind to pedestrians and if traffic is really heavy, let people turn if there is a gap. You will catch up to the people in front of you. So be polite and the people will wave and say thanks 👍 if you have good safe road manners. Honking and beeping are necessary for safety. I almost forgot, when we go to the farm, and can't see around a curve, we always beep, and so do the bikes. It's to avoid a head-on collision. Drive safely and explore paradise 😊
Also your the first blogger who i can actually contact on TH-cam, they all use the Gmail. By the way what do you feel about the military heading back to your country?
Something is wrong in today's world, cuz, some countries produce too much veg and fruits, while in many countries it's too expensive to buy fruits. Countries like Philippines, South Korea and Japan should allow importation of cheap food and fruits
Maybe it's just hard to grow fruits and vegetables there. It looks like everything grows so fast that it's probably difficult to keep up with weeds and all the things that will attack your crops. Or per the translator used for Tagalog: Mahirap lang siguro magtanim ng mga prutas at gulay doon. Mukhang napakabilis ng paglaki ng lahat na malamang na mahirap makipagsabayan sa mga damo at lahat ng bagay na aatake sa iyong mga pananim.
I appreciate you, Rubeauti! I watch every episode. But I want to point out that like everyone else, you are a product of your own culture, including having absorbed some of its prejudices. For example, you say that sometimes transgenders won't work in certain professions like engineering because the employer is conservative and will require dress codes the potential employee could not meet, but that this is not a problem. I challenge you to reconsider your opinion that this just "is what it is", and there is no issue because Filipinos are understanding people who have respect for the company. The company is obligated to have respect for its employees too. In my opinion, this is another example of how it is easy for the powerful to take advantage of the weak in Fiipino culture because of the tremendous emphasis on respect for authority. But respect should go both ways. 😘
@@Rubeauti Hi Rubeauti! Respectfully, lovingly, I suggest to you that because of your cultural priority on not causing conflict, you are missing something important here. I am not saying I know everything about your culture, but I do have about 35 years of experience in that culture. I know that your description is true. But honestly, I don't think this is a case where an outsider does not have a right to comment. This is about human rights, and all humans have a right to comment. I don't want my comment to be arrogant, but to stand up for the human rights of people who trained hard but are denied their chosen profession because they are transgender. My friend, I do not expect you to transform your culture overnight, but as an important cultural influencer, it is my respectful opinion that you have an obligation to nudge the culture toward increased fairness, not accept bigotry. There is no true peace without justice, and after all, even tho you say no one wants to try to impose their view on others, employers who refuse hire transgenders are imposing their view in an extremely destructive way on people who have a contribution to make to their company and their country. I realize you aren't likely to change your mind because of a few of my words, but I hope you understand I am not attacking you or your ulture-just trying to do my small part to nudge the whole world toward greater fairness and justice.
There are few Filipino women merely aiming for a fun time. Some will provide unique services overseas which I don't condone. If you dab in the more negative side be prepared for any consequences that may follow. Younger men are identified looking for fun having to prove yourself. Most Filipino women are looking to establish a stable marriage eventually. Most of the women are reasonably easy to approach so its hard to pin point why Mario is having trouble there. It could be how a person approaches and presents themselves to women. Most women overseas like men who don't seem desperate or arrogant. Relationships overseas involves more time to develop never rushing to achieve love. Always respect the locals and their culture while overseas. Maybe work on yourself finding your groove. Attraction is inevitably a persons own preference in life. I am not putting the blame on anyone. I genuinely like people to achieve their happiness with no regrets where ever they live.
Good Video young Lady, You answered the questions on Point. Also not much has changed in your cultural views & ways unlike the west. I hope one day that my wife & I can have an interview by either you, Pea, The Black Filipino (Jay), Sharon lapu lapu etc. We have a interesting story. We're going on 34 years of marriage and still going strong.
Hay Naku your not nose bleed english diba? Your the best information source of Filipino's on TH-cam. Just keep being you. Soon you will be 100,000 subs in not time.
Needing a degree is similar in the US. Most Americans assume a degree is required for many jobs, but that's not exactly true. It's just like in PH, if an employer gets a lot of applications they can be picky. Only those with a degree. If still too many they can sort by GPA or by different schools. A software degree from MIT or Stanford is not the same as one from University of Phoenix. I was a software engineer and we'd certainly hire someone who was self taught if they demonstrated work in the area we needed. Once we even took in anyone who wanted to try. We gave them a few days of training and see how they did. This college degree thing is kind of scam businesses push. It moves training from their cost to the employee's cost.
Thanks Rubeauti for the interesting discussion and focused on the local filopino community! Within many communities around the world you'll find a morality decline which aren't directly linked to poverty ? The world is saturated with many people displaying so called "bad habits" or "behaviors" and it's unfair to call out and only put the spotlight on the Philippines ? I understand that you were only trying to provide possible answers pertaining to the relevant questions! One cannot compare third world development country with first world and a super global economic leader like America with the Philippines? There's nothing wrong with legal migration to other countries in search of greener grass and possible better opportunities! Migration is as old as Mother Earth? It's all about survival! In America eg. and elsewhere, many households in trying to maintain their existing economic standards /status are forced to undertake more than one job and thereby put unhealthy pressure on family relationships that potentially can destroy the marriage? I think most married couples after a hard day's work prefer to come home expecting a warm reception and appreciation from their spouses and in the absence of this, might explore other ways of getting a particular need met, which is unfortunate? ( I'm speaking under correction? But don't crucify me if I'm wrong? ) The filopino women ( or any other women) has become a potential threath where there's a likely breakdown of this nature between the spouses! So my suggestion to the wife is that, if you don't want your man to run after other women, give him the necessary attention and care that you want for yourself! By the way I have also observed the numerous talents and gifted potential especially in music arena of which many have been succesfully been exported to other countries in particular America! Eg. The legacy of America's Country music has been kept alive successfully through very talented singers and musicians in the Philippines for which they receive my loud applause! (I apologize for the long text message. )
I have one question. In mid april i will visit the Philippines and fly via Manila to Dumaguete. Is it still compulsory to wear a mask? And if so where? Can you answer that for me?
member! Thank you! 🙏 I'm honored to be part of a Filipino family. It's true that Filipinas are known to have old fashioned values and I'm proud to be part of that. 🇵🇭
17 years of visits, 9 years of living full time here.. I find most of the Filipino men are GREAT and GOOD. Even out in the province. As long as you know the limits. IF you are bastos.. you better expect a different experience. IF you have any issues with a Filipino, it is likely your fault.
I am a black retired expat in the phillippines, they show me respect 🙏 I never saw anything less . They are nice people and love the country

When I was growing up in Norway, a big part of the education from both family and the school was to learn not to throw garbage in the streets, and especially NOT in nature. The whole school would at times be ordered class by class to walk along the roads in the area and collect any garbage. We were also thoroughly instructed how to behave in traffick.

Some oncoming cars will put on blinding extra lights, so you can not really see anything in front of you and if they park, they have never understood the point of a parking light, so all their lights will blind oncoming drivers, putting everybody in danger.

When they ban plastic bags, I say: The plastic bags do not find their way by themselves into the rivers, lakes and the ocean. The PEOPLE must be instructed how to behave.
I’ve been to 25 countries and what I find is people are pretty much the same anywhere you go. How you get along with the locals depends on what kind of vibe you’re putting off towards those locals. Be respectful, patient and no matter what ALWAYS speak calmly.

I rarely watch a full video but listening to you is fun because you are very charming. Your delivery is natural. Its like I’m sitting with you just enjoying an interesting conversation. Keep it up. I wish you much success ❤
As a black american passport bro, I have NEVER experienced hostility from a Filipino or a Filipino American for being a passport bro. Respect has always been mutual
I have had the same experience. I agree.
I think it's all in western women jealously that cause a lot of this crap we see on ytube
How long do you think the Filipino people will accommodate the Passport Bros? I think this is going to follow a very familiar pattern that places like Colombia and the Dominican Republic have experienced. The initial travelers are delightful but the people that follow ruin it.
@@mcluvin65 I think that Filipino people will accept it for maybe 113 more days sometime in the morning before noon. Maybe 114 more days. I could be wrong.

It will last until they became overrun with "wealth" foreigners.
We tend to drive up prices, reduce supplies and bring our bad habits with us.
This can slowly breed resentment towards the foreigner.
It's the same everywhere.
It's just a matter of time.
Maybe this is why living in Thailand is so much more difficult than in the Philippines?
The system in Thailand is much more restrictive.
My neigbor is a rabbi and he never charges for circumcisions. He just keeps the tips...
Oof!
Damn that’s a good joke
I'm now living with my beautiful Filipino girlfriend on Panglao Island, and everyone has treated me with friendship, kindness and respect. I think for the most part the women that are interested in dating and potentially marrying a foreigner are pretty much off the local Philippines radar. I don't think that the majority of men resent this. Love is love!
Usually pillaging involves violating people in a degrading way and also implies violating women in a devilish way.
Please don't pillage the beautiful Filipina women they should be treated gently and lovingly as they do you.
Hello Rebeauti, YOU should do it more this kind of content! Questions and answers can tell us so much more about the Philipines!
Thanks for the video.
Maybe gardens aren't common because seeds cost money and a lot of Filipinos don't eat them much. I do know some that have gardens in locations away from their homes.
Speaking of hair styles... I like how you brought your hair forward from the back, and swept your front hair forward.
Nice look. Maybe others have done it, but this is the first time I've seen it like that.
in my experience in the Philippines, short honks are for safety. They want the motorcyclist or vehicle near them to know they are there and to be careful.
Yes I understand that.
But there seems to be a protocol to it.
I've noticed there was series of different styles.
In my area of the US.
One quick beeps means " get off your phone and pay attention" because the light has changed.
One long blast means "GET OFF YOUR PHONE AND PAY ATTENTION!!!" 😄
I'll pay attention and see if I can sort it out myself on my visit.
We recycle plastic, glass , paper, and aluminum. All of those items can be made into new items. Plastics can be transformed into carpets or toys. Paper into insulation or toilet paper or drink carriers. Etc. It would also save you money in the long run. Here there are large garbage bins of different colors. Each color is for the different recyclables. The bins are distributed to different areas and we go to them and drop off each according to correct bin.
I think it was you that did an interview in another city with the mayor about cleaning up his city. That is a great start to the idea spreading nationwide. The idea of cities, proveniences, and barangays working to compete to be clean is a great way to empower the citizens in the effort. Wishing you more success.
Outstanding content and delivery, Rubeauti! Here in the USA I have also noticed a reluctance of some educated and affluent people when it comes to raising vegetables. Flowers, shrubberies, and their esthetics are sufficiently "cultured" to be acceptable topics at cocktail parties, but vegetables? Not so much. I had two parents who grew up in the Dust Bowl in Kansas; their families survived on subsistence-level gardening. As adults and perhaps as a reaction to their childhoods, neither would go anywhere near dirt, a vegetable garden, or even yard work if at all possible. Or maybe Philippine fruit trees that offer shade create too much shade for vegetable gardens? Of course, I don't know but hope to visit the Philippines soon for some answers, LOTS of answers ;)
I love your sincerity. You are a real woman not putting on a show. I love your channel. Come live with me in the states.
I think it's easier to commit once you meet in person. That way they can see if you're serious or just playing.
Great answers to all the questions, you're very fair. But I must say my favorite parts are the pauses that come after you read the questions - those parts, when you're trying to figure out what you want to say. Watching the way you think. So charming, intelligent and refreshing. I hope you never edit out those natural parts of yourself. Your culture is fascinating. Thanks for letting us explore it with you.
Whoa! The lights are sweet. You could video at higher resolution becuz your features and tones are exquisite.
Great Q and A Rubeauti, I always enjoy learning new things from a Filipina’s perspective. It’s impressive that you mix up your content as often as your look 😊 Thanks for sharing, there were some interesting questions to tackle.
Even jobs like pumping gas or checking groceries demand degrees over there. That is the Philippines way of keeping a big chunk of the population out of the job market and filling the coffers of the education industry. Once out of college the difference between a high school degree and a college degree in a white color job is about 3,000 pesos, less than $60.00 per month. A lot wind up doing 555 or endo contracts and making less than the minimum wage even with the degree. Five months working after paying 10K in requirements like background checks and medical checks, then they are laid off to prevent the company from having to pay benefits like SSS.
Gosh. Your soulmate is going to be so blessed. You R so beautiful! I wish saying that carried weight with you. When you laugh and smile is a treasure.
She really is beautiful and I've always loved the Filipinos. Good hearted and God fearing people.
I really enjoy your sense of humor and it seems obvious you are a generally happy person.
I lived in Bali for 2 years, was great and ready to travel elsewhere and Phils are next. Keep up your great work.😊
Thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoy my content and appreciate my sense of humor. I'm looking forward to exploring the Philippines and seeing what the country has to offer.😊
Hey you got a thanks button! Thanks!
I appreciate your information about locations in PI to retire. Also you provide cultural info. that I've not seen from other youtubers.
I truly feel sorry for the boys in the Philippines. I assume most births are at home and that contributes to waiting until around 7. The few I’ve known who who did not have it done at birth had very painful experience that took a long time to recover.
Good answers to the questions. You are beautiful and i enjoy listening to you speak. ❤
Where you you suggest a good place to live?
Ive never been there.
I like a place not too close to big city cause of traffic.
Preferly cooler weather and relatebly affordable
I like the way you give of yourself in your videos, it's a nice mixture of valuable information, gentle good humor and really nice vibes. 😃 Also, I know the struggle of switching between languages, one moment it flows and then all of a sudden I forget a word mid sentence that I use all the time, and then I forget the same damn word in my own language too so I feel like an idiot. 🤣😂🤣😂
No matter the topic…I always learn new things…. Very nice to see you , of course ! 😊🇵🇭👍🏻
Hey pea should have videos on Tuesday and fridays and you should have videos on Mondays and Thursdays!!!! My two favorite content providers of the Philippines!!!!! Just saying!!!!!😜🤓😜
I know right! I'll watch other content once in a while, but these are the two that i look forward to watching every time.
How about parts 2, 3, & 4. Keep giving answers to viewer questions. I like your style & find your videos useful and entertaining.
I wasn't aware of the 'preparing for manhood' and the responsibilities thereof that were part of the circumcision process and timing; an infant, circumcised at birth or soon after would not undergo this right of passage into manhood. What a strange shift in my attitude about pre-puberty circumcision--thank you!
Thank you so much for your insight and for helping me gain a better understanding of the circumcision process. I appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share it with me. 🤗
The best way to learn English is to speak it with a native speaker, don't get embarrassed, and be able to accept correcting. Talk with someone you're comfortable with, make mistakes and let them correct you to help you learn it better. They're not looking down on you because you don't speak it properly and make mistakes, they know it's not your 1st language. Even native speaker's don't speak English perfectly, as long as the other person understands what you're saying, it doesn't really matter HOW you say it. Me personally, I don't have a problem with LGBTQ people, as long as they're not trying to force their lifestyle and beliefs onto me, let them be who they choose to be. If they are trying to force it onto me, I can choose to walk away and ignore them.
As far as the question about finding a Filipina to commit to a foreigner, ALL of the Filipina's around him are different, there's ONLY 1 common denominator, the foreigner is, he is the problem. What ever it is he is doing to try to attract one is WRONG. Don't expect them to throw themselves at your feet, they do respect themselves, you need to PROVE your intentions and EARN their trust 1st. Although, the question may have just been asked improperly, maybe he meant "... find a GOOD Filipina." In which case, I'd say you need to go to places that the type you are looking for would be. You go to a bar, all you will find are party girls, you go to church you find religious ones, you go to a store and see employees you find hard working and dedicated women.
I've seen a few interviews with Filipino's and they were asked how they felt about foreigners coming there. They all pretty much said the same thing, they don't mind at all, as long as he makes the woman happy and takes care of her and it is the Filipina's choice who she is with, and 1 went so far to say he didn't care because the women foreigners are interested in are the ones Filipino's don't want.
The first time I went to Lopez Jeana, (Mindanao), my ex's brother followed us everywhere, but only smiled politely. He never spoke.
One day, he said something to her, and she told me, "Jimmy knew English when he went to university, but that was six years ago. He hasn't spoken English since, and feels embarrassed... but wants to try to talk to you.
I said, "tell Jimmy that I'm sure his English is way better than my Cebuano or my Tagalog, and I admire the fact that he knows more than one language, much less three or four" (they also had more regional dialects).
Within 10 minutes, we were talking to each other like we knew each other for 20 years.
The tenth question about fruits and vegetables was odd. Everytime I've been in the Philippines almost every dish has fruit or vegetables in it. They even use sweet potatoes leaves in dishes. The wide list of fruits and vegetables grown in the Philippines is amazing. Almost every day someone is going to the yard to harvest something to prepare dishes. Fish is the most often used ingredient in the Filipino diet. Like every day. Pork is a luxury like beef. After fish is probably chicken
Time to get off the couch!!!
Nice Q and A video Rubeauti! Myself think most subjects discussed are cultural behaviors. Some can be seen as good, bad, or funny depending on the observer and situation. For example in regards to gardening, it’s considered a rewarding hobby in here. You prepare the soil, plant your seeds, water and protect your plants from pests, and then collect the fruits of your labor. There is a bond “Zen” like experience with Mother Earth that is very rewarding. Yet, many will cringe at the thought when they can go to market and buy a vegetable or fruit.
I love seeing you get flustered in your videos because it is the real you coming through. Today for example when you struggled with english and another video when a handsome foreigner was walking by you were interviewing a woman and you had to stop because of your reaction to the handsome guy.......BTW the guy was blind not to see your beautiful smile.
Thank you. Trying to learn all I can before visiting
28 solid minutes of your lovely face in close-up, your musical gentle voice and your manneri-sms and expressions. It is just pure bliss for me and many of us poor fellows. But I'm not crushing on you, Rubi. Oh no, not at all, not me! 🙂
Thank you Rubi and be well
Chef Paul
Everything I have read suggests a fairly large percentage of Filipinos are English speakers as well making it a second lingua franca. I mean I read one report that said more Filipinos speak English than there are citizens and residents in Great Britain and Northern Ireland, so that would be a not insignificant percentage of the population.
Yes, you can't help who you fall in love with.
Your English is Very good, and you have an amazing discernment in analyzing the questions 🙏
🏻 Thank you for the compliments! It's been a pleasure to help you.
I appreciate the Q & A session being moderated by a beautiful Woman.
Your "So-Very Sweet and Charming" ❤😊
Hi Rub, I got here by watching "Tribe of men" vids I follow, it's an amazing surprise to hear how you express your thoughts, how you stand for your country culture in a gentle way, that you are not selling your homies as perfect (I respect honest people), that you don't care about video more than to really thinking you words about the subject and all of these in an attractive intelligent feminine woman... this is too much 😊
I'm not american, I got some issues with US's people naming themselves as the whole continent name where they only own 2/10 of it's extension erasing of american (continent habitants) people.
Anyway, I love your way, your expression style (as you, English is not my born language) and your kindness against aggressive vids towards your people. Thanks a lot.
9:00 Generally willing to follow the employers guidelines, or feel like they have no choice but to follow the guidelines? You said it yourself a few minutes ago, employers are very picky about college degrees and there aren't enough good jobs to go around.
Thanks for answering my question about home vegetable gardening, maybe you misunderstood me about relationships content. I really appreciate your work you do. I enjoy your videos. Have a nice day.
Just a minor correction on language. The most widely spoken and understood language in the Philippines is Bisaya/Cebuano followed by Tagalog and then English. People from the north of the country always say that Tagalog is the first language of the country because it is their first language or common language. Of course it is the official language of the country but again this is because the seat of government in Manila is in the centre of the Tagalog language region of the country. As for pee that are in or beginning a relationship with someone in the Philippines, if you want to learn their language then find out what is the commonly spoken language in there part of the country usually Tagalog in the North and Bisaya in central and southern areas and learn that language. By learning these languages you will be learning the language that will allow you to communicate easily with your partner and her family but also the maximum number of people from the part of the country where they live.
About the most hostility I have experienced when out with my Filipina is some guy yelling "Hey Joe!" at me...
Yes i get that 10 time a day, but most part that jyst them wanting you to look at them its the one who adc other wors to it. Like joe, spend your money and go home., Are to your wife." Bed words because she walking with you.
hello watching from dumaguete city
thanks for all the information
Love the long q&a video. Thank you
In province most people do have vegetable gardens from what I've seen. Of course that could be bcuz no stores are near them.
@@Rubeauti No, don't say they're lazy.
😎👍🇺🇲
Thanks for trying to answer my question.
My apologies for not wording in a way that was easier to read.
By the way. I don't find the horn beeping annoying. Just like the roosters, beautiful long hair and jeepnees. It's part of the culture.😁
As always. Have a wonderful day Ms Rubeauti.
🤟🤗
I will pay close attention to the horn beeping and see if I can determine what the deal is.
I'll be there in about 2 weeks.
Cheers my friend.👋
Bro, all 3rd world countries ... driving habits and "unspokened" and "rules of the road" signaling that facilitates safety and makes it easier to navigate the "small roads" " 2 lane roads"
@@red-hat-mike
Yes I understand that.
I simply wanted to know if there's anything distinction between the different types of honking.
For instance. Does 3 beeps mean anything different than 2 longer blips??
Eventually I didn't write my question clear enough.
I've got 9 motorcycles.
I plan to ride there as well.
I'd like to learn a little bit about their riding style.
Yes there's a signaling method with the horns. I will define in the open forum.
You are such a nice person - great rep for the PH!
I was just informed by the "World Zoom" channel that cities in the PH dump untreated sewage directly into the ocean. Do Filipinos consider where the sewage is discharged when deciding what beach to go to?
Up until the 1990s the same was true in the USA for many lakes and oceanfront cities. That is when the state's finally started requiring Advanced Wastewater Treatment. It costs a tremendous amount of money to build those plants. Doing this is really bad for the Philippines.
This is a great video by the way. I think I can answer some of your questions. Some of the people living in the province are living on leased land and they don't have permission to have the gardens. A kilo of rice can feed more than a kilo of banana. Everyone knows rice is life in the Philippines. Not saying that I'm a bad way. It's. Just a fact of life. Also I believe pork is cheaper than chicken. So if there is a choice of protein. Then pork will be it. Forgeiners don't get that even 20 pesos is a lot to some Filipino. I can see why some think we are rich. I used to think that about Japanese people because of how expensive it is there. But they are on the struggle like all of us.
Okay this is about the calling of passport bros. I'm an American Caucasian "white". The stigma of a passport bro has started from the African American women here in the states. We are just men that are tired of the bull mess that we have been dealing with from the women here in the U.S. I'm married to a Filipina and I don't consider myself as a passport bro, I apologize if this comes off strong but that is stigmatizing all of us that are leaving to come to other countries to find a traditional lady that will treat us like we will treat them. King and Queen.
I also expirenced its hard to find someone to connect to. Most ones I have met shy away. Ask about money then I shy away. Also several have kids after a couple of dates I learn about it and I am not interested in other mans kids.
Most of these questions seem like they are from Americans looking for something to be offended about. Those people get offended if they can't find something to offend them. Hopefully the Philippines never adopts the woke culture.
I'm offended that you won't offend me in the way I wish to be offended.🤬
I shall make a protest sign to state my lack of a specific offence. I shall go out and scream at the sky until I feel properly offended.
🤣
You're most correct.
My question was out of curiosity and wanting to be able to fit in with the locals during my stay.
I wasn't annoyed at all. If you're in the Philippines and don't hear horn beeping and a rooster off in the distance.
You may need to have your ears checked.
😄
@@franktaylor7617 Oh my comment wasn't directed at your question. It was the best of the lot.
@@jasonferguson5195
Yes I know.
I agree with your opinion.
I was just having fun.
Cheers mate ✌️
Really great questions and great honest intelligent answers thank you.
That question about what Filipino men think about foreigners taking their women.....
I've seen other channels that say Filipino beauty standards have a lot to do with it. Filipino men prefer chubbier whiter women, and foreigners prefer thinner, tanned women -- so they are not fishing in the same pond! The Filipino women westerners tend to go for, often consider themselves ugly, because of local beauty standards.
I understand his question. Why don't they Commit. It's seems to me like about two years then they will move on. I have been looking for someone for almost two years. I just want one woman to take care of. To build a future together! But yes to me it seems they don't want long term. Can you explain this please... Mark...
Frank's question about the honking horns has merit. As a retired truck driver, the 1st thing I wanted to learn here were the rules of the road.
I drive with windows slightly down on both sides of the car to that I can hear traffic. Bikes will "beep" to let you know that they are in your blind spot and can't be seen in the mirrors. If driving a car, bikes will be passing on both sides of you, people often stop on the right side blocking the flow of bikes and trikes on the right. They will beep and merge into the path of cars often without looking for a clear opening. (Be very careful of the guys moving from the right shoulder, 9 times out of 10, they moved because of a blocked path, so prepare to use your brakes quickly.
For those passing on the left (much like lane splitting in California) they ride on or even across the dotted line. Rarely will they ride next to you (usually just in front, or just behind) they will beep when they are going to be next to you, especially if there is a gap that gives you a opportunity to also pass.
If I'm traveling to the farm and away from town, I will move over as far as needed so that they can safely pass. This is usually when I get 2-3 beeps. They are saying thank you.
If you are pulling up from a cross street, people will beep to let you know that they are going through without stopping. Just letting you know that they are there. Big trucks and busses always honk 2-3 times if you give them some room. Also, once a truck or bus has passed me, I beep twice to let them know that it's safe to come back over.
It's a lot different than the states, but for the most part it's organized chaos..😂 😂 you don't see road rage, and people just allow that some people might be in a big hurry 🤷♂️.
My 1st 3 weeks here, I hired drivers and asked lots of questions. Now I actually feel confident and comfortable driving here.
Just be kind to pedestrians and if traffic is really heavy, let people turn if there is a gap. You will catch up to the people in front of you. So be polite and the people will wave and say thanks 👍 if you have good safe road manners.
Honking and beeping are necessary for safety.
I almost forgot, when we go to the farm, and can't see around a curve, we always beep, and so do the bikes. It's to avoid a head-on collision.
Drive safely and explore paradise 😊
@Rubeauti04 OK
You do an excellent job and you know it !
Also your the first blogger who i can actually contact on TH-cam, they all use the Gmail. By the way what do you feel about the military heading back to your country?
Something is wrong in today's world, cuz, some countries produce too much veg and fruits, while in many countries it's too expensive to buy fruits.
Countries like Philippines, South Korea and Japan should allow importation of cheap food and fruits
People there don't grow gardens because they don't have access to water daily. You can't grow a garden on rainfall.
Mahalo Nui Loa!
Great advice.
I love your show,God Bless
Maybe it's just hard to grow fruits and vegetables there. It looks like everything grows so fast that it's probably difficult to keep up with weeds and all the things that will attack your crops.
Or per the translator used for Tagalog: Mahirap lang siguro magtanim ng mga prutas at gulay doon. Mukhang napakabilis ng paglaki ng lahat na malamang na mahirap makipagsabayan sa mga damo at lahat ng bagay na aatake sa iyong mga pananim.
I appreciate you, Rubeauti! I watch every episode. But I want to point out that like everyone else, you are a product of your own culture, including having absorbed some of its prejudices. For example, you say that sometimes transgenders won't work in certain professions like engineering because the employer is conservative and will require dress codes the potential employee could not meet, but that this is not a problem. I challenge you to reconsider your opinion that this just "is what it is", and there is no issue because Filipinos are understanding people who have respect for the company. The company is obligated to have respect for its employees too. In my opinion, this is another example of how it is easy for the powerful to take advantage of the weak in Fiipino culture because of the tremendous emphasis on respect for authority. But respect should go both ways. 😘
@@Rubeauti Hi Rubeauti! Respectfully, lovingly, I suggest to you that because of your cultural priority on not causing conflict, you are missing something important here. I am not saying I know everything about your culture, but I do have about 35 years of experience in that culture. I know that your description is true. But honestly, I don't think this is a case where an outsider does not have a right to comment. This is about human rights, and all humans have a right to comment. I don't want my comment to be arrogant, but to stand up for the human rights of people who trained hard but are denied their chosen profession because they are transgender. My friend, I do not expect you to transform your culture overnight, but as an important cultural influencer, it is my respectful opinion that you have an obligation to nudge the culture toward increased fairness, not accept bigotry. There is no true peace without justice, and after all, even tho you say no one wants to try to impose their view on others, employers who refuse hire transgenders are imposing their view in an extremely destructive way on people who have a contribution to make to their company and their country. I realize you aren't likely to change your mind because of a few of my words, but I hope you understand I am not attacking you or your ulture-just trying to do my small part to nudge the whole world toward greater fairness and justice.
Good QnA rubeauti keep up the good content keep up the good content 😎💪🏾
Always enjoy your videos ❤, very informative
There are few Filipino women merely aiming for a fun time. Some will provide unique services overseas which I don't condone. If you dab in the more negative side be prepared for any consequences that may follow. Younger men are identified looking for fun having to prove yourself. Most Filipino women are looking to establish a stable marriage eventually. Most of the women are reasonably easy to approach so its hard to pin point why Mario is having trouble there. It could be how a person approaches and presents themselves to women. Most women overseas like men who don't seem desperate or arrogant. Relationships overseas involves more time to develop never rushing to achieve love. Always respect the locals and their culture while overseas. Maybe work on yourself finding your groove. Attraction is inevitably a persons own preference in life. I am not putting the blame on anyone. I genuinely like people to achieve their happiness with no regrets where ever they live.
THIS IS BRUNO!
I’M SO HONORED!
YOU ANSWERED MY QUESTION “AND” PUT ME AT NUMBER ONE.
😘😘😘😘😘
Good Video young Lady, You answered the questions on Point. Also not much has changed in your cultural views & ways unlike the west. I hope one day that my wife & I can have an interview by either you, Pea, The Black Filipino (Jay), Sharon lapu lapu etc. We have a interesting story. We're going on 34 years of marriage and still going strong.
Great video, I enjoyed. Good work.
Awesome video!
On that 10th question I always like beef and veggies 😊 it always seemed like a good 👍😊
Im gonna visit Cebu and surroundings
Beautiful as always 🌹great video and good information
Hay Naku your not nose bleed english diba? Your the best information source of Filipino's on TH-cam. Just keep being you. Soon you will be 100,000 subs in not time.
Needing a degree is similar in the US. Most Americans assume a degree is required for many jobs, but that's not exactly true. It's just like in PH, if an employer gets a lot of applications they can be picky. Only those with a degree. If still too many they can sort by GPA or by different schools. A software degree from MIT or Stanford is not the same as one from University of Phoenix. I was a software engineer and we'd certainly hire someone who was self taught if they demonstrated work in the area we needed. Once we even took in anyone who wanted to try. We gave them a few days of training and see how they did.
This college degree thing is kind of scam businesses push. It moves training from their cost to the employee's cost.
Good Video Rebeauti 😊. I will be moving to the Philippines 🇵🇭 this Summer ☀️ in June/July. Would like to meet you.
Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
Thanks Rubeauti for the interesting discussion and focused on the local filopino community!
Within many communities around the world you'll find a morality decline which aren't directly linked to poverty ? The world is saturated with many people displaying so called "bad habits" or "behaviors" and it's unfair to call out and only put the spotlight on the Philippines ?
I understand that you were only trying to provide possible answers pertaining to the relevant questions! One cannot compare third world development country with first world and a super global economic leader like America with the Philippines? There's nothing wrong with legal migration to other countries in search of greener grass and possible better opportunities!
Migration is as old as Mother Earth? It's all about survival!
In America eg. and elsewhere, many households in trying to maintain their existing economic standards /status are forced to undertake more than one job and thereby put unhealthy pressure on family relationships that potentially can destroy the marriage?
I think most married couples after a hard day's work prefer to come home expecting a warm
reception and appreciation from their spouses and in the absence of this, might explore other ways of getting a particular need met, which is unfortunate?
( I'm speaking under correction? But don't crucify me if I'm wrong? )
The filopino women ( or any other women) has become a potential threath where there's a likely breakdown of this nature between the spouses! So my suggestion to the wife is that, if you don't want your man to run after other women, give him the necessary attention and care that you want for yourself!
By the way I have also observed the numerous talents and gifted potential especially in music arena of which many have been succesfully been exported to other countries in particular America! Eg. The legacy of America's Country music has been kept alive successfully through very talented singers and musicians in the Philippines for which they receive my loud applause! (I apologize for the long text message. )
I have one question. In mid april i will visit the Philippines and fly via Manila to Dumaguete. Is it still compulsory to wear a mask? And if so where? Can you answer that for me?
You did a good job . thanks
Yep... lbgq++tyxp3 and cat people!!! You be you whatever it may be!!! No judgement here!!! Content of ones character is what matters most to me!!!
Great video RB! 😊💪🏻
your videos are always informative and transparent, salamat :-)
I like your honesty
what I would like to know rubeauti is, if you are involved with a foreigner, and if no, why not..??..
just rang your notification bell.
What a relaxing video.👌
Hey there! Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Hope it helped you to relax and chill out. Have a wonderful day!
What we love best about Filipinas is their old fashioned mannerisms. If you want a Filipina wife then you have a new Filipino familiy
member!
Thank you! 🙏 I'm honored to be part of a Filipino family. It's true that Filipinas are known to have old fashioned values and I'm proud to be part of that. 🇵🇭
17 years of visits, 9 years of living full time here.. I find most of the Filipino men are GREAT and GOOD. Even out in the province. As long as you know the limits. IF you are bastos.. you better expect a different experience. IF you have any issues with a Filipino, it is likely your fault.
I am pursuing a Filipina now.
