    I so agree with this. Been a tourist in the Philippines and it is the only non English country, especially in Asia who has an excellent English dialect. Everyone can understand and speak. No need to use my phone (calculator) in haggling some souvenirs. All were hospitable, courteous, and sumptuous foods. I have been there for three times now and going to my fourth.

    One of the best and “genuine” vlogs I’ve seen featuring the Philippines. This 35-minute-video can even pass for ”TV PROGRAM” documentary level. The quality of editing, camera shots, narration and “hosting” was sooo impressive! Not to mention the “LOOKS” of the family are so appealing on the screen.
    I love seeing vlogs like this with kids involved in the video because as we all know, u cant fake the kids reaction. Theyre so innocent. You will see in their faces if they’re really enjoying or not. Unlike “over acting” vloggers there faking and exaggerating their reactions to gain subscribers and likes.
    Kudos!

    We stayed 2 nights and 3 days on these houseboats with our big family of 23 (10 kids) and split staying in the original houseboat in AwanAwan lagoon and Laknisan lagoon and booked both of the glass houseboat. When you said “paradise” - this is all I can compare to. We also did the same tour as you did and that was unforgettable. Your vlog takes me back to the most unforgettable vacation we had so far (June 2022) and can’t wait late next year to head back there. My favorite was the Vivian beach and Barracuda lake… and of course, the total package that is the original houseboat. The food was really good and the kids spend hours and hours on the water, so did we.

    Actually, the author of “the Beach” took inspiration from Palawan where he stayed first for 6 months when he started writing the novel. He intentionally changed the setting to Thailand because of the story’s theme that suited the backpackers’ lifestyle at that time with drugs more readily available to the Hippies in Thailand during the ‘80’s and ‘90’s - in the spirit of realism. It was rumored that he also did that to help keep Palawan’s anonymity from tourists in case the book blew up, which actually did. He didn’t want to exploit Palawan’s virginity if you will and more importantly keep pesky tourists away from this paradise. On the other hand, this novel/movie helped catapult Thailand to become one of Asia’s top tourist destinations whereas the Philippines still lags behind - way at the back of the pack in terms of tourist arrivals. A success in the author’s eyes. He actually wrote a second novel. This time he paid tribute to the Philippines, his true inspiration and made it as its setting. Unfortunately, it was a flop. In reality, the first novel garnered poor reviews as well. It was poorly written. It was only the beauty of the setting that piqued the readers’ interest.

      @@dantesalazar7805 I beg to disagree. We had the biggest red light district in Asia in the ‘70s that brought in European and Japanese sex tourists, but they were nowhere near the volume Thailand receives as of late. Besides, Thailand is popular not because of Pat Pong, but primarily because of its beaches and food. As a world traveler, I know the reason for the lack of popularity of the Philippines as a tourist destination is the dearth of organized trips. We can advertise all we want in all social media platforms to showcase the beauty of the country and how it’s more fun in the Philippines, but if it’s not backed up by ease of travel, then all these fanfare will be for naught. Ironically, it will be the same platforms that will dispute the advertising claims. The Philippines lacks tourism infrastructure and that’s a shame because we have so much to offer. Look at Vietnam. We had more tourist arrivals than them 5 years ago. Now, they attract twice as many as we do. Why? They know how to advertise and their ads are backed up by really great experience. You go there and your trip will be seamless from arrival to departure. You’ll be taken care of efficiently throughout your stay because it’s part of the package you already paid for before the trip. In the Philippines, because of the lack of these tour packages, you’ll waste your time finding your way around. From the time you land at the airport, you get greeted by scumbag taxi drivers. This is common place everywhere you go. By the time you reach Siargao for instance, you will have been exhausted and exasperated through all the hassles of reaching your destination. The challenges you have to overcome to get to your destination are not worth taking. Remember, tourists come to rest, relax and enjoy. Not to get stressed out. These bad experiences unfortunately spread like wild fire in social media. Believe me. I experience it on a regular basis myself. Would you believe I spent half the price going from Clark to Bali compared to my clark to Davao trip? Moreover, I stayed in a world class resort in Bali as opposed to the more expensive but smelly hotel room in Davao. Half of my trip was also spent finding my way around in uncomfortable tricycles and buses in Davao. I was stressed in Davao and very well rested in Bali. Unless these problems are addressed, tourists by the droves will not come. Maybe it’s better that way to prevent environmental degradation.
