You are so popular! You know so many people. You fit in just fine anywhere. Hope you find somewhere to settle in the future and open a business there. Looks like you are already well connected. All the very best to you Michael! 😎
💫💥💫You were truly in your element tonight, Michael!! ✨️💫✨️ You looked well-rested and up for all that walking, talking and high-energy event. Great job! 👏👏👏🫡
I have not been there for Dinagyang but have been to the Festive Walk. It was really great and lots to do. Looks like everyone was having a great time there.
Im taking notes of all your videos about the Philippines. We went back home twice last year and planning to come back again for vacation this year. More power and God bless Michael. ❤😊
You’ve officially become my favorite vlogger in the Philippines. Another great video. Really happy to see your new channel growing so quickly. You will pass up the old one before long at this rate.
It was Dinagyang last year when I subscribed to your old channel. You have awesome and informative videos. I am so glad to subscribe again. Keep up the good work you have all our support. Iloilo loves you.
I do appreciate for your continued enthusiasm and positive spirit as you share lots of amazing adventure and experiences to the entire world. Keep up the good work👍🏼🤗
@That Philippines life. Man the Philippines knows how to do festivals. So many people and so much colour involved. Was in Makati Jan 2023 and managed to be there for Chinese new year which was prity cool. 18k Michael and rising.
You do a great job talking 2 everybody 😀 And they all love that! Simple but difficult 2 do that 😁 Thats why i love your vlog. I do the same in Laguna, Luzon. Many many friends there.
0:21 Thank you for showing this year's Dinagyang. I miss iloilo. I was there last year but didn't get to watch it. Keep vlogging iloilo so it will lessen our feelings of home sicknesses. Enjoy everyday life 🎊🥰
sounds like a nice place to be. wow a talanted young person who is not singing the 90s hits all my filipino friends here are stuck in the 90s for music lol
I'm smiling while watching your video Michael, missing the city of love already, the beautiful Iloilo. Thank you for sharing your experience and adventure. Happy Dinagyang! Hala bira😊🥳💃!
Just came from the Philippines for a quick vacation. I haven’t been in Manila since 2006 and it feels so much safer than it was. Finally added some highways, but still hectic driving. Happy randomly seeing someone from Chicago in the video lol came back here a week ago and hated being here in the cold. I’d rather be there as well! 😂
for sure, lots of beautiful people there ! You're a good sport, when you put the headdress on I laughed for about a minute. The long feathers in the wind moved like they were alive ! Like you said. Nobody turned to stone, that I saw ! 😂 another fun, quality video. cool !
I CAN OBSERVE IN YOUR VIDEOS THAT ILOILO IS CLEAN THERE'S NO SIGNIFACANT RUBBISH AROUND THE AREAS AND ALONG ROADSIDES I HOPE IM CIRRECT🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️THE CREEK OR TIVER IS CLEAN IM SO HAPPY TO NOTICE THAT🤩😍🥰👍👌😀🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
It is generally clean but during festivals like this esp in the downtown area, there's much more people celebrating---more rubbish. What I like tho are the city's cleaners because they are up at 4am to clean the mess of the people night before. It's like no festival happened the morning after coz of the clean streets. I wish people and tourists would be more responsible throwing their trash tho.
It's like watching a clinic on how to do a walk around video. Meet and talk to attractive interesting people. You definitely have the make people comfortable gene. Very entertaining video.
I'm from Chicago and even folks from across the world knows it's bad 😅🤣 they ain't lying though......except for the politicians in this hell hole of a city. Can't wait to go back to iloilo!!
Hope you enjoyed the pastillas 🥛🐮🍬Similar to the first dessert/candy that I learned as a child to make : yema. Pastillas r made with milk or condensed milk I believe & yema usually contains at minimum condensed milk, egg yolks, & peanuts or other nut for outer crunch layer. But there are lots of versions probably. It is so easy to make, except for the stickiness, which kids love anyway! It is custard “category” but to me it more reminds me of USA fudge (non chocolate varieties). I read that making & selling yema is popular for children in Philippines to earn pocket money, kinda like our kids’ lemonade stands in front of our houses. 👦🏻👑♥️✝️
I passed through IloIlo I didn't spend much time there because the part I saw was not that impressive. I am surprised it's expensive. The restaurant row on the boardwalk was just expensive and strangely cut off from the boardwalk! Looks like you were there at a good time to meet alot of pretty ladies. Get back out there buddy and find the right one!
I won't be surprised if one day you'd want to be naturalized. You're so in your element already. You're starting to become a resident fixture of Iloilo. Everyone knows you! hahaha Keep making videos my good man!
ilomination tribes passed by me in Atria 6:00pm and finished before 9:00pm...then went to sm city for the drones and fireworks... Megaworld is super late with everything!!!
Hi I just saw your youtube channel and wanted to ask where in Iloilo is the best and affordable hotels or beach resort. I planning trip there for 1 to 2 days just to see what its like snd also where is a good ppace to rent a car or motorcycle. Pls let me know thanks and hopefully i get to meet you.
Don't buy into the media portrayal of Chicago. The city is safe and absolutely beautiful. Whenever someone talks badly about it without actually living there, it reflects badly on that person, not the city.
@@alexdetagxi8148 Chicago has an iconic world-class skyline and the entire lakefront is by law required to be open to the public as a gigantic park. If you don't think Chicago is absolutely beautiful in the spring, summer, and fall (and arguably winter if you can handle it), you've clearly never been there. There's a reason the Chicago architecture cruise is considered by the American Institute of Architects to be one of the most definitive ways to experience any city on the planet.
all the securiity guards with shot guns in the philippines out in front of stores and hotels some have even scene miltary riffles who does not feel safe in the philippines
The main purpose of the security guards in malls and other establishments is to deter thieves. That's why lots of looting and robbery are happening in the US.

You’re really a good vloger. You’re making it too easy. Being solo is your game bro!
Awesome as always. What's with all the Queenslanders there? Probably getting away from the heat here. It's been shocking here for weeks now 👍
Close to 20k mike!!😮

Basta Ilongga Gwapa, Mike!

Those guys shows more respect to the public.
You know everybody. Nice report on the festival.
where is the vedio of the soundshow in Dinagyang
Not sure what you mean?
nice 👍
Dude! Try to visit Davao City, Samal Island, Bukidnon, Mount Apo, Cagayan etc.
Got a house on Samal..paradise ❤️
From the great vine, I think that will be his next exploration after his Luzon trip. So will just stay tuned.
wow! I've been dreaming to own a house in Samal. Perhaps you can guide me thru.
@@davidscott820
Luzon is very polluted and very overcrowded and bad traffic

Wish im there than here in cold Toronto
I was you once thinking the same thing!

Yea that is true, there are only come parts of Chicago (which I have been) that are not a place to visit at night.
Well I don't know about beautiful but Springfield and St. Louis would be a better choice

An another great wlog. I forgot how 2 live last time i was there... august-october 22. Should have done better but sick wife at that time.
Hey M, you are winning the viewing battle by FAR with you-know-who!
Ur too much of a gentleman to mention anything I guess but it’s true!
hi sir i am i
looking at u from guyana
❤❤❤
You should have applied for Media pass ..They’re giving media pass for vloggers that covering Dinagyang.
Last year they were P2800 for media pass and so we passed last year too. I can save money and still get footage
Almost didn't recognized you with your haircut!
You lost a bit of weight, too. But all in all still looking good!
🙏🏽🙏🏽💙
For the Algorithm
Wish u could find another Filipina....
Darwin is the farthest capital city to go to from any city in Australia. Darwin is also the most costly to live in i believe
Canberra is.
I believe it's Perth the farthest isolated city in the entire Australia. It's in Western Australia far from any civilization. U can Google it. Thanks
❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍
all the securiity guards with shot guns in the philippines out in front of stores and hotels some have even scene miltary riffles who does not feel safe in the philippines
So many lots of shooting incident on Australia compared to Philippines
The main purpose of the security guards in malls and other establishments is to deter thieves. That's why lots of looting and robbery are happening in the US.
