Thank you Ali for the nice and honest words about Manila. I also visited many European, American and Asian cities…ancient & historic , modern & fancy but like the lines of the song Manila…”I keep coming back to Manila, Manila I’m coming home” ! I am proud to be a Manileño.
I can feel your sincerity (straight from the heart), of why you fell in love with the Philippines. Thank you, Ali. The country, the people, and us, your subscribers have fallen in love with you, too. So sad to see you and Harry saying goodbye to each other, and then with Dany, leaving Coron separately. Whoa! What a joy to see Harry and you meeting in Intramuros. See you again in your next video. Mabuhay! -Ava
Love your show. The grounp is strong too. I really like how you and Harry will get on a level with the people and go into their homes. The back alleys and the explanation. I love to visit the Philippines but I'm in a wheelchair and I can't go to those places. Thanks for the adventures.
Salam Ali! I understand your sentiment. One would certainly feel underwhelmed when something has been overly hyped up. That's the issue with islands. Similar to Maldives... it is breathtakingly gorgeous... but one week is max before you tear your hair from boredom. From Manila you can also drive to Tagaytay to see one of the tiniest volcanoes in the world. Imagine... a lake within a volcano sitting on a lake that is on an island. You can try the Bulalo soup there. It is under 2 hours to get there.... There's hundred islands too.. not too far from there.... over 3 hours journey...or Rizal for the Masungi Geo Reserve for some breathtaking views and learn about the importance of sustainable tourism... I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip there! There are still so many places to see and explore outside of Manila... Siargao, Boracay, Sagada, Baguio, Camiguin, Batanes, Bicol,...... google these places and check them out if they will spark your interest and you decide if they are worth visiting or not.
Hearing the reason of your departure from Coron muchly justifies it. Welcome back to Manila. Enjoy the urban jungle and legend. There are still many places to explore like Ortigas Center, Araneta Center, Eastwood City, Greenhills etc.
You can always come back to this beautiful country with the most kind people.I would love to visit in the future,with your vlogs l learn alot about Philippines, Stay safe❤️ and healthy. LOVE from Greece. 🇵🇭❤️🇬🇷
Palawan island is the most popular when it comes to island hopping and nature, thats why tourists go there to experience and enjoy! You can’t blame if its so crowded or what because its POPULAR….there’s 7600+ to explore just check the map , go there get some local friends to be with and enjoy local life…
I am a city boy, and I will never ever trade a city life for a provincial life. I love beaches, but only for vacations and leisure, then go back to Manila again after a few days.
Ang sabihin nyo kinulang na sila sa budget. Di hamak mas magastos mag islands hopping. Mindanao at Luzon ay halos 1 land lng, 1 ride or two makarating ka na sa destination mo. Except lng sa hundreds islands, batanes,corridor, Tawi2, Sulu, Di gaya sa Visayas watak watak mas magastos ang plane ticket bawat hopping sa mga Isla. Nagsisimula plng sila ng vlogging.
Saying Good bye is always hard 😔 BTW I like the vlogs you did in those islands than the other vlogs you did in Manila or crowded areas in Philippines 💪 So peaceful and easy on eyes
A safe journey to you Harry. Looking forward to you return. And to Danny, the German Mr. Bond, I''ve just started to watch your Philippine series....nice!!! To the new legend, Mr. Ali, I'm disappointed you did not get to see the crown jewel of the Philippines, El Nido's Big and Small Lagoons and the other breath taking islands with creme de la creme beaches. No worries if you don't swim, you would actually enjoy more if you kayak in the lagoons and get off at shallow waters. With the other islands, some wading will be required to get to shore but water is shallow so you need not swim. Even with lots of tourists, the tour companies know how to stagger visits to avoid what you expereinced in Coron. And besides, very little beach in Coron, it's more for snorkling and some diving. You and Danny should fly for the weekend just for the island hopping. Or maybe your future Filipina wife can accompany you 😉😎🤣🇵🇭🇬🇧
just to give an update Ali effective June 15 Philippine Airlines now allows 20 kg baggage allowance on all propeller aircrafts except for one destination which is Batanes so u had taken this flight earlier
Great to know you keep coming back to Manila. I recommend you also try and visit the Summer Capital of the Philippines which is Baguio City. It is a mountain resort city and you will surely enjoy the cool weather and the unique culture of the Cordillerans.
*Same as me bro, I really hate flying and travelling on the road because I easily gets motion sickness but I would really love to travel on different countries and places.*
Definitely the best place to be. I will be moving there next year. I'm ready to go now but still need to get a few things in order. But I will be there in time.
Ali i have a video tip for you. Go to Greenhills in manila and make a video of how you bargain so many replica or counterfeit items. Its fun to bargain. You will meet a lot of people. Just remember, if the shop said the price is 1000 pesos - offered 300 pesos and go up little by little. You need to learn how to walk out during negotiations. Then maybe give all the stuff to some poor people or something. It's really fun and you will boost your video so fast !
Well, it has been worthwhile, looks like the 3 Musketeers are disbanding. We will definitely miss Harry for his sarcasm & endearing sense of humor and how he butchers the word "Halo-Halo". 🤣 Master Chief approves! 👍
NUVALI in Sta. Rosa Laguna is only 30-45 minutes from the Manila International Airport. Nuvali has a Wake Park which you can enjoy and experience, it's a mixture of a city and a province.
Hello Ali, I totally agree with your 5 reasons why leave Palawan, you can only do so much in the Island everything is far, food choices are limited and everything else. Manila has a lot to offer. But, thank you for visiting Philippines and loving our country and the food specially. I enjoyed watching your videos how detailed you put into. Hopefully you can come back again.
I understand your reasons, Ali! They're all valid! I hope to visit the Philippines again soon. The last time I've been there was like 2018. So, it is a long overdue trip. Can't wait to see your vlogs in Manila!
Its ok Ali stay where you find comfort Manila is a great city and have a mixed culture of people. I hope you enjoy your stay in the Phillipines in general and Manila in particular...... Keep safe
Ali, explore the Northern Luzon like Baguio city , Ilocos Norte and Sur,Cagayan Valley , La Union and other places of Northern Luzon. You can go to Batanes Island as well. Too many places that you have not seen yet.
Omg so sweet when you meet up with Harry ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I honestly felt so sad when Harry left, and when you board the plane on your own I feel it's not the same without Harry and Dany. Wish you all the best man!
Hi Ali. I live in Bakersfield, CA. I have been following your blog & Ur friend, Harry’s blog as well. You both have been to lots of places. I only been to metro Manila. Lake Taal & Cebu.

Must visit tourist destination: Vigan(the old Spanish city of the North), Baguio city-the summer capital of the Philippines, Tagaytay,Bohol's choc.hills and tarsiers -the smallest primate ( of the world -maybe)😅🇵🇭
nice to hear that you liked manila my home town everything you need here in the philippines is in manila all malls, amusement park, night Life, a lot park many hotels buildings, which here as well as manila is the most modern city bgc it's also good to go to the islands in the philippines in case it's a bit difficult to find hotels like here in manila there are also hotels in tourist destinations the problem is not as good as hotels like here in manila but in the future the country will also improve the country's side
You visit Philippines then you go away then you miss Manila then you come back then you go away again then you miss Manila again then you come back then you live here forever!
It's nice to hear Ali that you want to extend your visa to stay more in Philippines. Try Viking's Buffet Located at SM Megamall Camp Agos Tanay Rizal 2 hours drive from Manila Tagaytay Zambales and Northern Luzon tourist attractions.there is a lot of wonderful places in Philippines that you would really feel in love to explore Good Luck Ali and more subscriber to your channel Salamat Po 🤛

For so many people El Nido and Coron is a holiday islands where Filipinos stays for vacation only. I myself haven't been in those islands as I live in the UK. Those islands are most beautiful in the world clear and prestine water. You haven't seen parts of the Philippines but we are looking forward seeing you again here if you are planning to come back one day I would definitely stay in Manila for longer if I'm in the country.
Yes Ali, 100% agree , Mla is addicting. That's where we put our investment. I have 4 condos, 1 in BGC at Serendra just across the SM Aura, Market Market, I seldom cook if I am there. 2 Across MOA. 1 @ Bayshore Condo Residence Across Solaire Casino. All in high end places of Mla. No regrets, all rented out by Expat. The prices to purchase now is not affordable, triple now. 350,000 pesos / sq. meters. We invested in 2005, 2009, 2014. Thank you for loving Mla. Goodluck for everything you want to experience in the Phil. There are more to visit. Close to Mla. Tagaytay, Batangas, Bataan. Batanes is little far. Rice Terraces of Bengued in the North. Hello from Ontario, Canada!

You are very charming guy! Magnetic! Try MANGO BRAVO at CONTIS RESTAURANT highly recommended! Not to be missed😁👌 go to Tagaytay and visit the volcanoe 2hrs fr manila. Again TAGAYTAY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED too
Go to Tagaytay, Batangas. It's a beAutiful place where Taal volcano is located. You can search that in You tube. Look for Juicy vlog you can see the beautiful city of Tagaytay. It's 2 hours to go there. Manila to Tagaytay.
trying different foods/branches is more fun and interesting to watch. try to eat to different carrendirias like mark wiens doing. that's why his channel succeed so fast
I understand you so much for the 1st reason to extend visa...this country is mervellous and people are so nice salamat po ! (but vist mindanao one time), go samal island too
Hey Ali my friend, this is the reason why I moved to the Philippines. The beautiful filipino hospitality. I have never regretted my decision. Stay safe and healthy my friend.😊 😊 😊 😊 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I knew you'll say that " I FELL IN LOVE w/ the Philippines 🇵🇭" ... WE LOVE YOU BRO! You're always WELCOME TO COME BACK & STAY FOR GOOD like the others. If you appreciate & love what our beautiful country to offer you likewise, we love you dearly ❤️ 🌹 ❤️
Hope you do a collaboration with your fellow [couple] vloggers Mike and Nelly of "Making it Happen" who also chose to stay and live in Manila permanently, as they love more, the city life too I guess. They seem to know everything about the Philippines more, than the locals. hehehe.
Ali, Philippines journey was an amazing one. But I feel like now it's time to go for another country, because it's kind of feeling like repetition. May be it's just me. Anyways, I 'd watch watever you upload. Just a suggestion though. ✌️❤ Are u still in philipines today (The date of upload)?
I'm gonna miss the vlogs from you Ali and Harry here in the Philippines 🥲🥲🥲 it's been great having you experienced our culture, our country overall. I hope you guys would visit again someday, much love and support 🤗🥰
