Philippines is the best, even without much money,what most important is you have the RICE,and some important needs. It's not a big deal if we have no savings money. Filipino are easy-going,hospitality,most are friendly even sometimes the English not perfect but still can communicate, nobody's perfect,proud Pinay here. We can smile even if sometimes life was so hard. Also they can still find a way how to earn for their everyday food.
I wish all foreign visitors to the country are like both of you, kind, EDUCATED, well travelled, and understanding of social, cultural and economic situations. Travel is give and take, learn teach and share together as one. Take care!
I really enjoy listening Sergie the way he talk he's funny while he telling a story about what he experience here in our country PH that's why I attracted to be his avid viewer same with Valentina hopping that can stay longer our simple life here in our country enjoy staying here take care always and god bless you❤❤
I am impressed. Philippines is not rich or powerful country. But we are contented with simple and happy life. We filipinos should learn from foreigners like you to love our country more and more
I love this video..How sad you were now separated,but please don't say yet ex-wife in your new Vlogs recently. You're not yet officially divorce until you turn barck in Russia. It's your lost of viewers and Valentina gets more viewers and subscribers. I hope you realized that, remember in every broke-up,women gets more sympathy than men. It's more better if you hide it to us about your revelation about the broke-up,especially when Parents of Valentina's are on their Holiday in the Philippines,it's a big disappointment to them. Look at them they get old but still together,seems they are also nice people. Your children still innocent,it's hard for them to explain now,there's always a right time for everything. I still wish the best to both of you.
Big defferent when i was travel in Europe SWEDEN Arlanda, MOSCO, DENMARK its a beautiful nation country, i compared europe in philipines, for me here in philippines if you want to visit your friends relatives or neighbor you must ask confirmation first to your friend before accepting you.! I have alot observation about culture in europe, here in philippines thrs only one thing that i say life here philippines is very simple.👍🇵🇭
philippines is a best home to be with;;;the people;;;weather;;;foods;;;fruits life is amazing ;;;you got them all;;; my man is from poland soon in GODS willing we will be there too;;; i have house in the city near by ROXAS market;;;; and a vaca house in samal as well'''' miss my hometown; welcome to davao city
My Japanese husband love the Philippines because here it is cheaper to live and he loves our Philippine MANGO & SAN MIGUEL BEER and he like our weather and nature.
I love this channel so much becouse very intersting topic why they love Phillipines.becouse of the people very friendly and hospitable.Thank you for loving our country and our culture.Hope you both will stay forever here in our beloved country.
I love this video, Sergei, especially with your lovely wife Valentina telling us what you love and appreciate about our country. Yeah, the weather is probably the best reason why a lot of foreigners from countries that have cold weather move there: Philippines is always warm, and Samal is a small island so it never gets too hot because the ocean is all around you. And humans are "warm blooded", it does not matter where you are from. So our climate is very helpful for your mood and well being. It definitely affects your mind and body if you are not freezing all the time like in Russia or other European country. You are always thinking about staying warm, inside your house and outside when you leave the house. That alone is STRESS, and that's why we are always smiling and always happy because we don't think about the weather, less problem, less stress! .Our only problem or stress is we can't decide what to eat for lunch or dinner...Kinilaw or Sisig hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
There is caviar in the Philippines but it is not commercialized. In many Western countries caviar is sold in cans or bottles. In Bisaya it is called "bihud." When we were kids, our mother cooked it regularly.
I know you couple are very understanding and I'll tell you why they leave, they cannot communicate in english. But we usually stay at a party to celebrate the special day with the celebrants. You know guys at your place a lot of people there don't speak English there it's a remote place but if you go to the city especially Manila people are more educated. Guys we enjoy your show I hope you'll make more !
Sergie and Valentina, we may not have all specific reasons to like you, but we have a good reason to love you. You are so different from all the vloggers around. You always make us smile, laughing and happy whenever you have a new video. Keep up the happy video from you.
2011 pa lang andito na sila sa pinas, umuuwi sila sa Russia but still bumabalik parin sila dito bilang 2nd home nila in 13 yrs. Nag stay sila dito kasi mahal nila ang bansa natin, these foreign couple deserve more love, respect and support kasi minahal nila ang pinas noon pa na hindi pa uso ang vlogging nandito na sila. Kaya support natin sila sa mga vlogs nila. May vlog man o wala but they still choosing and love Philippines.
At 7:30, You may have confused it with a fiesta event like a birthday party. In the Philippines, birthdays are celebrated by inviting close friends and family to stay for a while, socialize, laugh, eat, drink, and most importantly, sing karaoke. In a feast or fiesta, everyone is welcome to join and after eating, guests can move on to the next house for more food. As a Filipino, it is customary to linger after a meal, especially at a birthday celebration for a loved one, unless there is an urgent need to leave."
His observation is right, impolite guests whether on birthdays or fiestas are uncontrollable. Filipinos are fond of bringing along shenanigans; even those thick faces once full, all scram. Sadly, it has become a norm to us locals and quite shameful to other cultures around the globe.
When I was 7 years old we celebrate birthday with jobee. Sometimes celebrate with emcee Sometimes celebrate beach party Sometimes tagay only. It depends with the budgets It depends trip Ng kabayan hehehe
I am from Samar ( not Samal ) where the 7000 Russian refugees had lived before. When you guys Valentina and Sergie talk and laugh I imagine those russians have same humor just like what you have. I hope you guys are enjoying living in the Philippines especially there in Samal🇵🇭🏝️🏝️🏝️
@@gcval9446 So easy!!!! Search here in RUclips and you will find them. In fact not only russians who fled thier country and came to the Philippines as refugees when they were persecuted in thier countries.
It is very true, base on my experience. Durian is not good at first the smell and the taste but it will change when you take it the 2nd time amd the 3rd then i become to love it and i can eat it everyday
You know bro. and sis it'll be much better for you to visit a place in eastern Samar that once maybe of your ancestors had seek refuge once upon a time,there was an island that our late pres.quirino caters them.
You can visit your friends without confirmation in your community, if your friends live miles away you must contact first he or she are not at home hahah.!
Before i thought Russians are strict people but since i subscribed Filipines i became to liked russian people Andrei, Valentina, Sergie, Jelena many more we liked you coz you love our country..keep on vlogging we are here supports your channel💞
You should know by now to speak FILIPINO language because you you are not guys live there for 13yrs now 😊 You started dating Valentina & you eat duraan only. Why you only eat duraan.

Filipino birthday celebration is actually full of fun: food, drinks, karaoke, dancing, games, hired entertainers.
Sergei the bangus with vinegar and veggies is called PAKSIW.

@@gcval9446 So easy!!!! Search here in RUclips and you will find them. In fact not only russians who fled thier country and came to the Philippines as refugees when they were persecuted in thier countries.
You're favorite here in Ph is Palawan because you haven't been to BATANES and many more...we still have many2 more places you haven't visited yet 😎

Russia should go crazy on chillies to keep warm, it would make more sense!
We like you to be here but please take care of your self do not go around during night because it is very dangerous...keep your self safe
