Hi Story, My name is Savi Jane,I am 6 years old . I am watching your video from the USA.

[@InvestedAdventure]

Really gotta add Siargao to my travel list when I visit the Philippines for the third time. Went to Cebu last year and Manila this year-couldn't get enough! Documented my adventures on my channel, but missed out on General Luna.

[@ejlang6479]

another foreigner who visited ph to get more subscribers..lol not a basher but this is the trend that i have observed..

[@virginiagallego4805]

Yes ,because pilipino is realy supportive ,and to all the blogger thank you very much for promoting Philippines now lots of people visiting Philippines it’s realy good for the country .its mutual we support theme and they promote our country we don’t lost nothing .

[@rosylynsanchez4822]

True, it's a mutual benefit. I thought all these vlogs about the Philippines somehow helped in making our country known but I'm surprised (I'm currently resigning in Dubai), there's still a number of people who only knew of Thailand as the place to go.

[@awieferrer6172]

​@@ejlang6479subscriber ba habol nila? Punta na lang sa Vietnam at Thailand, millions ang international viewers dun... Mabuti nga bumisita pa sila dito para mapromote ang bansa! Hayyyss

[@lollettealipe9363]

How wonderful you’ll get to experience Cebu where my family and I live. I’m originally from Quezon City and my husband is from Cebu but since 1992, we transferred our family moved here. I love it here! I hope you’ll see its charm and the feel the hospitality of the Cebuano people.

[@iangang9535]

The girl is so mature, even her humour.

Try visit their open Safari in Cebu, I think Story will love it. There's wild Whale sharks in Sogod Bay in Leyte that come and goes freely without the feeding frenzy with the people..

[@herchickenlegs4]

How exciting for you all seeing your big brother in the Philippines. I can't wait for your new adventure, so enjoy

[@dollyincedente7441]

I love seeing the dogies strolling and enjoying the beach together..hello poppy..

[@RichidaNetwork]

Welcome to the Philippines Omar and wifey! Enjoy your Cebu adventures guys!

[@mariloumamenta5563]

Cebu is the Manila of the south so expect heavy traffic too sometimes. However their are a lot of things to see in Cebu. Its like being in the city and the islands at the same time. Have fun in Cebu and I pray your brother and his wife will enjoy their stay in the Philippines.

[@jessasoliano797]

The city, the islands, and the mountains as well. Plus the historical value of the city itself, as it is the birthplace of Philippine Christianity and the whole of Southeast Asia as well.

[@DanetyWorldofDani]

OMGGG you guys! You should do the Sardines run in Moalboal for Storyyyy, and Canyoneering in Kawasan😍

[@OzJetz]

Hi Jay. When in the area of Cebu, one tip. Go to Bantayan Island instead of those tourist traps in the south except for Badian-Alegria and Samboan which is worth it if you go DIY. Chop chop Cheers!

Cebu is full of history. Make sure to see the monument enclosing the cross planted by Ferdinand Magellan and Colon street, the oldest street in the country.

I’m loving these new perspectives as they come towards you.

[@nymphasabellon5018]

Wow,enjoy your Brother bonding soon.❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

[@pinoyvision]

You were in General Luna which is really cool. Lots of cool shops & restaurants let alone an abundance of night life and of course the tourist couldn’t resist. When I was there I felt a huge vibe and left all my worries behind must be that island living plus on a clear night you can see millions of stars above I love it. Siargao gets 10 thumbs up 👍 and it is a must see island for anyone who wishes to visit.

[@Cyberbob_073]

Nice.. Thats gonna be a great adventure...

[@richeljerman5469]

Very nice area in Siargao, nice shopping store and coffee shops 👌 😊

[@VirginiaSandiego-z2r]

Wow, seems like u guys enjoy so much cebu that u forget to upload videos! Waiting here.

They visited Baguio years ago before they were vegan. I want them to go and really appreciate the vegetables there now that they’re vegans

Hindi naman po malamig dito sa baguio summer na..

[@justasking506]

Sorry, but Baguio IS a tourist trap! Crowded, Noisy and it doesn't have a beach. Something that those living in cold countries want to see.

[@mendrelynones]

❤❤❤❤hope the weather is good, God bless your journey to cebu

My favorite 👪 in vlogging--8 Miles from Home... ❤❤❤

[@susanyoung6635]

U should be proud to stick to r values. ALOT of people r afraid of doing that. Great lesson for story.

[@8milesfromhome]

Yes if it doesn’t feel right then we have question why we are doing things ☺️

[@bisdaklifevlog2324]

Enjoy guys 👍😊

[@krs10na_a]

I share the same view with you regarding the whale sharks. I've seen videos where it's getting too crowded with all these boats carrying so many people, swimming with them. Story is more sensible than the rest of us.

[@daisyjane_1013]

The beach moon is spectacular!👌💛

[@edalvendiaable]

I am fascinated with Story. She's growing up to be an intelligent and a beautiful girl...

[@motodreddvlog7348]

give them the best experience they never had so they dont forget the beauty❤❤❤

[@tayko1k]

You can see whalesharks in Bicol too. Oslob very popular already where a lot of travelers go, the place is small so it is crowded and wait for your turn longer...

[@PerlaQuiroz-f4h]

Hello beautiful Story

[@mayronnette]

The wedding part is cuteee!

[@Tootsiesgreenridgeecopark]

Don’t forget to visit Cebu Top! Shout out from Michigan USA🇺🇸 I love Cebu & Butuan City

[@minke08]

I am so happy to hear that you have made absolutely the right decision about the whales sharks.

[@marilousumo226]

Enjoy your Cebu trip and explorations

[@erniecabaneros4690]

Donsol can also be your option to swim with Whalesharks. The migratory season there is between November and June

[@SuperLuckygirl100]

Story is so pretty ❤❤

[@asapatongsitioatongpalambu3239]

You can also visit Siquijor where you can naturally see the giant clams during low tide.

[@Lans888]

Lovely...

[@carlabellest5521]

OMG! Please include my hometown - Badian, on your list. :)

[@remesantos1174]

Enjoy Cebu guys!

[@elpidioreal9917]

Only the most virgin Pacific Ocean 🌊 water 💦 that enters the Philippines and exits to various Asian countries due to the rotation of the earth. Love the Philippine beaches!

[@teonilavorburger7736]

I was born and raised in Cebu and I have an affinity to this place more than anywhere else in the Philippines. While I‘m hoping that your whole family would thoroughly enjoy Cebu, I think you made the right decision NOT to go to Oslob for the whale sharks. I believe that the animals are not necessarily harmed by being regularly fed and by doing this means income for the people of Oslob, but I believe you are not the sort of family that will enjoy the experience. Even I, as a city dweller who was absolutely facinated to have met with these enormously captivating creatures up close, really have doubts if luring them near the shore by being fed is the right thing to do! Besides, you have options and other opportunities to see whale sharks somewhere else in the Philippines in their natural environment… There are many other things to enjoy in Cebu ( without the controversy!😉). Good luck and have fun in my beloved Cebu❣️👍🏽🤞🏽🍀🥰❤️❤️❤️

[@pinacolada111]

you need to go to baguio, if you havent already. 😘

[@edithapanalayan1528]

Wow story is so big very beautiful

[@avid580]

Thank you for not supporting the Oslob whale shark tour. I couldn't do it either after learning about their practices. The sardine experience is memorable. I'll try that next time I'm in the country.

[@amerpinay6082]

Moalboal is where you can snorkel with the sardines…in Cebu. Your family will enjoy it. I suggest to go to Bohol…it’s just a ferry away. They have nice beaches and sandbars. Have fun…!

[@nathaleenecalvo7808]

Have a happy trip to Cebu. Yes, I saw in other youtube channels, swimming with the whale shark is amazing but with so many tourists doing that, you kinda feel sad for the whale sharks. Its might be quite distressing for them to see so many people. They may be called the gentle giants but I hope they will not be affected with being a tourist attraction.

[@cocoaorange1]

Gentle or not, I wouldn't to get to close to a whale shark. I am OK with pictures.

[@bemcorrales5358]

Awesome family bonding ❤️ ♥️ 💖. Visit Baguio, Banaue, then Sagada, but travel during summer because there might be landslides when it rains. Keep safe 🙏 and God bless 🙌 🙏 your family ❤❤

When you already know what J is talking about without the flashbacks... Been a subscriber for so long

There so many things to do in cebu. You can do canyoneering in kawasan, diving in Malapascua or swim with the whale sharks in Oslob, cebu. I highly recommend all this places.
