I just wanna take the time and thank each and everyone of you guys for the warm welcome and kind words
Welcome to my country sir❤
esl, English As Secondary language, school as early as kindergarden teaches English, the reason why mostly all pinoys can speak English. You got a new pinoy subscriber, enjoy your stay.🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you 🙏
I appreciate you!
We are thankful for visiting Philippines ❤❤❤ have a safe staying Philippines
I just moved to manila from the US. New Jersey to be exact. I’ve been out here for a few weeks now I love it. The people here are so nice and welcome you with open arms.
Love your family vlog channel 🎉
Ahhh you're living the dream bro, enjoy! 👊
@@Msfili Thank you so much 💯
True
@@Msfili enjoy
Thank you very for your wonderful compliments about my country, I been in USA for 35 years now and I’m still hearing negative things about the Philippines from those people that never been there 😂😂 I’m glad that some foreigners have time to show our country, the culture and the views and how people treat our visitors 👍thank you and GodBless
It's unfortunate because here in Canada they say a lot of negative as well that it's very dangerous, but I find it quite the opposite, such a fun amazing country to visit
Thanks for visiting here and introducing it to those who had negative thinking about Philippines, it's really amazing if you experience it yourself
Official languages in the Philippines: 1. English
2. Pilipino (a mandatory subject in the school system and used in official communication as part of our Filipino culture).
There are over 170 dialects in the Philippines. Tagalog is the mostly spoken dialect. We have over 7,700 Islands in the Philippines, therefore, we Filipinos have to speak English or else we will have difficulty understanding each other. That is the reason why the mode of education in the Philippines is the use of English in our text books and official newspapers. Mabuhay ang Pilipinas! ( long live the Philippines!!!)
Your energy is beyond normal, filipinos will love you because you know how to interact with the locals. Enjoy explore and have fun. English is our second language and tagalog is our national language.
His energy level is actually very typical of dozens of other American vloggers in Philippines who call everyone, "brother" or "my friend". He needs to stop calling people brother. Try Bro or something that dont make him sound like an evangelist or a mormon who knocks on your door so they can ask you if you want to talk about Jesus.
@@eduardochavacanochill brother 😅😂
@@eduardochavacanobrother or bro is okay it's the same... brother sounds cool to me..
Thank you Marlon!
Give this Vlogger the bests he deserve. He doesn't deserve the rudeness of others here.
it's always special to know that a foreigner appreciates our country. more power to you.
Thank you!
I love the Philippines I own 3 houses in cavite my wife daughters and granddaughter lives there
Hi why?
Hi sir enjoy ❤
The scanner is there for the safety of the customers. You will see that in all the malls and hotels in the Philippines. I guess you heard what happened at the Siam Paragon Mall in Bangkok. The Philippines doesn’t want that to happen at public places. Enjoy your stay in this beautiful country. You will love it!
Very interesting! Good security!
The scanners have absolutely nothing to do with that very ISOLATED case that happened in Bangkok. Filipinos always try to create trivia from thin air to have something to say to foreigners. Everything including a scanner needs to have a backstory with the obvious subtext that Thailand is dangerous, an idea borne out of insecurities. Thailand is the Queen of Tourism in Southeast Asia, learn from their example, rather than resort to mud slinging.
Your energy is contagious. You will enjoy here because you know how to interact with the locals.
They are amazing!
Welcome to the Philippines , where everyone is amazingly nice and hospitable.
Watching from London. It's amazing how you interact with the locals. I'm pretty sure Filipinos will love and embrace you. Enjoy your stay in the beautiful Philippines.
English is our second language. It is taught in school -- from kindergarten until college. All textbooks used in our schools and universities are in English. Teachers and professors also use English when teaching in their classes. Except of course when the subject being taught is Filipino language, then the Filipino dialect is used in class.
As far as I know English is the medium of instruction in PH schools its not considered a foreign language separate from other subjects in spite of it being so Filipinos in general are far from being fluent at it
English is our second language but majority of us are illiterate and doesn't speak English
@@Jonases_20 naman naman majority talaga ng filipinos are illiterate?! Pagsure oi!😆
@@pingyu5141 e totoo naman e. Daming mangmang sa pinas dahil di nakapag aral
@@Jonases_20 OVER haha! Ang OA naman majority talaga!😄
PK, you're the kind of person who will be loved and embraced by Filipinos... because you are very open, outgoing, and positive. Welcome to my country. Although im also an American, I go home to the Philippines every year, because it is amazing to be home... You're an awesome person. I wish you all the best in your journey!
I appreciate you brother
You are so energetic, friendly and respectful. I wish you good vacation or whatever you will be doing, enjoy every minute of your stay
Welcome in our warm country Philippines . Enjoy your tour . God bless you 🎉
Welcome to the Philippines 🇵🇭 thanks for coming just relax and enjoy the natural beauty of the phil.island
'Kumusta ka'(How are you doing?) is for one person. 'Kumusta kayo'(How are you guys doing?) is for a group.
Happy trip bro! Keep up the high spirit. 🤙🏼
Thank you!
Thank you
English is taught in schools because the Philippines used to be under American rule from 1898 until 1946. Even when the Philippines gained independence in 1946, English remained in the school curriculum and has become one of the official languages in the Philippines.
Beautiful Philippines! I’ll be there again soon! Have fun!
You're a friendly and amiable vlogger so Filipinos will surely take to you. Filipinos speak English because it is taught in school. Enjoy our beloved country. New subscriber here.
Everyone's super friendly
Thanks for coming to my country, God bless you sir....
You're amazing and friendly. Welcome to our country and experience the hospitality of the Filipino people. Enjoy and keep safe always 😊 God bless you sir for promoting our country.❤😊
A month stay in my country is quiet a worth for your channel. Since you just started your channel go around the rural areas and explore the beauty of nature. Welcome to the Philippines. Take care and God bless. Watching from California.
Welcome to the Philippines. I'm a Filipino but has been in Houston for the last 40 years. The reason for the scanner in mall is for safety to all Filipinos. Guns or knives are illegal in any malls. Safety is very important. We are not rich people but extremely happy. When I came to Houston that is when I stop smiling. People in the USA are just overstressed.
Americans are extremely materialistic.
I could not agree more. I live in Chicago for 8 years now and I’m planning to go back home and retire for good. America is a stressful country.
I miss philippines too .
So much about Bangkok, Singapore, Bali or even Hong Kong..
You will discover this beautiful exotic islands paradise of the Philippines! Enjoying your amazing discovery!
🙏🙏
Welcome to the Philippines, enjoy your stay and explore Manila and some provinces nearby too! Mabuhay!

I subscribed by the way, and it seems your channel will fly in a few more weeks the way you vlog, interact, etc. So, guys let's make this guy a new resident vlogger here haha. Cheers, bro! Btw, to your question on why Filipinos speak pretty good English? Because PH was a former U.S. territory and almost became the US state in the Pacific before WW2. American influence here is massive, from brand, culture, basketball, fast food, education, etc. name it. Badly, the Spanish culture of corruption remains in the govt that's why the public sector is still slow, while at least the private sector's effort to uplift the economy is fast. So sooner we'll get there again in a better economic status just like in our heydays in the 60s being the other 1st world nation after Japan in East Asia region.
Well said Darwin.I like your thought about our country.I am also a new subscriber.
@@henryferdinandandoyo3474 Thanks bro,
govt should realize the importance of becoming at least a light industrial nation similar to our neighbors Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand, it boosts their economy a lot in revenue in exports, things which have been lacking for the past 28 years. We need to balance our export vs import, and we need to have some state-owned corporation - industrial manufacturing, that would provide thousands of jobs among our professionals and labor force and would create a new entity brand that is PH-made. You can't go wrong on that, similar to how South Korea, Taiwan, China, etc. made their brands that became a game changer in their economy. All of those brand/exports sold globally provides revenue in taxes to their national income, things that our country is zero to begin with, we are stocked in OFW mentality more than creating industry inside. Hehe, believe me, no president so far has that vision sad to say. We never hardly try that one to be the agenda of any administration...
Thanks for appreciating Philippines and its people. Maligayang pagdating/Mabuhay (Welcome)! Enjoy your stay here but also take a little extra careful too. There are crooks anywhere in the world. But overall, you'll be in for so much fun here. Good luck and God bless🙏❤️
I'm Vicky and a Filipina. I love and support Vloggers who learn to love my country. I love your energy. May God continue to bless ur channel. Be blessed wherever you go. You know There's a lot of Filipinos out there who are willing to help u foreigners and their fellow Filipinos who are in the streets and in need of help. I have proven that in my own experiences. And I'm proud to be raised in a Filipino culture. Mabuhay ka kumpadre!
that is why having umbrella handy is actually a thing here in the Philippines, bcoz our weather here is kinda unpredictable 😁😂!But do enjoy your stay❤️

Because English language is our second language aside from Filipino language. And teaches in schools here starting from formative years up to College. English language is also use in teaching here. And in Southeast Asia Philippines is one of the most English speaking country. Thats why almost all the Filipinos are good in communicating using English language. God bless you and enjiy your stay here.🤍🙏
And yet we required to take english exams going to English speaking countries
@@thevincii-javo5355 You're right
Thank you Mary!
@@marysuzettecatipon6147 As far as I know English is the medium of instruction in PH schools its not considered a foreign language separate from other subjects All PH official documents prop. titles O.R.'s & The PH Constitution are in English in spite of it being so Filipinos in general are far from being fluent at it You Filipinos forever mimic & imitate American ways I advice you to try harder don't get confused PH is not a USA State its a very bad & cheap imitation of it
@@thevincii-javo5355 Not true
The Philippines was a former territory and colony (19898-1946) of the US just like Puerto Rico or Guam. When the US was building an empire in the Pacific in the 19th century, the islands were part of the benevolent assimilation policy which aimed to assimilate Filipinos to American life and society similar to what was pursued to the natives of Hawaii and Alaska. Hence you have the vast majority of Filipinos speaking fluent English. Though full assimilation was not achieved, the overwhelming majority of the population adopted English as a second language and most of them continue to speak it until this day as English was maintained as an official language of government, business, education and media up to this day. Even today, so many Americans do not seem to be aware of this and are so puzzled as to why they meet Filipinos who speak fluent English. 😊
As far as I know English is the medium of instruction in PH schools in spite of it being so Filipinos in general are far from being fluent at it You Filipinos forever love to imitate & mimic American ways I advice you to try harder don't get confused PH is not a USA State its a very bad & cheap imitation of it
Thank you for the info :)

Have lots of fun bro!
another new youtuber to watch,, safe travels dude and enjoy Philippines, one of my favorite country which i always visit, go to BGC, MAKATI and ORTIGAS if ur staying in the Metro, always bring an umbrella with u, for sunny days and rainy days, it is a must, locals do it, good luck man
Thank you Gil!
First the blue train - yes its the MRT. 2nd - the separate entrance only applies in megamall, unsure why but in other malls its not. The scanner applies to all mall or there will be a guard to check your stuff for safety. Megamall, Mall of Asia, SM North. Massive malls in Manila. Almost all people know how to speak or understand english, that is our secondary language and subject in school since we are little. That is why almost all people in the Metro will understand you. Filipinos are welcoming and always help you in the littlest way. But there are still that will take advantage every now and then so please be careful. Lastly, I think that you’ll be amazed of how Philippines is beautiful. Enjoy your stay Sir! 🫰
Thank you sir for your good impression and visiting our country the Philippines God bless!Mabuhay ka po
