Thursday, November 9, 2023 ☁⛅☁ Well, that was rude. 😕 For some people, high school never ends. 🏫🌳 You must be one of those fat, gamer boys with no social life and, obviously, poor social skills. 🙁 Is there a bottle of Mountain Dew on your desk? 😅 Chika chika, it's the first time I saw that one. I suggest you stick to English. 👩🏫 .
Its so relaxing after a hectic day on the hamster wheel to sit back and view the world through your peaceful and serene eyes its always the little things that matter the most thank you.
I've seen a couple of other travel vloggers review Kookoo's Nest, this place looks like paradise! I did not know about the owners limiting the number of guests, that certainly gives the place a more secluded feel of a true getaway and not another resort crammed with people. Thank you for sharing your experience with us Shay 🙂
The beginning is like a foreign art film that creates a story line that follows. The sound of the waves throughout really put the viewer in the setting. The thought process that goes into the editing Shay is really quite remarkable. I have to admit I watched it more than once. Their dog looks similar to a dog I once had a Belgium Malinois, I love those dogs.
I don't understand why people choose to hate. I thought I was a wonderful video. It affirms the reason it is so important to travel and take care of one's self.
Shay, you’re deep insight into the universe and soothing voice make your videos feel so special, and your gift of turning every day experiences into extraordinary moments, thanks Gordon 😊
Another beautifully produced video Shay! I can't say enough about the quality of your videos! You are a very special find in the saturated world of Vlogging. You really are a film director, not a Vlogger. I feel like I was there too. Thank you for continuing to produce art! Please don't change.
Thank you so much Al for this comment! We will continue to produce what we want to create, and hopefully, you all will continue to want to see these kinds of productions. But to be honest, it is tempting to just do talkie Vlogs, which are so much easier to produce and which we can upload more than we can these time consuming videos. The YT algorithm doesn't care about art, just numbers of views :-(
To feel close to nature in simple surroundings, that's when I know I'm alive. To let time fly ,eat when hungry, and let senses observe , smell and see. Then life is wonderful. So thanks alot for your upload. You nail it again. 😊😊.
Great video, skillfully crafted and artistic! Impeccable editing indeed! I’m sure this place is beautiful in person, but with your skills, I believe you can make any place you visit look beautiful! 😊
So glad you got to share time with your friends at this beautiful resort. Thank you for sharing this time with us. Congratulations on another professional video.
Hi Shay, Once again another video, amazing a place i could stay for good. The ocean, tree surrounding and the breeze. Your so lucky your able to go to places like this. I hope one day im able to visit the Philippines maybe even meet you face to face, who knows.. But again great job with the editing and sharing your time. thank you Mark
Hello to you Reyna Shay🇵🇭❣️😊 Salamat po…for sharing your R&R excursion at the serene KooKoo’s Nest Resort. Definitely, my type of vibe. Not one for city living…congested roadway…combustion filled airways nor crowds when feasible. This for sure will be on my to do list. To hear those waves at night though…Priceless! It makes me contemplate about a quote by: the global spiritual leader Thich Nhat Hanh. So true are his words… “The miracle is not to walk on water. The miracle is to walk on the green earth in the present moment, to appreciate the peace and beauty that are available now.” - Thich Nhat Hanh
Shay you’re so right and what a beautiful resort to regroup we all need this i could live there forever beautiful for the body.mind.n soul my happiness ❤❤❤
Shay , your work just gets better and better , video , narration , editing amazing . ...bravo ... You should re-phrase your title ..nothing cheap about where you were , reasonable might be a better term ...This latest masterpiece was worth the wait .. Nice to see you while enjoying my second cup of coffee ... 😍
Dear Shay, You are just an incredibly talented filmmaker. Your commentary sounds like a poem as well. The Kookoos Nest is another place I would like to visit one day. However, I wonder if I can stand the heat as a „snowman“? Your quality backpack from Switzerland caught my eye in your video 😂😉. Really a good choice, Shay! I hope you will enjoy it for a long time. I send you warm greetings from 🇨🇭, Daniel
Thank you so much Daniel for all the compliments. About the bag, I don't know if it's a counterfeit but I surely love it. It is heavy duty and I can fit all my gears in. :-)
Hi Shay. Awesome video. That looks like a great place to go so quiet and peaceful. I know someone in Saiton and hope to get there soon and get a tour of that area. I love to explore new places whether it be city or countryside but do prefer the countryside over the city. It is good to explore and learn about places. Keep smiling and stay safe
There are many hidden places in Negros that people have not heard of yet. I am yet to explore some of them, but I am torn whether or not I have to broadcast the adventure. I don't want these hidden treasures destroyed by humans.
Watching you and your videos is going to make the 4 month wait before my flight to the Philippines seem an eternity lol. Kookoo seems great maybe I'll go there
To comment would be redundant of the others. Content and editing like no others. I felt like one of your family. I felt I should happily pay for my share of the experience. ❤
@Filipina Shay Travels 🇵🇭 someday Shay. I have SO much to do this year, selling out here then moving there,,, maybe by Christmas time I 'might' have a few days free lol.
I know you try to approach topics intelligently and I saw a podcast from Emily and Todd that was the most netreul and realistic discussion about the movement of men to the phillippines for wives ,by far best discussion I've seen yet on the subject ,if you ever do a video on the subject you should check this out ,it doesn t offend either side just sound discussion
Thank you Steve! Yes, I always try to remain objective (neutral) and mostly talk about things from my personal experiences in life. There are too many biased opinions out there that are not correct. I have talked about this topic before, but we might do a video on it soon. :-)
Awesome vlog again! 10 out of 10. 😊I have never been in Philippines. But I have been a lot of times in Thailand . And this surroundings on your vlog made me miss the simular spots in Thailand. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and happy 🇳🇴
Shay this is a good video and this is a good resort I appreciate the info on this place😎💪 your content getting better keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your reasons why you travel ✈️
Nice travel vid. I think the resort price is comparable to Abnb prices. When I came to Ph, I had dreams of blue water and beautiful beaches. Now that I'm here, it's mainly resort life on worthy beaches. Road travel is nice and unexpected surprises.
@@reflections_with_Shay that is a good price for one. I like how you're efficient with your stay: Met your friends, shared the room, used a scooter, video work, enjoyed, and happiness. That's a big win.
Salamat for sharing 🙏 No, you don't put up walls with people, your a rarity; a Sigma. Solitude, and only meaningful time with people are essential for you 🙏🐺
Thank you for the nice video. My primary reason for moving to the Philippines is surfing daily (2nd is finding a quality lady, #3 is low cost of living) it appears there are no surfing waves on that side of the island??
They do kitesurfing in Siaton. I don't know much about surfboarding, but haven't seen one doing it here. I think the waves aren't just big enough. I am not sure how to explain it in technical terms.
I watched it but I didn't like it. I love drama and chika chika!

Wow, so scenic, wonderful sunrises and sunsets! You are so reflective on everything, so great to witness.
Thank you so much Kent! :-)
Really enjoyed this one Shay! Your videos are always stunning! Looks like an ideal vacation and so close to Nature.
Shay, you’re deep insight into the universe and soothing voice make your videos feel so special, and your gift of turning every day experiences into extraordinary moments, thanks Gordon 😊
Thank you so much Gordon! :-)
Very cool place Shay. That coastline has me intrigued. Look very unique. The rocky shoreline mixed with sand is unlike Duma area.
It is indeed different from Duma, Michael. Siaton has nice white sand beaches. Duma to Zamboangita is the same, I think.
So thoughtful and so articulate a lady - an absolute pleasure to hear her thoughts and comments
Thank you so much! :-)
Kookoo's Nest is absolutely gorgeous! Another great video! Thank you, Shay! ❤ 😊
When you get here, please pay them a visit. It's in the middle of a jungle, away from noises. The only noises you can hear is the wave.
Another beautifully produced video Shay! I can't say enough about the quality of your videos! You are a very special find in the saturated world of Vlogging. You really are a film director, not a Vlogger. I feel like I was there too. Thank you for continuing to produce art! Please don't change.

A very special place. Very entertaining, with great commentary and music. Thank you, Shay🙏🏼✨
Thank you for watching, Jim. I wanted to show a bit of nature to those who don't have the time to explore because they're busy.
Nice video ! Nice view @4:29 ! Looks so peaceful@12:10.........Happy Mothers Day !
It is Greg & Sarah! Happy Mother's Day to you too!
This could be the Maldives...But...It's MORE accessible and reasonable pricing is a bonus...Thanks for the share...

I would love to have the chance to scale the wall...
Knocked it out the park again! Shay.
Thank you George! :-)
As usual, a good vlog. They always take all the stress out of the world.
Thank you Randy!
What a beautiful place, thanks for adding another destination to my list Shay. Unfortunately i would ruin everybody’s sleep with my snoring lol
Oh no! Well, maybe it's okay because the sound of the waves is going to block your snoring. Nobody will hear you. :-D
Looked like a great resort and very peaceful place. Thank you for sharing. 🙂👍👍👍🙏
Thank you Joe! :-)
Shay you’re so right and what a beautiful resort to regroup we all need this i could live there forever beautiful for the body.mind.n soul my happiness ❤❤❤
I hope you can get a chance to also do little adventures like this William. It is indeed good for the soul.

Nice to see you while enjoying my second cup of coffee ... 😍
Thank you Paul! I think for most foreigners, $27/person including food for such a place is cheap. For me, yes reasonable maybe is more accurate :-)
