    Filipino hospitality is best described as a 3-stage process:
    1st stage: YESTERDAY you were a STRANGER;
    2nd stage: TODAY you are a FRIEND;
    3d stage: TOMORROW you will be FAMILY.

    One value foreigners seem to overlook due to the Filipinos being kind, is PATIENCE. Filipinos are very patient oeople. They will go out of their way to welcome guests, especially foreigners. They never tire of answering questions (even silly ones) and always willing to do anything (good things, I mean) to please other people.

    I would like to invite that American guy who described the Philippines as "fun and dangerous" to the latest Global Law and Order Report by Gallup Inc. - a US analytics and consultancy firm based in Washington.
    There were 122 countries covered by this report ranked from safest to least safe country.
    Singapore was ranked no. 1, the safest country in the world. The Philippines came in 30th safest country. If the Philippines is "dangerous", then all the more than 90 countries that were ranked lower than the Philippines are MORE DANGEROUS. The countries ranked lower than the Philippines include France, Hongkong, Croatia, Slovakia, US (41st place) Italy, Germany, UK, Armenia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Thailand (77th place).
    This comment was based on established fact/data generated by highly reliable and trustworthy source.

      I live in US and US is more dangerous than Philippines. Not only crimes, gangbangers but mostly racists. It's a diverse country with different cultures, different beliefs, different religions, and different genders. More haters especially when COVID came. People are more friendly in the Philippines and welcoming foreigners and live foreigners unlike in US they don't like minorities. When minorities are hardworking than their own.

      agree with the outspoken part. unlike other parts of Asian where they try to hide their emotions and real thoughts/feelings about you, filipinos are more upfront and transparent. yes, it can be crass and naive sometimes to overly share what can be perceived as very inappropriate and unsophisticated info, but you can be assured of our thoughts and feelings most of the time. to experience that means you have been accepted into that pinoy’s inner circle which shows their level of comfort with you to have broken down the walls between you.

    The fist guy said about the negative is true. Traffic and internet is a headache. But its getting better for the internet connection in the past few years. Philippines is not heaven there will be negative things you will encounter but life is not perfect, just dont let is consume you, deal with it then let go like most filipinoes. This is the reason why we are positive and happy people, if the world is giving you shit, walk out and find something else that will make you happy.

But his responses and details provided from your queries was very interesting and informative-(especially the FB groups). In my humble opinion…that was the BEST insightful session you had in this Vlog. His experience of visiting back and forth since 2005 and having a Filipina wife to help navigate was most beneficial!

    You seem to love Cebu, bro. The Queen City of the South. Every island is unique, that's the truth. If one has time, one could study the seal of each island. It has meaning and tells you the history and character of a certain place. Cebu for example has the Magellans cross and sea shells in its seal. Bohol have two hands clasped in a handshake. They have meaning, bro. It's easier to know the the island if you study its history. It's in the seal. Crack the code. 😊

      Cebu City is compacted City, it has no place to expand cause it is located beside the mountains and along Shores which is similar to Hongkong that is why industrial area, Residential area, Commercial area are mixed together due to lack of place to expand.
      But, take note Cebu City is first City of the Philippines, it was the Capital of the Philippines long ago.
      Cebu is a Central Products Trading place in Southern Philippines and THE MOST OF HISTORIES IN THE PHILIPPINES it started in Cebu.

    I like the Filipino people. We get along very well. My one word decription is "HOT". I stay indoors as much as possible when I am there, either at home or in some a/c mall. My wife was born in the Philippines and now just vists her relatives and sometimes get togethers with old friends.

    • @antoniettesaab1755

      The Philippines is hot, but not as HOT as the state of Florida, cause Florida is extremely hot and humid, way too hot, on summer months. At least, the Filipinos still have an option to go to Baguio City or Tagaytay, to cool and freshen themselves up, as Baguio is the summer capital of the Philippines, if they want to. Or better yet, have the AC on in their homes, or go to air-conditioned huge malls, for as long as they want, as there are benches to sit on.... That's how great the Philippines still is.🇵🇭

      @@antoniettesaab1755 You're right and that is what I do when I am there. Stay in A/C home or a mall . My other option is to let my wife visit by herself and I stay home in So Cal.

    I hope the government will open up 100 percent to foreigners to build businesses in the Philippines that do not need Filipino partners..so that foreigners who want to retire in the country can still do business and make money while enjoying the Philippines.

      I guess they will never do that coz they don't want to uplift the lives of the people so they can always dictate and bribe them come election time. One thing more they are building family dynasty so they can be more powerful so they can cling on to their power

      It is a contentious subject. I will have to agree to 100% foreign ownership as long as a certain percentage of the employees are still Filipinos. I think that is one way to reduce unemployment and consequently poverty.

    If you are from rich countries the culture and traditions of the philippines are totally different and we always say about no country is perfect ofcourse but there is a country we can say almost into perfect like best healthcare and almost zero crimes and you can trust locals coz the law enforcement are strict so people always follows ..that is very different in the philippines majority of the people are only friendly into foreigners but if you are locals its different and even the locals dont trust each other like if you are lost somewhere they will look at you from head to foot coz maybe you are not good people..wtf..2 faces and if you are foreigners they will entertained you like a rockstar...i love the way that american guy with sunglass for being honest

    As I watch your vlog , I’m learning from the people you interviewed. Like for instance Eric, the guy from Massachusetts , he mentioned fiber optics. AT&T is now busy installing the optical fibers in California. Out of curiosity after I heard Eric mentioning it, I researched.It’s amazing how fast technology is changing the mode of communications. Too complicated for ordinary consumer like me to understand on how technology transmits information as light pulses along the glass or plastic fibers. My brother said it’s for 5G. Isn’t it dangerous? Some researchers said it may cause cancer if you’re within the vicinity of the transformers. God forbids, this might endanger humanity.
