@@CosmoTigato Haha, yes, “very nice” on repeat, lol! 😂😂😂

@@russ6064 thanks heaps Russ. And in the new year I’ll be doing a totally Kiwi series of YT videos, so please stay tuned my friend! 😃🙌

@@cryptorocketeer Ah! I didn’t know that! Thanks mate 😃

@@cryptorocketeer haha, yeah, but do your ember me telling you that for two or three weeks I was going to be on the road videoing my next NZ venture so would only be posting videos on Saturdays. Ir was going to be Wednesdays, but then I noticed most of my viewers watched on Saturdays. It’s getting very complicated, lol! 😅

​@@love_localhaha yeah you need to work out what is best for the viewers, same same for me, I just check each day if you have posted or not and will always watch it no matter what 😊

@@cryptorocketeer and that I truly appreciate mate 🥰

@@rendalevelasco9120 It’s a lovely place to relax and dine with friends, isn’t it! 🥰

@@GerardoSoutoTrigo Thanks Gerardo. Yes, I like to let all my viewers know the prices in their respective currencies, so they can compare the super affordable Philippines prices 😃

@@recardobrown Thanks Bro. Yes I will be, absolutely! But right now I’m focussing on the delights of the “Kiwi Pie” as my love of foods! I’m loving the road trip I’m on. A couple of days ago I passed through Hamilton, when I was hoping to meet up with you to share our love of food! I enjoyed my first ever Palusami Pie and a Streak, Jalapeño & Cheese Pie. They were delicious! Now I’ve just spent a couple of days in Auckland blitzing some awesome bakeries and now I’m going to Whangārei and then further north to try some awesome pies! 🥧 🥧 🥧 I think I’ll be dieting once I’m back home for Christmas 🎄 lol! 😂

@@CosmoTigato haha, yeah, sorry Bro. I’m learning to move a bit slower for the camera, lol!

@@CosmoTigato Cheers Bro! 😄🙌

@@cryptorocketeer Yeah, I’m feeling for you mate. I certainly don’t miss English winters! 🥶

​@@love_localEngland is probably worse than Sweden because it's always windy and rainy, at least in Sweden it's mainly dry because of the freezing temperatures.

@@cryptorocketeeryes, it’s that UK wet coldness that chills to the bones I don’t miss one iota! Mind you, NZ can be cold & wet too, but where I live doesn’t get bitterly cold and I have the wood fire going which makes my home nice & cosy 😊

😄🙌

@@cryptorocketeer yes, the food was nice and hot because there was such a fast turn-around of customers that they were constantly bringing out more food to the buffet trays. Really filling and super cheap!

​​​@@love_localyeah that crossed my mind actually, always good if it's busy in the all you can eat buffet... If it was empty then you'd have been asking for a microwave 😅😅

@@cryptorocketeer ….and asking if the microwave actually works, lol! 😅

@@cryptorocketeer Yeah, it is a bit of a long one, this one…..and just to let you know that after this Saturday’s video, I’ll be posting only on Wednesday am (Tuesday pm for you I think?) for the next 2 or 3 weeks, because I’ll be away videoing a NZ series which I’ll be starting in the new year. Hopefully it’ll be a topic you’ll enjoy as it’s definitely influenced by England (NZ being a British colonial country) 😁

​@@love_localcool 👍 I'll be looking forward to seeing those videos mate.

@@cryptorocketeercheers mate. It’s going to be interesting to see how it goes, but I’m really excited to do something focussing here in NZ and maybe Australia and if it really takes off subscription-wise, then maybe back in my home country of the UK! 😃

​@@love_locali get the feeling that you was not impressed with the breakfast, especially the heat 😅

@ Awww, c’mon….I was being as polite as I could be about this “american breakfast” that had (English) marmalade & (untoasted) toast, lol!!! And I already know that you know about the luke warm food served in this beautiful SE Asian country, heh heh. But it was passable and honestly, the other two meals at this establishment were really enjoyable by filipino standards, so I was happy 😉

@@rendalevelasco9120 Thank you kindly, good sir 🥰

@@tullioserafin4511 thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, I’ve learned that it’s all part of the Filipino culture/character. Never expect too much. And in this case, even though I wondered why they didn’t tell me there were no fries when I ordered them (maybe she didn’t know?), I was super impressed in how fast my garlic rice arrived (and I love garlic rice, lol)! 😄🙌

@@CosmoTigato Thank you so much my friend. Your kind words are real encouragement for me as I learn more about videoing & editing! 😃🙌

@@recardobrown Oh yes Bro, I do love my food! And even though I’m now back in NZ, I’ve still got more filipino food vlogs to be posting before Christmas! And speaking of being back in NZ now…..I’m thinking what types of videos to create to promote our beautiful country and its food. So I’m going to do a massive series called “Love Local Pies” (keeping with the name of my YT channel) to promote the good ol’ “Kiwi Meat Pie”. I’m going to start that within the next 2 to 2 weeks going around NZ’s best pie bakeries and as I know you love your food too Recardo, I wondered if you might like to join me in pie tasting at a bakery in Hamilton? I’m thinking “LunchBar Eighty8” &/or any other Hamilton pie bakeries you might suggest? So are you up for a meet-up in Hamilton to join me, at my expense, to taste some mighty-fine Kiwi Pies, my Bro? 😃🙌

@love_local sounds good bro, look forward to it 👍

@@recardobrown Awesome Bro. Email me your contact details so I can let you know when I’ll be passing through Hamilton. lovelocals@icloud.com Your Filipina partner is more than welcome too, if she would like to come along 😊🇵🇭

@@cryptorocketeer haha….yeah, I think they made me pleasantly light-headed, lol! 😅

@@cryptorocketeer I know! I couldn’t believe my good fortune, lol! 😅🙌

@@rendalevelasco9120 yes, it’s true. I am getting used to the Filipino sweet tasting foods. Like in two previous videos, I didn’t think I was going to like the Jollibee spaghetti because I thought it would be too sweet and I don’t have a sweet tongue, but I love it! It’s not as sweet as I had expected 🥰🙌

@@love_local I saw a few of your videos and I can see how you like the Talisay lechon compared to Carcar lechon.. I'm sure you'll find a lot of awesome Filipino foods but always remember that quality always comes with a price... more power and I pray you and Anne have a great future ahead... I use to work in I.T. Park in Cebu, I hope Anne showcase the area in Balamban showing the whole city of Cebu...

@ Thank you very much my friend. Yes, I have already found a lot of filipino dishes that I like, especially filipino home-cooking. I love dishes like adobo and my favourite at the moment is Chicken Afritada. Anne’s mum cooked it for me when we were on Nonoc Island and I love it! And the only time I’ve passed through Balamban was when we travelled back to Cebu City from Negros. I’m actually back in New Zealand now, but when I return to the Philippines, I will definitely check out Balamban, so thank you for your recommendation and please stay connected so that when I’m there, maybe you can advise me on places to visit 🥰🙌🇵🇭

@@mervingoose1151 you’re welcome. I think it’s important to include the current exchange rates for everyone to get an angle on these costs, so they can relate 😊👍

@@Abdul.. Thanks Abdul. The room size is perfect for us as we travel around because it’s only for sleeping. And the plan is that I’ll be going back and forth to the Philippines and in 3 years, I’ll retire there 😊

The supposed crispy pork tasted like chopped peanuts. And the whole dish tasted like coleslaw. It was really strange.

​@@love_local😂😂😂😂

@@recardobrown thanks heaps my friend 🥰

@@stevesilver7437 Hi Steve. I remember you from comments on my other videos. Good to see you again and you are so right about them leaving all the fat on the pork, but it’s because of that, like you say, the Humba tastes soooo good! 😋

@@cryptorocketeer cheers mate. Yes it was. And right now I’m editing the next video of when we travel down to Panglao and I’m amazed at how much we squeezed into that day too, lol! And this is me recuperating after the op, lol! 😅 Oh yes….and I saw you on the Tom & Lay livestream when they were trying to work out the comments section. It was getting late for me so I went to bed. Did they get it sorted?

​@@love_local I didn't stay long to be honest, I've lost interest in their adventures since I travelled to Philippines, nothing personal though, just not been watching anything apart from your channel and some sports stuff. What OP ? Maybe you told me and I didn't pick up on it, hope everything is good 😊

@@cryptorocketeer yeah, I’m with you on not watching their videos so much now, but for different reasons. I’m just working hard on research for the type of video vlog I share once I’ve used up all my Philippines videos, until I return. And in January this year, I had an emergency op to have my prostate removed as it was full of aggressive cancer. That’s why, going to the Philippines just 6 months after the op was one heck of a challenge. I did tell you about it, but maybe you didn’t see that comment?

​@@love_localok that sucks mate, I do recall something now but maybe I'd had a few red horse 😅 I actually have an appointment on the 18th with the urologist for some checks, I did a PSA test before I travelled to Philippines but nothing came up, but they want to do an x-ray and some other stuff apparently 😢 hopefully nothing to worry about but I do have some issues with peeing 🤦‍♂️ glad you are better now mate 😊

@@cryptorocketeer HaHa….yes, that red horse does tend to affect one’s memory, lol! Well if nothing came up on your PSA, you should in theory, be okay. When they first checked my PSA, it was 14 which is considered very high. And within 2 months it went up to 18, so yeah, my cancer was aggressive. But they nailed it. Still dealing the the after effects, but in time, everything will hopefully be back to normal (ish). I do hope everything for you will be okay and that the peeing isn’t anything to do with what I had.

@@CosmoTigato it would be rude not to, lol! 😂 But yes, I’ll try anything once to see if I like it 😋

@@love_local

@@CosmoTigato Gosh, that was a few videos ago, lol! Yes, that wooden box on the side of the pontoon with a large hole in the floor to pee through and it goes straight into the sea where those two young filipinas were swimming, lol! Crazy, lol!

@@cryptorocketeer HaHa, I know! When she was born, they threw away the mold, lol! 😂

@@recardobrown Cheers Recardo. And did you try Kwek-Kwek? They’re really nice too 😋

​@@love_localI also said I'd never eat balut, so far after 2 visits I never really came across it, however I did see what looked like loads of boiled eggs in a 7/11 so maybe they were infact balut 🙈

@@cryptorocketeer I don’t think they’d sell balut in 7/11 as it’s very much a street food. I just asked the proprietors (husband & wife team) of the pension we were staying at, where to find balut. They also advised not to pay anymore than 15 pesos each for the tricycle rides.

​@@love_localnever say never in Philippines 😅

@@cryptorocketeer That’s so true mate. You never know how your day is going to unfold in the Philippines, lol! 😂

@@CosmoTigato HaHa….and thank you for watching to the end, when instead of “hello-hello” I should be saying “goodbye-goodbye” lol 😄

@@CosmoTigato yes mate, that braised beef was really tasty! 😋

@@cryptorocketeer haha, cheers mate 😄🙌

@@recardobrown I hadn’t really thought about that Bro, because we met online through the dating app PinaLove and had a LDR for a year before meeting in real life on this trip 😊

@@love_local I met my now wife on Christian Filipina

@@recardobrown that’s awesome Bro! 🥰 Christian Filipina approached me about advertising on my YT channel but then I didn’t hear backfrom them. Strange. but that’s so good you met you wife on that dating app. How long ago did you meet on their?

@@recardobrown i know, it’s amazing isn’t it. Filipinos love their food don’t they! 😄

@@recardobrown Hi Recardo! There’s a Filipino food shop in Hamilton!?! I’m jealous, lol! What’s it called and what filipino food do they sell? I’ll definitely pay a visit one day! 😃🙌

@@wesjohnson-sg2dc Hi Wes. No set date at the moment mate because there’s stuff to work through, but I plan to return to the Philippines earlyish next year 🥰

That’s awesome. There’s nothing like the freedom of an open road! And a very good morning to you too my friend 😄🙌

Hi Jarad. I would recommend Mactan International Airport because it’s new, privately owned and is very well run. Immigration are fast and friendly. Compared to the airports in Manila that are more chaotic and to a certain extent, disorganised. Where are you flying from?

Hey, where’ve you been mate, lol? Thanks so much for your kind words, especially as, compared to my last 2 or 3 videos, I thought this would be a bit boring, so I cut it down to just 10 minutes in length and posted it midweek, lol! So your kind words are truly appreciated mate 🥰🙌

@@cryptorocketeer HaHa….god question mate. I’m actually now back in NZ! It’s the start of summer here and I have a fair bit of work to be doing on my property. But I still have about 20 Philippines videos to be editing and posting, so it’ll look like I’m still there, lol! 😄 Are you back in Sweden now? If you are and want to chat, please feel free to email me at lovelocals@icloud.com 😊

​​@@love_localhaha I was actually going to say are you even in the Philippines still but thought it would be more polite to ask how long instead 😅 I thought it was a little bit late for Philippines when you posted. Yes I'm in Sweden mate. I will take a screenshot of your email, thanks for being thoughtful 😊

@@cryptorocketeer you’re welcome mate. And I actually set my videos for a set time to be posted (7am NZ time) because the YT analytics tells me that’s when the majority of my viewers are online. But YT keep moving the goal posts, so I take everything with a pinch of salt….including cheap Filipino tequila, lol! 😅

​@@love_local 😅 haha on the cheap Filipino tequila 😂😂

@@cryptorocketeer actually, the tequila I bought was from Mexico, but it’s crazy how cheap alcohol is in the Philippines, especially spirits! I don’t actually drink much spirits, but did drink the local rum (those “Tanduay” ads are everywhere, lol) but my go-to drink was San Miguel Lite (Red Horse is good but not my regular drink because of it’s strength), just to quench my thirst in the heat 😋

@@dannynicart2389 Yes, that’s so true Danny. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the quality of road was there 😃

@@arghentrock thank you. We sure did! If you go to my YT channel @love_local you can see the whole feast in my longer video 😋🙌

@@luismari7086 Haha, someone else said that too. Right now, I think it’s more craving that delicious Cansi Soup, lol! 😄🙌

@@love_local i love cansi my family is from iloilo and bacolod god bless

@@luismari7086 Oh cool! Apparently Iloilo is where Cansi was first created! But for my first visit to Bacolod, it felt like I was in the cuisine capital of Visayas! I loved the food there 🥰

@@love_local nice to hear you should go and the pala pala fish market best seafood around sour soup using batuan sour fruit

@@luismari7086 yes, I definitely will, the next time I visit. Thank you 🥰

What!?! I’m seeing your comment here! How are you seeing that I don’t see them? 😮

@@junlab2612 Hi there. So you must be from Bacolod. I loved it there! So many fabulous places to eat. I will definitely be visiting again! And to think that Cansi is a good hangover cure has got me interested, lol!!! 🫨😵‍💫🤪😂😂😂 So yes, I would love to know your secret to making a good CANSI 🥰

I'm living in a vulcan city in central negros but was born in surigao, mindanao... it's a carabao's meat... 😋

@@junlab2612 Oh wow, so it wasn’t beef soup that I ate, it was Caraboa (Water Buffalo)! I didn’t know that and that’s why I was wondering why it was different!?! So I was eating water buffalo, but didn’t know! Thank you so much for telling me the secret! I loved the mountain life in Negros. I would gladly live there and the native coffee there was my favourite 🥰 So you were born in Surigao! That was the first island I visited after landing in Cebu. It’s very beautiful there also 😍

​@@love_local MADAMO GUID NA SALAMAT! ♥️🇵🇭

@@junlab2612 gina-abiabi ikaw 🥰🇵🇭

Ah, is this the comment you said I didn’t respond to mate? No, I didn’t see it because for some reason I haven’t received a notification for it!?! Sorry mate, another YT glitch, in the same way you don’t seem to be allowed to like videos? And no, I edited out most of what she ate, lol 😂

And also, again I’m not getting your YT name when I reply to your comments again. Thats really annoying because I don’t know if you receive notifications that I’ve replied to your comments!?

​@@love_local I don't have notifications on mate, don't worry about what I wrote, just having a bad time recently, I've literally stopped watching all of the RUclipsrs apart from your's 😊

@@cryptorocketeer Yeah, I guessed you were have a moody-moment mate, but no offence taken. I’m having more & more of those as I get older, lol! 😂🙌 And for the notifications, I meant for me. I had an email notification for your second message on this video, but I didn’t receive an email notification for your first message. And I was receiving email notifications for other messages at the same time of your first message. I even checked my spam folder, but no notification there either! And look at that. Now your YT name is back at the front of my reply! I’m learning that YT have a lot of tech issues on a very repetitive & consistent rate! But I do really really appreciate you still watching my videos. I’m truly honoured! Thank you 😊🙌

​@@love_localMy moods right now are connected to the thing I tried telling you weeks ago and YT decided to keep deleting 😅 Just to keep it short my girlfriend is very poorly and blind since June 3rd

@@jeremybennett2953 Like I said, we were already stuffed from eating a whole lot of rabbit earlier (check last weeks video), but this broth was irresistible mate! 😂🙌

@@jeremybennett2953 HaHa, not all Kiwis, Jeremy. As a chef back in the day, this here Kiwi used to carve meat off the bone at the table of restaurant guests. But for this video, it might have got messy carving a boneless piece of meat swimming in a broth, lol. The bone was the anchor mate 😂🙌
