Haters are going to hate. I think you're killing it man, I really enjoy your content. I can talk crap about them but that doesn't do any good. I've been living here in Northern Luzon for about a year. I love this place I just keep to myself. Keep it up man
You summed it up in three words. "It doesn't matter" I'm happy for the joy your son brings you. Very good observation of life Stephen. Excellent video! I loved the video of you and your lass and your young un when you went for a walk..
Mate you are awesome, you wear your heart on your sleeve which is refreshing for a you tuber, just remember the goal of the trolls is to get a reaction, any reaction, auto delete them. No need to give them the satisfaction of knowing you have been distracted by their silliness. And yes they are jealous, you have found something they don't have...happiness and contentment
Steven, I don't know if it was pure genius strategy on your part, but your follow up video to this one sure brought out all all the hundreds of people who love living in the Philippines. Perfect counterpoint to some of the haters commenting on this video ...Awesome setup 👏👏👏😆
Since I moved here, I have become enchanted with the "life" in the people. Their existence is hard but they meet it head on and enjoy themselves. More than I did. The first two words of Bisaya I learned were Palihug and Salamat. Please and Thank You. That will get you further in life than anything. Also Stephen said not to raise your voice, shame or embarass a Filipino. You do these simple things, which apply anywhere on this planet, and life couldn't be easier. Best Regards and Best Wishes!
You are my go to You-Tuber. You tell it like it is. I live in Mindinao and you are spot on! The bad goes with the good. I love it here! To heck with the haters, They are the kind of people I moved here to get away from. Keep doing what you do!
You're a great guy and I appreciate your videos. I know a little bit about psychology and I will tell you that some of those folks you're referencing are sociopaths and psychopaths. They don't respond to emotional issues the same way normal human beings do. You can't expect them to behave like a normal person. They feed off of the negative energy of other people. They don't respond to these issues the same way a normal person does. They could, for example, cause someone to feel great pain and not have an emotional reaction whatsoever. It's just unfortunate but we have to deal with sociopaths and psychopaths in the world. Just block them as necessary.
I am currently in the Philippines looking for my place in the sun. Your channel is my go to channel for a real perspective. Your opinion is appreciated. I love the life you have made for yourself here! F the haters my friend
I really enjoy your videos an appreciate you sharing your life and stories as well with us.. I say just keep living your happy life and delete the negative people who are continuing to be negative an hateful just ignore those you have more love than the haters who want to be jealous cause they aren't happy in there life.
I don’t understand why any RUclipsr gives any air to trolls. It’s just a part of the game and you got to know they exist when you choose to step into the public domain. These are sad irrelevant people with pathetic lives. Simply chuckle at their stupidity, ban them and delete their comments. It’s simple. One keystroke and they’re gone! How many annoyances in life are so easy to get rid of? Why waste time on this stuff? I see this over and over. I’m a lawyer with a thick skin. You got to just ignore this nonsense and stay focused on the positive. Nobody cares about any RUclipsr trolls and it’s a total reflection on them and not you.
As your Son said today "it's muddy!". Trolls love the mud! The sunshine of your vlogs drive them crazy! You tell your past faults, but show that that happiness/contentment of family and life can happen! God bless! Mark from DC
Hello Richard, I think its better for my mental health, I'm not in the rat race anymore. Find time to do the things i like doing. The roosters can be a bit challenging at times though hahaha
I am a subscriber of afew channels, mainly ones from thailand, I like to make comments on afew, usually to praise the content, or voice an opinion, now you are saying you have some trolls in you're comments, as I have said I do make some comments, but I get trolls on my comments and I'm not a youtuber, at first I used to bite back at them, and answer to them, but I have learned it is better to just ignore them, at least you have the power to block them , the trolls are usually the ones who have done nothing with thier lives, sitting at home, no money, no hopes . I really enjoy you're content , honest and sincere content is hard to get from youtubers , take care my friend Ken from manchester
If people have got nothing nice to say why comment?why even watch find a compatible content creator. I really enjoy your videos Stephen eventhough I personally wouldn't visit Phillipines but I love learning about other cultures and respecting other values. So thanks for sharing your gorgeous nature walks, family and Jackie ❤🐶
Haters Will hate, they are just jealous. My wife is filipina 20 years younger than me,I have House on Mindoro,Town called Bongabong.keep going bruv 💪💪🇬🇧🇵🇭
You answered your own question: haters are illeterates AND (not OR) they don't have a life. Keep dealing with them the way you have been doing so far - BLOCK THOSE IDIOTS!!!!! They're not worth your time and attention. Treat them as if they don't exist, because, in a way, they DON'T.
I love watching your videos and can't understand Trolls and Haters either, you are one of the few Philippine based RUclipsrs that is really careful and mindful of what they say as not to offend anyone. So i say stuff them and keep doing what your doing, you love your life their and that the most important thing.
The range of the condition of the human heart in mankind is on display in everyway everyday. Good and evil and is real, just as God said. I agree with your take on things. Take care man.
You have a lovely family and life stephen trolls are just morons with very little grey mattervso happy your hapoy their uk is a disaster now your correct be happy mate love from scotland❤
I love your Chanel keep doing it do not worry about the hatters I have a lovely wife from Davao and we love the island of mindanao and stay positive enjoy your life do not get said of the bad messages busy looking good my friend!
There are so many negative people around mate. I've lived here for 15 years and I admit it took me a long time to be happy here, but I have a great life and wouldn't live anywhere else. As I type I have a friend sending crap negative messages about politics and I just laughed at him. Love your outlook on life mate.
i normally hate on older expat vloggers that dont take care of themselfs, but you have the right mindset. You should start researching the paleo diet to learn whats healthy and not, improve your own ability.
These people are not worth spending anytime over, delete and forget. Trolls are pathetic. Your subscribers are enjoying your content, thats the main thing my friend.
For an English guy ..it’s especially poignant right now as the UK is s💩it show. Ya walk out in you shorts and t shirt in the heat, can only talk for myself that it’s simply amazing. Ya have a beach usually a stones throw away ..the positives far out way the negatives..plus if you’ve got a good Filipina..your sorted.
To each their own. If I lived in England, I'd be more concerned about the rampant knife crime and groooming gangs. The English police instead focus upon arresting folk for off-color FB posts and tweets
It's OK to disagree, but it's not OK to use hate speech! If the content you produce is upsetting 😡 to them, don't watch! I enjoy your content, even my wife here in Africa asks me how you and your family is doing! So keep up the great content! We love your family, it's just human ❤ reminds me of John Lenons song "what if the world had no borders" paraphrased! We are all humans with feelings. Gaslighting should not be allowed! You have great content Stephen! When my wife enjoys a podcast, that makes it special.
We don’t have same emotions! Our brains are either educated on differences of the latter due to interference and attack in the real world that has consequences! Duh
They are just jealous of you as you have a happy life plus you're getting more subscribers as you go along just ignore those haters they have nothing better to do with their lives.
These people are emboldened by not being able to find them, they would never say what they say to your face. So for me it’s very easy just to giggle and ignore them, when they reply with just under nonsense. Don’t take anything they say to heart because in the end they really don’t matter to anything happening in your life, they don’t pay your bills, they don’t worry about your medical, and in the end they just don’t matter! Just be who you are and be happy!! Best wishes
I visit with my wife every 6 months for 3 weeks each visit..i feel totally safe and if anything get positive discrimination being white..we go to the local mall and the security always wave me through while checking everyone else..i walk around in kabankalan on my own and go to breadbox every morning for pandesal and bread and the locals are always polite and nice... your treated like a king here and everyone always calls you sir...yes the infrastructure isn't brilliant,,but name me a country where it is... here you can see a doctor the same day or have dentistry the same day.. yes you have to pay,, but i cannot do this in the uk even if i pay... every country has its positives and negatives...but if you are an honest person you will love the Philippines
@@richardbrown8881 Well said Richard. I feel the same way. The people here are great and it's very safe. People that haven't been here ways say it's not.
😂i love trolls they make me laugh and curious about..who hurt them? How mucj do they weigh? Hows their common sense? Or maybe they are living double life😅 for most of them im sure.
You have to have a thick skin to be a vlogger...I enjoy your chanel Steve,I don't always agree with everything but it's all about opinions which were all entitled to have 👍
I saw the troll post before you deleted it. It always seems to be the expat. If they have such a great life compared to yours, why ae they here commenting about it? Never understood the bitterness , hatred, and jealousy. Also why do they care if you bought a house. Why does another grown man care what a grown man spends his money on. Keep doing what you are doing. You are living a quiet province life that suits you. We watch cause that is what we hope to do one day ourselves.
More power to Steve, but it's valid for others to hold a contrary view. He's recently vlogged about the risk of losing a house & land if a relationship turns sour, so by raising that topic, he's inviting commenmtary from different viewpoints
Oh for sure you open yourself up to contracting views and opinion, so long as these alternate opinions are civil. Unfortunately what that guy posted was not. Calling the Philippine a shit hole and how Steve's life sucks cause of where he lived.
KV, I didn't see what was written, it certainly sounds distasteful. Although many vloggers highlight and pin such comments, as it drives discussion on their channel, with all the reasonable folk who chime in and chastise them. Debate and discussion increases the views ... and visibility ... and traffic ... and level of interest ... and eyeballs on your posts ... which is the lifeblood of a YT channel
Haters will always hate, Don’t take it personal, when I was a musician I used to get so pissed off at people calling me down but my record producer said any talk is good talk which he was correct, So think of it as a complement, he he I don’t do RUclips because I didn’t leave my personal life out of it, But i enjoy watching others lives here, 5 years happily married, God Bless
Lol I responded to a troll on one of your videos and I had to delete my own comment because I felt dumb even trying to interact with people doing stuff like that. I think I'm just gonna leave comments turned off when I finally upload some serious videos to save myself the headache. 😅
May I offer a view that I have had for many years. There are always the positive and negative sides of life and types of people in varying degrees and levels of consciousness. My thing is that those who are sensible and honest that may opt to criticize would normally offer possible solutions or alternatives or at least throw in their angle of life that may differ for a common goal in mind. Those who only negatively criticize without any purpose are simply insecure. The flip side also is that it is just a reflection of their sharing their misery in life perhaps and could not handle it. I think it is a shout for a subconscious help similar to a crying out like a baby. So I think it is understandable to politely ignore these. We should try not to be affected as, if we do, we are allowing them to drag us to the level they are in. Each level needs the time to evolve to be understood. Lastly, be happy to know that the other side of the pole is there to reaffirm and appreciate your value. It’s got its purpose in the mirror of life.
I'm from small town Oregon, afraid of cities! Now I live in an African city of 4 million people, fellow human beings! I am obedient to the US State Department and stay away from dangerous markets listed by the US State Department! My wife who is local citizen of this country vista those markets weekly, but especially now Americans, especially white Americans are at risk of violence even death because of Trump a known racist, fascist, dictator, and his hate spewing mouth! Because of Trump, Americans can no longer visit foreign countries safely! How sad! How very sad! I may not survive this next few years as an American here! My home, my family all at risk because of Trump!
I'm tired of this. REALITY isn't hate! We don't want other men to go get GOT while being miserable and abused. Warning others is a humanitarian thing to do. Just because people are pointing out risk and danger doesn't mean they're haters. One could say the same about vloggers luring men into a lion's den to get views and make a few hundred dollars on utube at the expense of their failure essentially. Let's respect each other and accept that we have different perspectives. That's it. Peace and Love. Cheers 🍻
What the hating troll doesn't realize is they just upped your algorithm. Who's the fool now. Please, haters, keep watching because at the end of the day, they will hate, and you will get paid. Also, most of these haters also troll other video Philippine producers. They are the same people. I have been tracing them now, and they also have multiple accounts. The primary haters have been tracked to 3 individuals.
You say its very safe but you did say about the guy at the party the other night. He could easily turn againt you. We never know Steven so lets not take our eye off tge ball where ever we are
When you post content online you can't avoid ppl either having criticism or just messing with you🤷 I pin they comments for the world to see😉🫡🤣 deleting comments and blocking ppl is the modern version of ppl not going outside to hide from a bully.. Screw that but I grew up in nyc confrontation is an every day thing
Don't hide the trolls let people engage with them. Engagement is engagement and boosts you in the rankings. Instead of getting irritated by them, just smile and know they are making you money.
It's honestly not worth putting any thought into it.Misery likes company and they love a response.they hate being ignored.they are very sad miserable people.your channel is great but unfortunately whatever you say will get a response, good or bad.nothing you say will make them happy.dont spend one second thinking about the haters,it's time you will never recover.
I have trouble reading comments just because of the negativity. Besides that do you ever miss the fish n chips shops as I do with me being in the USA now?
In Makati there are actually a couple of good British pubs...and I was pleasantly surprised to find that stores like SM have recently started to stock items like Marmite, Branston's Pickles, and a wide range of quality items from Waitrose! Also several M&S small grocery stores have opened...Things are looking up! (No PG Tips though hehe)
Trolls = anyone who questions your narrative .😂 Coming from a dead beat sexpat in dapitan. Opinion if your putting this out there on yt expect blowback as your simply monetizing a mundane boring subsistence existence.😂😂
They have enacted that rule to keep opposing views in cheque. Thus, you end up with a continued corrupted government. And what is "cyber" bullying? Unwarranted Personal attacks? Every hear of "sticks and stones..........."? So the "cyber bullying law" is only to keep the public from speaking out in fear of reprisal. That is why X and Facebook have changed their platforms. No more censorship. Maybe he should choose the "no comment" choice?
consider your trolls and haters a badge of honor to your channel! this means your channel is getting out! YT algorithm is working. Better to have more views than subscribers. Enjoy your children. Have more children's. live long and prosperous! Give your trolls and haters something to comment about! Just gives you more $$$$ keep your life private, keep images around house to minimum, where you live. privacy is sacred, keep your children's/wife face out of videos Cheers!
What ticks me off bout you fellas is commenting on US politics, right away I wonder what right you have to do so. My opinion don’t graze in barren places
Sounds like you live in a barn, Its hard to believe there is no place you can go to make a proper video. Is that what you hear all day, that would drive most people nuts. I need to unfollow this channel if this is what you think is hating i call it being honest.
@@Philippinedreaming No seriously not being negative being honest. If you can't make any videos without the roosters sounding off every second and have no place to work thats crazy. Personally that was big reason I left the Philippines for Thailand. If stating the truth you don't like it i'll just unfollow you the rest of your viewers can give you rainbows and butterflies.
Us trolls are actually supporters. Most of these RUclipsrs are attention seekers and abusers. They chose to live their lives like an open book. When they get out of line we straighten them out. Your a good person Stephan the goodness pours out of you that's why your given a pass from trolls. Your perfect you never screw up or hint at anything bad...
This video is doing the same bad things?! Why are you joining in and lowering yourself to their slimy level? Jesus says to love thy neighbor! And love thy enemy! 😊🙏🏻
Hey sir, you should have parted your hair on the other side, snd you’re not sitting up straight, and you have some kind of British accent, and your shirt is a bad color, ok….just kidding 😎
Steve, you're a bit sensitive if you define a comment saying PH is a shtthole as trrolling. Whilst I love PH myself, it's valid for one to hold the contrary view - although I take your point that they shouldn't view your channel if they're so inclined. As long as they're not talking trassh about your wife, which would definitely be over the line, then I'd think twice before deleting comments
I really like your channel and I love the Philippines as well😊….im moving there as I retire in a few months.
Good luck. I'm on my way in April to get our house built.
You guys will love it. It's such a slow down from the hectic life.
Haters are going to hate. I think you're killing it man, I really enjoy your content. I can talk crap about them but that doesn't do any good.
I've been living here in Northern Luzon for about a year. I love this place I just keep to myself.
Keep it up man
I agree, those who look after themselves spiritually, emotionally and physically have so much to give unconditionally.
Love your style ❤ the only video this morning I watched all the way through 👌from a Lancashire lad living in Perth Australia 👍
You summed it up in three words. "It doesn't matter" I'm happy for the joy your son brings you. Very good observation of life Stephen. Excellent video! I loved the video of you and your lass and your young un when you went for a walk..
Thanks Craig
Jealousy and loneliness drives haters.
Most have no intention, money or ability to move to the PH.
correct!
Envy…trust no one. Block them! 🙏🏽😘
Mate you are awesome, you wear your heart on your sleeve which is refreshing for a you tuber, just remember the goal of the trolls is to get a reaction, any reaction, auto delete them.

KV, I didn't see what was written, it certainly sounds distasteful. Although many vloggers highlight and pin such comments, as it drives discussion on their channel, with all the reasonable folk who chime in and chastise them. Debate and discussion increases the views ... and visibility ... and traffic ... and level of interest ... and eyeballs on your posts ... which is the lifeblood of a YT channel
Haters will always hate, Don’t take it personal, when I was a musician I used to get so pissed off at people calling me down but my record producer said any talk is good talk which he was correct, So think of it as a complement, he he I don’t do RUclips because I didn’t leave my personal life out of it, But i enjoy watching others lives here, 5 years happily married, God Bless
Most Brits are upbeat
Yes sir❤
Lol I responded to a troll on one of your videos and I had to delete my own comment because I felt dumb even trying to interact with people doing stuff like that. I think I'm just gonna leave comments turned off when I finally upload some serious videos to save myself the headache. 😅
The sad truth about it all is, the more hate you receive in the comments lets you know you're doing what others don't have the balls to do themselves.
May I offer a view that I have had for many years.
There are always the positive and negative sides of life and types of people in varying degrees and levels of consciousness.
My thing is that those who are sensible and honest that may opt to criticize would normally offer possible solutions or alternatives or at least throw in their angle of life that may differ for a common goal in mind.
Those who only negatively criticize without any purpose are simply insecure. The flip side also is that it is just a reflection of their sharing their misery in life perhaps and could not handle it. I think it is a shout for a subconscious help similar to a crying out like a baby. So I think it is understandable to politely ignore these.
We should try not to be affected as, if we do, we are allowing them to drag us to the level they are in. Each level needs the time to evolve to be understood.
Lastly, be happy to know that the other side of the pole is there to reaffirm and appreciate your value. It’s got its purpose in the mirror of life.
I'm from small town Oregon, afraid of cities! Now I live in an African city of 4 million people, fellow human beings! I am obedient to the US State Department and stay away from dangerous markets listed by the US State Department! My wife who is local citizen of this country vista those markets weekly, but especially now Americans, especially white Americans are at risk of violence even death because of Trump a known racist, fascist, dictator, and his hate spewing mouth! Because of Trump, Americans can no longer visit foreign countries safely! How sad! How very sad! I may not survive this next few years as an American here! My home, my family all at risk because of Trump!
Not everyone has common sense or any sense 😂
Laugh and delete them. These sad trolls are irrelevant. You can’t rationalize their words and hate, so no point trying.
Take the trolls as a sign that your channel is doing well,Fark em.
RUclipsrs making money sets me off? Yes an no!
I'm tired of this.
REALITY isn't hate!
We don't want other men to go get GOT while being miserable and abused.
Warning others is a humanitarian thing to do.
Just because people are pointing out risk and danger doesn't mean they're haters.
One could say the same about vloggers luring men into a lion's den to get views and make a few hundred dollars on utube at the expense of their failure essentially.
Let's respect each other and accept that we have different perspectives.
That's it.
Peace and Love.
Cheers
🍻
What the hating troll doesn't realize is they just upped your algorithm. Who's the fool now. Please, haters, keep watching because at the end of the day, they will hate, and you will get paid. Also, most of these haters also troll other video Philippine producers. They are the same people. I have been tracing them now, and they also have multiple accounts. The primary haters have been tracked to 3 individuals.
You say its very safe but you did say about the guy at the party the other night. He could easily turn againt you. We never know Steven so lets not take our eye off tge ball where ever we are
When you post content online you can't avoid ppl either having criticism or just messing with you🤷 I pin they comments for the world to see😉🫡🤣 deleting comments and blocking ppl is the modern version of ppl not going outside to hide from a bully..
Screw that but I grew up in nyc confrontation is an every day thing
Don’t mind this troll Stephen… they dont deserve your attention😉
Negative comments speaks of the commenter
Good point Mike. I for the life of cant understand them
Don't hide the trolls let people engage with them. Engagement is engagement and boosts you in the rankings. Instead of getting irritated by them, just smile and know they are making you money.
It's honestly not worth putting any thought into it.Misery likes company and they love a response.they hate being ignored.they are very sad miserable people.your channel is great but unfortunately whatever you say will get a response, good or bad.nothing you say will make them happy.dont spend one second thinking about the haters,it's time you will never recover.
I have trouble reading comments just because of the negativity. Besides that do you ever miss the fish n chips shops as I do with me being in the USA now?
@@ibenglish most definitely I miss fish and chips hahaha. . As strange as it sounds I miss the British boring food
In Makati there are actually a couple of good British pubs...and I was pleasantly surprised to find that stores like SM have recently started to stock items like Marmite, Branston's Pickles, and a wide range of quality items from Waitrose! Also several M&S small grocery stores have opened...Things are looking up! (No PG Tips though hehe)
I’m a friendly troll.😉
I like friendly trolls hahaha
Trolls = anyone who questions your narrative .😂
Coming from a dead beat sexpat in dapitan.
Opinion if your putting this out there on yt expect blowback as your simply monetizing a mundane boring subsistence existence.😂😂
I now get on my smart phone WARNING POTENTIONAL FRAUD with number I don't recognize when rings I never answer of course
It's a good sign that you have trolls. You're getting popular! The best content creators have tons of trolls.
They have enacted that rule to keep opposing views in cheque. Thus, you end up with a continued corrupted government. And what is "cyber" bullying? Unwarranted Personal attacks? Every hear of "sticks and stones..........."? So the "cyber bullying law" is only to keep the public from speaking out in fear of reprisal. That is why X and Facebook have changed their platforms. No more censorship. Maybe he should choose the "no comment" choice?
forget it
consider your trolls and haters a badge of honor to your channel! this means your channel is getting out! YT algorithm is working. Better to have more views than subscribers. Enjoy your children. Have more children's. live long and prosperous! Give your trolls and haters something to comment about! Just gives you more $$$$ keep your life private, keep images around house to minimum, where you live. privacy is sacred, keep your children's/wife face out of videos Cheers!
they are mostly introverts
I sink you have something that they never can have 😊envy pure jealous
DONT Worry about NEGATIVITY from very silly people mate
What ticks me off bout you fellas is commenting on US politics, right away I wonder what right you have to do so. My opinion don’t graze in barren places
Eddieboxer comments were all hates on Phil.
Sounds like you live in a barn, Its hard to believe there is no place you can go to make a proper video. Is that what you hear all day, that would drive most people nuts. I need to unfollow this channel if this is what you think is hating i call it being honest.
Hahahaha here we go. More comments please
@@Philippinedreaming No seriously not being negative being honest. If you can't make any videos without the roosters sounding off every second and have no place to work thats crazy. Personally that was big reason I left the Philippines for Thailand. If stating the truth you don't like it i'll just unfollow you the rest of your viewers can give you rainbows and butterflies.
I actually agree sorry, i'm in the city thank god, I tried living in the province it was horrible sorry.
Us trolls are actually supporters. Most of these RUclipsrs are attention seekers and abusers. They chose to live their lives like an open book. When they get out of line we straighten them out. Your a good person Stephan the goodness pours out of you that's why your given a pass from trolls. Your perfect you never screw up or hint at anything bad...
This video is doing the same bad things?! Why are you joining in and lowering yourself to their slimy level? Jesus says to love thy neighbor! And love thy enemy! 😊🙏🏻
You Broke Bro?
@@Jehovah-r8f far from it
Hey sir, you should have parted your hair on the other side, snd you’re not sitting up straight, and you have some kind of British accent, and your shirt is a bad color, ok….just kidding 😎
Hahahahaha love it.
Steve, you're a bit sensitive if you define a comment saying PH is a shtthole as trrolling. Whilst I love PH myself, it's valid for one to hold the contrary view - although I take your point that they shouldn't view your channel if they're so inclined. As long as they're not talking trassh about your wife, which would definitely be over the line, then I'd think twice before deleting comments
Define "Cyberbully" "Hating" and "Trolling". Censorship is a slippery and dangerous slope. Just look at what happened in 2021.
Agreed
I csn see the trolls do not bother you
