In this video, we explore the chaotic and congested streets of Manila, the bustling capital city of the Philippines. With a population of over 12 million people and limited infrastructure, traffic in Manila is notorious for its gridlock and long wait times.
Travel times in Manila can be unpredictable and often vary greatly depending on the time of day and the route taken. Rush hour traffic can cause significant delays, especially on major thoroughfares like EDSA, the city's main artery. It's not uncommon for a trip that would normally take 30 minutes to turn into a 2-hour commute during peak traffic hours. Additionally, road conditions can be poor in certain areas, which can slow down travel times even further. Despite the challenges, there are strategies that locals use to help navigate the traffic, such as taking alternative routes, using public transportation, or avoiding certain areas altogether. Whether you're a local or a visitor to Manila, it's important to factor in traffic conditions when planning your itinerary and allow for extra time to get to your destination.
FINALLY... we arrive in Manila, Philippines. BGC area to be specific. Apparently the Filipinos are some of the friendliest people on the planet. We've just come back from India, so the Filipinos have some beating to do.
Our one month journey starts here... we will be travelling to Cebu city, Moalboal, Oslob, Bohol, Siargao Island, Palawan - El Nido
We plan to eat, drink & experience Philippines as much as possible for the next 4 weeks. First stop, Manila City 🇵🇭

We are Eleise and Lawrence & Nyh - A young family from the south of England. Like many people the pandemic gave us a shake up! While watching hours of Mark Weins in Thailand - We had our “Ah ha” Moment. We decided we wanted to travel.
Enjoying working for ourselves, we didn’t want to give up our business and decided it was entirely possible for us to do both. So we set about making it our lifestyle to work in the UK for a month, and then travel for a month - month on, month off…. until our little boy Nyh goes to school! We want to inspire people that you don’t have to up-sticks, sell all your belongings and leave behind family to be able to see the world.
Our Philosophy. Work, Travel, Repeat.

"Doon ako sa..." I'm bound for..
"Linya nila mahaba masyado. That line is unusually long"
"Siyempre iniingatan ko pasahero" Definitely, I need to take care of my passengers
Thank you so much 🖤 We love having you around... I feel like you are going to be great help to us this trip. Thank you 🖤🖤🖤
You're welcome but I will not be able to translate when you go to cebu because they speak a different language which is bisaya and different from tagalog. Unless that speak tagalog. Tagalog is our national language so it is understood everywhere in the Philippines. Just call out again in your video and pretty sure somebody from cebu will translate it for you. Don't be afraid to ask Filipinos for help we actually like it if we able to help visitors. Enjoy guys and keep safe 🙏 ❤
🖤
No worries… bisaya here currently watching them as they are bound to visit my beloved province BEHOLD BOHOL… Enjoy your stay! Dont hesitate to ask locals but be wise too not to get taken advantage as a foreign visitor specially when it comes to fare/fee.. more of that Filipinos are overall friendly🥰
There’s a lot of flight delays in Manila because there is only one runway at the Manila airport. They are building a new airport in Bulacan which should make things better.
Jose Rizal (pronounce Reezal' and not Rye'zal) was a doctor (Opthalmologist), a polymath and a polyglot. He has numerous monuments and memorials both here and abroad including in London at the Beckett family residence where he stayed on his trip there. If you go to Rizal Park, you will see the Rizal Monument which has his skeletal remains beneath it and is guarded continuously by the Philippine Marines Corp. He was
actually executed there in 1896 by firing squad by the Spanish for the crime
of rebellion. While he was not directly involved in the Philippine Revolution against Spain, his novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo
are often cited as part of the inspiration for the revolution. In Fort Santiago in Intramuros, there's a Rizal Shrine where you can see some of his clothing and learn more about him. And they even have on display his
bullet-struck vertebra. His life was actually quite fascinating. Very popular with the ladies too, hehe. And he actually married a woman of Irish descent, Josephine Bracken. His novels are quite controversial too. Spoiler: the most controversial part of the novel is when we learn that Maria Clara's father was actually Father Damaso, a priest.
Maybe try watching the movie Jose Rizal starring Cesar Montano if you have time. :)
Nyh is most enjoying in Philippines.
👍 Like from India

Translation: " Sir, I went there (lane) because a truck might hit me.
Enforcer: "You drove in a truck lane so..... "
Driver: ... I'll renew it sir, it's going to be due ( License).
Enforcer: Yeah I know.. and you're carrying a passenger (he's thinking about you).
Thank you so much for this... 🖤

Ore fun in the philippines ,MABUHAY😊❣️
Can't stop looking at your adventures. Love your darling son. Both of you are very good-looking. Powerful couple.
Thank you ☺️ 🖤
That's one of the places I would love to see in the Philippines. There's just so much history in that fort.
Wow! Lawrence knows some Filipino words. Impressive.👍🏼❤️
I was gonna suggest go north to Baguio city cause Panagbenga (flower festival) is happening right now. And the weather up north is really good compare to the islands this time of the year
Ahhh.. we'll look into that 🖤
Happy and lovely family!..enjoy and have fun in the Philippines!..Eleise has a pair of tantalizing eyes...reminds me so much of my favorite Hollywood actress...Natalie Wood...
He is not a police but a Traffic enforcer.. the driver kept arguing based on the video.
🖤
Traffic enforcer of City
It's a traffic enforcer who stop your taxi, because the taxi went to the wrong lane, supposed to be for the truck lane that's why he stop your taxi, keep safe Godbless
Thank you! We were kept there for a 15 minutes and questioned. Is that normal? 🖤
@@parttimetravellingfamily well depends, since your driver argued instead of just surrendering his license it took longer. Your driver based on the conversation knew he went thru the wrong lane and still tried to argue his way out of the ticket.
If your driver surrendered his license it could have been done faster maybe max of 5mins. I think it's normal even in the US that if you argue with the traffic enforcer (not police) then it will ofcourse take more time.
ps: i think it would be better to update your thumbnail.. change it to traffic enforcer instead of police. They are not the same here and they could actually get into trouble (go to jail) if they prentend to be police.
@@parttimetravellingfamily Yes, because the driver keeps on reasoning to the enforcer, sometimes it takes more than that to prove the allegations, at the end the taxi driver can't do anything so better give your license or ask for sorry to the endorser for consideration
Salamat - Thank you
Kumusta = How are you
Maganda Umaga = Good morning
Magandang Gabi = Good evening
Po = can be added after any words, it's usually used when you are talking to a elder
Thank you ☺️🖤
It's refreshing to have British vloggers here in the Philippines I love your accents. Sorry if it reminds me of Mary Poppins but I love it. hehe
Eight miles from Home is also British,they leave now almost 3 yrs in Siargao,there‘s a couple also a friend so Make things Happen
Hello happy couple enjoy explore port Santiago the hestory of the port Santiago welcom to cebu.enjoy your vacation moal boal.its more fun in the Philippines hello baby cute god bless stay safe
I really enjoy your family Travels. I was in H20 Hotel and did the whole Manila Ocean Park thing. I ate at Makan Makan restaurant lot. My fiancee really loved the Aquarium room.
in CEBU YOU MUST TRY LECHON!!! ESP THE MARKET where they sell a lot of lechon and choose in which store you gonna buy the best taste for you palate.. and also some stores will let you taste there lechon!!
"kumusta po" (how is everything, with respect) better than "kumusta ka' (how are you specifically) is not said often
Thank you 🖤
Lord have mercy that’s a beautiful baby boy ❤ 🇺🇸 I’m new to your channel and love it
Po is just a word that Filipinos add at the end of their sentence to show respect to the person they are talking to. Sometimes they use mam (madame) sir, kuya (brother) or ate (sister) instead of po.
Love you guys 🥰
And vlogs 💞
Sir when u come in india🇮🇳 you must visit uttarkhand and we always welcome you in india❤️
Kinagagalak kung makilala is means is I'm happy to meet you.
😅 i'll get better at it I promise 🖤
03:21 - "Joe-zay Rai-zal" (Jose Rizal) is actually pronounced "Ho - seh Rih-zal". In Spanish, the letter "J" sounds like an "H" and many Filipinos have Spanish names. Also, Filipino parents kept using Spanish names for their children even during the time the US colonized the Philippines.
Who cares?

Nyh has to meet Story, the daughter of Jay and Sasha of 8 Miles from Home vlog.
Hello Mr Hairy 😎 Hulk 🤩🥳🤩🥳
Limited infrastructures? Metro manila got countless elevated freeways, flyovers, tollways etc.. naia expressway is elevated that connect to the main airports to all cities within metro manila..in fact metro manila is saturated with flyovers, elevated freeways, elevated tollways etc..roads condition are excellent and smooth everywhere no potholes even in provincial areas. unlike in india
hence travel to from the airport is fast and easy no traffic coz it's elevated ( naia airport expressway- so going to the airport is fast and easy)....edsa is a free highway so it's a bit traffic however if anyone want to speed up mobility then just take an elevated tollways with a fee.
Not much traffic in manila now a days due to much improved public transport infrastructures and roadways...do some research before you made an official statements on your caption..coz it's very MISLEADING.
Certainly it's a copy paste from some random websites with fake details
It's dangerous leaving small kids on the roads alone .
When were kids on the roads alone Clarence?
🥰🥰🇵🇭
🖤
Nyh is cute kids and will be a handsome young man soon...
🖤
Driver: "Sir, I will be trapped if I use the truck lane because it's too long. I avoided the truck lane. It was too long"
Traffic Enforcer: "You entered the traffic"
(perhaps something is expired)
Driver: "It will be renewed soon"
Traffic Enforcer: "You should be careful, you have passengers"
Driver: "I agree"
Those girl students said "gwapo" means "handsome" 😃
The guys shouting at each other are throwing profanity which is very common in Metro Manila but very rare in the Visayas and Mindanao.
Please come visit Malaysia for a truly asian experience. You wont regret it I assure you.
👌👌👌❤❤❤
May i know the name of your hairstyle, It looks like spd red ranger "Brandon Jay Mclaren".
The lucky part of catching a flight late is.. the plane is most likely still there (when has a plane taken off early? 😂)
Manila and Cebu City has insane traffic, the infrastructure just isn't there.
😂... Cebu City was even worse 🙈 People sit in the traffic for hours every day!
@@parttimetravellingfamily wild!!
I remember being pulled over on the same situation, drove to a truck lane; I only did the because i was lost and a so a police office to ask for directions going to BGC. Instead I was do not go to the truck lane or I will give you a ticket anyways it work out after i gave him P200 pesos then the gave me directions LOL...
😂 Win win
daan bantayan has a nicer beach than moalboal...
Nice family smiling family keep smiling with respect love OMMMM HARI OM
the horse carriage drivers scene is pretty funny. they being Karens filipino male version. swearing and stuff 😂
surprised those drivers haven't gone viral yet
Kamusta ka ---- po. Kamusta ka means "How are you?" Filipinos add po at the end as a sign of respect. So you will here po a lot at the end of a sentence.
That police you protect you
Hey man, it seems your commander wants you to learn tiktok, you’ve got to learn it
Nxt time again visit India jai ho

That guy got no police power. He's only a traffic enforcer.

2:00 3 millions india soldiers were taken against their will by Hitler equivalent= Winston Churchill, to fight world war 2 which was not even our war. And sucked every mineral and metal from india to fuel the British army Against Soviet Union. Urgh.
Actually this area is so boring I spent a day there nothing worth seeing here
Historical tidbit - The Kingdom of Great Britain briefly occupied Manila from 1762 to 1764.
