I really don't understand the negativity in some of these comments. No country is perfect and obviously neither is the Philippines - if you're paying a decent amount for a home, you obviously wanna make sure it's homey and it works for you. And we all have to admit our problem with time. There is another side to the story but definitely to be committed to a certain date and only be told 2 days prior that it won't be ready can be frustrating for anyone! This is a HOME we're talking about! 😬 Anyway, when you get back to BGC you can try Amano in One Bonifacio Mall, their pizzas are really good too! I'm sure you'll find the right home for you. And looking forward to the province/island videos! 🌴
I’m curious, there are so many countries in Southeast Asia, why did you choose the Philippines as your base? In fact, your other videos can still be uploaded and turned into a special video! I hope you recover soon and have a happy stay in the Philippines! Thank you for telling us about your past experiences and future plans, and I wish you all the best! 👍🥰🙏
Sorry to hear about your apartment hunting, Zane! 😢 I'm Filipino, but "Filipino time" is no excuse, especially in professional settings. Hope you get a nice apartment soon! Looking forward to more of your travel vlogs. For BAGUIO, I would suggest trying out Victory Liner's Royal Class luxory sleeper bus! 🚎😊
You were on point about the Airbnb situation. Seems that the majority of Airbnb owners are taking the opportunity to make as much money as possible. Short stays are quite costly on short notice because there is a lot of demand compared to the monthly discounts. Enjoy your provinces trip! Looking forward to it!
THANKYOU Zane for.showingnour country to the world.... there informative clean and entertaining Im looking forward for your Iloilo trip and thenprovince
As someone has suggested why not check out Greenfield District or Capitol Commons at Ortigas for condos to rent? The prices are a bit lower than BGC. Also it is situated in the heart of Metro Manila and a short ride to other upcoming redevelopments like Bridgetown and Greenhills.
Yes so excited for the Okada Manila Vlog stay there for 1night and blog eveeything there check out eveey corner of the hotel/mall specially the cove manila in okada is so incredible really beautiful they say that it's the biggest indoor beach. 😍
Take care Zane wherever you go in different places or provinces in our country. I am following your channel while I am here at the Saudi Arabia - Kuwait border. Me and my wife will go home this Christmas and spend Christmas and New Year in Quezon City and in our home city north of Manila. I am following your channel. So nice!
Hey Zane, in case youre still interested in renting in BGC, my family has a 1BR unit in Uptown (not Park suites though) that might be vacant by end of December/early January since were not sure if our current tenant is renewing. We can do a 6-month lease and it's under your budget :) its furnished but nothing fancy.
Hahahhaa. Perfectionist in the comment section everywhere.. 😂 I'd like to see you visit places less-vlogged - Batanes, Benguet, Baguio, Ilocos, Camiguin, Romblon, etc
Hi. I'm new to your channel, and right away, I noticed your blue eyes. I'm a guy but whenever I see a person with those eyes, I give them complement. That's rare, particularly in that part of the world. Lol. I have a co-worker here, and the color of his eyes pops up more when he's wearing a royal blue shirt. Just saying. 😊
You're better off brother. It defeats the purpose of being in the Philippines if you're going to spend all your time in a modern city. There's too much beauty there to stare at steel and glass every day. ✌️
Just a warning, DO NOT ever rent an Airbnb or rental unit at an SMDC owned building. They might have tight security but its way overboard. I will say they are not Airbnb friendly. They scrutinize and very strict with Airbnb users but they are so lenient with delivery and courier people. Again, no SMDC rentals
It’s Filipino time in the Philippines 😂 I don’t like it but what can I do I live in the 🇵🇭. Dolce Amore Resort n Restaurant has 5 ⭐️ review on their pizza. It’s an authentic Italian restaurant with only 2 locations, one in Cebu and the other in Siquijor. People are saying they serve the best pizza in SE Asia.
if you don't want commitment, I have a place for you, Mall of Asia complex, one bedroom condo, I don't normally to offer anyone but you. Let's talk about it, I live and work in California.
I DIEEE😂 THAT PERSON RECOMMENDED YOU TO GENTLE MONSTER FOR CONTACT SOLUTION !?! LMAOOOOOO - that’s a really popular luxury Korean Sunglass store because of JENNIE 😂😂😂
“That happens in the Philippines..”?? I have lived in the US as well and it happens there often as well. Sorry I cannot let this comment of yours just pass through just like that.
Zane being in the food industry over 30+;yrs. they don't wash their food properly, handling money and food with bare hands which is cross contamination. I noticed this in your videos. U have to be careful 🙏🏼❤
@@dorightbyjesus_scorpion9489 lol, rats running in donuts in NYC, those Chinese restaurants exposed by news channel, ice cream licking in an ice cream shop and in my very own eyes as a delivery driver. I saw how they prepare burgers in a fastfood without using gloves while handling the buns for the burgers ewww! 😂
Please, beware of eating bivalves such as oysters or mussels in the Philippines. I got a week-long stomachache from eating oysters and eating mussels on two separate in the the Philippines. My Fil-Am family friend nearly died from eating oysters in the Philippines. Now, I only eat canned oysters in season from the West Coast of the USA.
Please move on! I'm sure it's a nice place, but to be honest, I'm getting a bit bored of endless references to "BGC" and constant vlogs of tall buildings, shopping malls and fast food chains/restaurants. Your channel has a great deal of potential; I like your vlogging style; but it's getting very predictable and a bit boring. It would be nice to learn about the real Philippines, and not just the parts that remind you of home. Hopefully your upcoming vlogs will help us non-locals achieve that, as well as broadening your travel experiences. Get your head out of the US, you're living through an opportunity that most can only ever dream of!
I agree how many more shopping mall's and coffee n tea and expensive food chains. Do you ever go out at night and let go and enjoy yourself and meet locals. It seems a very lonely way t travel the world 🌎. That said everyone is different and you're travels are yours to do what you want 👎✌️😎🇬🇧
@leeedwards2659 I agree that if he's not a clubber, we're unlikely to experience the nightlife through his eyes in the places he visits. That's his choice. But in my humble opinion, he has the opportunity to sell the places he visits to the travellers of the world. He has an easy vlogging style, and seems like a nice bloke. I think his channel could really take off if he stepped out of his comfort zone and showed us places that don't look like the US (most of us already know what that looks like, even if it's somewhere you've never actually been!). Personally I found this channel because I was planning a trip to Bangkok, and I stuck around because I enjoyed the channel, even if there was a big focus on Bangkok's malls! But if he's going to win over the crowd who watch for research purposes (and I think he could do that), he needs to get more adventurous.
@andybaker2456 wasn't knocking the guy everyone is different and travel in different ways. I've been following his chanel for a long time i just feel there getting a bit repetitive. His vlogs need to start lets say get a bit more diverse a bit more cultural. But at the end of the day it's his travelling not mine and there's lots of other people out there in the same places showing different sides of things ✌️❤️😎🇬🇧
So tired of back vlogs, it’s such a boring soulless place, basically the Philippines trying to create Singapore which is also boring, unless you like endless shopping malls- much more interesting cities in se Asia to explore, try Saigon to feel a place with atmosphere , wouldn’t move to bcc if you paid me

views, what else could it be?
Yes gotta be the views
Phillipines is a beautiful country good food nice people 😊❤️
Filipinos are English-speaking and friendlier than people in other countries. Filipinos invite you to their homes and regard you like a family friend.
Sorry to hear about your apartment hunting, Zane! 😢 I'm Filipino, but "Filipino time" is no excuse, especially in professional settings. Hope you get a nice apartment soon!
Looking forward to more of your travel vlogs. For BAGUIO, I would suggest trying out Victory Liner's Royal Class luxory sleeper bus! 🚎😊
You will love Iloilo! Its a peaceful, thriving city, a mix of new developments and old, gracious living.😊😊
You were on point about the Airbnb situation. Seems that the majority of Airbnb owners are taking the opportunity to make as much money as possible. Short stays are quite costly on short notice because there is a lot of demand compared to the monthly discounts. Enjoy your provinces trip! Looking forward to it!
For pizza, try Gino's, Crosta, A mano and Wildflour Italian. You can explore High Street South and McKinley Hill another time as well.
THANKYOU Zane for.showingnour country to the world.... there informative clean and entertaining Im looking forward for your Iloilo trip and thenprovince
Love all your BGC contents!
So excited on your next adventure! Good luck Zane!
Sorry about your experience. You're gonna love Iloilo. Best of luck! 😊

That’s very nice of you to offer but I’m not entirely ready to commit at the moment! Thank you!
@@zanetravel no problem! Offer still stands if you end up changing your mind down the line
Goodluck Zane on your traveling to different places in the Philippines and i’ll be looking forward to your next vlogs .. take care!
Nice to see you 👍👍👍
You may want to try Federal land units behind the Mitsukoshi mall.
Better try Ayala Makati or for some other better options in the McKinley West Area near American Cemetery
just make sure to spend Christmas and New Years eve in BGC if you're staying in the philippines for that long! It gets crazy in NYE lol.
You should also check in green field district
Always thought of Mary Grace known for their Ensemada. Never thought of going there for flat bread pizza. It looked good!
I would suggest to check/stay for a week in every city that you visit to know the place prior you decide where to stay.
This is the same issue I encountered in the Philippines
Amazing story of your condo search in BGC? Where are you currently staying at in BGC? or are you just doing airbnbs and travelling?
Nice area for apartment hunting😊
❤💋🌹enjoy here and be safe!
If you want the best pizza go to Crosta Pizzeria in Makati they also won an award recently for one of the best pizza places in Asia
❤❤❤
Hi Zane ❤
You Should Check out Eastwood Since You know The Area , Maybe It’s Affordable There Than BGC ….. ✌️🖐️👍👍👍👍💕
Greenfield lots of condos there, fame, avida towers to name a few. Close to edsa shangrila , sm mega mall
Hahahhaa. Perfectionist in the comment section everywhere.. 😂
I'd like to see you visit places less-vlogged - Batanes, Benguet, Baguio, Ilocos, Camiguin, Romblon, etc
+1 to Batanes and Romblon. Maybe even add places that never get any exposure like Marinduque or Catanduanes.
You should try Mango Bene cake in Mary Grace
Love the tapa and mango bene of Mary Grace. 13:42

He’s American dummy.

Mercury Drug is better than Watsons. You can find all the meds and health-related stuff you'll need there.
My favorite pizza is 3 cheese pizza of Habanero KItchen Bar in Cubao Expo
which video is the apartment tour?
About your contact lens solution problem: you ever thought of buying a smaller bottle then filling that with the solution?

Explore market tradisional , transportation in philipina not just BGC area.. I want see all city in Philipina, local area not just modren too
What apartment did you decide to go with?
There are a lot apartment in manila which is more cheaper than BGC , only rich people can afford BGC apartment.
Zane you can find 30 to 35 k one bdroom furnish at BGC.
Pizza looks good
I've heard Crosta Pizzeria makes the best pizzas in town.
You can get a little bit cheaper like 35,000 pesos I guess that’s for a year
Have you produced a video on how you fund your travels?
I go into detail about this in an upcoming podcast with Savvy Expat. Will post to my community tab.
Hello 👋
The pizza needs more cheese I think..😊
It’s Filipino time in the Philippines 😂 I don’t like it but what can I do I live in the 🇵🇭.
Dolce Amore Resort n Restaurant has 5 ⭐️ review on their pizza. It’s an authentic Italian restaurant with only 2 locations, one in Cebu and the other in Siquijor. People are saying they serve the best pizza in SE Asia.
It’s on my list to go! Can’t wait to try it!
if you don't want commitment, I have a place for you, Mall of Asia complex, one bedroom condo, I don't normally to offer anyone but you. Let's talk about it, I live and work in California.
The vloggers ridiculous obsession with BGC. Come to Philippines and live in the least Philippines place in the whole country.
I DIEEE😂 THAT PERSON RECOMMENDED YOU TO GENTLE MONSTER FOR CONTACT SOLUTION !?! LMAOOOOOO - that’s a really popular luxury Korean Sunglass store because of JENNIE 😂😂😂
Failed Sorry bonvoyage
Sum your experience up in a short sentence ..welcome to the filipino time
“That happens in the Philippines..”?? I have lived in the US as well and it happens there often as well. Sorry I cannot let this comment of yours just pass through just like that.
Good choice spend time in ILO ILO

I alzo don't understand this filipino time of being late always.. It's really un-productive..

He ate in a turo turo in UP campus.I guess thats how he got food poison.

someone prob outbid you.
Talk to mergin vlog for this condo
Never talk to that man, you might end up in his channel talking bitter about you lol
Its time to exit and change ASEAN country, good luck bye
Prices and your channel is getting boring 😴
If you talk about BGC just ask mergin vlog 😂 he knows everything ❤
Please don't do videos where you walk back and forth or in a small circle. That's really jarring to watch.
Are you only doing this for content don’t you? Ask youself! How much is you budget, bgc is not only the place
So tired of back vlogs, it’s such a boring soulless place, basically the Philippines trying to create Singapore which is also boring, unless you like endless shopping malls- much more interesting cities in se Asia to explore, try Saigon to feel a place with atmosphere , wouldn’t move to bcc if you paid me
gosh jimmy.. you can do better than this 🙄
Cool beans man
