Michael how is it possible that you 2 (unfortunately) did not take the advice to stay in uptown (Beverly Hills) vs. Compton? I feel bad for you two that you wasted those first two days!!!! Sorry
Thanks for showing us the Philippines Mike you have a gift and we appreciate you❤ it's a joy to watch your relationship with Cat grow and an honor to watch her blossom, she really trusts you❤ you two were meant for each other❤John 3,16 ❤
Beautiful Kat. She is slowly but surely coming out of her shell. I can totally see she wants to say something or express her opinion in a lot of the live chats but her English is very limited or she does not feel secure enough to talk. Pls be kind. Give her sometime and stop comparing her to others. She will get there. ❤❤❤
It's interesting that you don't seem to know about the typhoon Sendong tradgedy in CDO and the history of the up town and relocation areas in CDO. In 2011 typhoon sendong caused a huge amount of water to come down the Cagayan river and through the centre of CDO. The communities living along the river which were mostly low income areas were flood by basically a wall of water around 20-30 ft deep. Areas like Macasandig were basically wahed away down the river and out to see. The death toll estimate was 1250 to 2500 but is probably much higher. Whole families just disappeared. Bodies were washing up along the coast and nearby islands for months afterwards. The government decided to relocate the survivors to high ground and thus was born the up town and relocation areas. Unfortunately the corruption that happens in the Philippines took its bite the picturesque areas were exploited for up market housing that the survivors could not afford and the relocation projects in the less picturesque areas were asigned to housing the homeless. These relocation houses were not properly built no electricity, no proper plumbing, no drainage lots so small that the people have no room to grow a garden... A lot of the houses are basically shells for a two story dwelling but no interior structure was built so there is no upper floor in the building. Millions of dollars werecontributed by major corporations for the construction by companies like Shell but the money to finish these homes properly just disappeared. You might want to visit the relocation areas and talk to some locals while you are there. Or perhaps take a cab ride down all ng the river areas at night and ask the taxi driver about the ghost customers that are regularly seen in the area. However many cab drivers won't go there at nightdue to past encounters. My ex girlfriend comes from that area and her fater is a taxi driver. One rainy night he picked up a man who was soaked in that area he asked to be taken to a street where all the buildings haf been destroyed in the flood. When her father turned the corner into that street he asked where the man wanted to be let out and the man didn't answer he looked in the rear view mirror and the man was gone leaving only a wet patch on the back seat of the taxi....
@That Philippines Life Any of them places you were at Michael has such beautiful views and especially the wedding venue wooow so cool.😮 Enjoy have fun guys.
Thanks for featuring and visiting my hometown. It is a beautiful and progressive city and one of the largest in Mindanao. It is located in an area well-protected from typhoons and is the major outlet for products from Bukidnon and other provinces of Mindanao. It is a safe place where Christians and Muslims live peacefully. It also has one of the best universities in the county, Xavier University/Ateneo de Cagayan. The US is also building a US military airbase in the old Lumbia Airport, which has a very modern large airport .
Kat thats a pretty blue dress. First time ever seen recycle cans in the Philippines. Looks like Texas Toast! Very nice drone shots. CDO does look very nice. Congrats to Chrissy and Ron. Hope they have many anniversary's to celebrate. Good job on this video. Hope your knee feels better soon, Michael...Jim
Michael, the quality of your videos continues to improve. I mean they were fine before, but the timing, score, drone shots, etc. Turns into a real “show”. Well done
Hey Mikel great to see you Kat out and about great job.Quick question do you leave money in Canada and transfer when you need it, thinking of retiring in the Philippines thanks.😊
Wow enjoy guys 👏its my home town. You have a lot of place to explore in Cagayan de Oro City. I hope you can have dinner in the High Ridges Restaurant its was very beautiful .
I've spent a lot of time on Mindanao.. I love the island... It's huge and a lot of variety and usually good prices away from the big cities... Yes, there are places you may want to stay away from... Where there have been incidents of terrorist activity in the past... That being said, there are still many spots on Mindanao that are as safe as anywhere else in the Philippines in my opinion..... And lots of variety in the geography
I just checked the couple’s whom got married in the video,just looking at the thumbnail of the their videos they sexualize it way to much to get views that makes you not wanting to look at their videos .The people whom try to use every title and thumbnail just to get views will not grow because people are tired of click baiting and neediness to get veiws .Keep your channel the way it is Mike and never change it ,good luck man.
@@annasd8435 I think one of the main reasons why Western men move to south east asia is to find a traditional wife or girlfriend ,thats in addition to the other reasons .But looking at that couple,they remind me of typical western couple where the woman makes sexual jokes in public and shows way too much of her body in public ,and they guy is the usual simp whom shuts his mouth just to keep because he think otherwise he wont get a woman in his life.Thats being said ,people are free to live their lives the way they like it, but I really think she is representing a very small percentage of Filipina women (usually some females around BGC in Manila ) .
When people in the comments talking bad about CDO and how awful it is, they don't know how big CDO is. It is 6x bigger than Iloilo City. I grew up in Iligan City, an hour drive from CDO and we always go there for family outing.
@@KutWrite I feel bad for him on that edit I had to upload this 4 times last night over 7 hours of edits for all the copyright claims on the wedding singers singing!
Nice Videos as always. i am your silent subscriber for months now and this is my 1st comment. I wonder what brand and model of drone you are using? Also, correct me if I am wrong your videos are on what fps?
I’m waiting on my past renewal and I’m looking to retire in the Philippines. Where is a good place to start over there? I just started watching you about 3 weeks ago. Thank you
@@ericnyberg1074 oh, I always thot they live in CDO as that's what they kept saying in their vlogs, I've watched a lot of Bret's vlogs when he was staying with Kyle
Hi Mike it looks like you have gout on your knees. I have gout sometimes it flares up on the knees or my feet, or sometime on my fingers. Anyways you just need to avoid all the foods that trigger a flare up. And it is different for each person. Mine is nuts, beans, red meat, innards, tomatoes, red grapes, and some dark meat fish and some shell fish.
Yes, those listed foods esp red meat, beans & organ meats, are aggravating to one of my brothers. He is also careful with mushrooms & spinach, though now the docs don’t advise against any of the veggies like they did in past. A big one to avoid is alcohol. & he swears by drinking a shot of tart dark cherry juice daily. Sometimes I drink it for intermittent simple arthritic joint pain, becoz of his praising it so much. But it is too tart for me. 🍒🍋🍋🍋
Lot across is not owned by SM... Owned by a private university but they're developing it into a township too called "Manresa township". The faraway lot with the low rise condominiums you pointed at is the one owned by SM lol
@@dynastyman36 false . All of Mindanao is NOT Duterte’s Territory . It’s the people saying that and that’s what Duterte ‘s WISH .. but It’s not true in perfect sense of its History and for the reality of History record . Stop spreading lies. Stay relevant to what is discussed here . And besides Michael is enjoying CDO specifically . He had not been to Davao yet , not at all . Don’t give the Dutertes the WRONG notion that the whole Mindanao is “their territory “. Not unless a New Philippine History book will designate it to be so . But for now Mindanao Territory belongs to the people who lives in Mindanao and NOT to the Dutertes alone. .. Davaoenos can claim that The Dutertes rules some of Davao but NOT the entire Davao either .
Well tve view okay, but nothing compared to where I live mate! Angono Rizal top of mountains they have lots of places with Amazing views of Manila plus Laguna Lake, Coffee Rush, Over the top, just to mension two places!, make a great blogg for your platform
@@williamscott-ryan1538 I’m not correcting your spelling . I ‘m just verifying if you meant Mindanao or Mindoro . Since the topic in most of the comments was about the danger in some parts of Mindanao . I understand you are referring to the NPA but not sure other than the Muslims if you meant the NPAs in Mindanao . Thats all
@@williamscott-ryan1538you're not a RU-vidr you're not bringing awareness to yourself when you were there my friend this guy has a bar he has businesses he has a big Channel he's already at Target you're literally and nobody you Blended in he just did a video looking for land they now he got a chuck of money in the bank
Real men just need someone that is just supportive sometimes. Not so energetic to overpower you. He need some sense of tranquility and a partner to support him at the same time...!!!!
MIGHT WANT TO TRY ALLEVE ( NAPROXEN) FOR YOUR KNEE. I NOT ONLY IS A DECENT PAIN KILLER IT LAST 12 HOURS AND IT IS AN ANTI INFLAMMITORY DRUG AS WELL. A COMPRESSION WRAP ON YOUR KNEE IS A GOOD IDEA TOO.
