[@edisonescapes8478]

New subscriber here. Excited for your travel series. Hopefully you can travel to the other less touristy areas but beautiful places in the Philippines like Calayan Islands and Apayao Province in the north.

[@2FrenchinManila]

@@BadBoy-gx3jy who's your uncle haha ? :)

[@2FrenchinManila]

@@edisonescapes8478 thank you, we will try, we are shooting our second episode at the end of the week :) stay tune on our instagram @2frenchinmanila

we are waiting for your content now haha

welcoming someone else while he's still on hiatus 😂😂😂

[@beautifullycreatable]

The simplicity of life of people like lolo Limtang hit my heart & gives me realization every now & then to give what we can to those in need & try to minimize wants & pride.

[@2FrenchinManila]

That's a beautiful way to think.

[@TA_1444]

si lolo stress free... he's eating organic vegetables, meat fish.. his exercise everyday is planting rice and cleaning the field.. 😻

[@2FrenchinManila]

Well said, it could be a great ads for vegan people lol. but it's not easy to do this kind of job at 72yo.

[@jmomandia]

The children are extraordinarily friendly, even by Filipino standards.

[@2FrenchinManila]

Yes, and some were not used to tourist because they are what they called there ''covid kids'' so they didn't get used to tourist

[@brilate]

I love this first new episode it’s like a documentary film showcasing the village people it’s life and it’s beautiful culture! The story of lolo Imtang is very interesting!Can’t wait for the next one!

[@2FrenchinManila]

Hey thank you for your feedback. Indeed Lolo Limtang was very inspiring. We cannot wait to create new videos.

[@rowanalindayo6017]

Hahaha.. so good as documentary.. In ifugao, the tinawon(translated as yearly) rice can only be harvested once a year,, very delicious rice.. The song they sung , itetem ta hunggopa te tehtun nakaktola an nalpuh nidaddawih nidaddawidawin boble is a welcome song to a friend or love ones who came from a far away welcoming the person in his home, it is translated as "lower staircase so that i can get in because i am cold that i came from a afaraway so faraway place.. it has a continuation.. a really nice native song.. You notice that Appu(grandparent) Limtang speaks a different language(ayangan language) that that of the guide(tuwali language..we have different dialects, depending on your tribe,, or location..

[@ArchieS-id8lf]

Cool, my fave couple is back. I'm kidding boys. Looks majestic, those mountains.

[@janettestonne5243]

This is my first view of your channel and is totally a different content. Don't give up action speaks louder than words. Filipinos are friendly and shares even the simplest form of what they have and what they are. CHEERS

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thank you so much we will!!

[@marcandtikayhappiness2000]

Hello Nelson and John, nice to see you again together. And what a great experience being in this wonderful region and meeting these local people. We can’t wait for the next one…

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thanks John, we are working on a 10 episode serie for this year so yes more episode are coming

[@gericornista8133]

Bayanihan/neighborhood cooperation spirit is very much alive in the province obviously! Lolo is very admirable indeed!!

[@2FrenchinManila]

Yes but according to the local people there, the Bayanihan spirit is slowly disappearing. Hopefully this value remain in the futur.

[@avschannel8953]

Wow! I’m so touched with this video you made and the experience is so meaningful to you and also to the people youve met at Banaue.

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thank you so much for your words, Indeed it was a truly moving experience for us. We really enjoyed creating this video.

I went to Batad terraces 2003 would you believe that long ago. I was the slow in our group. My biggest mistake was that I was wearing flip flops so it was slippery and I had to pray for dear life the whole time. It was very breath taking because the rice stalks was all green. Anyways thank you for your blog guys because it brings back good memories. Hats off to you for your adventurous spirit and love your blog guys!

Love this video. Thanks for this vlog. Proud of you and Thank you Apu Limtang for preserving our heritage for cultivating our land our terraces so next generation could see the beauty of it. I hope they are more like you who value, our land, our tradition ,our culture. Happy and saddening to watch this. video. Happy because it potrays the culture, the values , tradition and caring of the terraces. Saddening but still hoping the next generation will appreciate and value our heritage and be proud of it and be thankful that they are people who are willing to preserve it.

[@carlenej5200]

Amazing! I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel. I've been watching lots of foreign vloggers in the Philippines but this video sets you apart! It's like a documentary one would see on television. I love how respectful you are with lolo and the other farmers. And I can see a genuine interest on your part to learn about the people and the culture and not just doing it for the views. I'm a fan! I'll go binge watch your other videos now 😊

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thank you Carlene for your kind word, we just changed our content recently and will post more immersion like that. We are happy you enjoyed it!

[@nkalvz1359]

Great vlogumentary! You deserve a lot more views. Thank you for visiting the native people of Ifugao and learning about their culture. I was moved to tears by your interview with Lolo Limtang; there is no shame in being a farmer and cultivating your land. Some people have a lot of money but are miserable. I hope he knows that he inspired me, as a younger generation, to persevere in the face of adversity and appreciate life.

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thank you so much for your comment!

[@ramxmar]

[@2FrenchinManila]

Thank you

[@tito-a]

A great video. A reminder that, in our search for meaning and happiness in the modern hectic world, perhaps the answer lies in the very simplicity of life and living all along. Having been born and raised in the Philippines but having lived more than half of my life now in the West, I have learned that there is wisdom and tranquility in simplicity. The kind of life I left behind in the name of progress. The modern world and everyone in it is complicated, and perhaps this is the reason why happiness and peace are elusive. In the modern world, it is easy to be complicated. The real challenge however, is how to be simple. Gladly, a new subscriber.

[@2FrenchinManila]

We are happy to have you on board in our channel, I personnaly share and understand your vision. See you soon

[@Catcat00-00]

Lovely experience! Thanks for sharing with us. There's just so much peace and serenity to be felt in one's soul when up in the mountains. I hope lolo Limtang knows that his work in the farm is commendable and very important, and we owe farmers like him a lot.
