It's my first time back in the Philippines! Join me as I rediscover one of Metro Manila's nicest places - Bonifacio Global City (BGC). 📸 Instagram: / zane.jpegs ---- #philippines #manila #travel
Years ago I went to mall of America. I thought it was huge, but I found out that there’s 5 malls in the Philippines that are twice as big as the mall of America.
I stayed there too, and I swear, the shopping malls there are bigger than my weekend plans. Welcome to the city where 'walkable' is the new black! I would love to go there again and maybe, get the beautiful places of Philippines for our TV show.
Hi there! New sub here! Your videos were recommended to me because I recently went to Japan (and I’ve been watching Japan vlogs like yours). I’m not really into travel vlogs a lot but I TRULY enjoyed your videos even before I saw your PH vlogs. I appreciate how you vlog and don’t make it clickbait-ey or loud like the others. You really talk about like a normal traveller trying to appreciate and learn and absorb everything. You even learn the transportation systems, names of shops, best food, etc. You made it feel comforting to watch, especially to those who’ve been to those same places and enjoy the nostalgic feels. You can guarantee Filipinos are really friendly especially to foreigners most especially white Americans. 😅 If you get confused, you can ask strangers and they’d try hard to speak English even if they’re not fluent, but they’re always willing to help. Keep safe!
I am a new subscriber here. I am so happy whenever foreigners are appreciative of the Filipino culture and hospitality. You will not regret spending your Christmas here for sure.
I enjoyed this vlog so much! You radiate CHILL and it's catchy! Thank you for taking us around the BGC (now your fave area!). Welcome back to the country. Filipinos are happy to see you back! I'll keep following.
your smile is different than when you first came here in March., Tbh, you seem “grumpy looking” and so serious when I watched your previous PH videos. But now, there’s something about your eyes or smile😊 you seem happier coming back here. Enjoy the “Ber” months here in Philippines you won’t regret it.
I really appreciate foreigners appreciating and loving Philippines. I know there are many flaws about our country but they still choose to see beyond that.
I envy you Zane! I’m from there and I live now in US. So much things to see and do there, BGC is a hype area. Wow! love to eat flavorful foods choices and varieties are insane. In US you have to hike far to farther places in your vehicle It’s not one stop park . Thanks for taking me with you, now I’ll have a list to follow the best places to experience fun!
Nice to spend at least time for New Year's Day in the Philippines. (Christmas celebrations are actually out of this world, here.) Welcome back. As for a comparison, try "S & R's" pizza. S & R is basically the same type of retail store as Landers.
One thing good in Manila is an endless chain of food stores and variety of food available all over the city. The malls are really nice and lots of restaurants around that you can easily find a place to eat inside the mall and never have to go elsewhere. It’s really fun spending time in BGC. I think Uptown or High Street area is really not much of a difference. Everything is accessible from both, but it’s up to you where you feel better in terms of proximity to your go-to places every now and then. Go to see you back. Enjoy your stay.
Get out of BGC and see the real Manila. BGC is an illusion that the average Filipino doesn't see in their lives. It's a place built to attract foreigners and rich Filipinos, like bees to a honey pot.
Been watching your previous Philippines videos to prepare for my trip there in December! Thank you for the videos on BGC and looking forward to more uploads from you. I haven't been back there in 20+ years. Can't wait to visit the country again!
Hello! Have fun! Philippines is my favorite country, been there 19 times from Seattle, we will be there again for Christmas! Excited! Make friends build relationships!
nice to see you back! I'll be back in Manila from Texas this November, traveling to Coron on November 23-25. hope to see u there! Again welcome to the Philippines!
Welcome back my man! Definitely shows on your face the excitement of being back in the Philippines and BGC... Enjoy the country more than you did the first time you were here... More power to your channel Zane!
There are 15 business districts in M.Manila like Aseana Ayala center Circuit Makati Rockwell center Newport city Greenhills Ortigas center Greenfield district Eastwood city The C5 Corridor Triangle park Araneta center BGC McKinley Hill and Ayala Alabang. these are the business districts that you can visit while you're in Manila.
Welcome back Zane 🇵🇭. Siquijor has an authentic Napoli pizza. An Italian couple owns Dolce Amore Restaurant n Resort in Siquijor. Idk if you like Hamilton (Musical)? It’s showing at Solaire.
Manila is still an underated city but in now getting more n more popular among world travelers as evidenced by several cruise ships visiting Manila....n as a matter of fact Manila is one of the friendliest n safest city to visit in Asia...Manila also has become popular to many foreign vloggers who enjoys the many beautiful places in the Philippines as well...mabuhay
Check out Arca South in Taguig. It’s supposed to be better than BGC, with more green space. It has the biggest Landers in the Philippines. I’m going to check it out the next time I’m in the Philippines.
Welcome Back Zane!! We really missd your vlog here in the Philippines, hope you stayf her through christmas. Its actually hard to choose between high street or uptown, but i think uptown not that crowded unlike in high street especially at night coz there are so many shops and sightseeing while in uptown more peaceful to walk and doing me time..😊
Welcome back, Zane. "Ber" months had begun and so is Christmas in the Philippines. Enjoy your stay, and hoping it's longer. Always following your travels.
Nice of you to be back in the Philippines and spend the rest of the "BER" Months and experience Christmas and New Year. Enjoy your stay. Be safe and Godpeed.
11:50 haha holy, this goes even beyond Thailand (if possible) in hospitality. If i had to guess, PH might (yet) not have had as many, shall we say, less than reputable tourists come through as Bangkok / Pattaya has had. Remember that guys, each and every one of us influence the perception of visitors. Be respectful and polite, and they'll return it in kind, not just to you but to everyone coming after you as well.
Zane next time, you try the "4th Largest Mall in the World in terms of Leasable Stalls," the SM MOA or SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City adjacent to Manila City. Also, the "7th Largest Mall in the World," the SM Mega Mall in Mandaluyong City where you can try our huge Ice Skating Rink. And the first one-stop-shopping mall in the Philippines, the SM City North EDSA in the "City of Stars" - Quezon City, where I eat favorite Unli Yogurt @YoWell All-You-Can every Saturday. Hope to see you there, bro.
Wow Zane you are so very welcome so welcome back! You need to make Philippines your base point.!it’s always exciting specially we all know a handsome blogger like Zane. Be safe and have fun more of your adventure! So welcome back I can’t tell you enough!
2nd trip to The Philippines!?!?! That says a lot that you've returned!!! I so miss it over there!!! Next time I'm there, you sold me on Shake Shack's Ube Milkshake!!!!
Very cool video, I love the free flowing style. From all my travelling around the Philippines, BGC is really the best place to hang out anywhere in the country. You get the friendliness that you'll get anywhere else in the Philippines added with the upscale atmosphere that most people would compare to a place like Singapore.
To answer your question, I will choose Uptown cause it's kinda cool living there... the atmosphere and the fantastic views when you are there.. Man I really like watching your videos.. your interaction with your audience is superb... as if we are really part of your videos... Thank you man.. keep it up... really cool!!!
Thats also my goal: to stay there rent a condo yearly rate, buy fresh vegetables and fruits, cook my own food, walk daily for good health. Thanks for your informative video .
Welcome back our fav vlogger of Asia! Experience and enjoy th😊coming long xmas holidays of the Philippines and get the feel of authentic Pinoys! Hope you can zoom in on food and festivities of the Philippines! Godbless my man!
