1) It is always wisest to RESEARCH wherever you plan to live thoroughly before you go. Know before you go, as they say. 2) I'd be most worried about being in one of the typhoons, over there. Philippines gets them annually and the storms that SLAM into that nation can be FIERCE! I don't reckon one can avoid them, eh? 3) About people knowing English -- We have all thought that everyone else knows our language and such. It is unavoidable being (as Lloyd put it) selfish. English is surprisingly commonly spoken, as well, so of course one just naturally assumes that whoever you encounter will speak it.

I'm a native born Filipino based here in Las Vegas. Your appraisal and comments about the Philippines is "fair and balanced", and I'm sure many foreign travelers to the Philippines, as well as the people of the Philippines, would find would find your comments very helpful.

As a Filipino Cani please ask your advice? 😊 I can only travel to the Philippines in June, and am really worried about the weather!! Will it be fine during June or will it just be too rainy?

@cristinasumadchat605 Год назад

This is the reason why many Filipinos are like tourists in their own country. You would be surprised that many of us have not seen the whole country because of the expenses needed to travel around islands. If you want to experience the coldest place in the country, try going up north to Baguio City, which is the country's summer capital.

@davidhosking436 Год назад

Been there many times

@janteo3645 Год назад

This is so true, especially since most Filipinos don't have large incomes to begin with. I once spent $300 flying from Toronto to Peru. I went from the Northern to the Southern Hemisphere but it was still cheaper than some flights from Manila to Davao. SMH

@CaptainKremmen 2 месяца назад

@@janteo3645 All you have to do is book ahead to get cheap airfares in the Philippines. e.g. cheapest CEB-PPS one-way in 2 days is 4474 pesos, but 1221 pesos (under US$22) for next month.

@foreveryoungsy3511 Год назад

Regarding accomodation...you can actually cost less when you stay in the villages...rent a car for your daily travel...make friends with local and you find many hospitable people to offer you good places for less cost or even free...

@wkmwvsalon Год назад

I appreciate your video because it is honest and frank. Being a Filipino-American, I just spent the whole month of June there, and I entirely agree with your "7 things", especially #7. Wifi is spotty. I was pretty fortunate to stay in some nice hotels and only there was I able to hook up to the internet well. Did not do any uploading though.

@jalferrer7973 Год назад

I absolutely agree with you about the comparatively exorbitant cost of accommodations and airfares in the Philippines. I'm Filipino and live in the U.S. and have been going home almost every year, sometimes 2-3 times a year. I've also traveled extensively in SE Asia for work and find your observations spot on. There is so much more competition from local and international hotels and air carriers overseas that pushes prices down. With monopolies in many industries in the Philippines, there is no need for hotel and airlines to lower prices and offer a better product.

@kabysummit5801 11 месяцев назад

I'm planning on a trip to the Philippines. Thanks for the explanations on why the costs are as such.

@WatchaPinasTV Год назад

Thanks for visiting my motherland!…watching from San Francisco Ca 🇵🇭🇺🇸

@janteo3645 Год назад

I'm a Canadian born in the Philippines. I totally agree with you about the expensive Wi-Fi and the cost of traveling. Most of it is because of the duopoly they have going on there. They don't allow outside airlines and telecoms companies in, so the companies have no incentive to improve their services as there is no other competition. They should introduce short inter-island flights between the major Philippine islands like Cebu, Panay, Negros, etc.. That would cut traveling costs because people don't have to fly back to Manila every time they want to visit another beautiful island. That would be a win for local Tourism as well. That said, I actually think we have the same problems here in Canada but it's getting better with the new budget airlines coming in. It still has some room for improvement here though. I wish the Philippines government sees this video and look into improving the country's infrastructure, especially in the provinces. It should be a priority for countries that rely so much on tourism.

@nelsonlomod9601 Год назад

Actually the rainy season starts on the month of july- december but since the country runs north to south, the rains are more prevalent in north and the rains go south as the year ends but thats not always regular. Rain will still come intermittently anywhere anytime.

@Prinskorv0 Год назад

I agree. I live in central Visayas, It seems like it pretty much rains all year. I don't really notice anything seasonaly (except for the bugs) But usually for no more than a few hours or if when there's a tropical storm, like the recent Nalgae.

@ineedyou1298 Год назад

That is right. Even here in Manila, wifi is slow and cutting in and out. Use mobile data when uploading😅, try it. It's way better than wifi. I always hear from a lot of vloggers that they're struggling for wifi here. Hope the government should consider this including the accomodation. It's really expensive here but not that so quality. Even boarding houses, expensive too. So sad for those employees earning minimum wage, it sucks. That's why poor people remain poor and rich people get richer. Can u imagine, monthly salary here is very low but we pay more for accomodation? ☹

@mattsoley123 Год назад

People should not travel if they cannot afford and always remember you got what you paid for! If stay at BGC or high class hotel you have to pay more than airbnb or hostel, if you eat at high class restaurant you have to pay more instead of eating at local carenderia which is kulas favorite place to eat, you have to do research and planning before you travel instead of whining so many things you dont know about Philippines my advice to both you watch kulas becoming pilipino vlog you will learn a lot from him.

@youtubephan2427 Год назад

i've got to say, i live in the US. Going to PH for vacation is really affordable for me.That being said, I have no comparison experience with other places like Thailand or Vietnam. I recently travelled to PH and did notice my Grab transportation went up from last time. Still, I am not wealthy, but things just cost more in the US. My lifestyle is definately cheaper in the PH. But the internet does suck in PH.

@sherinick7523 Год назад

Not all places. If you go to places like islands, dont expect good wifi. Why? Local people go to this places to enjoy the place and not the wifi. Of course we need wifi but not that much. Just stay and enjoy the place thats the number 1 motive.

@sherinick7523 Год назад

Coz the oil prices goes up sir anywhere in the world crude oil goes up even in USA. WHY complain? You agree crude oil in USA is very high right??

@@sherinick7523 the most stable wifi will probably be in the big hotels in Manila(Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton). Clark Hilton seemed good too...everywhere else in Manila offering wifi is just ok...I love the city most, so if I do go out of Manila, I usually dont expect much.

I just got my passport . I want to go on a vacation . Mexico and Jamaica o have been . I want to go somewhere nice but cheap . I don’t want to spend more than 2 k Where could I go in Philippines? Is it all inclusive for cheap or a cheap beach house and cook or find my own food .

@edgarnapiza4667 Год назад

Even us Filipinos travelling to beaches are planned ahead of time as ticket and accommodation are expensive. So it will take us months to prepare tickets, accommodation. Maybe it’s expensive in the Phils as more islands are separated and maybe to minimize travelling in that islands like El Nido, Boracay, Coron, Siargao.

Im a filipino but living in ireland now & i love being subscriber of every vloggers that goes to philippines ( that is why i’m one of your subscriber😀) i think before travelling you need to know about the country you will visit & learn how the lifestyle & cost of living as well & that might save you monetary wise. Wifi ? Every country has problem on it, even here in ireland if you will visit a isolated place you will tell to yourself why i went there?🥴& bcoz of the pandemic plus the war from ukraine-russia & inflation😩everything goes high😫(except my hieght😁) it just so happened you travel on different situation. Anyway we thank both of you at least seeing philippines. We appreciate the happy moments of it. Stay happy & blessed.

Internet is not that fast because we are composed of different islands and connecting each island digitally is still being improved. It will be better in the near future as internet cables are being laid down underwater.

@OzBarry Год назад

Great feedback, thank you. It would be also interesting if some time you could give a run down on every island you visited and the characteristics or features of them? Assuming each one is a little different bfrom eachother. For example, I like hiking or bushwalking along different trails and have no idea what place would be best for this?

@RampartPh Год назад

although there are a variety of mountains on almost every island in the Ph, i'd have to say the mountain province of northern luzon is probably best for a tourist. you can choose from several mountains to climb and you may even trek the 3rd highest peak in the country ( it's the tallest in luzon island) called mount pulag. several tour outfits offer a climb there (or other mountains too) where everything would be taken care of in terms of food and accommodation.

@eldybones517 Год назад

Best for you would be the north of Luzon. Rice terraces, beautiful mountain sceneries, then visit Apo Wang Od, our last mambabatok or tribal tattoo artist. Shes more than 100 years old and of our national treasure.

@gericornista8133 Год назад

The southern Philippines is the right place for you! Well actually the mountainous north too!

@herchickenlegs4 Год назад

It depends what you want really. If you want beach holidays then choose the right island to stay. If you want mountains, water falls then stay in the province. Philippines is so very lucky it has so many beautiful natural places to go to although still internet is a problem but hopefully will be sorted it out very soon as people now a days are so much engaged on social media. I must say the North of the Philippines is the best worth a visit. I have visited the south Island of the Philippines and less tourists but still a lot to do, make some improvements to attract People there to go and visit. Siargao is beautiful and Camiguin parts of South Philippines 😊

@Ravishing_Mr_Perfect Год назад

In Antique province, there are 3 famous mountain rated for hiking. Mount Baloy 9/9, Mount Nangtud 8/9 and Mount Madjass 8/9. In negros oriental province there is Mount Talinis and several hiking area like Puncak Tanawan, Mampas peak and Dinasaurs back and in Dauin, which is also famous for snorkel and scuba diving.

Had to lower our expectations as well when fortunately we get to travel to Europe (Milan and Luzern, Australia even) as now we found out there's no perfect place. With the recent facelift and upgrades in the economy and certain cities all over the Phils, yes, pls expect also an upgrade in the cost of living. Gone are the days of merely a developing country or island life. Hello to paradise and modern metropolis.

@murpsauce7168 Год назад

Good news for you, a lot of these problems regarding accommodation / travel expenses and etc. will be soon corrected. The Philippines has a new head of tourism secretary Christina Frasco, and she's quite possibly the best, most qualified one yet. The DOT has a masterplan in infrastructure, price regulations, etc. So expect massive changes, like real soon.

Since the Philippines has 7,641 Islands, that means lots of Beautiful White Beaches especially in the Visayas and Mindanao Provinces, tho Luzon has a few White Beaches as well. When it comes to Hiking, Trekking, Canyoneering and Island Hopping, aside from the Visayas and Mindanao, Palawan is a must. Palawan has been Voted by many International Travel Agencies as the Best Island in the World. And Millions of Foreigners/Tourists can attest to it. The Philippines is now at the Top on International Tourism. "It's More Fun in the Philippines".

Wifi question. Does purchasing a sim card allow you to use wifi through a laptop or only on your phone? I plan to work remotely in the Philippines for a while, but I would need to be able to work through my laptop.

@LloydandMandy Год назад

Yes you can hotspot your computer

I am a foreign national vaccinated with booster in Phillipines back in January. Now outside, should I get the 4th dose when coming back in November?

@SilentTrigger31585 Год назад

You should get in touch with 8 milers. They pretty much settled in Siargao. But I thnik they are travelling on a car in Visayas at the moment.

Hey! Love the video. We are digital nomads travelling to Philippines next month. What were the best places you came across in general for wifi/internet access? Or any places to avoid? 😅 cheers!

@LloydandMandy Год назад

The Internet is pretty terrible everywhere, I guess the best place would be manila. Just make sure when booking accommodation they have good wifi, check the reviews.

@arvinlumbris4447 Год назад

Yeah for a digital Nomad its gonna be tough but if your just on a vacation Philippines is a perfect destination the thing is if your in the Philippines and you do vlogs and the content is good you will get a lot of subscribers but still vloggers come here to get more subs.

Hello, I want to visit the Philippines soon. I will be doing so for one month. I've never travelled out of the USA. I have no clue how anything works. Am I supposed to exchange currency before I leave my country or can I do it in the Philippines? Can I use my credit cards in the Philippines? Do I need a visa or visitor visa to visit Philippines? Do you need to quarantine if you haven't been fully vaccinated? I am absolutely lost at travelling somewhere new. Any help with these would be appreciated or somewhere I can get all of this information. Thank you!
