I lived in the PI for 2 years. Awesome nice people. Best milk in the world. Chocolate milk especially. Fantastic beer. Steak, prawn, chicken. Pork sticks. A beautiful country.
That is awesome, and I absolutely agree man!
Hi Perdido. Am happy that you have a good impression and experience in the Philippines. 2 years? So you have been to some great beaches and islands in the Philippines,right?
I adore the Philippines and it's lovely people ! I have been there three times mainly in beautiful Baguio.On my second visit I stayed there for 50 days.During my third visit I enjoyed the tastiest, most gorgeous vegetarian dishes I have ever had in my life !I would love to return there one day 💜
MelinaS Sasha I studied in Baguio during my university years and I’m currently working here in Metro Manila to work. I miss Baguio so much.
Oh hey. Hope my comment is not too late. 😊 Baguio boy here - - born and raised. However, living and working abroad for six years now. I try to visit the Hometown every year but not this year 'cause of the current situation. I miss the Hometown badly. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed your stay. 😊

cute6rose hahaha! This is funny! Ok I will message you seems like you need a shoulder to cry on.
GARETT, YOU ARE RAISING OUR FLAG!! YOU'RE AN AMAZING BE TOURIST! WE LOVE OUR TOURIST BECAUSE YOU'RE HELPING OUR ECONOMY!!
Since I visited last January, I've been hooked on Philippines Travel Vlogs because I miss it so badly. I'm contemplating on booking another trip this January. In the meantime, I'm living vicariously on people's travel vlogs on the Philippines. If you've been thinking about visiting the Philippines, I highly recommend doing it. People are amazing, food are amazing, lots of places to see and explore, and wonderful experiences to cherish. Plus, knowing English is already a great start!
Proud filipino here right now im here in us and im very happy that some of the foreigners really appreciate our country the people place food and our culture
Videos like these make me smile bc I get to see my native country that I had to leave when I was three :-)) I live in America and hope to one day visit more of my family in the Philippines.
I felt the same way when I first arrived there ..
Your knowledge about our country's history is commendable. Thank you for visiting and appreciating the Philippines and her people.
You're welcome to come back to the Philippines hopefully after the pandemic... You'll find our country vastly improved 😊😊😊 Stay safe and healthy
I love the Philippines
Youre always welcome here bro! but be careful from robbers!
you're welcome here in phil.
Anton V. I'm in philipines
Welcome!!!! but be careful, because many people here are bad...
Thank you Anton.....
Lovely to see those places I’ve been before missing my born place I can’t wait to see you again PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭 love from UK England xoxo 🇬🇧😘
Please is the best place to be though I haven't be there but I have read more then about your country
I love your historical and cultural insights. Your open-mindedness is truly refreshing which is a true sign of intelligence. In short, I love it.
Hi Gareth! Thanks for showing your love to our humble country. Hope you go back & check out new improvements, most especially Pasig River. We love you & your family 🥰
Just found your channel and I'm loving it so far! I've heard lots of wonderful things about the people in the Philippines, and it's nice to see that you had a great experience with them right off the bat. The food you had looks delicious! All of the dishes sound so interesting. I bet you could spend hours exploring that market! I love that you spoke a bit about the history there as well!
You will enjoy the tourists spots but there are so many things to do... the best way is to have a local partner...or someone who can guide you if you are planning to travel all over the Philippines....But as I said there is so much now on RUclips that can guide you on how to have the Best of the Philippines..
Nice to see this wonderful comments about our country! Thank you for your appreciation
Explanation is great clear also I was born manila too 🙇 long time thanks god bless you 😋🌟
come visit our country we would be happy to have you
Interesting place, i want to see more about manila, the guy who guide you seems very nice..
Ben Judeo
Honestly that's the one you need to avoid...go to other islands. You will appreciate it more...the Real Countryside of the Philippines.
im a filipino but i prefer you to go out of manila. because manila is having big problems like traffic, air pollution and crowded people. id rather go to cebu, davao city, cagayan de oro city the cities of the philippines where lots of beaches and lots of beautiful landmark and a nicest people in the universe.
santos pahuyo thanks for the advice and info i look forward, I think philippines is very interesting country, i've watch so many videos here in RUclips.
Ben Judeo ilo I'lo nice home town
Ben Judeo See you
Thank you so much for visiting Philippines 😊🇵🇭
Thank you for supporting our beautiful treasures 😘❤️
Nice one, how are you doing
@@johnxavier5786 so far so good ☺️
I haven’t been to the Philippines in years and this series of travel deeper will probably make me buy my ticket and go back! I can’t wait to see the rest!
Good strategy, publishing your content where international vloggers have low traffic at monsoon season. Your views will increase as most people in PH are staying in their home watching anything they can due to rainy season...Welcome, and thank you in choosing PH for making your content, you are a great help in improving the lives of Filipinos through tourism vlogging...
So full of memorable stay Mr Gareth for the first day with your best friend and tour guide as well! Hope you find your place to stay for good!
I'm so thrilled to see all your reactions with all the basic thing you learned here in MANILA 👍 👍 👍 WOW - you know more our history.
These videos make me smile about my country. "Live a life you will remember"
Ah man I miss fish for breakfast. Looking forward to the episodes man! Great first one!
Nothing wakes you up like a sun dried fish head staring at you in the morning! 🤣
Ohh..mik mik u're here...
Mik mik . . ❤❤❤❤❤
Its rainy season now here in the phil.
Hi Mik-Mik,,, when are you going back to the PI, I heard there is second episode with the Fighter Boys!
The taxi driver is quiet but friendly :'D
Oh my this guys were so excited about our country! I can smile on his real feelings of excitement
Loved your articulation of the intramuros history particularly.
The Philippines is amazing. My favorite holiday destination. Awesome people and the food, masarap. But I must admit, I have not dared to eat balut, yes I know shame on me. I am lucky to have a couple of good Pinoy friends. So I am very lucky to see the Philippines like not many foreigners have seen it. As a rural Dutch guy, it always takes a couple of days to adjust. Especially after landing at the airport and get into the hot hectic town of Manila. Our biggest town has 820.000 inhabitants :) Hope you enjoy your stay in the Philippines as much as I have!!
I havent tried it as well. Im a local. Its disgusting.
Thank you so much for this video. I miss my home country so much, the fun, the joy around, and my kababayans.
Wow!!! You got me with these videos and now i’m jealous that I cannot wait to go back home! You should go back to Philippines soon Gareth! You got all the loyal Filipino viewers supporting you :)
Enjoy your trip Gareth
Have fun in the philippines 👍👍👍
Can you take me there one day ?
Thank you so much for visiting our lovely country - the Phiippines!!!:-) SPED Teacher here in Florida, U$A!!!:-)
Gareth, I wish you could comeback soon! So you see the new Manila under the care of Mayor Isko a lot of changes a much cleaner and better Manila. Manila has been rehabilitate by the new Mayor lots of new beautiful scenery to see just comeback and see for yourself.We are looking forward to welcome you again here in the Philippines !👍😊
Big like Who watching with me now 2019...love Philippines 🇵🇭
Watching now 2021.😀
I was in the Philippine's in the 70's, back then Manila was much less crowded and truly beautiful. It was interesting to watch them build a new ski scraper, they used bamboo scaffolding. Baguio is nice to visit much cooler in the mountains, however was scary to travel there back then. We were about halfway up the mountain when we had to go around a broken down army truck. As we passed it became obvious what happened it was full of bullet holes. Also back then the most common working class breakfast was fish heads and rice wrapped up in a banana leaf. Also, if we at meat that wasn't fish, pork or chicken it likely barked before it was butchered.
Mathew Rupp the bullet holes might be the work of communist rebels
@@cedriclamit9776
Yes most likely, they were also dealing with Muslim insurgents. I was a K-9 handler, at Clark
USAFB, and it wasn't uncommon to here gun fights off base at night. They would probe on base but they weren't looking for a fight. If we contacted them you fired a slap flare and got the hell out of there. We were only armed with a 38 cal revolver, a fire team would respond and check the area. Of course the bad guys would be long gone.
Manila has never been beautiful......homeless people sleeping on the streets, kids beggin because they are hungry, foreign drivers pulled over just because they are foreign and the local corrupt cops pull them over to take bribes, shit in the streets, have a look at Manila Zoo..it is a example of just HOW beautiful Manila is...really rotten. It is a total fuck hole.
That may be true today, however in the 1970's it was a great city to visit. Very clean and the people were friendly. You must remember the population has tripled since the 70's. The downside was martial law with strict rules. You learned if you heard a cop yelling hinto hinto it was time to hit the ground because they fired on anyone running from the police and they were poor shots.
Very much different now....a big transformation...you can't imagine the changes...from 70's to now....you will be amazed....just google or youtube..so many tourist coming now a days...
I appreciate the respect and cinematography you devoted to these vids. Thank you, salamat!
Great work! I love the Philippines and it has also become my favorite go to place! Keep it up.

@@ronaldocastillo5979 thais are beautiful but most of them are ladyboys hahahha
not all
Thanks for your comment my girlfriend is Filipina 😎😎
Great video! And you did your research about Intramuros! Amazing! Thank you!
Just watching this now and a few of your vlogs in 2022. Really brought me back in time and felt like I was rediscovering the Philippines again even if only vicariously. Used to go back to the Philippines every year in December and January to visit my parents, dive in Batangas, and explore the country. COVID changed all that back in 2020. I made it back to Canada just a couple of months before COVID became a worldwide phenomenon. Dying to get back but don't know when. Thank you for your beautifully done videos. Excellent work Gareth!... by the way kudos to Simon who did a good job touring you around.
Im knew, subscriber, and enjoyed the Philippines .😉😊 God blessed...
Thanks for promoting our country, the Philippines😊❤🇵🇭
Hello my beautiful friend, how are you doing 😊
Thank you Gareth for loving❤️
Our country🤗
God bless!
So happy that you like our country.. enjoy and stay safe!
