Fantastic Video ! My wife is from Calape-Daanbantayan and the tour was exciting. The ' Old Church ' that you did not get a chance to visit is where we got married 24 years ago ! She is a ' province girl ' and my Cebuana Princess. At our reception Papa said I was his " 8th Son " which was an honor. Love the people, the culture, and my beloved wife ! Keep up your videos...
The owner to Skips beach passed away 12years ago, He was Bruce Lee's 2nd student he taught in the US. Skip Ellsworth. Very interesting place and the family still run it
I am in the process of researching possible move to the Philippines. I totally Love this Video! If and when I get there I will definitely be doing Exploration trips like this!
You have really learnt to go with the flow and not get frustrated when things dont go quite to plan----but hey, you end up seeing more and experiencing more by default. Great tour Rod, thank you
It was great to ride along with you Rod and see the beautiful views around the area. The beach was nice too. I like that old Church it was amazing. The markets are also great to see and I always enjoy them. Thanks for the tour Rod and always take care
I was here 10 years ago. It is a beautiful and quiet beach resort. rooms are comfortable and clean. The price is reasonable. The staff is very nice. the food is good. Nice sandy beach. At low tide, you can walk far into the sea.
As usual Rod you have shown the sites and sounds of the Philippines as only you know how...thanks again for all your positive contributions to showing the true beauty and warmth of this great nation!...God Bless...
Excellent video, nice information. I found me a beautiful province gf. Your videos show me, that j would like to live in between the province and city. Close to the markets and shopping, but in a beautiful quiet area with lovely views
Rod--if you're ever able to veer off to the nearby towns of Medellin and San Remigio, you'll see some nice beach views and resorts. Daan Bantayan is pretty for sure. The quality of light near the ocean is so pretty.. We were lucky--no damage for us back in December although some strong winds and rain.
Thanks Regina. I have been to Medellin and Funtastic Island about 3 years ago. My friend who had a resto here took a few of us to Remigio, her home town, a couple of times and it is an interesting area. Good to hear that you survived the typhoon well.
Major Typhoons rarely hit Cebu. About 1-2 per year. When it does, it's always the Bantayan and Daanantayan area only with the rest of Cebu getting gloomy weather and erratic rain.
Yes it is usually the north Cebu that gets hit. I have stayed up til early in the morning a couple of years ago waiting for typhoons to hit Cebu City and there was barely any wind.
Continues looking forward always watching again and again from Middle East Saudi Arabia OFW PILIPINOS MIGRANT WORKING ABROAD INTERNATIONAL WORLD 🌍🌍🌍 wide globally in 24 / 7 in every day in 3 x a day all all all 11.6+ million Pilipinos migrants working abroad international professional jobs....
Ahhh good old golden sands. Awesome place. Ended up spending two weeks there on and off, little expensive yes but well worth imo. Just got back home on the 18th going back early April. Nice video 👍🏼
Thanks Mike. I first moved to Phoenix (Gilbert) in the mid 80's and lived at Baseline Rd and Gilbert Rd. Everything south of me was cotton fields so a lot has changed.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 I first moved to Gila Bend in 84 and Phoenix was a much more peaceful place to live for sure. Now there's a freeway 10 miles south of baseline called the 202. The jolibee's is about 10 or 11 miles south of where you lived.
That beach is awesome! The smaller resorts in province areas usually have good deals. Sometimes it is better to get there and check it out first than committing to a place on line without seeing it first hand. We made that mistake on our last vacation. Although we had a good time, the area was not great where we got the room. We have been posting that trip in our last few videos. Jollibee is a big bonus with our kids. Give them a Jollibee, a pool or beach and they think they are in Heaven. Maly loves going to the markets when in a new place. We try to get a place we can cook our own food, so her and Grandma like to go get their own fish to cook. I bet they would have loved that market!
Thanks Steve. This is a much less touristy area but still has nice long beach to enjoy. It is difficult to choose places based on a few pictures online.
I would like to import one of those white vans and make a camper van out of it. The water looked super clear, very cool. I would have liked to have got a better look at the girls who were dressed in fancy dresses right after the church on the left. Might have been cultural dresses of some type.
Well you did it again... great video Rod...the wife and i will be going on a road trip in March. Yes the best decision i made was coming to the Philippines...always hear people say never say never...well for me i have no desire to go back to the states...here to stay so much to see and do. This is the time I'm glad we have a nice car with a/c...thanks Rod...keep giving me ideas.😁🙀
Thanks Jim. I have heard about Daanbantayan, seen the beach from a ferry, and finally decided to check it out as I was very close. It is an interesting non-touristy area with a nice beach. Having your own vehicle can make exploring much more enjoyable so safe travels to you and your wife.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 would you happen to have the beach resort's name? the beach is really beautiful. My wife (she's american) and I stayed at Kandaya beach resort 2 years ago after a few days in malapasqua island to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. The beach at kandaya resort was nothing to get excited about. thank you
It is sad to see that there are now buildings right up against the ocean. When I first came here back in 2000, buildings were very far from the ocean. All you could see is the seashore.
There is also a Jollibee at Southcenter mall outside Sea-Tac airport (near Seattle, WA). I've never eaten there, so I don't know for sure, but the sweet spaghetti sauce...just can't do it :-D haha. There is a very good Filipino restaurant in south Tacoma (on S. Tacoma way) near the 512 park and ride called Paraiso Filipino Native Foods. Kalami kaayo!
Thanks ryckroldan. I use the GoPro 8 black for most of my videos. I also have the Canon SX70 superzoom. You can get the Canon SX 60 for less than the SX 70 and it is almost as good.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 thank you so much for your reply. I feel inspired by vloggers like you that upload informative videos that not only entertain but also help viewers in their future trips or endeavors. I ride a mountain bike and I want to film and upload trails for others to discover and may use them for physical activities, cycling, hiking or just to "get lost" in nature.
Great video Rod as always, thanks. Off topic but would be interested in what you think about the Covi19 and living here? Went into ICM in Tagbilaran today to get food, hardly anyone with masks on, maybe because OUT OF STOCK. I will be heading to the USA in a few months and can't find a 3M N95 mask anywhere. Ordered some on Lazada, heard some found that are counterfiet.You see many people in Cebu wearing them? Thanks again.
Thanks William. It seems each day fewer people are wearing masks. Fortunately, the PH is one of the nations without a lot of people affected at this point in time. We will see what happens as time goes by.
Thanks John. My gf likes it and she also gives some to her family as they enjoy it also. It was much cheaper than at the Carbon Public market in Cebu City. Much of it comes from Bantayan Island just an hour away by ferry.
I really enjoyed your video would be great to be able go get to visit the s how. Get to see them thru you and others would love to see more of the white backed and Markets the people do seem nice and pleasant we'd have to ride n the rick-shaw motorcycle m at and are don think so 🙄🤣, Thanks fr sharing !😇🇮🇱💖🇺🇲
Thanks Dennis. Many things can be bought cheaper here especially in the public markets, but not always. I am always surprised at how may imported items make it to the province markets, like oranges from Australia or New Zealand.
Sometimes life in the provinces sucks. As an example, there hasn't been a beer delivery to Camiguin for a month. There is almost no beer on Camiguin Island right now.
I like the Y7 Yummy burger with the cheese and bacon order it without the special sauce and put some sweet baby rays on it and have a nice cold Heineken man what a good filipino meal.
Foreigners can own the building but not the land so you have to lease the land. If you are married to a Filipino, the land is in her name, and it is best to have a lawyer draw up a lease so she doesn't decide to throw you out one day.
Yes Jollibee is in SE Phoenix metro in Chandler AZ. Jollibee will take over the world! Hehe. They are set to open 145 stores in the USA in the next 2 years. Buy Jollibee stock 😊.
@@lionhearted1969 . There was talk a couple of years ago about a Jollibee in Australia. Would have been on the Eastern side.I live on the Western side. But it fell through
Hi Rod, I understand the word challenging being married to a filipina for close to 20 years, i really liked Daanbantayan and went regularly whe i was at Meddilin also Maya and I remember the damage fro typhoon yolanda particularly a petrol station that looked like someone tird the steel work in knots
Glad to see that you are continuing to get out of the big city and explore the provinces. If you really want to be frustrated, try basing your communications in a relationship on Google translate app. 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
LOL. I have had varying degrees of success with translators. I tried it in China 15 years ago using a translator and it was a major failure as you have experienced apparently.
Boom -apparently you're supposed to say that if your the first to view the video . Anywho, they have free range cattle there just like their are in Texas. People in the U.S. complain about noise pollution from jet flight paths as they take-off from the airport and from cars on highways whereas in the Philippines it's complaints stemming from karaoke and roosters One common trait among people in the provinces ( from what I've seen in a number of videos) is the fact that they don't swim!! Rod , the Jollibee is in Chandler not Phoenix. Daniel
Thanks Daniel. I also see a lot of "free range" goats...or they just ate through their tether. Noise is an issue all over the world definitely. Many Filipinos do not swim even if they live next to the ocean and others are like fish with many kids using the sea as their playground.
Thanks Roger. I never met Mike but I did watch a lot of his videos and corresponded with him a couple of times. His information had an influence on me moving here. He will be missed.
I rented many times, most places accept your foreign drives license as long is in English, be prepared to leave your passport as a guarantee to return the motorbike, it is a common practice and it is ok.
Yes Rod province girls are better my wife second pinay from near Bogo we are in Nailon thanks for showing that i want to ride up on the bike again i missed those resorts there you should go to Virgin Beach its on the way back on the coast road the owner is a American like you Ron Perry is that owner you there and stay a night pool and all there
I have a gf from Cebu they understand what you say when it comes to food or travel they don’t care about your choice don’t fool yourself if you choose not to make waves that’s ok but don’t fool yourself
@14:00 I’ll be retiring in a few months, you’ll probably see me in a Luzon city cruising around looking for a materialistic and corrupted young lady lol
@@carlcutts7714 Please tell : who is not corrupt in some way, unless one is an enlightended monk. An advise from a wise very old guy. If one aspire for a young partner, be sure you have the financial capabilities (not soley the meager retirement sum to meet all the possible whims and caprices of what you corrupt young lady), physically (self-explaining and obvious requirement), and morally fit (capability to distinguised from what's right or wrong, at least)
IM SICK OF BEING IN AMERICA, I WANT TO DISCOVER ANOTHER COUNTRY, PERHAPS PHILLIPPINES IN THE FUTURE, MY STAR WILL SHINE IN THAT BELOVED COUNTRY....WAIT FOR ME IN THE NEXT COUNTRY....SO, I WILL INVEST IN SOME FACTORIES AND ENTERPRISES.....
This is Cebu suburban, the most visited island by foreigners but....not many people speak good English....so the myth: every one in the Philippines speak English is not true, or exaggerated.....and their bragging that the Philippines is the 3 largest English speaking country is also false.... in big cities like Manila and Cebu, most people know English ( becoz it’s mandatory in school), but less than 5% speak English every days at home....the only one country in Asia where people speak English regularly in public and at home is Singapore.
The English comprehension varies widely. Pronunciation is different here so it can take a trained ear also to understand some and to learn the local language. My experience is that over 60% of Filipinos can communicate effectively in English with many doing very well. Some are just shy or uncomfortable also. I have had many taxi drivers tell me they have poor English and only 6th grade education but I have had a good conversation with them.
I did say most Filipinos KNOW English because it’s mandatory in schools, but they don’t speak it regularly, they will ended up can not communicate in English , 99% of them speak Tagalog or dialects to each other, so it can not be called an English speaking country as they used to brag. English is wildly understood, but NOT wildly spoken. Even in the U.S most Filipino Americans speak their language with each other most of times, only young people born there do speak English more then Tagalog.
We can speak english nd 95% understand foreigner!!,even uneducated person or kids n rural area can speak little english!! U never understand bcz u can't speak multilingual or quadlingual..

Thanks Spurlin and good luck with you plans. There are lots of options here and I have just scratched the surface.
Good video Rod. I can see I missed out by not visiting there. It's okay, I'm going to take another trip out West and Daanbantayan can be a waypoint.
Thanks Robert. Yes, I am glad we made this side trip to Daanbantayan. It has potential.
The whole area at the northern tip of Cebu Island is amazing, plus the wonderful Bantayan Island. I like to be there
I agree. Great beaches there.
Looks nice a great video enjoyed it yes the jurney can be better than the destination ivv often said that to friends

I am American I have a Filipino wife she lives in Budokan.
Good to hear from you Steve. Take care.
I call those Journeys, Adventures! LOL!
Thanks. I also love the journey and adventure.
I have a hard time believing that "an area with many resorts" was somehow misunderstood. That sounds like a scam situation.
I asked my gf what she had told the driver and the translation was more than a little vague so the drivers weren't sure where to take us I think.
I have a gf from Cebu they understand what you say when it comes to food or travel they don’t care about your choice don’t fool yourself if you choose not to make waves that’s ok but don’t fool yourself
Thanks Intuitive Sean.

@14:00 I’ll be retiring in a few months, you’ll probably see me in a Luzon city cruising around looking for a materialistic and corrupted young lady lol
Good luck with your plans. Have fun and stay safe.
They all corrupt
@@carlcutts7714 ??
@@carlcutts7714 Please tell : who is not corrupt in some way, unless one is an enlightended monk. An advise from a wise very old guy. If one aspire for a young partner, be sure you have the financial capabilities (not soley the meager retirement sum to meet all the possible whims and caprices of what you corrupt young lady), physically (self-explaining and obvious requirement), and morally fit (capability to distinguised from what's right or wrong, at least)
Bus seems too cheap-5hrs =100pesos!

IM SICK OF BEING IN AMERICA, I WANT TO DISCOVER ANOTHER COUNTRY, PERHAPS PHILLIPPINES IN THE FUTURE, MY STAR WILL SHINE IN THAT BELOVED COUNTRY....WAIT FOR ME IN THE NEXT COUNTRY....SO, I WILL INVEST IN SOME FACTORIES AND ENTERPRISES.....
Thanks Remo. We will wait for you.
This is Cebu suburban, the most visited island by foreigners but....not many people speak good English....so the myth: every one in the Philippines speak English is not true, or exaggerated.....and their bragging that the Philippines is the 3 largest English speaking country is also false....
in big cities like Manila and Cebu, most people know English ( becoz it’s mandatory in school), but less than 5% speak English every days at home....the only one country in Asia where people speak English regularly in public and at home is Singapore.
The English comprehension varies widely. Pronunciation is different here so it can take a trained ear also to understand some and to learn the local language. My experience is that over 60% of Filipinos can communicate effectively in English with many doing very well. Some are just shy or uncomfortable also. I have had many taxi drivers tell me they have poor English and only 6th grade education but I have had a good conversation with them.
I did say most Filipinos KNOW English because it’s mandatory in schools, but they don’t speak it regularly, they will ended up can not communicate in English , 99% of them speak Tagalog or dialects to each other, so it can not be called an English speaking country as they used to brag. English is wildly understood, but NOT wildly spoken. Even in the U.S most Filipino Americans speak their language with each other most of times, only young people born there do speak English more then Tagalog.
We can speak english nd 95% understand foreigner!!,even uneducated person or kids n rural area can speak little english!!
U never understand bcz u can't speak multilingual or quadlingual..
Only the elders not speak much English....much
Hmmm rip off philippines specially van or car rentals they just make it up it is more expensive than Uk and europe
Just another miserable place !
