BEST ROADTRIP IN THE PHILIPPINES Davao Oriental (No Tourist!!)

We recently took an epic road trip in the Philippines, through Davao Oriental, from Davao to Mati, to Cateel and finally to Hinatuan Bay.
Thank you to Hertz for lending us a brand new car for this trip. Hertz will be opening their Davao office in May 2019, so make sure to contact them if you are planning to drive in this region!

"When you travel with people who hold the same values and have the same lust for discovery as you do, you will never feel alone". Brilliant message to end the video!

[@patrickanthonycoralde1109]

All these so called "influencers" should ask Erwan its true meaning. Great Content + Cinematography is what makes his vlogs exciting.

[@christinemarjorietura42]

TRUEEEEE!!!!

[@arvemvillarinirog-irog9960]

Patrick Anthony Coralde I totally AGREEEEEE! Vlogging at its best!

[@mackymelendrez6685]

Korek :)

[@Monggoism]

Addition to that is, he is well-versed and can attract millions of viewers. #KonyoBoy

[@anonymousswagger7975]

And he has the budget. But I agree, infulencers should ask him

[@caritas7523]

erwan's my guy. he can cook, he's hands on- not afraid to get his hands dirty, and he's always courteous. lucky u anne.

[@cutiepie7547]

I like a guy who can cook, adventurous and know a lot of skills.. very impressive this guy Erwan❤

Thanks Erwan for featuring the beauty of Mindanao and honoring its people by actually getting to know the place, respecting the culture and even learning basic phrases! I've always had a love-hate relationship with non-Mindanaoans who come here to visit and be amazed at its beauty (thinking all of it is war-torn), tells a lot about how they perceive Mindanao. I just have a chip on my shoulder because I always get asked ridiculous questions when traveling up North. There are no foreign lands, it is the traveler only who is foreign. Next time you go on a trip to an "undiscovered" place, do your research, dip into the local culture, respect its people. Thanks again so much Erwan for doing all this!

[@jasz28]

💯

[@aiouepaca]

I feel likd im watching a modern Nat Geo 😁 So cool, the content, the editing skills, cinematography, background music and everything!! I stan for this!! Keep up the great work Mr. Erwan! 🤞🏻

[@jobewabisabi]

I appreciate the level of awareness being raised by Erwan in terms of caring for the environment and its community.

[@hanitoy5793]

I usually speed up the videos that Im watching, but Erwann's travel vids are an exception. The narrative is candy to my ears.

[@featrmedia]

thanks!

[@DanielMarshsidetracked]

love this content :)

[@tinlm9945]

Erwan is "the man"...Anne is so blessed to have this kind of man...God bless u more Erwan!!!

Ohhh the endless potential of philippines tourism if the government should prioritize it. Thousands of local jobs will be created.

[@santih2569]

😍😍😍 it will really help a lot of people :)

[@stargen7085]

Love how you highlight Kumar and gang... amazing content!

[@teelafia]

Erwan for Netflix! Btw, I love how you speak more Filipino words now. Keep it up!

[@ceciliaelio731]

yes yes yes,more tagalog speaking for erwan.

[@teelafia]

PinayGandaWorld Filipinos are already fluent in English, what are you talking about? I was stating the point that Erwan should speak more of our native tongue as he is also Filipino. He is fluent in English and French, and probably some other languages, but not Filipino. Hearing him speak those words makes me proud that he is already trying.

[@sensii112]

PinayGandaWorld what other asian countries? Most asian countries don't speak english idiot

[@jasonandaya3850]

PinayGandaWorld. Oops! May nasabon.

[@richaeladelacruz8658]

@@sensii112 HAHAHA burn. Nice one. 👏

[@sweetheartsakura3375]

What I admire in Erwan is He does things responsibly! He cooks, wash dishes, go to the market... helps change his car's tires... and even is aware and that responsibility of bringing your plastics and wastes w you and dspose them later to any garbage dsposal or something..that's what a real man and pipol should be...regardless wheather rich or not!

[@JunLim_]

Your Travel vlogs are best if shown on netflix 👌 plus you voice is perfect for podcast (deep and relaxing to ears)

[@xiezhai21TV]

True

[@annestrella1167]

I love how you include the Filipino guys in your videos and introduce them. You are such a humble person the way you interact with them. ❤

[@nezeljoykrmela8988]

My Czech husband and I used to lived and traveled as well there in Davao Oriental. Totally no tourist. At all. So rare to see some foreigners and even local tourists. Everything is so cheap and all. So sad that we weren't able to meet you so we can joined and showed you where we used to go. Some people are so scared to go and wander in Mindanao area because of the fake news about this island but the truth is there's only few places that you mustn't go. There's a lot of beautiful places, falls, beaches, spring and all there. And to meet the native people are so wonderful. So happy that you gave it a shot @erwan heussaff Your editing skills are so lit! You deserve more than a million subs. God bless!

[@checbiazon3371]

Dude this deserves a freaking award! Awesome bro, bravo. We need more of this.

[@Sheng01427]

Very compelling storytelling. I was hooked to watch every second of this video. I also love how Erwan chose not to reveal the specific locations of their trip sparking the curiosity of the audience, and encouraging them to connect with the locals themselves. I also love how the simple local businesses were featured and named. They seem to serve as clues to the locations of the trip, even daring the audience to start packing and head off to an adventure.

[@cherinabalmes1365]

Sobrang nga nga ako sa ganda ng Philippines❤❤❤ More roadtrips please sana kasama na si wifeeey next time❤❤

[@marioiicarag3824]

New subscriber here from California. Your vlogs are exceptionally made. Very detailed and informative. It's like watching a VICE documentary, maybe even better. I hope I get to go back to my country in the future and experience all the stuff you did .... the way you did them. Keep up the great job.

[@niezelz4136]

I really like how you capture and present your videos. You’re humble enough and blended well with the fighter boys. More please!!!

Living abroad, I realized why there’s lots of fruits and coconuts in the Philippines especially Mindanao, the climate is perfect for the fruit bearing trees to thrive. The northern part of the Philippines like Batanes is beautiful and cool, but the cool weather is not suitable for fruit bearing trees and coconuts. Truly different regions has it’s own beauty and blessings from heaven above.
