1st Time In Philippines Mindanao Province 🇵🇭

Mindanao, Philippines Least Visited Island
Previous video, street food tour in Manila ➡️ • 1st Time Eating Filipi...
I came to Mindanao in southern Philippines. Out of all the islands in the Philippines, this one is the least visited by tourists. Until recently, many governments even warned their people to travel there. Some areas of Mindanao are still not advised to visit. Luckily I was invited by to join a local family for a week. I am always happy to experience the local life off the beaten paths. Big thanks to Crishel and her family for being so hospitable! Check out her channel too ‪@filipinalife‬

[@chaw294]

Wonderful of Crishel to show you around, to see and learn more about the locals life off the beaten paths. What a feast of coconut wine ! Aaah..that cassava "kuih" is similar to our "kuih bingka"...yummy and it's my favourite 😂 Lots of selfies at the market 👍😄 Great haircut and you always look so much younger. May god bless you abundantly for your generosity and kindness. Cool video as always and thank you very much for bringing us along the journey. Cheers and have a great weekend, Ken.

5:28 Ken the rules that you're refering is the 8 ball pool, where one player must pocket balls of the group numbered 1 through 7 (solid colors), while the other player has 9 thru 15 (stripes). In the Philippines the most popular pool game is 9 ball.

[@frankieboy59]

It's actually a bit funny because I began following "filipina life" and you (Ken abroad) exactly the same day for I think almost 1 year ago... And now my two favorit vloggers are doing their vlogging together... Christels family really are welcoming you so friendly and it shows what an kind and nice family they all are... Stay safe my friend and looking forward to your next upload together with Christel... Greetings from Denmark..

[@KenAbroad]

[@herroldvervloet]

Ich schaue mir gerade einige deiner Videos an, da ich normalerweise nicht viel Zeit habe, sie zu erstellen. Was für ein schönes Video wieder. Die Atmosphäre ist fantastisch. Gut, einen lokalen Führer dabei zu haben.

[@RoyFJ65]

Mindanao is the best of the Philippines and understated.

[@Siopaoko]

Tuba can really make you drank. It's made from coconut.

[@henryferdinandandoyo3474]

Mingsamot ka ug ka pogi Ken sa imong new haircut.you look youngee rhan your age.rhanks for coming to mindanao.amping perme.

[@fortuneybiernas5778]

The game you are describing is called 8-Ball, the solids and half ones, then hole the 8 last to win the game. What the lady described is called rotation, where you hole the ball from 1 to 15 in order. They add the numbers on the ball and the one that gets 61 or more first wins. The game you actually played is called 9-ball where there are just 9 balls and you hole the 9 ball last to win the game.

[@user-jw4hv3tz1v]

crishel is so pretty

Nice village, it looks very simular to the rural aereas in Thailand, dont you think so? Will this lady be your future gf, Ken?

[@rolandnieves4891]

Hi Ken, we are having a conversation with an account on facebook under your name. I just want to know if it's you or not.

[@KenAbroad]

I don't think so! Be careful, there are people pretending to be me trying to scam people. You can simply check if it's my original account by looking at the follower number and if all my videos are on that page. I currently have 164.000 follower on Facebook.

[@KenAbroad]

Can you post the link to that account here so I can report and block them from my page? KZbin will block links being posted here but I will still be able to see it

[@rolandnieves4891]

I felt sad because that account already offered a collaboration with my Friend who is starting to vlog. We are the one who met you in Luneta/Rizal Park by the way.

[@rolandnieves4891]

I already posted the link here and I also sent it to your tiktok account just to make sure that you'll have the link.

[@reneurzua1492]

I tried Tuba with my father in law in Davao. We smashed a whole gallon of that stuff. The next 3 days I was shitting my brains out. Overall, good times
