If you needs help, don't ever hesitate to ask Filipinos, they are always willing to help just tell them what you need. You have to learn also to cook like in a camping setting to use fire wood incase you don't have Gas to cook. Use the resources around you. You must learn the Filipino ways suvival technique for emergency purpose because you are in the Philippines, always bring with you your children to learn as early as their young age.

[@IDi-Matokoseke]

Hello from Belgium ! I really think you gave her a very good advice ! She has already managed herself quite good but you made a point saying that she had to learn filipino survival technique !

[@temujinkhan6326]

You make it sound like Philippines is in the dark ages. Alot of filipinos live in luxury in philippines.come to America and you can live the living condition you talked about as well.

[@milgibson9674]

Great advice bro, FILIPPINOS ARE VERSATILE They can survive

[@vloggingismyhobby]

Yah thats right. Because life in the Rural province its a common thing to use a woods for cooking. Because Gas was so expensive to buy. Or it is too far from the store thats why its a commin thing to cook using fire woods even the small kids knows how to do it.😉👍

[@IDi-Matokoseke]

@@vloggingismyhobby Hello ! totally right but Jelena have not yet reacted so far directly but she read our constructive or informative interventions !

[@estongmaceda5531]

Good voice and nice music, welcome to our land Phil.,

[@hildagaurino3505]

Once a person sing her/his heart radiates good energy to the surroundings 💖🥰

[@judeaquino9457]

I'm glad that our small country, the Philippines becomes a 'bridge' for people like you and your Ukrainian neighbor Igor. I'm really very happy that here in the Philippines you both find harmony and live peacefully with each other in one community, here in our country, under the same Philippine sky.

[@ma.ofeliagaufo1303]

Some helpful advice so you won't experience no gas when you're about to cook at least have a spare gas tank if you can afford it so you can replaced it right away. If u don't have a spare tank, write the date on the side of the tank using a chalk when you replaced it so you can monitor when you're about to make a refill.usually an 11kg. Gas tank lasts for about a month and a week depending on how many times you cook in a day. And ask if your gas supplier have a delivery service you can call anytime when you ran out of gas and sometimes they also helped with replacing/connecting the gas tank to your stove.

[@susanschroth8853]

True

[@Onelovelyday-At-atime]

Yes, You are right. They do deliver profane gas or lpg. , at your door steps too (: That's how it is, with us before, way back home...

[@jesusitorayala8214]

yes I hope Jelena have her invoice, and call the store for delivery of gas at the same time check her gas stove and accessories

[@fmpop2383]

When Jelena sings, I feel like I just want to lay down in a hammock under a tree, sun is setting, wind blowing through my face, time slows down, I close my eyes and say to myself, "Thank you Lord for my beautiful life".

As a Filipino it makes me feel proud and happy to see the joy you feel being HOME.... Always take care God bless us all😇😇😇

[@am21miranda61]

Challenge? Take it or not, that’s where you become more tougher in life. I’d rather live in life that I struggle a lot than living in a luxury life and life turns around the person who lives in good life will have no experience to surpass their lives, but a person who is life is struggled a lot the life would have more easier for them. So keep it that way because living in prestigious life with no nothing in life is hard than people who knows everything and life becomes richer for them is just a piece of cake 👊👏👍

[@HanginOutWithStan]

I love your channel very much Jelena. You are always so happy and cheerful, always positive no matter what life throws at you. I love your singing. Sing all the time if you want to. Do not worry about what others think. You are a precious person. You have much love in your heart. You are a wonderful mother. The world needs many more women like you. May our God continue blessing you and your children.

[@MsJelena]

[@bellaliggayu]

May God keep on blessing you Jelena, you are a superb mom. I love you.

[@quantumleap2302]

Jelena ask the gas dealer store if they have a cellphone number and if they have free delivery service. Usually you can just call them and they will deliver and install the gas. This will make replacing empty gas easier for you.

[@lukadoncic7205]

I give tips though 20 pesos if I have extra

[@rossaskeysha1369]

That's my problem before refilling the empty gas tank. But, we're already using induction stove you may consider purchasing one. But, in case still you need backup with your gas tank in case there's no electricity.

[@leocabs3802]

Mutya ka inday Jelena. you like to sing OPM tagalog at Bisayan song ah! Good for you adapting filipino culture. Lived simple life in a beautiful island is amazing!❤️❤️❤️🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@definitelynotyuri7797]

I love the way you lived here in the Philippines it's so simple!

[@tonyjtaps18]

Normally, the store selling gas tanks gives free service and delivery to all their customers. All you have to do is call their business number and they'll deliver you the gas tank, and they'll connect it themselves.

I'm smitten by your vlogs & contents. I'm glad you're living simple, happy lives with your good kids in the Philippines. You have a very good voice. Don't keep it to yourself. I encourage you to keep singing. If you're a Christian, you can look for a church & serve to sing praise & worship as your ministry. In that way, you'll touch people's lives to bless others. The Lord will be pleased. God's will pour out His rewards & blessings in your life & family. I love to sing too & I serve in the church. Study "Goodness of God." It's a very beautiful song. I know you'll like it. Take care, stay safe & may God be with you & your family always ❤️ 🙏.

I think your neighbor has a You Tube channel too. Your heart is at home in PH. A Song: I hope you never lose your sense of wonder, You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger, May you never take one single breath for granted, God forbid love ever leave you empty handed, I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean, Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance. I hope you dance... I hope you dance.......
