Oh my God.. this is not just vlogging.. This is an art... a top notch video.. Kudos Barry. Hope you'll enjoy your stay here and explore more beautiful places in my country.. The Pearl of the Orient Seas....
The Philippines has many flaws but the Filipinos' kindness and generosity make up for it. Thank you for this piece of art. Consider the Philippines your second home. ❤🏠
not just flaws but it's a sad reality of rampant poverty and if you look the country compared to other south east Asians, Philippines is really lagging , behind its frustrating to see it anyway, the only take away is the people, the warm and hospitality of the pinoys
Coming to the Philippines..is a Precious Chance to ..to Refresh..to Get Energized..to SEE THE WORLD IN A DIFFERENT, LAIDBACK PERSPECTIVE!! -- A WORLD WHERE MATERIALISM IS NOT THE KING!.. WHERE YOUR PEACE AND SERENITY IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE!!
Barry, once more, you did it great. And so much more. The carefully crafted narrations, interwoven with your down-to-earth storytelling of day to day happenings, citing poignant reasons why you call PH your home, the haunting musical score, and of course the tantalizing allure of Siargao, back-to-back with the mesmerizing beauty of the quaint Balabac---All in, another master stroke, another Masterpiece indeed!
Grabe nakakakilabot, nakakamangha, nakakaiyak na nakakatuwa, para kang director, cameraman at editor Ng sarili mong pelikula. Salamat sa pagbisita sa aming Bansa. You are so amazing kudos sir Barry! You are always welcome here to the Philippines 🇵🇭

OMG! I love your videos...and it seems like I am watching a movie....I immediately subscribed....thank you for appreciating our country and our people.
Superb cinematography and engaging storytelling. Well done! I'm considering going to Siargao in summer 2025. The video was super helpful and insightful. So good to hear you feel at home in the Philippines.
Only the most virgin Pacific Ocean 🌊 water 💧 that enters the Philippines and exits to various Asian countries due to the rotation of the earth. Love the Philippine beaches. Same is true about air.
Check out Camiguin with its 7 volcanoes, famous sand bar 'White Island', and their sunken cemetery on your next trip here. And also Biliran which a famous vlogger couple called "the Hawaii of the Philippines." So many hidden gems and scenic spots there, especially Sambawan Islands. :)
Sorry for your loss😢 You're always welcome in the Philippines. Another very beautiful and nicely done film 👍👍👍 Hoping to see more of your adventures and (misadventures 😁) in our beautiful country.
Hello Mr. Briggs! This is pretty awesome display of a Unique Culture and a Paradise destination in the Philippines---- My Motherland that I LOVE. Thanks a million for taking your time and energy. I appreciate YOU!!!!
This is beautifully & artistically done, i still remember your first previous video man, well made. I’m a Filipino living in Florida & hopefully one day visit these 2 paradise. Welcome back to the Philippines! 🙏🏼🇵🇭🇺🇸✈️
Hello fellow Seattlelite! Your informative and cinematic videos about the Philippines are surely helpful and gave me ideas on where to go when I visit this beautiful country...! Bet Joe was with you all thru your adventures in Siargao and Balabac.....
This is what I always say about travelling in Philippines islands. It's so hard to travel but after all the hurdles, paradise. Just like getting a girl, you need to pursue the hardest road 😅 paradise when you get her ❤ that's Philippines islands. 😊
Somewhere in Balabac, there is a Philippines and American military base. The most beautiful island in the Philippines is called BATANES. This island is sort of IRELAND AND SCOTLAND only in tropical settings. The landscape of the island 🏝 🏝 is BREATHTAKING AVATAR. So, if you been to the southernmost Philippines, Batanes is in the Northernmost. Go youtube it, see for yourself.
Felt like I'm watching a blockbuster movie. Thank you for showing this to the world. You make us proud filipinos. A masterpiece indeed every detail on this vlog touches my heart and soul. It reminds me where I came from a humble beginning.❤
Sir Barry ..what a touching videos about my country ..thank you for seeing and feeling to yourself that you feel home in our country that it makes you feel of coming back
Awww! If I only knew you were going back here in the Philippines! I wanna meet you in person sir Barry! The last part of the video is the most beautiful and emotional part of your journey in this video, I'm sure that Joe is glad and happy that you made it!!!
What a sweet and meaningful journey you've had in one of the most beautiful places on earth! You are truly blessed, Barry. Thank you for sharing! It was quite moving. I hope I can visit one of those places someday.
This isn’t just vlogging, it’s a masterpiece of storytelling and craft. You’ve created a top-tier video that goes beyond what we usually see. Your storytelling, the breathtaking visuals, and the passion you’ve captured in every frame--simply phenomenal. Kudos to you, Barry J. Briggs, for your extraordinary work! We’re beyond grateful that you’ve fallen in love with the Philippines. You’ve not only explored its beauty but shared it with the world in a way that makes all of us Filipinos proud. Your videos show the heart and soul of our country, and for that, we cannot thank you enough. I truly hope that you, along with your family, will continue to explore more of our islands and maybe even consider relocating to the Philippines someday. It would be an honor to have you call this place home. Thank you for promoting our country with such love and admiration. You are always welcome here, Barry!
You made me cry, Barry watching this video. I hope somehow, somewhere I could visit beautiful places in our country, the Philippines. There are lots of islands that have more to explore. Like my father's hometown in Sta. Monica Oras, Eastern Samar, which surrounded with water. Awesome video😊😊😊Hello from Tennessee, USA
Thank you for sharing this video. This is lovely❤ you find your home here in the Philippines., where your heart truly belongs. You speak for your soul. As deep like an ocean. God bless you.🙏
The choice of clips, the scenes, the vids, the soundtrack, the editing, the narration and script--man, you are born for this, this is like the NatGeo of vlogging! "Vlogumentary" is an appropriate coinage. It has a warm personal touch too. Subbing.

Honestly, you have a better understanding or way of storytelling about the Philippines' tourist destinations. Perhaps in your previous life you are a Filipino native or one of the locals you've encountered and make instant connection. Keep it coming and going.
Welcome back sir nice presentation on your vlog. You miss the barangay fiest last month. Many foreigners experience the fiesta and they welcome by filipinos culture... enjoy ❤🎉😂
Barry, that was the main reason we have to come back every year is to explore the beautiful islands of the Philippines. Been to Siargao and this time will visit Balabac.
I love your video. You went to places we haven’t been too. Balabac is truly amazing. Thank you for loving our country. Looking forward for more videos like this.
A beautiful journey --- a beginning of something wonderful and a non stop discovery or uncovering another purpose of one’s life--to breathe life into your life❤
Thank you for sharing my beautiful country🇵🇭. This is outstanding footage to show respect for our people and the love you have brought to the Philippines ❤ and call this home.
The tradition and culture, the sceneries and beaches and the people are all amazing. Welcome to the home of happiest, friendliest people, great singers, dancers, beauty queens and lot of festivals, malls, churches and social media capital of the world I think, that is in the Philippines.
