My Experience in the Philippines after 2 Months 🇵🇭 HONEST TRUTH

[@asianpopmedia]

I've been watching your videos consistently for the past few weeks or so. What I like about them a lot is that you've been honest and your videos are spontaneous. I hope to see you back in the Philippines soon!

[@vedailynflores1441]

Thank you for your nice review about Philippines, i will still follow and support you wherever you are…take care and hope to see you in the future….

[@imwithstupid086]

I'm glad you had a great time. A lot of people don't. Hell, a good deal of people that live here, hate it here. I also appreciate your candor.

[@ElectroChards]

That place you ate Mang Inasal. The Makati Square is 40 yrs old building 3:43 in your video

[@djaeyphoenix]

Thank you for showing the world the hospitality of the Pinoys. Thank you for reading the comments. Next time, try other places outside Manila. Don't stay in BGC because it's too expensive. Safe travels and we hope to see you back in the Philippines. 😊😊😊❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@BurritoRoll]

Stumbled upon your videos recently, and i’m loving it, I do have to say that Filipinos do tend to be a bit nicer to foreigners than fellow Filipinos but that applies to a small group and for the most part, people are nice. I look forward to you coming back. And there’s a lot of hidden places to discover, as someone who stayed for years in makati and BGC. great vlogs, simple and genuine, I love it!

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Tagay and cheers 👍tanks for coming to the Philippines

[@Jaimesw]

So much transportation in Philippines. Not just jeepneys. But it helps my wife is Filipino, because as a foreigner i wouldn’t know where or what transportation to get to go places

[@ozpinaysupermom3218]

Oh Zane I thought you’re staying longer! Will definitely wait for you to come back. So many places to explore.

[@Ryan-he2qz]

[@maeannperillo7653]

I will pray for your health and safety wherever places/Countries you traveled. Thank you because you still coming back to Philippines.♥️♥️♥️

[@marysingh5699]

I have been watching you since your Zane intuitive and now Zane travel. Good luck to your new destination. Definitely you will be back to Philippines 🇵🇭 and see more beautiful places 💖

[@ermarios4281]

There are resto there that offer different kinds of veg. U can make salad at home just buy in stores and dressings if u want. Go in tbe gymn once in a while or jogging so u will not gain weight. Avoid soda it will make ur tummy big. I noticed u r fond of drinking it.

[@83nomad5]

He eats those "unhealthy" food and seems to enjoy them too. If you don't do any physical activity to burn those calories, the added pounds would be the result. I bet if he had taken any similar unhealthy food (of which there are many) in the U.S. or anywhere on the planet, he would have gain the same weight in HALF the time. If it isn't for the crazy hot weather and humidity in the Philippines, Zane would have easily double his gain weight.

[@ggnetprint1696]

great series. see you next time back!

[@texasmike1977]

I agreed to all what you said Zane and I’m happy that you appreciated the fun loving people of my country! I can’t wait to see more of your travel blogs.

[@josepedrenajr5850]

Thank you Zane for staying in the Philippines and enjoying your stay. I've watched almost all your videos they are all amazing. I hope you come back and explore more. I hope to see more of your videos in other places. Thank you also for appreciating what we have in the Philippines, as you see around, Philippines is developing much in few time, everything will be fine. By the way, Philippines was part of the USA before from 1898 to 1946 if am not mistaken as the history tells. Americans brought the educational system that we have now, and that's the reason why English is our medium of instructions in school from Elementary to College; although there are some variations of vernacular and Filipino languages but the official language for Government and offices functions is in English. I hope you are at home in the Philippines and you can make it your Second home. Again, welcome, and God bless your way to the next journey!

[@alanbuzeta1980]

I have been watching your vids and truly enjoying them I appreciate your honest review of the country. Funny thing with what you say is that it is ALL true especially the transportation issue! Well... I certainly hope you come back. It's a pleasure watching your vlogs seeing the Philippines from your set of eyes!

[@SweetHurt]

I’m a Filipino American residing in California and I thank you for your positive comment about the Filipino people .😊🙏Safe travel to your new destination and I’ll catch you here on KZbin till next time.😊✌️

THANK U FOR VISITING OUR COUNTRY. YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO YOUR 2ND HOME. MABUHAY AND STAY SAFE ❤

[@amaliahightower]

Yeah I totally agree with you 💯% on everything you’ve said about the 🇵🇭. Not big on eating meats. I grew up in 🇨🇦n 🇺🇸. I like my fresh salads, veggies n fruits. I missed lots of foods n things back in the 🇺🇸. However I got tired of the rat race that’s why I’m living in the 🇵🇭. Also my money goes a long ways living in the province. Zane thanks for coming here in the 🇵🇭. And yes you still have lots of beautiful islands to see when you come back next time. Enjoy your travels and take care.

[@mixjag]

Thanks for your honest opinion Zane about our country, the Philippines. Hope you enjoyed a lot during your stay here. Just stay safe on your next journey. God bless.

[@Mickeyyy0909]

I’m really glad you enjoyed the Philippines so much Zane. 🇵🇭😊

[@anabelle5059]

When you come back Zane, I do suggest you visit North Luzon (Baguio, Sagada, Ilocos) because you can easily travel there by bus from Manila. And, I will also suggest Batanes -where you can get a flight from Manila. These are provincial areas but all beautiful. Stay safe on your next journey❤

[@SM-ti7jg]

Thank you so much Zane for staying in our country for 2months.. you are always welcome to comeback again.. have a nice travel god bless!

You have to put the chicken oil in chicken or rice. And you dip it in soy sauce with calamansi.

Oh my god!!! You haven’t been to the palawan islands?!?! You’re definitely in for a pleasant exploration 🥰

[@John-vh3ig]

Very honest feedback!

[@MarkPuke13]

aweosme series!! hope ya return to philippines again

[@rhoelg]

You are right about the food being not so healthy for westeners especially if you don't go to the gym but for locals if you notice theres not many obese people there that means the food is mainly suitable for locals due to them sweating a lot due to humid weather whereas tourist stay in aircondituined room most of the time.

[@elainelim2569]

Philippines is a developing country, and moving here for good is not easy for a foreigner, you need to ADJUST, ADAPT, and ACCEPT our culture, food, people and weather ( 2 weather hot and very hot 😂) Philippine door is always open to those who wants to explore the country. Another thing Filipino really like to support foreign vloggers. Thank you so much for staying in my beloved country. Be safe and God bless ❤️

[@miguelbalisi9952]

I'd say again with the very hot weather, add to that the slow-paced transactions or dealings with offices or places that you may have not experienced yet, the can be-unbearable rooster noise and the dogs barking in the countryside, are just few of the many negatives that needs tons and non-stop patience from foreigners eyeing to stay in the country for at least a long period of time. This may sound discouraging but it would take away the possible frustration a foreigner may have in the end. I feel your honesty and straightforward review of the Philippines based on your experience. Being honest deserves support more than some vloggers who may have sugar-coated their findings of the Philippines, especially if you don't hear some negatives. But negatives said nicely not in a brutal sense.

[@rupertogonzales7870]

Wag na lang Silang papuntahin Dito, is that what you're trying to say?

[@miguelbalisi9952]

@Ruperto Gonzales no, it's to make them aware that the Philippines also have a lot of negatives "THAT MAY" surprise or frustrate them, but this one seems open-minded. It's a matter of KNOWING HOW to read between the lines, and BEING positive, Ruperto, obviously, you took my comment negatively. But this vlogger needs support because HE KNOWS HOW to read between the lines.

[@jennyzubiri9312]

Thailand is hotter than the Philippines but most foreigners have no trouble adjusting there. Things are just more efficient. Don’t blame it on the weather

[@elainelim2569]

Did I blame the weather??? I just stating the fact that Philippines weather is hot, also if you're coming from a cold weather, I'm just advising them to accept and adapt because it is what it is.. Philippine weather, food, culture and people doesn't adjust to them. I don't like foreigner coming here and start complaining and comparing Philippines to other countries.

[@cesaralladin7165]

Thank you for visiting our country,take care,hope to see you in your next visit.❤❤❤

[@jg-ty5yo]

Wish you luck Zane for your new adventure

[@EdwardSaturn]

Hi zane..many thanks to all those foreign vloggers specially to ypur youtube channel for promoting our tourists spots here in the philippines.

[@jaymendoza5761]

Goodluck with Your Journey ,hope we can see you soon back in ph,ty for your honest review,your always welcome in our country ,much love brother Take Care ,Maraming salamat po🙂

[@pam8162]

Mabuhay bro! A hhhuuugggeee salamat for the honest and positive and not so positive reviews regarding the Philippines

[@johnbalin8258]

Thanks for your honest review. I guess you haven't tried the more healthy food alternatives just like what moms prepare for their families. Consisting more of green vegetables, chicken, fish, etch. As for cheap and expensive it depends on where you are. I think you might have to explore more if you are planning to comeback. Like what they say "If you're in Rome do what the Romans do" In every country there are a lot more contrasting background and issues but good luck in your next trip.

[@laylacodilla4805]

Sorry for the bad experience sir and thank you for your patience and understanding..😊🤩Safe travel and again visit Philippines soon😂🌞🎉🎊🏖🏝

[@jportega9404]

If you are coming back in August, it would be the peak of monsoon season so expect it to be very wet by then. Healthy or even vegan food is not very common but I recommend Corner Tree Cafe vegan place there in Makati. BGC is the most expensive place in the entire Philippines definitely. Quezon City is cheaper if you want to stay in the Manila area and near lots of good vlog-worthy places. Trifate is there and has given them lots of content in their vlog

[@kurtfuchs4500]

Great video. Being an regular traveller here. You will become hooked and want to come back as much as you can

[@alejomikel1]

Looking forward to your comeback and make content for Fiba world Cup in August. See you soon mate 🤗

[@fernandoledesma7691]

I'm going to miss you, looking forward to your coming back here in the Philippines, Cutie!

[@ideasman88]

Hi Zane. Hope to see you again. We love your travel stories and posts. Until you shall return!

[@nildasabang-vo1ys]

We love foreigner here because they are the one who showed the beauty of the Philippines

[@LazarusEli]

You are always welcome to the Philippines Zane❤❤❤👍👌🙏🙏🙏🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭😃

[@Marie760]

Thanks for visiting. Have a nice flight to your next destination. You are right about the food being unhealthy Every year I go to Manila for a vacation and I easily gain 10 lbs in a month

[@daijinlotte6049]

i agree to that we have bad public transport and the food is not healthy,unless you are privileged.

[@makgalatv]

As a Filipino living in Europe i have the freedom to choose the kind of food i want to consume, may it be healthy or not it is up for me to decide. You said that most Filipino food is unhealthy, well maybe they are (you'll find them all over the world). And when you are body conscious you should take your hands off them and maybe pick the lighter ones. Americans love to eat burgers and fries and they're maybe unhealthy to some but who cares? Nobody forces anyone to eat them. We only live once and we must enjoy it to the fullest, regardless of what we eat.

[@raindy9850]

OMG!!! NO MEET UP??? That's okay, hope you enjoyed your short trip here Zane.

[@pauliejojo8241]

Have you tried some gastro journey like eating in Vikings Buffet to taste so me local and Int'l dishes as well?

[@solkalibri1376]

It's true. Food not so healthy. My sisters came home for just two weeks and I grew fat right away cause I was eating all the time. I think if you want healthy food you're just gonna have to prepare it for yourself. There's not really a lack of ingredients for healthy food as there are wet markets that you can go to and buy vegies and non pork meats. There was a couple vloggers here during the pandemic who had decided to stay in Siargao since it was too expensive at that time to get out of the country. They've maintained being lean and slim during their stay because they cooked for themselves. They went to the market themselves to do their groceries. They didn't rely on others to take care of them that's why they were eating healthy foods all the time.

[@susansamuntanperson8124]

Hi Zane, thank you for nice journey at Phils, stay safe ,i can't wait to ur next destination 😍😍😍

[@pharcyde8083]

Most people in the upper to middle class service industry are college graduates. Jobs are scarce there, so even those jobs are valued. Otherwise many college grads have to leave the country to be OFWs.

[@darrellcredo1991]

It's no wonder that most filipinos can speak english well, and foreigners are held in high esteem most of the time. When you come back in August, it'd be raining all the time. And yes BGC is a safe place where you can live. I think you can even walk there at night without worrying about thieves.

[@pebsstonesteel1424]

What is surprising is that Western people think that "marriage" is NOT for life 😅 In tourist spots, it is a given in any country, i think, that foreigners will meet a lot of hawkers... just smile and say "no". Local tourists experience the same thing. Thank you for visiting the Philippines.

[@davidmartin2706]

No. the surprising thing is trying to sell off your daughters, nieces, or yourself to a man that you don't even know just because he's white. And that commitment is for life, to a man you dont even know

[@meltoycorral]

that yellow one is not a sauce. it's chicken oil. you're supposed to mix it with rice. 😅 but it's ok, you should eat at mang inasal again when you return. their halo-halo is a must try. peace!

[@bashersbeware]

Do your research when you do comeback. It's gonna be a blast definitely with FIBA on August but the biggest hindrance would be the ticket prices. I'm sure every US game will be expensive as hell and Im sure you wouldn't want to be there for one game day only. Expect ticket scalping will be at its worst.

[@msbee-xj8ni]

Re: Food. Mate you ate most of the times in western restaurants of course you will gain weight. If you ate proper Filipino food you won't (in moderation of course) and I don't mean Jollibee, Chowking etc. I mean have you been to Manam? Locavore, Mesa, Romulo's Cafe also in Makati other good Filipino restaurants like there in your backyard Makati Cosmic Poblacion? (vegan) Have you had Sinigang (fish, shrimp etc) Bulalo, Tinola is one of the healthiest food you can have. Monggo? Ampalaya? Have you had Bicolano Dishes? Dig deeper and you will find good healthtly Filipino food! How is it that Western countries have high obesity rates and not as much in the PH? Thing is Filipinos always cook from scratch for their everyday meal so when they go out on the weekend or payday they choose other kinds of food like Korean, Japanese or Western food for a change. They do not eat western or fast food everyday. But thanks for your feedback! Enjoy the next country and PH in August! (just remember that will be the monsoon/rainy season)

[@maritesvlogs96]

If you will travel to Thailand u can pass through Laos going to Cambodia or Vietnam. You won't regret coming to Laos. I am an Igorota from Benguet working here in Laos. And hopefully i can show you some good coffee in Vientiane Laos.
