I am part Boholano and Boronganon(grew up in Bohol, but my Mother is from Borongan), watching these past few vlogs of yours made me miss the place so much. I worked there for 6 months last year as a visiting Doctor at the Provincial Hospital. In those past 6 months, not only did I come to realize that the waray people are Strong and resilient, but also very caring and warm loving people. I miss serving them and cant wait to go back again this Holiday season. I always say to my peers there is magic in Samar, and its not only by the beautiful nature it offers, but also to the people who call the place home. Thank you Kulas 💯
❤❤❤ thank u so much for visiting my native land, such an honor indeed! U been such an amazing guy & your companions exploring the whole Philippines island. I loved all your vlogs. God bless
if you want to know where the best karinderia any where in the philippines, the trick is to look where the public utility drivers go and where the people flock
It's true...if you notice that there's a lot of taxi or tricycle parked in front of a carenderia...and the place is full of drivers you can be sure that the food there is good and the price is reasonable.
Watching from Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA. I was born and raised in Sabang South, Borongan, Eastern Samar but I’ve never been to Ando Island. Someday I hope. Thanks Kulas for featuring my hometown. Be safe always. God Bless.
Great side trip to Ando Island! I love your escorts to the beach. How awesome it is that kids that young can safely lead you to the beach like that and enjoy the nature that's all around them.
Kulas, thanks for this amazing vlog! I can totally relate how wonderful & kind the people from Samar, Philippines because my dad was from Samar. I have so many cousins from Samar, ( the Durans ), but never really got acquainted with most of them. Life has put us into different trajectories of life! Sad, but that's how life is! Thanks Kulas, this vlog is closer to my heart ! Take care, & enjoy your journeys!
❤❤❤greetings Kyla’s, I must say that you are the most adventurous vlogger of all the foreign bloggers, bar none. You are not afraid to venture out alone, always confident of yourself that you will run into the local children like into these children who willingly accompany you walking into the forest. How cool is that!!! You are Amazing Kyle, carry on young Kulas🤗🤗🤗👌👌👌👌👌👌
Hi Kulas! We've been following your vlogs. Taking my kids to visit the Philippines (Motherland!) for the first time. We're SO excited! My eleven year old's wish is to "go on an island that is small enough that I can run around the edge of it in a complete circle!" I thought, "Let's ask Kulas! He'll know where to find an island like that." 😄 Please give us some ideas of where to go. You would make this boy's dream come true! I don't know any Filipino who knows the Philippines better than you. I wish you could lead us there yourself! 🤔 Then I got this great idea that you should start your own tour guide business. You can vet locals tourists like me can hire as trusted guides in different parts of the Philippines. Just a thought and a wish! Thank you for reminding me how amazing the Philippines and the Filipinos are! 😍
The video also made me missed my family❤. This was it. My son in Borongan told me you were in the City. I asked him to extend my regards and do Shoutout if he happens to see you again.❤
Balingbing fruit, Kyle, watching from Vancouver. You saw the Atis tree and the Balingbing tree. Now you got to see StarApple and Chico tree and many more tropical fruits. Enjoying the hot weather in Pinas while myself starting to feel the fall season getting colder now actually.🇨🇦🇵🇭
These family youmet and owns the boat has wisely invested their earnings in the Philippines,Yukon is very cold but salaries are much higher compared to the other provinces in Canada.watching fr Montréal.
I stayed at Pirates Cove Resort in 2013 which was, and maybe still is, owned by and American. He had come to the Philippines in the 1960s looking for the best surf spots. He told me that due to the Pacific and the the islands off shore that Borongon had the best surf spots in the Philippines. So if you are a surfer head there. Power On.
Katuwa Meron kang mga lil bodyguards...;)😊 That's one of the perks of living in a rural area, people are more trusting and kids have lots of fun and roaming freely!❤
Hi Kulas, nice you drop by Borongan, you didn't visit to our Barangay, where the airport is, you been there before, next time you will be back to Borongan i will show you the best place to surf so you and Brit can see it, big waves and its a little hidden community not so far from borongan.
Kyle, that is a star fruit or “balimbing.” You can snack on it. Others would dip it in salt if it is sour but it can be sweet sometimes, when very ripe. It is juicy and others would put them in sinigang, to make the soup sour. Nice community. Thank you and Power On!
Balimbing (Tagalog name, Balingbing in Bisaya) is star fruit or carambola in English. It is actually closely related to Kamias (or Iba), those very sour fruits which look like tiny cucumbers. They are used in the same way in sour soups. We had balimbing trees growing up. Ours were sweet when ripe though, but yes, very sour when green. Like all sour fruits, we commonly ate them with salt.
Wouldn't it be an awesome project to showcase Canada coast-to-coast? Bring along Therine and Brett might tag along as well! I'm sure you'll meet Filipinos in every Canadian city and each one has a story that they would love to share. Cheers, Kulas!
Our Food in samar is a bit bland in saltiness because we use (Kuyog, Ginamos, Hipon, Sisi, just to name a few) and most of our food are simple but fresh. Like fish, veg or Carabeef etc 4:45
It's amusing to see you tried to learn the waray2 language ( dialect) Kulas. Just a small tip: Good afternoon in Waray is ...maupay NGA kulop. Not maupay NA kulop. Keep safe Kulas and Bret
@@BecomingFilipino yes you're right. Sorry for my mistake in translation coz my focus is on the word NGA instead of NA. Another one is good evening in Waray is maupay nga gab-i.
It’s really amazing everytime you eat in the karinderia! How you react when you taste the food it’s like it’s always your first time to try it! Nagutom lugod ako 😂 Paghinay pirmi sa iyo paglakawon! Super apir! 🎉❤
You had a star fruit it is related to bilimbi or cucumber tree or Kamias and it is sort of like sweet or sour 🍋➡🥒🥒🥒 And it taste like a peach 🍋➡🍑 And you had a banana heart or banana blossom in the eatery 🍌🍑 And the banana cue that you had was crispy much more caramel coating 🍌🍌 And they plant sweet potatoes in the yard 🍠🍠🍠🌿🌿🌿 You are walking in the woods like Tarzan 🌳🌳🌳 And they even had a lemon tree near the port and the lemons are really big 🌳🍋🍋🍋 And you even had a buko or coconut water in the yard 🥥💦💧
As they sa Kulas: It's a small world and the peoples of the world are actually related or has something in common, you just have to talk to discover that. Thankfully you are tabi-an Kulas, you discover quirks in our connections easily. :)
Kulas ur tour guide that's my neighbours kids in Ando Island 😅😅..Thank u dude for showing the beautiful Island of Ando,that's the place where I came from,hoping to be back home nxt year..I have seen my fellow Andohanon somehow❤

Balimbing or Starfruit, One of my favorite snacks when I was a Kid. I like it with a bit of salt.
wow its my home town kulas
😂 nice kaayo ka Kulas, katawa ko nimo nga naka lipay. Laog kaayo ka ba😊❤❤❤
Hello Kulas, I recommend you to visit and Explore Canawayon island, it's located in San Isidro Northern Samar..
Kyle, that is a star fruit or “balimbing.” You can snack on it. Others would dip it in salt if it is sour but it can be sweet sometimes, when very ripe. It is juicy and others would put them in sinigang, to make the soup sour. Nice community. Thank you and Power On!
amazing ❤
Power on!
One day at a time.
Nice cross island entourage !

In Spanish that star fruit is called ; Caremelo and tastes kinda like a watery apple.
Keep safe happy and healthy
Kabayan Kulas, Hope someday you visit here in Whitehorse Yukon.

❤ Cool kulas. Taga dito me eh haha.
3:47, what a feast Kulas! Dami mong foods.😋 Amping Kulas. Super apir.🤙
Nice kulas thats is my province
It's amusing to see you tried to learn the waray2 language ( dialect) Kulas. Just a small tip: Good afternoon in Waray is ...maupay NGA kulop. Not maupay NA kulop. Keep safe Kulas and Bret
Good afternoon is "Maupay nga Kulop" :)
Aga is for the morning po.
@@BecomingFilipino yes you're right. Sorry for my mistake in translation coz my focus is on the word NGA instead of NA.
Another one is good evening in Waray is maupay nga gab-i.
Gata puso ng saging is good and healthy awesome food youve got there so the place

"Trust in the Universe ... and it will take care of you." -- Kulas' mantra ... This vlog is proof of that, Kyle. 👍🏻🤙
It’s really amazing everytime you eat in the karinderia! How you react when you taste the food it’s like it’s always your first time to try it! Nagutom lugod ako 😂 Paghinay pirmi sa iyo paglakawon! Super apir! 🎉❤
Good luck, Kulas!

You had a star fruit it is related to bilimbi or cucumber tree or Kamias and it is sort of like sweet or sour 🍋➡🥒🥒🥒
And it taste like a peach 🍋➡🍑
And you had a banana heart or banana blossom in the eatery 🍌🍑
And the banana cue that you had was crispy much more caramel coating 🍌🍌
And they plant sweet potatoes in the yard 🍠🍠🍠🌿🌿🌿
You are walking in the woods like Tarzan 🌳🌳🌳
And they even had a lemon tree near the port and the lemons are really big 🌳🍋🍋🍋
And you even had a buko or coconut water in the yard 🥥💦💧
hello kulas can you visit my home town sulat e samar they have so many resort there,thank you so much and take care always every trip.
Another adventure for you kulas
As they sa Kulas: It's a small world and the peoples of the world are actually related or has something in common, you just have to talk to discover that. Thankfully you are tabi-an Kulas, you discover quirks in our connections easily. :)
Have you ever been sick from eating the local food? I was only in Philippines for 2 weeks recently - I was okay, but being somewhat cautious. Thanks.
Kulas ur tour guide that's my neighbours kids in Ando Island 😅😅..Thank u dude for showing the beautiful Island of Ando,that's the place where I came from,hoping to be back home nxt year..I have seen my fellow Andohanon somehow❤
so many tour guides in Ando hahaha Power On!
@@BecomingFilipino come back Kulas nxt summer of May,witness the fiesta celebration there 😄
Another unbeaten beach path discovered again by Kulas!
The fruit you eat is really a star fruit it’s called balimbing in tagalog
Balimbing im so shocked when I saw the price here in middle east.
The fruit is balimbing, I guess it is related to the similar iba.
Balimbing. Star fruit. Many local names Kulas.
😂😂😂😂 grabe laag pa more
Kulas , visit me one day in Montreal !
"SLIPPERY "
Danlog - a bisayan word.
Madulas - a tagalog word
Digyas or dakin-as is a bisayan word the action word of the man when his footstep was in slippery place.
Omg is Therine gonna be going to Canada? 😍
Balimbing❤
Samar is really underrated
We call it Balimbing here.
