    Returning OFW's (Overseas Filipino Workers) and foreigners that are coming to live in the Philippines are always trying to figure out what the lifestyle is like over on these golden islands. We always try to share our favourite tips and opinions on the lifestyle here on Siargao and other parts of the Philippines too. Postage is a big part of that! Especially when you are trying to bring valuable things to the 7000 remote islands of this beautiful country. The last thing you want is for your things to go missing.
    We've been using ShippingCart.com to buy and bring things from the UK & USA to our doorstep for over 4 years and it's definitely one of the best services we've found online. It's a bit like Balikbayan boxes but without any of the hassle of packing it personally. And the best bit is that it arrives at your door insured, passes customs and taxes are all sorted out for you.
    Anyway, we thought it was a good time to share our experience with Shipping cart because they are taking good care of our beautiful new E-bikes and shipping them to our door with the batteries included! This is not an easy thing to arrange in the Philippines so we are really excited to make this happen.
    Check out our review of this incredible service and check the link if you want to try it yourself.

    There is now another TH-camr on Siargao Island..... you have competition!..... lol His name is Brian, and he & his family moved there recently to join his wife's family, and get away from the chaos of living on Luzon.... sooner or later you're bound to bump into them..... That could make for an interesting cross-over vid!

    Hi Jay and Sacha thanks for this new video. Thanks for the continue promotion of that paradise Siargao and the Philippines. You made a perfect decisions in raising your family here. UK at the moment is in the spotlights with lots of chaos and killings of childrens 2 days ago. Many Brits are helpless because of yhe many problems brought by uncheck immigrations. Hoping that someday you can apply for a dual citizenships and you can already build your homes in the Philippines.

    You made a very good decision in raising your child in the province. And homeschooling is the best way. That way she isn't exposed to crazy indoctrination in school system here especially in the west. Things are getting crazier here. Take good care of your family. Yah bless 🙏 🤲

    You want to live in an exotic island while at the same time having the comforts and amenities of the city life. This is clearly a paradox. There will always be tradeoffs in life.

    Did you by any chance? Check to see if shipping carton has any ties to the chinese communist party, as for instance, Lazada, Shopee, Temu, Shein and TikToc do?
    I think you said it was based in SK. Maybe that is a good thing, but at least some, if not all, the ones listed above are based outside of China. They still funnel huge cash and data to the CCP.
    I hope your resource is CCP-free.

      No one making you watch. It’s useful information for some. They make videos for a job to earn money and take care of their family. They are not your best friend or your family. They create a persona that appeals to their members. If you want to talk to them on a basic level you can become a member and then pretend they are your friends. 😂
