Moving To The Philippines w/  

I really enjoy the content. Keep up the good work.

I agree with Phil, your nerves are making you grab at the camera, it’s on a tripod and not moving, it’s a defense mechanism. You need to build some confidence, the viewers watching feel uncomfortable when you feel uncomfortable. If you don’t feel comfortable on camera just interview from behind the camera. You are new, maybe your nerves will clear and confidence build. You are a very tense guy. RELAX best wishes

Leave the Camera alone. Since your nervous grab your glass but touching or adjusting your camera for nothing is annoying.

Happy anniversary, Mike & Janet!

Everytime you would grab the cam, I felt like your arm is coming out of my phone lol

Another great video Aaron.

I started laughing when I read the video title and seen the thumbnail picture of Mike smiling holding up his cup of coffee 😅😅 after that I knew it had to be a great interview 😊😊 good job !!

Howdy Mike and Eric ya'll enjoy your time up there in the former US colony the Philippines 🇵🇭 I'm Filipino American from Texas,I appreciate so much that you are promoting the Philippines in the higher level,.God bless Philippines 🇵🇭 & God bless the United States of America 🇺🇸 ❤❤❤

Good interview ❤

Mike & Janet watch your live stream whenever possible! Mike and Paul best source of Dumaguete information!

@8:17 Mike mentions a condo he'd love to live in but it sounds like someone took a dump in his mouth. Here is what he's trying to say "Solinea Tower 5 8W73+PP8, Ayala Rd, Cebu City, 6000 Cebu, Philippines" Aaron Stop touching the camera! Great interview. Lots of great information!! Keep up the great work!

phil is the best place to retire if you have monthly pension 2k dollar is enough to live comfortably . in the future i will live in cebu and marry a local virgin.locals are friendly and hospitable. already visited dumaguete thrice many expatriates. in cebu there's an expatriate village.

I think your skills at these interview videos is really coming along. I haven't yet seen a lot of them but I think you could have a future in this realm, maybe the next generation of these PI vloggers. If I could offer one bit of constructive criticism, In your videos I have watched it often appears as though you are positioned somewhat in front of your guest/s. It almost looks like you have to loom over your shoulder at them. If you could arrange your position relative to theirs as bit more parallel in depth (distance from camera), if that makes sense, and turn a bit more towards them so you guys look more like you are angled towards one another and less like you are facing the camera, I think that would look more natural and probably improve sound a bit. The audio on this was quite good BTW, though I would also turn up the level so we don't have to turn ours up so far. On many of these videos I have my audio cranked all the way and still want to turn it up a bit more. My philosophy is the audience can always turn it down but can only go up so far. I just like to have a bit more headroom to turn things up if I need to.

Nice venue. Looks like a cafe straight out of Sarasota Florida. I could see myself retired and happy there. I'm 61yo and divorced so it's pretty much over for the sexual marketplace in America. Maybe I'm find with that but the clock is set and I'll decide in a year. SS plus a fat 401K and I could budget "large" for living there. Kind of hard to imagine leaving all my "stuff" behind 'cept what I can put into 2 suitcases. But what an adventure. And if life gives you that then you are truly blessed. Thanks for all the general talk. It helps me get more comfortable about this big idea.

Aaron, you may need a nether camera. You constantly adjust/?. You do this in every show.

I would love to see an interview with the Pea.

Funny...he called you "Eric". Good ole Mike. Everyone wants to be a RU-vid celeb. lol Ned was one of the original ones....2013....He's done now...he does 2 or 3 videos a year now. He had a series of girlfriends...and eventually married the best of the 8 or 10.

Mike's acting like he's doing one of his videos asking questions like he's the host.

Aaron,just a little criticism, please relax and stop touching the camera. I like your content, but that drives me crazy.

"From NM" .. I think that's a Chicago / IL accent ..

I like the "Travel Videos" (you do) and like "Vagabond Awake" puts out amazing quality, informative, useful / practical Info / Content (and it's entertaining "Infotainment") .. So "sick" of Redundant-Stupid (Phil) "Entertainment" Click bait .. I know, 4 mil RU-vidrs .. I know you have to "sell it" in a Thumbnail (competition) but.. You answering Mike's questions about your Specific Budget / Traveling (Tips) And Prices is "Great Stuff" .. I'm getting ready, 2025, and "right up my alley" and I'm Sure there's as lot of us Boomers, ready to retire & travel .. $1,500- $2000 a mos is a typical Soc Sec Check (early at 62) budget .. "A lot of us don't Drink" / Party anymore .. The "Come & Move to / Settle- down in Dumaguete (Soap Opera) Mkt" is (ridiculous) Saturated .. Plus you got a Lot of much Younger people traveling these days (maybe on a budget) ..

Dude, put your hands in your pockets. If you don’t get control of the camera touching thing I will quit watching, even though I think I like your content

Aaron said he had a filipina girlfriend in the U.S. , its a lie he had a filipino boyfriend

I hope you can interview critter hunter who own diving school

Been in the Philippines for almost 35 years and i would definitely NOT choose to live in Dumaguete

You're getting away from the west, and yet moving to where all the grumpy westerners and not simulating with the locals it's disrespectful to the locals and the country, it does not make sense.

Mate, continuing to reach for your camera got real annoying by the end.

"150 P" for a cup of coffee, in Dumaguete .. "That's ridiculous" and a waste of money ..

Dumaguete blows . It's for old guys that wanna get drunk and waste their life.

I don't know if this is a tic, but please stop moving your left hand moving towards your camera. It's uncomfortable and distracting. Try moving the camera 3-4 feet out of reach. Good interview.
