Philippines life has changed significantly since the day we arrived in 2020 until now. It's not the same anymore and here's why. The way people view this country and the lifestyles that settlers live has definitely made an impact on the type of videos that we want to make.
But today we decided to strip it all back to basics, for those of you who want the old school authentic, wholesome vlogs of the original lockdown days! Better weather is coming, and we hope to show more of the simple life in Siargao once again. Philippines coolest island

@seyeseye9448 4 месяца назад

To be honest, I love your “middle of the road” vlogs…I like that you show the everyday daily life in Siargao. Why? Bc it gives some reality of living there on the island. It’s calming. Maybe your audience aren’t young and looking for an adventure…maybe your audience is someone like me who is looking for calmness and tranquility, especially when my world is chaotic, fast paced, and always on the go. I look forward to your vlogs bc it reminds me, this is the goal. I’m living vicariously through you for now. You guys make it real for me that this is possible. Cheers to you and hope you continue your “mundane” posts.

@maydaishikawa9435 4 месяца назад

I was born in the Philippines and moved to the US at a young age. What I love about your life is how you live simply and I often wonder why can’t I live like you. Please keep on vlogging.

@jennibulan 4 месяца назад

When you were on hiatus, I realized your blogs have become a part of my daily routine and I missed them a lot. There is a niche market of your authentic videos and though we (your audience) may not perhaps bring in the big bucks, you can be assured that we are here to stay. We appreciate the genuine-ness. You guys stand out amidst the chaos of contrived vlogs. Keep it up!!! ❤

Well said. Their videos can bring out the best in Filipinos. Hospitable, understanding and, like this family, hopeful/grateful that life in the Philippines is getting better for them and Filipinos alike. Sadly, their videos also bring out the worse kind of Filipinos. Angry, bitter and jealous. Not only do they insult and call Filipinos gullible for loving foreign bloggers promoting the country, but they also wish misfortune befall this family(yes, I'm looking at you, @vibratolife AKA @HobbyLoft, @Darcydanlipo, @pinoyintheprairies, @litomalapuy, @kalebquinn, @vhongdizon, @matandangdragon, @Yutyot and @joannajacobson506). Your kind words drown out words of hate and malice.

Well said. Their videos can bring out the best in Filipinos. Hospitable, understanding and hopeful/grateful that life in the Philippines are getting better for themselves and for Filipinos as well. Sadly, their videos also bring out the worst kind of Filipinos. Those that hide in the anonymity of RU-vid and spew out their anger, bitterness and jealousy. Not only do they insult their fellow Filipinos by calling them gullible for patronizing foreign bloggers promoting the country, they actually wish that misfortune befall this family. Your kind words drown out their voices filled with hate and malice. Keep it up!

I enjoy day-to-day type of vlogs. It may just be that people are in general out and about again since we can. I always liked the simplicity and wholesomeness of your videos. Not many people get to live a simple life anymore. Watching your vlogs calms me. Stay true to who you are. People are drawn to authenticity.

I watch vlogs from the Philippines because I plan on retiring there in less than 5 years. Seeing every day life is wonderful for me. I enjoy your family on the videos no matter what you all are doing. Thanks for sharing your lives.😊

@user-gv7ui2fb9i 4 месяца назад

that makes your channel diff. from the others. no script just pure raw of what matters most being just living in our universe our planet earth. its so peaceful to watch. not pleasing others just for the views. its doesnt matter if we watch ur vlog/videos or not you just document how happy ur family is. you're living my dream. and besides being not that "famous" is perfect. being famous is a handicap. people always watching ur every move or making selfie with you etc. being not famous has more freedom thas why i love to watch ur videos 🥰 very calming simple vintage life with a mix of netflix and internet. specialy people who watch ur videos living in the city like me so noisy noise pollution everywhere most people love partying. and i'm an introvert so living your life offgrid makes it more special 😊

Wipe your windows with Banana leaves as you wash it. Facing the dark side to all windows. The result is fantastic...Very clean. The water will just glide through removing all the stains..Try it..

Agree! A little gem of a tip there. Another nugget: banana leaves have been the traditional cleaning and polishing material for the bamboo slat floors in bahay kubos in days of yore.

Your authenticity is actually what made me fall in love with your family including Poppy Have you tried making a survey on what your viewers want to see from you guys?

@8milesfromhome 4 месяца назад

Yes we have done polls, the problem is that what a lot of people want from us is not easy to sustain with a vegan food restriction, and a dog and kid to care for. (Continuous travel, Food tasting, Filipino festivals, experiencing things for the first time etc) As much as we’d love to travel around freely seeing all the beautiful sights, the logistics and the cost are astronomical. And we can’t seem to land PR stays successfully like other vloggers can. (Probably because of Poppy 😅) If they build more bridges here life will be sooo much better, but for now with the poor boat conditions, we need to figure out the best way to move around with the Pop Star ⭐️

Well done Story for taking care of the cat. She has a kind and pure heart. I was surprised that Jay appears to not like cats very much. By nature they are independent and have their own minds. Dogs are eager to please and like to be centre of attention which suits some people better.

@mickb1471 4 месяца назад

The reason I started watching you in the first place was because of your authentic way of displaying your life in the Philippines, everything you've shown has not only been about the ups but also the downs. You've displayed the genuine life of a family making it happen in a foreign country. You've not only been informative but you've also been kind enough to introduce us into your family which I find very endearing

@susanko4530 4 месяца назад

I am with you on your choice of contents. Am one of those who enjoy your simple vlogs about daily life. I miss the type of vlogs you did during the lockdown where you navigated the village, buying fruits and veggies from your "sukis" and getting water from the store where the 10 yr old cat "Rain" resided.

@lizllim8272 4 месяца назад

I love your channel. It makes me feel humbled watching you guys living simply in Siargao appreciating what life has to offer. Just keep on doing what you are doing .

@CristinaGonzalez-fp1eo 4 месяца назад

Glad to see that you are back. I would just like to say that it is your authenticity and wholesomeness that drew me to your channel and what made me subscribe. I will continue to watch your videos. It has been part of my routine. You are the first channel in which i've subscribed and only 1 of 2. Most of the videos out there are sensationalized, staged, and unauthentic. You've inspired me. It's possible to live a simple and peaceful life in this day and age. Thank you.

@rianvidas7838 4 месяца назад

You may want to buy a pressure washer from an online shop. You just dip the intake in a bucket. Authentic, simple, excellent story telling and great video shots -- these are the reason why I still watch your videos, and these are the reason why I subscribed to your channel. Keep it up guys.

@jayesguerra6748 4 месяца назад

Hi Jay, Sasha, and Story! Fan here from Toronto, Canada. Everyday in the morning, my routine is to see if you guys have a new video. I love your vlogs the way they are. Please continue to vlog your regular daily life. I enjoy watching and following what your family is up to, even if it’s just watching you guys do your groceries and car wash! :)

Authenticity is you and your family’s strong point tbh. There are content creators that I don’t watch anymore because of how fast paced they are in terms of their contents that they come off fake, out of touch, and unrealistic. Praying for more success to your family, to your channel, and your other ventures. 🙏

Every time I watch a vlog I’m always so impressed with how intelligent your daughter is. Omad is supposed to have great benefits. I do some intermittent fasting myself for the health benefits it’s supposed to have. You just need to make sure you don’t have ANYTHING at all while fasting. Even a few calories kicks you out of your fast and ruins all the benefits. Good luck.

You're right, attracting new audiences might not be as easy but there's really no need to make new content for the sake of the algorithm. We lice all your content no matter what it is 😍 You are still operating mainly within your little family unit though and that content can get repetitive. It might be interesting to integrate into the local culture more. Collaborations are always a good idea too coz you are exposed to other creators' subscribers too.
