Easily one of the best vlogs done by foreign tourists about the Philippines. The Bayanihan commentary was such a good piece. We appreciate you. PS. This vlog is very reminiscent of Anthony Bourdain's travel documentaries.
I watched it three times and very enjoyed it. We are planning to do a four weeks vacation this December, probably similar route as yours. Thank you for sharing.
Speaking as a Filipino, the irony of not wanting to pay official tourist prices and putting together your own tour for a more affordable price…is very Filipino 😂 Love your channel and especially love this vlog!
I can't believe I watched and finished a 2hr+ long travel vlog on TH-cam for the 1st time. Thank you for featuring my country. All the best to you guys, Lisa & Josh.
Awww I just finished watching. Took me two days because of so many distractions from fam. The ending about bayanihan made me teary eyed. The fact you even know about bayanihan tells me how much you took the time to get to know our culture and respect it. Much love from a Filipina in Hawaii. Time to go home! Love your vlog! My phone suggested you after I watched your New Zealand vlog!
Okay... we just bought tickets to Manila and started perusing youtube videos and after watching obnoxiously beautiful people and dorky awkward people we came across your video. I said to my husband, "I'ts a long video. Let's just watch the beginning." We couldn't stop watching! You do such a great job filming, editing, sound and music background. Josh, you are so funny and Lisa you are like sunshine. We are more excited about visiting the Philippines after watching. Next up we will be watching your Vietnam video! Thanks for all your work and sharing your experiences.
I've said it once and I'll say it again, you two have one of the best travel channels on TH-cam at the moment! The long form videos set you apart from the rest and your editing and capturing the charm of the places you travel is fantastic. Keep it going
I love this vlog. There's so many priceless moments that are so genuine that kept me watching for over 2 hours. Your chemistry is so in sync and your tempo are so balanced that it adds to the entertainment factor. My favorite moment was the 720 step hike to watch the sunset and the very talented singer Darius serenading the crowd. Gave me goosebumps.
Traveling the Philippines can be exhausting primarily because of transportation and weather; but the hospitality of the Filipino people is something you can’t see elsewhere! Really love this! ❤ cant wait to go back
I cannot believe i just finished a two hour youtube video. It is this good. I usually have 5 min tolerance. The storytelling, genuineness, and spontaneity of this adventure got me ❤
the hate for Manila is absolutely blown out of proportion, the pickpockets, the slums, and the hectic areas is NOT found in the ENTIRE Manila. Manila is huge and for some reason, people saw a tiny speck of negative in one place and for some reason generalized it for the entire city even though that's not the case at all
Not only that many from other local regions chiming in the smear campaign just to promote theirs. It’s also iffy hearing uninformed foreigners who haven’t even seen the metro’s entirety or what it has to offer doing the same.
Everybody in the world needs Jesus. Jeremiah 17:9, Romans 3:23, John 3:16-21, John 14:6 and Romans 10:13 are some good verses to check out on the issues.
as a foreigner ive lived in manila for almost 3 months on and off in various locations across the city (only 1 night in makati and bgc, so i havent just stayed in that bubble). the traffic is a nightmare, and yes there are some pretty run down areas, but ive never had a problem and am looking forward to my next 2 months. its definitely great to get out to the islands and go proper holidaying, but manila is a great base of operations.
Lisa and Josh, I’ve been watching your videos for years and I’ve never posted a comment until now. In fact, I very rarely post comments on ANY videos. However, this video is absolutely your best one so far! Josh, your sense of humor is Netflix worthy! I seriously haven’t laughed this much watching a travel video, well, ever! Well friggin done brother! Great editing as well! You two are really starting to put out some professional quality work, not that it was bad before, but you are definitely setting the bar for future travel TH-camrs! Well done, keep doing what you’re doing, and keep enjoying this amazing life! #Chickens
This is definitely my husbands and I favorite travel channel! We love seeing how much love there is between you both and that you both enjoy the small things in life! You guys are awesome and makes us want to travel together!
That was one of the best travel vlog I have ever seen. I had no idea how beautiful the Philippines is. You guys really rock travelling. Thank you for bringing the rest of the world closer. Cheers, Muffy from Oz.(Australia)
I salute you Lisa and Josh for riding with the chickens, I am a Filipino and I haven't even experienced that 😊 what a great content, thank you for visiting our country and for showcasing the hospitality of the Filipinos and the "Bayanihan" spirit that we are known for. Salamat Lisa and Josh - Love, The Philippines🇵🇭💜
I usually have a hard time watching YT vids in one-go but this video, even though it's more than 2 hours made me finish without pausing the video. I love how you guys travel and how you appreciate the things the place has to offer. I wish your channel would grow more and deserve all the goods things you guys have. P.S. Don't break her heart.
I am in tears with the outro!!! The PEOPLE!!! This was so moving and so beautiful the whole video made me so happy and I cannot wait to someday visit my families country! SALAMAT YOU beautiful couple!!!🙏👏❤️
Guys 🥹 I've been following you for months now and been watching your series of 3 days in... but THIS IS MY FAVORITE! Not only because I am Filipino and but also because I AM FILIPINO and I love how you guys appreciate what Filipinos do everyday, hospitable Filipinos who try to give a little extra without any expectations of return. We just feel better helping and caring ❤ Looking forward to your next adventure! I am based in Dubai, UAE and would be honored to host you here! 🤍🇦🇪
Mabuhay! You're finally here!!!! Started watching because I was preggy and couldn't travel anymore and now I am holding my almost 2 year old as we both watch this. Time flies! :(
Yay! Finally Lisa and Josh in the Philippines! I will finally have someone to follow when I take my fam there. I’ve been wanting to take my kids to the motherland but it’s been forever and a lot has changed. Thank you for being our guides!
Ive been watching your travel vlogs and traveling vicariously through you two. After all these vids i always wondered why you hadn't visited the Philippines yet. I thought it would be perfect for you type of vlogs and now youve visited. Hope you guy come again and visit more of the country. In terms of tropical and beachy places in the world the Philippines can go toe to toe with everyone
Josh’s happy shoulder dance after eating spring onion pancake…hilarious🤣 Lisa,Josh…thank you, it was a joy to watch and felt right there with you. What a gift.
Did I watch your vlog for 2 hours? So nice to see your adventures in the Philippines. Lisa and Josh, please come back soon and stay longer in the Philippines. Looking forward to your new adventures! ❤❤❤
Lisa n Josh, I've followed you since I came across to your camino vlogs. Thanks for being adventurous n still considered visiting my country, the Philippines inspite of the warnings you received. I think you visited Manila at the start of a major Catholic event, the Holy Week, chose destinations off the beaten track n experienced Filipino hospitality. Sweet potatoes were used in Max’s fries. I hope you consider visiting other destinations in the Philippines like Batanes, surfing in La Union or Baler & the rice terraces of the Cordilleras in Luzon, the beaches of Bohol & Negros & the festivals in Camiguin, Davao n Iloilo.
Thank you for showing and appreciating the simple and mundane (including cool) things of the Philippines 🇵🇭 it’s about keeping it real. You guys rock! 😊
My wife and I watched your videos to get some ideas for our asian tour, like the one in Vietnam. I kind of forgot how beautiful really is my country cause the daily grind made me overlook the warm and hospitable traits of Filipinos. Thanks for shining light on some of our best qualities. Salamat! You just convinced me to on explore my own country more.
The anniversary surprise was so sweet!!! For people who works hard for our money & we keep on a budget for everything and rarely treat ourselves, I almost teared up by her genuine reaction and being excited about everything
Love this I’m gonna start following you two I have fun watching. My family left Davao in 1978 I never been back and no desire until I watched your UTube and Travel Scape. I use to visit Palawan when it was just nothing it was a forbidden no one hardly went there but seems like it change. Thank you
Only just watched this but definitely one of the best vlogs I've seen on the Philippines. Thanks for sharing the very highs the lows and the realisations along the way .
Thank you for this. I never realized how much more there is to the Phillippines beyond Manila, and how beautiful it all is. And I like your new philosophy of not being quite so DIY as you plan your trip.
Oh gosh oh gosh! My husband and I was just rewatching your Bangkok vlog the other day and I said when are they coming to the Philippines? OMG will watch this tonight!!!! (Been binge watching your travels as what you're doing is definitely my goals)
This is one of the longest vlogs I have ever watched and I never skipped. Simple, detailed and everything I wanted to see. Very humble couple. Keep going. Hope you can come back to PH soon!
Omygoodness!! I've been an avid follower ever since and now you've finally visited my hometown! The best treat from a Filipino who's living in US. Mabuhay!
I have no idea how I fell into this video and despite that it's a long one, I also don't know how I got hooked along the way. But it's totally worth it. The narration at the end where that American guy said his final piece about the Bayanihan experience was truly touching. It moved me incredibly😢 . I didn't expect I'd enjoy this one, it is so down to earth, full of positive vibes, and Lisa's smile and appreciative attitude despite the odds gave this story worthy of my respect and appreciation too. 😊 You both have done a very good job on this trip, not luxurious but time spent is so rich with all the wonderful experience in the beauty of the Philippines. Well done! God bless you both! 💚
Love El Nido ♥️ friendliest people we ever met ♥️ Love ur vlogs 🤩 Tokyo was our fav Ps: airswift is worth the money. We booked ours like 8 months in advance for our trip. To and from Manila
Wow! This deserves more views! I love everything about this video. Good job you two! it was obvious how much work was put to edit this. I love the narration, the background music , the feel.. and it made me even teary eyed towards the end. I'm happy you enjoyed your stay in the Phils! Come back soon, so much more to see❤
Just finished the whole video…started the first half at midnight and had to cut it short because I realized I wanna watch the whole thing with my wife. Thank you for sharing the off-beaten paths with your travel videos instead of the usual tourist stuff. This is my type of traveling because in my opinion you really do get to experience the world this way…especially meeting the locals. Thank you for the kind words about Filipino locals. I will make sure my kids watch this as well because it made my heart swell, and I want them to see the kind of people we are. Also, you guys deserve more subscribers than you have, and I’m sure you will soon because Filipinos especially the ones in the Philippines are the Social Media masters of the world 😂. Be ready to get more followers 🤙🏻 I’m curious though, would you guys come back to the Philippines just like you do with Japan?
This was an absolute joy to watch. We were glued to the whole thing and will be taking a trip as soon as we can. Love your longer formats and the way you guys travel. So good!
This is by far the most entertaining, enjoyable, and educational travel blog I have watched. I want to follow your itinerary when I go visit Palawan. Thank you, it is such a blessing
Congratulations to me!! I finished this 2:19:16 video. The only travel blog this long. I find your video simply interesting and honest. Thanks for the tips😊❤️
Lovely video as always! I'm going to be travelling the Philippines soon and coincidentally it looks like I'll end up in Manila on my birthday. I've been googling around looking for something special to do but after watching this video I think I can just trust I'm going to have a great time. Really looking forward to Intramuros and hopefully making some local friends :)
@Lisa and Josh, I really appreciate watching your travel videos. You keep it real and both of you are so down to earth. Thank you for your videos. y'all are awesome🙂
Another highly entertaining and interesting video. Your obvious love for one another and your ease in front of the camera makes you extremely watchable. I'd never considered The Philippines as a vacation destination before, but this insight has got me adding the area to my bucket list.
I love the spontaneity!!! I’m from PH and have traveled around! If you’re on a budget, it’s better to book your flights ahead of time and two weeks could be easily spent in the islands of Palawan. I’m still to continue watching your journey to Manila. Really enjoying the rawness of you guys! 😘🥰
Just a fun fact: the bread Liza ate at the beach with a purple filling is what we Filipinos call 'kalihim' (lihim means secret in English) because of its surprise filing inside. It also comes with a pink filling, and my kids love it. And Dan ate buchi, with red bean paste in the middle, not doughnut 😊 I'm glad you both enjoyed your trip to the Philippines. The way you travel is amazingly raw and informative, perfect for viewers who plan to travel but are still skeptical. Mabuhay and thank you 🇵🇭 visit us again
Hope you guys have enjoyed your short two weeks stay in The Philippines. I really missed my homeland. Hope to retire there soon. God bless. Watching from The USA.
Wauw Lisa and Josh, I always look out for your videos and now I know why. It's because they make me feel happy and alive. Thank you for bringing joy to my life. From the Netherlands.
Another great docu! Glad you experience El nido island, Manila’s top experiences: Legazpi Sunday Market, Binondo, Intramuros BUT as a Filipino, I’m sad you didn’t experience Coron’s island hopping: for me it’s the best underwater and the Kayangan lake is world class. I sure hope you come back! Sorry about the food poisoning. Perfect narration at the end, you certainly capture the Bayanihan spirit! Happy to welcome you back here anytime! 🇵🇭💕
The Bayanihan made me teary eyed.. been traveling outside and imagining a life overseas forgetting what i already have in the Philippines.. the homie feeling and the kindness of my people.. it made me realised how we are as a people.. how we always want to reach out and help.. how our parents thought us and showed us how we should welcome and make our guest feel at home.. THANKS FOR THIS REMINDER ❤ i wanna go back home 😢
It’s been a while since my wife and I watched through an entire 2 hour vlog and it feels like a refreshing break from all the short form videos that we’ve been consuming. We sincerely love how authentic and sincere you guys are and being Filipinos ourselves, we felt this is one of the most honest and closest depiction of what Manila and the Philippines truly is. Beyond all the negative things we see and hear about our country is nice that some people chose to show the good and beautiful side of this country. So happy how you guys were able to capture the hearts and mind of the Filipino people and how much are such a welcoming nation :) continue to make wonderful and real vlogs and i love your long form videos. Please keep it up! :)
Yey, you guys made it to my home country the Philippines 🇵🇭. I hope you enjoyed yourselves and that you got home safely. You guys are my favorite couple blogger and I love that you guys are so patient with everything you do in your travel blog.
2 hours vlog... didn't skip a second of it. So fun, so beautiful. SO want to go. Thanks for taking us on this amazing journey of your's. Keep happy safe tripping 🙏🩷
When I saw this video was two hours and 20 minutes. I thought we were both insane. You for making it and me for thinking there was any chance I would watch any two hour TH-cam video. I am halfway in and completely riveted. Will absolutely be watching the whole thing. Better than any Netflix movie.. happy anniversary by the way and you did a good job of surprising her with that beautiful hotel!
I waited for this so long!!!! You guys did a wonderful and honest way of traveling around our county. Loved that you guys showed us how to do it this way. I don’t even know how to even start an itinerary here! Although, you need to slow down and really take it in. Spend more days there. Listen, you have at least 7,000 more islands. lol!!! Have fun! We appreciate you guys!!! -
What a way to showcase the Philippines! ❤ It is very raw and genuine, the best that I have seen so far from foreigners who traveled around there. Thank you very much. I enjoyed this a lot. More power to you guys! ❤
The Philippines is such a diverse and beautiful country, offering countless experiences without needing to spend a fortune. From the stunning white-sand beaches of Boracay to the lush landscapes of Palawan and the vibrant cities like Manila and Cebu, there is so much to explore. The country's affordability means you can enjoy delicious local food, unique cultural experiences, and exciting adventures like island hopping and snorkeling without breaking the bank. Plus, the warmth and hospitality of the Filipino people make every moment feel special. It’s the perfect destination for anyone looking to have an unforgettable adventure on a budget!
Lisa and Josh, thank you for sharing your down to earth and authentic experiences. I’ve watched many of your videos now and they bring such a refreshing experience. You both have a wonderful energy about travelling. Josh, your humour and Lisa, your ability to see the beauty in every moment. Thank you for sharing the world with us! Watching from Melbourne ☕️ P.S. I also hand draw my travel maps 😊
I love how genuine you guys are! I'm amazed by the narration, it made the video more impactful. Thank you for showing Filipino values that I love! This made me wish my husband and I make videos when we were on our honeymoon last year in the Philippines. We bagpacked in there too 😊. I'm a new subscriber, more power to you guys! ❤
Yes, I stuck it out till the end and enjoyed this trip with you. The Philippines is such a different experience and will look to visit there soon! Thanks for sharing
You were able to capture the most beautiful places and your very articulate and positive attitudes, its so refreshing to watch, I really believe your 2 nice souls
I've been watching your vlogs and I appreciate how you always look at the good side of each place that you visit! ❤ I know you enjoyed your trip. I hope you visit other places and try more food in the future! ❤

Thank you for watching! You are from a beautiful country!
Awww I just finished watching. Took me two days because of so many distractions from fam. The ending about bayanihan made me teary eyed. The fact you even know about bayanihan tells me how much you took the time to get to know our culture and respect it. Much love from a Filipina in Hawaii. Time to go home! Love your vlog! My phone suggested you after I watched your New Zealand vlog!
Just like a movie, a box office hit. LOVE YOU, GUYS, and thank you. 🖐🙂❤
Okay... we just bought tickets to Manila and started perusing youtube videos and after watching obnoxiously beautiful people and dorky awkward people we came across your video.

Thank you so so much!! :) just happy to hear it was fun to watch and helpful. You're the best. Have a blast in Manila!!
I've said it once and I'll say it again, you two have one of the best travel channels on TH-cam at the moment! The long form videos set you apart from the rest and your editing and capturing the charm of the places you travel is fantastic. Keep it going
True im so convince Thats why I love I love them , I got all my tips from them when i went to Europe ….

YOU ARE AT THE GOOD AREA OF METRO MANILA …. TOURIST AREA FOR SURE…
Traveling the Philippines can be exhausting primarily because of transportation and weather; but the hospitality of the Filipino people is something you can’t see elsewhere! Really love this! ❤ cant wait to go back
This is how a travel vlog should be. Travel like a local.
Booked my ticket home after watching this. The last narration did the trick, Im crying 🥹🥹

Travelled the Philippines for three weeks last month and my goodness this has me already yearning to go back!

Thank you for not making half the video boring underwater GoPro footage like so many other tropical island vlogs!
This literally was the best vlog I've seen of the Philippines. It was like watching a documentary. Love the Philippines, thanks so much for this!
This is definitely my husbands and I favorite travel channel! We love seeing how much love there is between you both and that you both enjoy the small things in life! You guys are awesome and makes us want to travel together!

I LOVE how long this is and how great the coverage of the country is. Thank you!!
Yay! Finally Lisa and Josh in the Philippines!
I will finally have someone to follow when I take my fam there. I’ve been wanting to take my kids to the motherland but it’s been forever and a lot has changed.
Thank you for being our guides!
I agree with most commenters here. Indeed , one of the best travel blogs out there. Hosts are not irritating and truly enjoyable !

Lisa n Josh, I've followed you since I came across to your camino vlogs.
Thanks for being adventurous n still considered visiting my country, the Philippines inspite of the warnings you received. I think you visited Manila at the start of a major Catholic event, the Holy Week, chose destinations off the beaten track n experienced Filipino hospitality.
Sweet potatoes were used in Max’s fries.
I hope you consider visiting other destinations in the Philippines like Batanes, surfing in La Union or Baler & the rice terraces of the Cordilleras in Luzon, the beaches of Bohol & Negros & the festivals in Camiguin, Davao n Iloilo.
Thank you for showing and appreciating the simple and mundane (including cool) things of the Philippines 🇵🇭 it’s about keeping it real. You guys rock! 😊
Closing narration at the end of the video is absolutely beautiful and tugged on the old heartstrings. Thank you for the wonderful video!
I really appreciate you making a video of the entire trip. Provide a broad perspective of the country. Love the chicken sitting on the bus
This is the best day everrrrr!! Not only a new upload, but an in depth look at our upcoming trip!!
Wow this was such a great video (movie???)!!! I can't imagine how much editing work went into this but the result was worth it. Love you guys!

Shout out to Kindness & Humanity.....thank you for wrapping up the video by appreciating others - ❤❤
In Coron the dog in the beginning literally said “pardon me”, “ you first “ , and “ excuse me “ when you said hi . Even the dogs are polite.
The anniversary surprise was so sweet!!! For people who works hard for our money & we keep on a budget for everything and rarely treat ourselves, I almost teared up by her genuine reaction and being excited about everything

The map drawing 😂😂😂. Am so happy of Lisa's reaction about the bougie hotel. Very nice anniversary surprise. The sunset in Coron❤.
Thank you for choosing Philippines 🇵🇭 to have an exquisite and unforgettable experience... just enjoy life & GOD bless u both ❤️❤️❤️

This is by far the most entertaining, enjoyable, and educational travel blog I have watched. I want to follow your itinerary when I go visit Palawan. Thank you, it is such a blessing
Loved every second of this 2 hour plus video. Great work! I can’t imagine the editing that went into making this 😮❤
Thanks a lot. Now I know that 2 hours and 19 minutes of my weekend will spontaneously go missing. Best travel vloggers on the platform!
Congratulations to me!! I finished this 2:19:16 video. The only travel blog this long. I find your video simply interesting and honest. Thanks for the tips😊❤️
I listen to/watch tons of travel content. But there is something special about your guys. You two are doing good work keep it up.
I feel so happy that you get to enjoy and indulge! Please stop being guilty for enjoying the best things in life. You definitely deserve it!
Thank you for the kind words about Filipinos. This video hooked me and my husband for 2 hours 😀
Lovely video as always! I'm going to be travelling the Philippines soon and coincidentally it looks like I'll end up in Manila on my birthday. I've been googling around looking for something special to do but after watching this video I think I can just trust I'm going to have a great time. Really looking forward to Intramuros and hopefully making some local friends :)
@Lisa and Josh, I really appreciate watching your travel videos. You keep it real and both of you are so down to earth. Thank you for your videos. y'all are awesome🙂
Subscribed! Thank you guys for visiting the philippines. You guys are always welcome here😇👌❤️
Another highly entertaining and interesting video. Your obvious love for one another and your ease in front of the camera makes you extremely watchable. I'd never considered The Philippines as a vacation destination before, but this insight has got me adding the area to my bucket list.
Adding the Philippines to my bucket list! great video as always 🥰
Happy anniversary ❤ Lisa has the most beautiful smile and true joy that is contagious. This episode is extra enjoyable to watch.
What a pleasantly surprised! I thought u guys would be sqaureville! Thank U for good time! I might even subscribe!
I subscribed already
I love the spontaneity!!! I’m from PH and have traveled around! If you’re on a budget, it’s better to book your flights ahead of time and two weeks could be easily spent in the islands of Palawan. I’m still to continue watching your journey to Manila. Really enjoying the rawness of you guys! 😘🥰
I love the ending!!!!!
Love travel docus like these! You did it so well. 👏🏼
Don't forget to say "Salamat po!"to the driver. It's thanking them for the journey.
Just a fun fact: the bread Liza ate at the beach with a purple filling is what we Filipinos call 'kalihim' (lihim means secret in English) because of its surprise filing inside. It also comes with a pink filling, and my kids love it. And Dan ate buchi, with red bean paste in the middle, not doughnut 😊
I'm glad you both enjoyed your trip to the Philippines. The way you travel is amazingly raw and informative, perfect for viewers who plan to travel but are still skeptical. Mabuhay and thank you 🇵🇭 visit us again
Hope you guys have enjoyed your short two weeks stay in The Philippines. I really missed my homeland. Hope to retire there soon. God bless. Watching from The USA.
I love binging you guy’s vlogs especially when they’re this long!
Wauw Lisa and Josh, I always look out for your videos and now I know why. It's because they make me feel happy and alive. Thank you for bringing joy to my life. From the Netherlands.
WOW! just WOW! that was AMAZING! Thank you for sharing this wonderful trip!
Another great docu! Glad you experience El nido island, Manila’s top experiences: Legazpi Sunday Market, Binondo, Intramuros BUT as a Filipino, I’m sad you didn’t experience Coron’s island hopping: for me it’s the best underwater and the Kayangan lake is world class. I sure hope you come back! Sorry about the food poisoning. Perfect narration at the end, you certainly capture the Bayanihan spirit! Happy to welcome you back here anytime! 🇵🇭💕
The Bayanihan made me teary eyed.. been traveling outside and imagining a life overseas forgetting what i already have in the Philippines.. the homie feeling and the kindness of my people.. it made me realised how we are as a people.. how we always want to reach out and help.. how our parents thought us and showed us how we should welcome and make our guest feel at home.. THANKS FOR THIS REMINDER ❤ i wanna go back home 😢
It’s been a while since my wife and I watched through an entire 2 hour vlog and it feels like a refreshing break from all the short form videos that we’ve been consuming. We sincerely love how authentic and sincere you guys are and being Filipinos ourselves, we felt this is one of the most honest and closest depiction of what Manila and the Philippines truly is. Beyond all the negative things we see and hear about our country is nice that some people chose to show the good and beautiful side of this country. So happy how you guys were able to capture the hearts and mind of the Filipino people and how much are such a welcoming nation :) continue to make wonderful and real vlogs and i love your long form videos. Please keep it up! :)
I just started watching you guys and am now hooked! I was excited to see your Punahou shirt, Lisa! I was Class of ‘97!!
Yey, you guys made it to my home country the Philippines 🇵🇭. I hope you enjoyed yourselves and that you got home safely. You guys are my favorite couple blogger and I love that you guys are so patient with everything you do in your travel blog.
I just finished the whole 2 hr vlog! and I was teary eyed by the outro. I'm glad you had a great time in the Philippines!
2 hours vlog... didn't skip a second of it. So fun, so beautiful. SO want to go. Thanks for taking us on this amazing journey of your's. Keep happy safe tripping 🙏🩷
When I saw this video was two hours and 20 minutes. I thought we were both insane. You for making it and me for thinking there was any chance I would watch any two hour TH-cam video. I am halfway in and completely riveted. Will absolutely be watching the whole thing. Better than any Netflix movie.. happy anniversary by the way and you did a good job of surprising her with that beautiful hotel!
I finished the video...all the way to the end!!! Thanks, Josh & Lisa!!!!!!
btw, Happy anniversary!!!
Love it! and what a fabulous Anniversary surprise! ❤❤
I waited for this so long!!!!
You guys did a wonderful and honest way of traveling around our county.
Loved that you guys showed us how to do it this way. I don’t even know how to even start an itinerary here!
Although, you need to slow down and really take it in. Spend more days there.
Listen, you have at least 7,000 more islands. lol!!!
Have fun!
We appreciate you guys!!! -
My fave travel vloggers in my beloved country Thank you for visiting and I hope you will be back😍
What a way to showcase the Philippines! ❤ It is very raw and genuine, the best that I have seen so far from foreigners who traveled around there. Thank you very much. I enjoyed this a lot. More power to you guys! ❤
The Philippines is such a diverse and beautiful country, offering countless experiences without needing to spend a fortune. From the stunning white-sand beaches of Boracay to the lush landscapes of Palawan and the vibrant cities like Manila and Cebu, there is so much to explore. The country's affordability means you can enjoy delicious local food, unique cultural experiences, and exciting adventures like island hopping and snorkeling without breaking the bank. Plus, the warmth and hospitality of the Filipino people make every moment feel special. It’s the perfect destination for anyone looking to have an unforgettable adventure on a budget!
