[@ataricatplays]

Great monthly option on the first place. Actually, its downright fantastic! Loving the channel, keep it up 🔥

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thanks. I think you will be amazed by some of the options here. The main challenge seems to have people allow me to film.

[@DLuxProductions]

What a charming video and such a concise and articulate young man. Please keep up the fantastic work.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thank you sir.

[@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65]

Is this your mom Nate?…..Your real mom, I should say😂

[@expatlifestyle2000]

No. Lol. they obviously have a heart of gold like my mother though.

[@bluesart7]

Agreed, very able and likeable young man.

[@Billy_B_Goat]

Good to knows... thanks for the tour. Peace B Goat

[@expatlifestyle2000]

My pleasure. Thanks for watching.

[@bluesart7]

Thank you Nate, love your video style, no nonense and thorough. Bejie's long term looks perfect for settling down for a while, looks nice and clean and nice greenery view as you say. I would feel blessed to have that place. I'm 60 and still doing weightlifting so stairs are a good thing for me, fitness wise. Will have to remember that name and hope he has something in future.Nice and informative video, thank you Nate and the people for allowing viewing. Take care and God Bless👍👍💪

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thank you for the kind words. I agree .

[@DirectCurrent4u]

These places look great! There are so many nice places to stay in Malaybalay! Thanks for taking the time to share these places with us. Looking forward to seeing your next video.👍🏻

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thanks DC. I'll have some more informative ones coming then probably some tourism style ones.

[@garyschwitz3383]

Great info again! You do a wonderful job as a blogger. You have natural talent for it and are very well spoken with good articulation. Thanks.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Wow, thank you so much. You are very generous with your kind words.

[@thatkajunguy8029]

2 videos in the same week, you're working too hard Nate 😂😂 All the places look great, love the outdoor areas and the ladies look fun and lovely..... Another winner 😎👍

[@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65]

Where are you from Kajun guy?

[@thatkajunguy8029]

​@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 I'm from Louisiana, about 40 southwest of New Orleans in what's called bayou country... Are you from La ?

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thanks brother. The chicks around here are real sweethearts.

[@thatkajunguy8029]

​@@expatlifestyle2000 Man I laughed when you were talking about amendments and that lovely lady came into the shot...... Almost booked a trip right then and there 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65]

Yes, moved to Bayou Vista in kindergarten outside of Morgan City, but grew up in NOLA. My sister lives in Des Allemands. I’m in the Philippines now….going to Mindanao to hang out with Nate Tuesday for a couple of weeks.

[@Ryan-wi3ry]

The studio air bnb at 217 a month isn’t bad at all. I’m assuming there is an additional charge for water and electric past one day. Maybe a monthly or weekly charge if you were to go that route.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

I know the 10k pesos he had said internet included utilities not. There are some places like mine and green ridge appartella where the price is cheaper and the utilities are included.

[@Ryan-wi3ry]

@@expatlifestyle2000 you wanna check out a hidden gem. Check out santa Magdalena sorsogon. It looks like there’s not much going on in the town. But there are probably no tourists a few restaurants white sand turquoise water. An hour from sorsogon city. And like 10 minutes from Matnog port. That’s my new google maps hot spot 😂. I’ve got like 20 places I want to check out within an hour from a city but with that tropical paradise feel.

[@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65]

Did you go to Bejie Grill and Restobar that’s around the corner? Where do you recommend that we stay…..you know I want a pool? Do like FAST internet though too

[@expatlifestyle2000]

We will probably get you in the resort style places on the outskirts of the city. We can always drive in for fine dining options.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

I didn't go to the bejie bar and grill...

[@koufax174]

You have a wonderful channel. Thank you for this information. It will be very useful for me. You provide very helpful information. Thank you for your efforts 🙏🏼

[@expatlifestyle2000]

So nice of you to say. I try to have a channel with a lot of actionable information. Much more to come so please stay tuned.

[@koufax174]

Your efforts are appreciated.

[@LeonardMarlin]

Good video very informative.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thanks, im glad you liked it.

[@stevesilver7437]

Good one Nate that is a great price 😮

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thanks. Plenty of options in many price ranges.

[@user-iv6sf9vt8k]

Second place is out of my budget but the first one was great value.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

I try to keep it low cost too. People of every budget come out here but mine is low...

[@deanrotering879]

Fantastic video. Well done.😊

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Thank you for saying so.

[@U_KCuF]

Its cold weather in malaybalay no need aircon

[@expatlifestyle2000]

This is very true. I run mine about 3 days a week for a few hours when it's hot in the afternoon. Thanks for watching.

[@bluesart7]

@@expatlifestyle2000 Yep, only gets to about 31 centigrade here in summer, (NZ) down to 0 at times in winter, so would def be using aircon overnight and hottest time of the day as well🌄

[@bluesart7]

Hey Nate, do you know of many weightlifting gyms there? Cheers mate👍

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Tons. Alot of national bodybuilders come from malaybalay. I'll have a video about it eventually.

[@jlynnburton9718]

I see you listed the 1st room for about $28 per night. How much Discount for a Month long stay while exploring the city & area ? How far are these from the City Center ?

[@expatlifestyle2000]

That's between you and the owner. It's not far. Like 4 minute walk to the main road and 7 minute multicab ride to giasano mall.

[@deanrotering879]

Are there a lot of foreigners there? I’m hoping you say no lol.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

No. Not many foriegners at all.

[@deanrotering879]

If I ever visit the PH that’s where I’m going. Scotty talked about the average temp there being nicer and not a lot of foreigners. It looks beautiful but the whole country pretty much does.

[@Anonymint-vj7bt]

Do you know if the New Bukidnon Sports and Cultural Complex oval track is open to the public for athletic training? Specifically sprint training on the rubberized track? I can not find that information any where on the Internet. I am not in the Philippines right now. I drove by it in April during the festivals.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Not a clue. I know it's open but don't know if the public can use it.

[@Anonymint-vj7bt]

@@expatlifestyle2000 I tried calling the provincial capitol and their phone system is in disarray, lol. I finally spoke to a barely literate person in their so called technology division who seemed to think it is not yet open to the public but will eventually be. Amazingly difficult to access online such basic information like this on certain details in the Philippines. I was in Dumaguete more than a decade ago when they were constructing the public stadium and oval rubber track. It is only in recent years from Google review photos that one can see there is a photo of the sign at that entrance which documents the policies for public use. I was happy to see it says strictly that those walking and jogging slowly must move to outer lanes to give way to those sprinting and doing genuine HIIT athletic training. Unfortunately my experience is that Filipinos never obey it and loiter in the inner lanes making the oval useless for sprint training. Imagine the very capital intensive resource being turned into a parking lot, same as for the right lane of their highways become parking lots. Some things I love about the Philippines, but other things are extremely frustrating. Which is why I moved to Mexico instead after living in the Philippines for ~27 years up until 2020. To escape the protoplasm congestion of East Asia. Their covid lockdowns (which are coming back with up to ten mandatory jabs annually starting next year, to be enforced with the mandatory national id initiative) was the last straw for me. Absolutely insane. My senior citizen Belgium friend who was trapped there said those over a certain age were not even allowed to go outside their homes for many months. He had to sneak out his back window and scamper down a rural mountain so he could stealthily go for a jog on the hidden trails. They had military or police stationed outside of the homes all over the country. Amazing the amount of resources they commandeered for enslaving people. Tells me something about the mentality and Asian authoritarian culture. Good luck with that. I certainly would be leaving before late 2025. Most vloggers do not present both the good and bad side of the Philippines. They try to make it seem like it is a paradise and the problems are not significant. Those of us who have lived there long enough, understand the reality.

@@expatlifestyle2000 I wrote a long reply but YT censored it.

[@expatlifestyle2000]

Do you plan on using the complex sometime soon?

[@Anonymint-vj7bt]

@@expatlifestyle2000 what I wrote in the reply that YT censored was along other *VERY* *IMPORTANT* things YT does not want you to know, is that the provincial capitol office seemed to indicate it is not yet open to the public, but will be eventually. No ETA provided. Yes I would like to do some athletic training on the rubber track, if the public will follow standard track etiquette and not loiter on the inside lanes. My experience though is they will walk on the inside lanes making the track unusable by serious athletes. Typical frustrations of the Philippines.
