After spending so much time in the hoods of Manila, it was time to get some fresh air. Just a few hours north of Manila is the former site of the Clark Air base. And just outside of Clark is a village home to the Aeta people, who are Melanesian or "black Filipinos".
I decided to visit with my new half-American acquaintance, Rose. I had no idea what to expect, which was good, because I ended up taking an entire village on a field trip across grasslands to a local theme park. And to think I just wanted to have a lazy Sunday afternoon..

It is really nice of you to have provided entrance fee for the children to see the amusement park. They may not have said thank you, they may not even know 'Sabbatical'. But rest assured - their classmates, friends, relatives and neighbors will hear of it today and for the years to come, that one afternoon in early 2023, you brought them there.

@mr.drummond2250 Год назад

Exactly , he made an everlasting impression on these kids and that’s all that matters.

@securepking Год назад

True stuff like this leaves a lasting impact some times kids are just too excited to express their appreciation for things.

@Chuncee Год назад

I’m pretty sure they said thanks after 😅 wth. Phillipino people are the most polite people on earth.

@ext1013 8 месяцев назад

You are so generous.

@i-am-your-conscience 8 месяцев назад

That he payed entrances fees in the equivalent value of 100kg of rice.. Yes, that will be a great story to tell

@nthlrose Год назад

For those who are "concerned" about me. Lol. I'm an introvert and I get uncooperative sometimes. I have my own life now and my everyday life doesn't revolve around the fact that "my father abandoned me". I may live in a third world country, but I think I am living a better life than some girls (in the US or not) with married parents/complete family growing up. I'm thankful for the gift of life that I have. 🤍 And my mother was not a hooker 🤭

@academicpursuits8960 Год назад

Nice response Rose! As a black man, who is a dad and lolo, I certainly would have been proud if you were my daughter. Stay proud of who you are and where you come from. I'm an introvert as well, and it's hard for people to sometimes understand folks like us, but that's not our problem.

@LucidDream Год назад

Understood, because I'm like that too. I genuinely hope your life gets even better than you ever imagined it could be. 💖

@bonham1981 Год назад

Your comment made me rethink how I perceive people, especially in Tommy's videos, because some of those things crossed my mind when I saw the interview bit with you. Now I feel almost ashamed for that. Why is it that we draw these conclusions so quickly? Heck I would even go as far and say your life is probably more interesting than mine.

@will_274 Год назад

I Like the fact you don’t follow the typical Philippines vlogging destinations. Good to see some different places.

@AcidxAnarchy Год назад

To be honest, I'd watch this guy go exploring anywhere.

@theghostoftravel Год назад

@rooneyramos4946 Год назад

I know how you feel when helping the native Filipinos to get inside that park . It always reminds me when I visit Iloilo City, Philippines - so many aetas wondering the City especially those kids who does not wear clothes- fully naked. Chasing you for foods. Immediately run to the bake stores and buy those breads and gave to each one of them. I have silently my emotions run high but oh boy- it really feels good to share what you have to somebody needs it…… I commend your intentions. ❤️🇺🇸🇸🇽

@vidgood8682 Год назад

@@goldbluetears well introverts, if filmed a certain way could make them look depressed. and no i'm not american lol. well, hyped up / fake positive / cheerful is just generally a better appearance than down / true negative / not cheerful. Anyways, it's like an interview, do you go to one all sad thinking i'mma be myself lol. No they gotta fake it so they'll be someone that's appealing and interesting. Sure i'd be interested in why a person looks depressed but that's all.

Rose is a vibe and sad she didn't get to know her father. Her father must of been African American decent. I hope your going to the other islands! I'm hoping to do a lot of the archipelago and do vlogs. You need to meet Whang Od and and also see the hanging coffins in Sagada! It's so nice of you to bring those kiddos to the theme park 😢. Maybe one day you'll bring your own. Get a lady start a family 😉! Peace x ✌️
