20 Years ago I flew from Florida to Manila to meet a girl I met online. She was the Manager of an Internet Cafe in Cubao and I took a Taxi from my hotel to her workplace there. That was some surreal experience for sure. We have been married 18 years now.
Awe - so sweet - sometimes life is like a jigsaw puzzle - you have a piece and you try desperately to make it fit but it doesn’t work - and finally you try another and it fits perfectly - where it was meant to be - ain’t love grand. 🌈
Nice to see you being open with Lai, you have definitly clicked with each other, nice to see you holding hands. She appears to be very down to earth, which suits you better rather than the princess types always looking at themselves and fiddling with their hair, and wanting high end everything. Lai is a refreshing change, you will have to tell us more about how you met, does she work, how old is she....the usual nosey stuff, lol.
Hi Tom, thanks for the vlog. Lai is sweet. You two make a great couple. I liked the way she rested her head on your shoulder (in the first taxi ride.) You make her feel comfortable and at ease. Looking forward to more adventures. 🙂
Hi Tom, nice to see you with a nice more down to earth lady. You have good chemistry this time. We are following you since the beginning of covid. We will be in the Philippines in February next year. Greetings from Cyprus. Enjoy your time.
@@edithadacillo6472it seems he’s got someone to use as a tour guide or a company to roam around Manila and the lady has no job so shes got all the time to put up with him 😊
Hi Tom, nice to see you out and about with what I can see a lady that makes you happy. I hope you guys are really enjoying each other's company. Btw I was there in the PI Dec/ January. I finally meet my LDR in Negro's, small town called cadiz city, you should travel down there, there's much to see in around Bacolod( I be back September/october) Down south there is Dumaguette too, siquoir is just an hour by boat, can ride around that island in 1 day I believe. Will hopefully see siquoir next trip, great waterfall and I assume a nice place to unwind, especially with company. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Hi Tom. Nice to see you're staying. Can't wait to see all your adventures. I love how you're not afraid to eat in those little restaurants. The food looks great. You guys are a cute couple and I have to say you look more relaxed and into it.
Both of you seems to be happy, smiling together and joking alot. I like her simplicity; I hope she takes care of herself; you never know but I hope you both stay together forever.
I think tom is acting holding hands he never did all that with MJ before, only MJ holding him an taking care of him he's playing lil boy sick in bed. MJ taking care of his lazy ass. 🤣
I think Tom loves MJ still an jealous secretly he is trying to make her jealous with this video. It seems MJ doesn't Care. Lol 🤣 she MJ now has a good lad Robbie.
Thanks for taking us along on your date! I enjoyed watching you do all the work and spend all the money! It’s a nice distraction while I’m stuck at my desk here in the US.
I agree. I like her simplicity and not being “ Maarte” . I hope that Tom will be serious this time and she is for keeps . Hope she’s the one for him ..
She’s not maarte-- she had high standards and there’s nothing wrong with it. She wants more for herself and Filipinos should be like that- Assertive not timid.
Correct these people are bitter and full of jealousy as Mj is almost a perfect girl while Lay looks like Tom’s housemaid a showy she loves to wrap her arms all over Tom’s body
Good video Tom....Great to see you with a "normal" filipina....she looks like a keeper. I was in Makati couple years ago and had to go to Quezon City to get my watch repaired at Ali Mall. Traffic was brutal, so the taxi driver suggested Id be better off taking the train ...I believe it was the IRT. It turned out to be much faster. Quezon is very congested and in June was like an oven. Welcome back to the Philippines dude....I will be in Manila in April before going to Bangkok with my filipina gf....maybe I can buy you guys dinner while I pick your brain about Bangkok.
Super happy for you Tom but also Super happy for Lai,when & where did you meet? Tom its cool to let her order your food,its a filipina way mate.Glad that she is sincere,by always holding onto you
Happy birthday Tom! You really do have the luck of the Irish. ☘️ Lai is a beautiful woman and she is simple, low maintenance and comfortable with whatever you two are doing. She is a keeper! Her great personality makes her twice as beautiful! Enjoy your travels Tom. I love your Philippines content! I would like to see more of the home invasion videos that you have done in the past.
Tom, it's great to see you finally show affection for a woman. I always knew you would never have made it with MJ because your relationship with her was all about her and keeping you in a cage in the province. Good luck, my friend, and enjoy love. Dr. B
Tom, I’m moving there at the end of the month , thanks for all the info. I’m going to stay in Cavite Kawit or Imus. I arrive on April 3. Thanks for all your videos they. Inspired me to make a change.
I have been following on and off some for quite some time now. I would definitely have to say much more now then previously. Very happy for you Tom. You look much happier now brother. I will be there in four days for a months stay.
Hi Tom, your girlfriend is beautiful and genuine. Your both are happily having a loving life ( smile). Keep up your awesome videos of you and Lia. More videos of you both!! Comments are rolling in lol!!! May God bless & protect you both. From USA
Good job Tom.........she's delightful! I have a recommendation for you.....travel by bus 3 hours south of Manila to Anilao Batangus to Altamare Dive and Leisure Resort. You have to walk down like 127 steps to get to the resort, but it's worth it. It's right on the ocean. Walk out your room door, down some steps and you can walk into the water and snorkel. It's packed full of coral reefs right off the shore. They also have an island-hopping excursion that takes you Sombrero Island and another private beach that's really nice (white sand). Reasonably priced as well. Definitely not an overcrowded touristy resort (very laid back and chill). Check it out anyway, it's one of my favorite spots for ocean front and snorkeling on Luzon (they have a website). Would make a good vlog I think. Only down fall is it's secluded so not a lot of choices for restaurants. Cheers!
Hey Tom you both are smitten with each other and long may it last, she is such a lovely young lady and you both really look good together....as for beaches you got many touristy one's as you know but the 2 stand out one's are Coron and of course borocay which I went in January with my family and truly loved it... So your really spoilt for choice....just enjoy your times with Lay and hope she's for keeps..you said your extending your visa but is this gonna be the last b4 going to another country or you keeping to what you said about staying in Philippines for at least 1 yr ?
Very happy for you both Tomand Lai. Tom, you seem much more relaxed than before, and Lai is shy and reaerver, but with a beautiful and natural smile. Tom, don't take her for granted. She's a keeper ❤
Cubao, Quezon City - Manhattan Garden is cheap and very connected to everywhere. 2 MRT's run there and a Rapud Bus transit plus access to Provincial Buses. and she is right. Its on center of the capital!
I think she is much better for u than MJ Simple Low maintenance living the way u want to live Not trying to look rich Not overly dramatic She lets u lead and go at your own pace. Pleasant, quiet, easy going Like my wife of 30+ years
What’s the point in comparing her to MJ? I’m sure comments like this are the last thing that the uploader or MJ want to read. Not only that, but your basing your opinion on videos that’s are minutes long and edited. It would be more respectful to everyone if you just compliment his new GF and not compare her.
@@Mikeycambovideos very true indeed - no camparing - both ladies have their own strengths and weaknesses, and both are beautiful persons... so no camparing, as both touched Tom's life in different times... there are things, matters that we really don't know about... and both are Filipinas--- people, be kind. feelings are everywhere...
What kind of place do you want to be based? Cubao is great if you want good night life and a central location but it's really busy all day and all night. Fairview is not as busy, a lot cheaper with access to a few big malls all close together - there's a couple of condo buildings with cheap rent there too, we own one there and love to stay there whenever we go back to Manila. All depends what you're looking for? Beaches close to Manila - check out anywhere in Batangas or Puerto Galera
Hi Tom, have you tried looking to base yourself in Salcedo Village in Makati? There are still cheap condos in the area like Alfaro Place and Valero Plaza, they're old buildings but the location is superb! You can walk to Legazpi Village, Poblacion, Greenbelt in no time.
Glad u got your visa I am close to getting 2 more years in Hanoi But in 9 months, likely to retire and live in 3 to 5 countries a year so I dont need a long term visa after this year. I think u would like Davao better than Manila
When I retire will move to a condo in Makati close to a few of my relatives and if I want to see my other cousins at my province will just take the plane 35 mins to Bicol . I really enjoy Makati area lots to do and lots of different food to eat.
Really like your style man, you're very personable. Where are you from originally? You sound like from England somewhere. Agree, not a soda man myself either. Water all the way. Actually, Cebu is nicer, and the lifestyle there is awesome =)
You said from some of your vlogs that you wanted to be like more local like us then try the campsites just a few hours away from manila and wont cause you too much penny, like in Tanay Rizal or Norzagaray bulacan like Triple P Campsite camping by the river.
I sure wish you would visit TAGAYTAY for a few days ! ! ! ! ! - - - A beautiful scenic area and popular with Manila residents for a weekend getaway - so I suggest you go during the week to avoid the heavy traffic ! - - - Really enjoy your videos Tom - keep it up. From America.
Much better, cheaper and quicker to take LRT/MRT. You should find a place closer to the train station. Buy the beep card so you don’t have to buy tickets all the time. Mergim Vlogs takes the train and has a beep card. Lay is attractive and will be taking over the vlogs 😂 You2 look good together 🙏

She is so pretty and has this chill vibe.
Lay is very simple and pretty also...

Spot on. No offense to his ex, she was a kind woman, but this is my style here. Great attitude and not so much a princess type😁

Mj is already stable with her finances,before he met this man, shes not depending on him,
@@edithadacillo6472it seems he’s got someone to use as a tour guide or a company to roam around Manila and the lady has no job so shes got all the time to put up with him 😊

Well done! Love seeing your partner in videos as well. She may steal the show as she becomes more comfortable!
Hi Tom. Nice video. Glad to see you’re having fun and settling in. You seem to be enjoying everything. Happy for you. Thanks again. Slainte
. 🍻
that is so nice brother, no more need to hide. you can vlog freely now
Tom that girl is so simple and authentic, she is a typical pilipina, wife material.
You can just tell she is wife material by watching her on YT 🤣🤣
She is a beautiful sweetheart. All original. Great video.
Both of you seems to be happy, smiling together and joking alot. I like her simplicity; I hope she takes care of herself; you never know but I hope you both stay together forever.
The girl seems so simple and pretty! She's sooo natural and no pretentions , liked her better, not maarte.
not like MJ
Sad to say but Tom is changing gf everytine where he is, after MJ he dad lot of girls, i guess he is using these girls only
Is Tom getting broody? Hold hands 👫, smiling.....looing more happy.
Good to see Tom happy.
@Lily-ml9gu Tom always has good chemistry between his female companions.
Time will tell if this is a friend or girlfriend.
I think tom is acting holding hands he never did all that with MJ before, only MJ holding him an taking care of him he's playing lil boy sick in bed. MJ taking care of his lazy ass. 🤣
I think Tom loves MJ still an jealous secretly he is trying to make her jealous with this video. It seems MJ doesn't Care. Lol 🤣 she MJ now has a good lad Robbie.
Happy to see Tom and Lay enjoying moments...
Thanks for taking us along on your date! I enjoyed watching you do all the work and spend all the money! It’s a nice distraction while I’m stuck at my desk here in the US.
I am happy both for Tom & Mj who have moved on to more compatible partners. Lets not compare old & new partners.
I agree❤
Agree🥰
Agree 👍🏽
Totally agree..
Looking forward for long-lasting love team.
She is stunning!!!
Good video Tom. Keep her. She is good for you
She looks pretty and simple. Low maintenance
I agree. I like her simplicity and not being “ Maarte” .
I hope that Tom will be serious this time and she is for keeps . Hope she’s the one for him ..
Agree 3:32
The other one sobrang maarte
She’s not maarte-- she had high standards and there’s nothing wrong with it. She wants more for herself and Filipinos should be like that- Assertive not timid.
Correct these people are bitter and full of jealousy as Mj is almost a perfect girl while Lay looks like Tom’s housemaid a showy she loves to wrap her arms all over Tom’s body
Simple down to earth girl. Some good vibes, good luck guys !
Good video Tom....Great to see you with a "normal" filipina....she looks like a keeper.
I was in Makati couple years ago and had to go to Quezon City to get my watch repaired at Ali Mall. Traffic was brutal, so the taxi driver suggested Id be better off taking the train ...I believe it was the IRT. It turned out to be much faster. Quezon is very congested and in June was like an oven. Welcome back to the Philippines dude....I will be in Manila in April before going to Bangkok with my filipina gf....maybe I can buy you guys dinner while I pick your brain about Bangkok.
Bro you dont have to compete with this girl...its not all about her...she seems content just to be by your side...a proper filipina
lovely young lady Tom, big contrast from MJ😋, happy for you both . 👋👋👋💯
less of drama queen, but drama queens are just click bait. nice girl tom
hi tom i like lay she is simple beauty and not feeling rich.happy for u stay to her
Lai is beautiful , nice catch Tom. Good to see you happy in love again.

Tom are those heated noodle soups salty tasting? Too much salt???? You and Lai have wonderful banter.
I suggest going to Vigan. Should get lots of good video content there. BTW Lai gets 2 thumbs up from me.
Their faces are almost similar ! They looks like brother and sister! Good matching couple!❤️❤️❤️

I renewed my visa extension in Cebu at Gaisano Mactan Island Mallin Lapu Lapu in 10 minutes. Much better than the J Mall in Mandaue.

lots of beautiful beaches in the Philippines to visit, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol, Iloilo, Cebu beaches then Siargao, samal island and many many more
hi tom im happy for you because you find the right girl or pilipina i hope she's is the one ❤
Nice, quick Visa request there. Enjoy seeing you back in Philippines! Hope the best for y'all. Cannot wait to get back to PI!!!
Thanks 🙏
I enjoy watching your vlog tom❤
Tom, there is a Bureau of Immigration office right there in Quezon City. SM Mall EDSA.
I was surprised, you break up with someone, but im happy for you to meet someone very comfortable with you, She is simple and a good accompany ❤❤❤
Absolute love your vids'/vlogs tom..Keep em coming, 👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
Glad u got your visa I am close to getting 2 more years in Hanoi But in 9 months, likely to retire and live in 3 to 5 countries a year so I dont need a long term visa after this year. I think u would like Davao better than Manila
That means we'll get to see more content from 🇵🇭.
Wow- you are impressed by the fast service Tom❤
Tom, you can try Cubao, or Mandaluyong City, a place near the MRT line... easier to go around...
Hey Tom you hit the Lotto with Lay!!! I'm with you water or beer. Soda is so unhealthy!
ummmmm...beer is liquor, which is all unhealthy.
Tom, you can renew your visa anywhere, from your video I believe your near Novaliches, so the nearest Immigration is at SM North Edsa.
Hi Tom how arr you both.shes simple and beautiful
Authentic woman well done Tom.
wow mountain dew in the bottle. That alone would be worth going to the Philippines for.
WOW Tom, first time I see you holding hands with a gf :) i hope its a good sign that ther relationship is doing good ,
GREAT VIDEO TOM. LAI IS LOVELY QUIET GIRL. watching you from Ireland 😊
How did you two met?
Nasugbu Batangas or Pico De Loro or Laiya Batangas it’s a few hours away from Manila by land. Also near Tagaytay City.
Keep em coming. Another great video.
When I retire will move to a condo in Makati close to a few of my relatives and if I want to see my other cousins at my province will just take the plane 35 mins to Bicol . I really enjoy Makati area lots to do and lots of different food to eat.

different cities in MetroManila have different personalities Tom, so explore it, and enjoy
So far so good, at least she's not maarte😅like the other one sobra.Good luck!!
You said from some of your vlogs that you wanted to be like more local like us then try the campsites just a few hours away from manila and wont cause you too much penny, like in Tanay Rizal or Norzagaray bulacan like Triple P Campsite camping by the river.

I went to the same place when I extended my visa before, they are very quick indeed, nice video, thanks for sharing Tom
Let’s go! 🎉 ₳
Ayeahhh tom is inlove😊
Much better, cheaper and quicker to take LRT/MRT. You should find a place closer to the train station. Buy the beep card so you don’t have to buy tickets all the time. Mergim Vlogs takes the train and has a beep card.
Lay is attractive and will be taking over the vlogs 😂 You2 look good together 🙏
Take lay to Ireland for a vacation….
Wanted to see more content from your hometown.
Ok
your filipina is applying the "squirrel grip"...good luck
😂😂😂😂
