Thanks Chris for your unique style videos I really appreciate you introducing us to Mary Rose. Your recent partner never introduced us to any of his acquaintances. You keep it real!!

[@CarefreeChris]

I love folks who are in tune with what’s going on. Thanks David and hope all is great for you there in Florida

[@mattclark7718]

Thanks for all the videos and answers to my questions. Just trying to get as much intel ass pssible before leaving the US. Youre an intersting person chris. I wish you many good adventures.

[@CarefreeChris]

No problem and thanks Mat. Wish you an incredible time here too:)

[@raceman1966]

Great stuff Chris....looks amazing!!! I'm heading out it 7 days. For any of you that are coming to the PI and still have some questions, I would recommend to do a " 45 minute video call" with Chris. Well worth it!!

[@CarefreeChris]

Thanks brother. See you soon

[@koufax174]

Keep up the awesome work Chris! You’re amazing 🙏🏼

[@CarefreeChris]

Thank you! Will do!

[@heww3960]

My gf lives in baybay. Nice place. More beautiful than the big cities for sure.

[@CarefreeChris]

It really is!

[@jimscholz2997]

You are close to where my GF lives. You passed about 1/4 mile of her house just south of Albuera. I will be landing in Cebu on Sep 3rd. Stayed at the Fans 3 month ago. Its unique. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@CarefreeChris]

Oh wow! I’m a big fan of Baybay. I could easily live there

[@mattclark7718]

Forgot to ask. How did you meet mary-rose? I must have missed that video. She seems like a wonderful companion.

[@CarefreeChris]

We met on Tinder:). It’s a hookup app in the city but in the provinces it’s useful

[@heww3960]

Just a friendly advice, dont be naive. There are lots of scammers, and scammers comes in different forms. They can be cute and play innocent, they can play it for the short or long haul etc. Dont be naive. Many guys are very naive when it comes to girls.

[@pmac007.clevelandoh9]

Living the dream brother..

[@CarefreeChris]

My best years for sure

[@mattclark7718]

I always love your attitude chris. Learning to just enjoy basic things in life is a real gift. Can you run some internet tests as you travel? Im looking for a beach with good,reliable internet.

[@CarefreeChris]

That you so much Matt. I appreciate it brother. As far as internet you can get 50-200 mbps service most anywhere. Hotels can very

[@RealGaryGibson]

Looks like a beautiful boardwalk there. Keep up the good life Chris!

[@CarefreeChris]

Thanks, you too Gary:)

[@jsully4064]

Am curious if Mary Rose is proficient in the different dialects of Leyte? Am guessing that she does know the Kana dialect, wary wary and was just reading that Baybay has its own dialect as well (supposedly). As well as Cebuano? Thanks for the video, Will try and watch the live tonight. Thank you, Mary Rose and Chris...Jim

[@CarefreeChris]

Hey Jim. Chatting with Mary Rose now and she'll answer:)

[@Madameaying]

Hi Jim, not really proficient in different dialects but I understand some dialects and speak a little too it is because some of my friends and classmates are from Samar or Tacloban where they speak waray-waray and translate it in Tagalog. I'm more proficient in Bisaya and Tagalog than waray-waray and other dialects but understand and can speak a little with that dialects somehow. And yeah I just knew it after you said that Baybay has it's own dialects too because when we got there they speak bisaya. And here in Leyte we're not really a Bisaya because some of our languages are Spanish as you noticed. The pure Bisaya Or Cebuano is the Cebu.

[@Synfulz]

I use Agoda, and I have always had a good experience.

[@CarefreeChris]

Yeah exactly

[@1100_Rebels]

This is a one of a kind of baywalk. I have seen some of them, but this one looks really special. How did you manage to eat rice with your hand? Easy or not so easy? Hanging rice is compact. So it should be not too difficult. But give it a try with normal, loose rice. First time, when I did this, I gave my Filipino friends a good reason for a big laugh

[@CarefreeChris]

Yeah man. I’m not super skilled with the glove but I’m trying to:)

[@dave-d-grunt]

I lived there 1977-1981. Last visit in 2019. My house is gone now. There is a pizzeria there now

[@CarefreeChris]

Love it. Hope you’re able to make it back soon

[@ryanw0345]

Mary Rose has best personality !

[@CarefreeChris]

She’s really incredible

[@tryscience]

Cool, man 😎

[@CarefreeChris]

:)

[@kenmcleod8618]

So adorable 😊

[@CarefreeChris]

She truly is

[@homebasebelgium359]

I spent two weeks in Baybay in January 2017, when I was still with my Baybayon girlfriend. Meanwhile the boardwalk has been completely renovated. It wasn't that nice when I was there. We stayed at a motel on the premises of VSU (Visayan State University), which you should really take a look at (the university grounds I mean, not the motel which was simple but offered everything we needed). I usually stay in Ormoc but I definitely like Baybay. Also check out Albuera!

[@CarefreeChris]

Yes! Thanks for the suggestions too. I rode by the university and agree it's worth a vist

[@kyleesteban467]

I never need a five star hotel. I'd rather stay at a three star or less. As long as they serve free buffet breakfast. All I need is a bed, shower, toilet, with no view. To me, it's the free buffet breakfast that matters. It's about being practical, not luxury.

[@CarefreeChris]

I stay in a range really. If you watch more of my videos you’ll see I’m more toward the cheaper options myself. Mostly because it’s what you find in these more remote areas.

[@kyleesteban467]

​​@@CarefreeChrisHi Chris, yes I do watch Your show more so now than before. Before, when Your topic was more about how or where to find a date in the Philippines, I tuned out. Only to those shows. Keep up with Your phenomenal work. And I enjoy watching You road trips.

[@KevinVenturePhilippines]

Bro what was that a 3:23 ?? It looks like the great pyramid of Giza on the left! That's mind blowing! Was it just a shadow on the mountain somehow?

[@CarefreeChris]

I know right. Someone else made a comment on that too. Looks odd but it's the canopy to the boardwalk I'm on.

[@jmfarrell5]

Enjoy Leyte…. And Southern Leyte too.. 👍🏻

[@CarefreeChris]

The best!

[@jcgolf159]

Ya. Someone recommended the 45 min 'video call w/Chris'. I booked one of them 45 min vid calls and I have to tell ya, Amy Clara was fantastic! Didn't know you hired staff. Background music was a lil cheesy but it was like I was lying on a bed looking up at myself in a mirror while Amy Clara spoke some Visayan to me, know what I mean?? Um. I also might have entered the wrong number for the 'chat' but ya know..when in Visayan there just one kinda lyin'😏😂✌🏻 (jokes peeps just jokes:)

[@CarefreeChris]

lol dude you bust me up, always. Hope you're good there in the great white north.

[@novak4594]

Cool bro

[@CarefreeChris]

Yes!:)

[@roygoad2870]

Ummm just seen Gio and Myra’s vlogs in Tokyo Japan, they are staying in a Tokyo hotel for $50 a night, yes the room is very small, but it’s Japan and not the Philippines at $57 a night, yes it’s a great room, but boy 😅 there in Japan!

[@CarefreeChris]

Nice. I can’t wait to explore more of SE Asia

[@jcgolf159]

Minnie Mousing at the end 😄 Damn. Now I'm craving pork chops and apple shauce

[@felixpena4138]

3:24 I thought the roof of the gazebo was a Pyramid in the distance with the mountains. 😂

[@CarefreeChris]

lol right. Saw that too

[@leeroy4188]

What happened to Jho?

[@CarefreeChris]

I think she's still around. We stopped hanging out last year.

[@johnsarkis5468]

Just got there, and you're already saying BayBay.😂

[@CarefreeChris]

lol I know right:)

[@AceBachelorTom]

Sorry what was she wearing that plastic glove for during dinner? Because of the BBQ Sauce?

[@CarefreeChris]

Some places don’t offer utensils but a glove instead

[@CarefreeChris]

I call it the Michael Jackson meal:) Typically one glove

[@tryscience]

@@CarefreeChris All diners are required to moonwalk 30 seconds!

[@Synfulz]

I use Agoda, and I have always had a good experience.

[@CarefreeChris]

I’m a fan too:)
