You do your research, no wonder your vids are rising up so fast!! Unlike other foreign vloggers that doing their travels here in the Philippines are so common already..Like this video! Have fun in our country!!☺
Thank you and I’m having a blast in the Philippines. I appreciate you for commenting and supporting :)
Different vloggers different contents and definitely different styles..to each his own. And of course, different subscribers with different tastes.
@@karenbrecio1649 true, and I'm watching travel vlogs for years already. And I'm a fan of different vloggers, I'm just saying that sometimes you have make an effort to be notice. Anyways what most important that they just being themselves and enjoy what their doing.☺
Because his style is different....he fucos on what his eyes is capturing...more often he is behind the camera talking rather than like other vloggers always include their ugly faces on the screen talking and the view we like to see behind them...
Innovation!
I have been living in Manila for the past 60 yrs and I didn't even know this cafe existed. The building and the inside of the restaurant shows grandeur, reminiscent of how great the Philippines was during the times when Manila enjoyed the label of Pearl of the Orient and the Paris in Asia. It must be an expensive place to dine? Thanks for discovering this place for me!😊
You’re most welcome! The meal I had was about 380 pesos which is pretty good in my opinion :)
That price is reasonable
Too expensive for Filipinos hehe ✌️
It was only renovated during the time of manila mayor isko moreno
Hahahaha
This is a first time that a foreign vlogger covers the LRT1 ride. Much appreciate your comments on the AC and service indicators posted. You can actually go around Metro Manila using the 3 metrolines and 2.more are being constructed MRT7 and Subway system. And the one that you rode is being extended down aouth about 20 kms more to Cavite. Addicted to your vlogs, all the best
I watch your channel because I love Thailand and wasn't sure how these new videos would turn out because you seemed to be chasing views and I don't blame you after grinding for two years but damn these new videos are great and the energy is there. Your subscribers are going up and the Philippines is awesome!!!
I hope my videos will make you also fall in love with the Philippines. Thank you for still being here and supporting, means the world to me :)
I see happenis in ur eyes now
There should be no contest! I am Pinoy and I love unique, exotic Thailand too!! Lol, I hop on to Bangkok every year and get lost in Chatuchak!
Many Filipinos travel to your country for holiday and pleasure. Many beautiful places to see and things to do especially the elephant ride and floating markets. We don't have that here.
@@joannaduldulao3482 whut da?
I was bowled over when you ride the train alongside with those bunch of commuters, it blew my mind that you're becoming a Filipino. By the way, the quality of your videos are second to none, I can sense that vlogging is really your cup of tea.
Yes, it's amazing to see foreigner to ride a train
The food is superb
A lot of you guys seem to be blown away by it. Is there any reason why people choose to stay away from them? Vlogging is in my dna 🧬
Wow, nice video with mergim riding a train
@@MergimVlogsYT because most travel foreigners never stay in manila, they straight go to the other destination which is much better,, hahaha
2k views in just two hrs.
Congratulations! Just last week you were ranting your frustrations on getting few viewership while in Thailand. Now your effort is paying off. You’ll hit it off here in the PH. Just don’t forget to be grateful to Filipinos and their hospitality.
It’s all we ask for: appreciation and acknowledgement.
Cheers 🍻
Sana all.
please dont be too hard on your navigator, its also her first time to use Manila trains. i was lost 2x to 3x before i got the hang of it because i was not used to using trains coming from the province and been using private car, taxis or jeeps for most of my student life.
See? Your YT channel is growing now in a little span of time. As a Filipino we'll always watch videos with regards the Philippines. As long as you'll sincere with us I'm definitely sure it will grow. Now you can actually identify the difference between Thailand and the Philippines. Filipinos are appreciative and knows to return the favors to someone's efforts.
Indeed
Although you didn't catch the sunset I'm still impress with how you tried all the public transportation here in the Philippines...
you’re the only vlogger I know who actually do researches when going somewhere when it’s their first time, no wonder your channel rapidly growing 🙌
To be honest, I was initially hesitant to subscribe because it seems that you were only chasing views, which is totally understandable since you're a vlogger. But man, after seeing your recent videos I have nothing but praise on the quality and effort you put on your work. Keep it up! And don't worry about missing the sunset. While you're still here, you can still catch a good one anywhere in the country actually, especially in the islands. 🙂👍
I am happy to see your channel growing since you step foot here in PH🇵🇭. ❤️ You definitely made the right choice. Now all your effort and hard work is paying off. God bless you! Cheers to more great contents! 👏
I like the style of vlogging you do - you don’t sanitize the bad parts of Manila from the good ones - very realistically done - keep it up! Your new subscriber from LA
If you are still in Manila, there is a place in the Intramuros Area which you have to check out, and it is also the perfect 'make it up' place you you to see a stunning sunset, its called La Cathedral, located smack infront of the Cathedral in Intramuros. Observing you, I noticed that you are interested in histoical facts, Intramuros is the place for you to check out. Get there early.
I kinda appreciate you. Usually, foreign tourists will just skip Manila and go to the beaches and province and forest. Manila is underappreciated. Hope you can still go around Metro Manila. Our country is open for any side of society. From the slums, to the riches area, to the historical places, and many more. Glad seeing you introducing Manila.
Baliktad sakin. Im under impression that most of em mainly features Manila and its modern aspects, leaving other parts of our country unexplored
Since I've watched you vlog prior to your arrival in our country and the reason behind it makes me feel sad and I've decided to follow your journey. My first time subscribing and commenting on a foreign vlogger😊. Your content were impressive and shows that you invest time and effort doing research and it really came across to us viewers, kudos to you sir. You can still see a beautiful sunset when you will set foot in Boracay soon. Experience our Filipino hospitality. Welcome to my country ,have a blast and keep safe. God Bless.
So you missed this sunset? there'll be another so long as you're still in Manila and the ones in the islands wherever in the Philippines are even more glorious and breathtaking! Don't you get disappointed over this in your journeys, good to great things are in store still when you remain calm! I've got to look for this cafe on my next visit home. Maraming salamat!
Thanks for the positive comment. The restaurant is located on Juan luna street in binondo :)
It's OK. Not the end of the world. There's always tomorrow. A lot of Filipinos in their 30s and using the train for the first time get lost. It's OK because you're not familiar. Just laugh at the mistakes and no need to voice your frustration towards your GF. To great Vlogs ahead!
This channel is educational.. aside from featuring the sceneries of the Philippines.. it has additional information about the place and its history. Thank you Bro..and again welcome to the Philippines🇵🇭 bless up! Peace✌️
There's one thing about the Philippines, if you miss one beautiful sunset, there's always tomorrow (assuming it's not cloudy) but for an experience, if you go to Boracay, at sunset be sure to go on one of the little sailing boats and watch the sun going down ...magical. PS, don't blame your girlfriend for missing the sunset, it's her first time aswell.
Very informative! Hope to see more. Keep it up! Enjoy your stay in the Philippines and stay safe. Hello from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you, so long as you guys are happy with the content, I will keep pumping them out :)
EYY thank you! I've only seen a few handfuls of foreign vloggers actually riding the trains. And I honestly appreciate your honesty. Our trains and overall transportation sucks, but we are starting to work on it. Hence, why there's a progress report. And I'm hoping that this continues up to the next administration. By the way, Monday is election day here in the Philippines. It might be more crowded in the streets.
they’re honestly decent in my opinion when the air cons are working :)
And that LRT line is the oldest in Manila..I think it's even older than the ones in Singapore or Kuala Lumpur, yeah because I have to those places in the early 1980's and there were no LRT or MRts then.
@@MergimVlogsYT That LRT line 1 is the oldest in Southeast Asia, opened in 1984.
Yes, our public transportation system really needs improvement.
It connects to LRT 2 that would bring you to Quezon City in the northern Metro Manila and Marikina City in the east. The line also connects to MRT 3 where you can go hopping on to Makati and Ortigas Central Business thru Ortigas station. The huge SM mega mall is located just over hundred meters from that MRT station.
Agree… PH put up the first LRT in the Southeast Asia but our neighbors like Bangkok, Singapore and KL have surpassed us in terms of the number of lines and stations.
Well, I am positive for the near future. MRT 7 will be completed next year and the biggest Metro Manila subway has started its tunneling..
@@ronnienestor yes, and I hope the next one will be mrt 3's extension to sm moa. Imagine how easy it would be for Filipinos to travel all over NCR.
I wouldn't let missing the sunset get to you or your girlfriend. The sunset is a scene to behold for sure, but hopefully you guys will have another chance to view it before you head off to your next adventure. 😉 For now, just enjoy everything else that Manila has to offer. Take care guys, stay safe!
I’m sure we will catch another great sunset sometime soon :)
@@MergimVlogsYT relax and enjoy the journey, you are amazing!
@Mergim vlogs
glad you're trying to enjoy the food here 😁 i would love to see you try jollibee or our halo halo here 😁
@@MergimVlogsYT Or perhaps next time, you could possibly try to stay near where the sunset at Manila Bay is located instead. :) Cheers!
Well, you done all your research in every vlog in the places u go,that is good👍( with sense of historical value).In Metro Manila alone u can take up to 100 vlogs before you leave and go outside Manila and take new journey which is more nature(beaches,historical churches,mountains,etc.).Don't forget to Palawan which is the best island in the world...GOODLUCK & GODBLESS!!!!
I love the no hassle thumbnails! Feels authentic! Loving your content so far! Stay honest! I'm staying tuned!
I love that your style of vlogging is very informative. Makes it different from the others. I just pity your girlfriend for being blamed. She’s foreign to this country just like you are. Just a tip. Filipinos are very respectful to women.
Come on people, let's get him to 20K subscribers!
Yoooo that would be mental!
I sent a link to my Aunt in Winnipeg. But she is too much of a Becoming Filipino fan. I described this channel as reading Lonely Planet travel books from the 80s. Hoping she will be a + 1.
Exactly, thanks for pointing that out. It's like watching the 90s Lonely Planet travel shows over again. Those were the best and what inspired me to travel Asia.
So close to 20K now!
wow, 20K subs now! It doubled in just a short span of time... been following you since I'd watched your vlog about the reason why many vloggers transferred to our country!
Food vlog, history, cinematography , good narrative roiled into one. Power on!
That’s it! More to come :)
Exactly!
I don't usually comment on videos but watching the Lrt ride made me. Thank you for being different. Keep it up sir! Hope that your videos are longer but yeah waiting for your next upload. God bless and enjoy your stay here in the Philippines!
It's ok, sunsets are always great/beautiful in the Philippines. Every wrong turn is a new adventure.
Also, I recommend trying the LA CATHEDRAL CAFE in the City of Manila. Another hidden gem of the City of Manila, bringing you to the 1800s during the Spanish colonial era.
Its great to see the historical background being included with the food review. The grand cafe is definitely a must try if doing a Binondo tour
Not to mention the video was really good love the quality and the presentation!
If confused you can try to approach anyone and ask direction they can help you .. just don't be hard with your girl maybe she tried her best finding direction too. Going to Baywalk is really hard since Train stations are far and confusing in from that area unless you use Private cars... Even I sometimes get lost in that area.. Goodluck to your next journey.
Appreciate it the kind words :)
@@MergimVlogsYT 😊😊😊
@@MergimVlogsYTHi Mergim, Filipinos are opinionated and frank in nature compared to other Asians. So, get used to it. We express our appreciation and also our concerns..like how you treat your bf/gf, family or friends.
Looking at your history of number of views. I can feel your super HYPE UP ENERGY with the blow up views and the energy of your viewers w your new content. Are you happy and enjoying PHILIPPINES?
I certainly feel revitalized and I’m having a blast here in the Philippines :)
@@MergimVlogsYT glad to know that. Im happy for you. I watchd your video before going to the Philippines and your struggle in getting number of views inspite of creating good content with sleepless nights and know some youtubers going to the Philippines from Thailand and suddenly enjoying an explosion of views and followers. Now experiencing d same. Just be genuine, true to the Filipinos and we will welcome you. THE REAL TRADEMARK OF FILIPINOS “ we are very HOSPITABLE “ VERY! God bless enjoy
I have subscribed! - You are right, you take time to polish your video and adding story snippets of the places you go! It is very rare to find to any youtubers out there. And thanks for featuring the Philippines. I've been away from my country for so long and featuring the Philippines is a delight and bringing some memories and longing. Thank you!
Hey brother Mergim, I sub when you're at 6.5k level.. one week later, your channel is exploding both in subs and views.. it is amazing to see subs are coming not only from the 7k+ PH islands but also from (reading comments) France, Japan, Canada, Saudi Arabia, and many other countries. Filipinos are everywhere.. and you have become our eyes, nose, ears, etc.. thank you for experiencing things we could not experience for ourselves... thank you for being our eyes, ears, nose and for doing food tasting for us.. most of all, THANK YOU for all your amazing Philippine Videos so far, the narrative, the QUALITY of the videos.. and of course the HONESTY that goes with it. Continue to soak into what PH can offer to you.. enjoy it.. and travel safe.
XD listening to foreigners pronounce the names of places always cracks me up, i find myself smiling when they pronouncing it right and grinning when i hear it incorrectly, all the love and support, to you sir and i really love how you go to the different places that are not that well known and brought up by other vloggers
You do justice to the Filipinos by showing the true daily lives of the working class Filipinos on account of joining them riding the train during rush hour
you are in for a suprise for the rise of subscribers Mergrim... from this vlos at 17k+ to now after 2 days it's wrapping at 24k+ ... that's how we thanks our Foreign visitors especially those who put in a lot of effort studying our history and really getting to know our kababayans ( countrymen) ...the way you blog is refreshing ..informative and no holds barred.. keep safe travelling and enjoy your stay... oh and yah alcohol spray and sunecteen please..
Enjoy watching like I'm behind ur back haha awesome vlog
insane editing skills, and the well researched info.. deym.. a very high quality content.. more power Mergim! Stay blessed!
You’re awesome bud! I’m really glad you like the videos, as you pointed out I really do go in with the edits
True to that...
Papa Jhem, you're here! I just watched your vlog.
@@happyjoy7040 😮❤️ thank you!
papa jhem anonod karin pala ng mga travel vlog.... hahaha
No skipping ads as usual , glad ur views and subs going up since arriving in the Philippines
They been absolutely sky rocketing in the Philippines and thanks for watching those ads for me. I hope you enjoy the video :)
Amazing vlog. I'm so pleased your views and subscribers have increased 100% whilst you are in the Philippines. I hope you consider Philippines as your homebase soon like the many vloggers who truly immersed, stayed and enjoyed the Philippines. Good luck and keep on vlogging.
Literally your video views are peaking up drastically high since moving here in PH! Im excited to see your channel grow exponentially this yr. No doubt you'll be hitting that half a million subs and views in just a few months from now and soon road to a million. 🔥🥳
I'm learning a lot from your videos about my country. Details set your videos apart from others. I'm pretty sure so many other Filipino living abroad around the world, like me, will learn a lot from these videos. Thank you.
Since you have been to Juan Luna St., I suggest that you go to the National Museum of Fine Arts and stand before the majestic painting of Juan Luna called the Spoliarium. It is the largest oil on canvas painting in the Philippines. In 1884, it won the gold medal of Exposición Nacional de Bellas Artes in Madrid, besting the best that European painters can offer. It propelled Juan Luna's friend and our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal to write his two novels, "Noli Me Tangere" and "El Filibusterismo", which led to the latter's execution by firing squad by the Spanish colonial government, causing the Filipino Indios to rise in revolt and throw off our colonial chains. Dr. Jose Rizal considered his novels to be Spoliarium in the form of literature.
Just subscribed today so I am bingeing on your past Philippine vids. I'm in video #4. Happy with your well-researched and high quality vids. Your hardwork is definitely worth watching. Keep it up.
I appreciate the work you put in on your videos. Well-researched, music selection, and a little bit of documentary vibe to it which sets your vlogs apart from the rest. Awesome work!
kinda getting hooked watching your videos! keep up the great work!
That means the videos must be good I guess :)
Great video! Don't worry about the sunset! These things happen, especially in a new city which has a confusing transportation system. Manila's sunsets are some of the consistently best in the world. Every sunset (and sunrise) is majestic, so you can choose any other day of the week and return again :). I'd personally say the sunrises are even more majestic, especially when in the provinces (there's the morning mist and the clear skies and cooler weather). Probably great to see in Tagaytay in Cavite or Antipolo in Rizal, both highland areas with much cooler weather just outside of Metro Manila.
For sunsets, you could go to the Dolomite beach where you were, but sadly the beach isn't completed yet, and so you'd be limited to the bridge/overpass area. The Mall of Asia Boulevard is the better place, and you can take the MOA Eye (it's a somewhat smaller version lf the London Eye, but it's the highest ferris wheel in Metro Manila). The view from there is stunning come sunset.. Otherwise, a few years ago there were Manila Bay sunset/dinner cruise companies whid take you out for dinner on the bay around sunset. I'm not sure if those companies have survived the lockdown period, but seeing the sunset while sailing within Manila Bay looking back at the extensive city skyline must be special. Seascape by Sofitel is also a good food place to relax come sunset.
Wow thank you for taking the time to write this very informative comment. I really want to catch an amazing sunset in Manila because the weather here recently has been incredible and i would really like to share it with you guys watching. Thanks supporting my channel it really means a lot to me!
@@MergimVlogsYT Thank *you* for your excellent videos and really interesting content 🙏 Hope my small tips can help in some way. I had no idea about the history of the 1919 café! HSBC? British Consulate?? 🤩 That's what really sets your content apart from the others I've seen. Delving into the local history and providing interesting tidbits of information of these locations while visiting them, stuff about local culture, even the architectural features etc, which helps us as viewers gain a deeper and immersive appreciation of the place too! Kudos, it was a brilliant video and you're one of my favourite TH-camrs! :)
Awesome video. Very informative .Not every vlogger is doing such research about the history of the Philippines and putting it together to create this awesome video is not that easy .My respect and i wish you more success on your journey in TH-cam World. Looking forward to the next one 😊👍.
You have quality videos man! Nice! Keep it up!
Wow i think this is my first time seeing foreign vlogger riding the LRT and pedicab. Hands-off to you and your girlfriend doing the most common mode of transportation by the locals. Though you missed sunset, there's always next time. I really love your content, informative and artistic clips. Kind of different from others in a good way. Well done!
I Really appreciate your kind comment, we’ll try and catch sunset here in Manila the next upcoming days :)
I didn't see the pedicab didn't know manila had those
Very well presented! Keep on vlogging.
The difference of views is surprising. Kudos.
Difference in views is worlds apart
Glad to see your channel growing😊👍. My only criticism would be that you keep the hat on inside a nice restaurant 😉😎
Im a new subscriber and i like how you infuse history with your vlogs. Loving it! Pls continue to do so. Excited for the next one! Your passion will definitely match Filo’s support to whoever makes a genuine vlog about our country. Stay safe! Enjoy!☺️
Thank you for doing some research. A LOT of travel vloggers would never even bother to go to some fancy Filipino restaurants.
Hi Mergin. Watching your new video now even if its almost 1 in the morning . I'm your number one fan here in Paris,France.
Appreciate it a lot. It 7am here in he Philippines and is still haven’t slept yet as I was getting this video out
The last time I saw your channel, your subscribers were like around 8k and now it's almost 20k. I must say your contents are informative and not just a plain vlog just like what others are doing. I'm enjoying it. Keep it up!
Keep videos coming... we're here to support all the way . ..💙💙💙
Here in PH ... you will learn to be patient and smile... even when something goes wrong...
Cheers to your GF... have a good day always.
Next time try asking people where to go and they are glad to help and give you a shortcut and easy direction where to go no need to base on phone always its easy fast and free to ask Filipino is so hospitable helpful PEOLPE 😁
Nice content! Congratulations on almost 20k!
Waiting for new videos here 🙋❤️ Have fun! Looking forward for your new adventures and food trips. Take care ☺️🇵🇭
Thank you for supporting many more new videos to come :)
Just saw your video now. Better late than never hehe. As always, another awesome video. Keep it up bro :)
I completely agree with that statement! Thanks again for watching :)
wow happy to see your subscriber grows so fast you had a a gooddecision to come to the philippines Congrats more power
It was literally the best decisions ever, and I owe it all to you folks :)
Wow. You are very consistent on putting history first in places you are trying to visit. You deserved more subscribers and thank you for visiting and respecting my country.
Another great vlog! Keep it up. ❤️👍🏼
Hi Mergim,
Just a reminder, our culture is more leaning to females, so try as much not to show a not so good behaviour towards female. Please do not blame your girlfriend. She does not know philippines that much. Or if she knows, she is not as perfect as everyone else as we keep on making mistakes and we move on 😁
Thanks for letting me know I appreciate the advice :)
BTW, your gf is beautiful.
@@MergimVlogsYT Yes. It’s good that someone posted that one.
Gender equality in the country is the highest in Asia… in terms of holding top job positions, administration in government, schools, etc. The country had two female Presidents. Blaming someone in public is a taboo.
... he is just another chauvinist
@ybanag, Judgment like you are spewing is not very respectful to someone who seems to show genuine interest in learning what our country is all about. Chill! Welcome to the Philippines, Mergim.
I was even not aware of 1919 Cafe, thanks to you, there’s another place I would want to try when I come back home to Manila. Also, LRT looks crowded, in fact some times it can be more crowded than that, but it’s faster way and beats the heavy traffic on the road.
Sometimes the queue would reach until the street level. Horror story when pressed with time.
I love how unique your videos are-- captivating, informative, comprehensive, sincere. Makes me want to watch it from start to finish.
Welcome to the Philippines! Mabuhay!
Can't wait for you to explore more of our country. But surely take your time. 🥂🍾
Always looking forward to my mornings to check a new vlog from you. Have yet to try that cafe out myself
Man, I’m homesick now. It’s been 3 yrs that I didn’t go back home in the Philippines. Your videos brings home to me.
Wooow they gave you snacks !!
Truly, we love our tourists and only want them to be happy and safe!! Much love ❤️ take care!
They did, we were super taken back by the kind gesture :)
@@MergimVlogsYT it's also their thanks and appreciation that you hv promoted unintentionally their restaurant because I heared someone asking if you are a blogger.
Awesome video again!
Love Love Love how you put your videos together. The quality is like watching the discovery channel. Awesome!
been living in the metro for about a decade already and i didn't know that cafe exists!! wow!! and sunsets, there's many chances to chase that.. strolling and getting lost in the main roads is fun :)) good to see you're enjoying more than complaining the busy streets of manila. 😄😄
Becoz c and the p happened.
Hi brother, im the driver recently at quiapo the tricycle driver that you need to talk is in here right now.
No way! How can I contact you?
Shall we come now? Is he still there?
yes
this is my fb acc Hakim HD
@@kimtv8634 ok I’ve sent you a message
Wow! Thanks for showing this beautiful cafe! Have to check it out some day
Great Quality Please keep it up!!
Cool 👌 food always spot on. Thanks for the additional info.🇵🇭👍 Things happened for a reason and if we respond positively, it always be in our favor. There's still another day🌞. Time only lost if we can't see the sunset permanently 👍🇵🇭🙏
Hi thank you for visiting Philippines
I like your style of vlogging
Try to visit coron Palawan & you'll be amazed
Thank you and I’m sure I will be :)
I like your style of vlogging so cool and relaxing... More vlogging my friend, very excited to see you in the whole Philippine Island... When I first see your channel it's 9.6k but now it's 19k wow, so exploding... Thanks
Wow congrats on your channel u have a lots of viewers now here in the 🇵🇭 congratulations 😍😊
To be honest, even as a Filipino, I havent been to the cafe you've went to :D will definitely give a visit :) Thanks for vlogging about the Philippines! Hope to see you guys around!
Funny how traveling in a foreign country always has mishaps that causes a little argument between friends, partners and family. Then you laugh about it afterwards. Visit the bay again for another sunset. Best to be at the Mall of Asia before you catch the sunset. It's just a walk away from the bay. Don't go there on a weekend, it's packed. But if you're okay with the crowd, go for it. Sunday is Family Day in the Philippines, whilst Saturday is like the day most friends hangout.
Watching your vlog gives me new info about my own place. I say, it becomes my new routine to check your latest upload. Just chill when unexpected things happen. Enjoy the ride, it's the adventure that's worth the taking. Have fun!
i starting liked how u vlog.its so clear and smooth.ur one of my fav. vlogger now here in the Philippines.greetings from taiwan. 💯👍🙏
Oh my Salute to you for trying our LRT Train! I havent seen foreign vloggers’ perspective on how they feel when using our trains. But I am glad you compared it to your country.
by the way “RICH” people do not use our PUBLIC transportation because they think that is for the poor people only. especially those who are used to have cars since birth kids.
By the way you circled your way to Manila Dolomite beach after your coffee shop. The short cut would be just ride a taxi going to Manila Dolomite Beach. And as much as possible do not ride a train around morning (6,7,8am people all going to work) and (4,5,6,7pm people going home). The sunset option is also available for free at the back of Mall of Asia Seaside area that is much open, wide, and clean scenery. I suggest since you were kinda dissapointed, ride the “ferry” at the back of MOA and enjoy the view of both sunset and the hotels and buildings side. Enjoy!
Here at 19.4K subscribers.
All the other foreign vloggers are pretty much doing the same routines except yours. Good job in riding the LRT, that is a FIRST I've seen from vloggers in quite awhile. Keep safe to you and your gf.
I love how you deliver your videos, very informative. You are fastly becoming my favorite vlogger!
Very few vloggers have this quality content. Showing history, nicely done camera panning, music and authentic reactions. Enjoy our beloved country and you are most welcome to stay for life 👍🏽
Your choice for breakfast location and dish was spot-on (few locals know that place), Pork Ribs Adobo is delightful. Must try Beef Kaldereta (beef in tomato sauce stew), Kare-kare (tripes on peanut sauce), and Sinigang (similar to Tom Yang Goon if I spell it right), Bicol Express (Taro Leaves with Pork and Chili), and Sisig (pork face and brain served with egg, mayo, calamansi on a sizzling plate) . You guys went North instead of South when you were in LRT, don't worry experience makes you wiser😁. Best route from Binondo to Manila Bay is via Taxi since the route is at the edge of Manila Bay, plus it's cheaper if you do that. The tricycle rate is high even for locals. I'm looking forward for your adventures as you keep on surprising me of what you do next, hugs to both and always have a safe journey in the street of Manila.. BTW, look for Cafe Adriatico, hint hint
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an informative comment! I’ve taken quite a few notes and will try out some of the suggestions you mentioned :)
Wow, I'm impressed that you really rode the train. The majority of foreigners do not. It's very unfortunate that you missed the sunset. Perhaps next time. I'm looking forward to your next vlog. Excellent work!
Great contents. Not skipping ads for you brother..😊
Wow.. Thumps up! You did a great job.. Godbless you 🙏🙏🙏
I myself from philippines but haven" ride LRT since 2019 even i did i came back last feb-mar vacation so good for you to be able to experience it
It’s Friday, so it’s Quiapo day (the area with a lot of people).. so it’s really stressful to go then… especially the LRT1 route..
LRT1 have different entrance so be careful.. but LRT2 and MRT3 have connected platforms so if you went on the wrong direction, you can just hop off and transfer to other direction, no additional charge..
…
But when strict for time, just do Grab/GrabTaxi.. because the railways-landmarks aren’t that connected yet..
…
And part of the adventure is getting lost a bit and then finding your way, so don’t sweat that.. The sunset is always beautiful any day.. You can go to SM MoA and tour it whole day then spend the sunset at By the Bay.. or at the bar at Conrad if you’re feeling fancy…
More power to you and more subscribers to come,explore and discover more about Philippines it is a lot of fun in here...
Awesome vlog very informative and great videography. Keep it up. Enjoy ur stay here in Phil.
