PHILIPPINES IS BEAUTIFUL - Seaweed Festival In Tawi Tawi (Becoming Filipino)

THE PHILIPPINES IS BEAUTIFUL! AND THERE IS NO BETTER VIBE THEN VISITING A PLACE WHEN THEY ARE CELEBRATING A FESTIVAL!
In this video, I head back to Tawi Tawi for a quick trip to pick of some of the local "tipo" (banig) mats that I had made in Mapun. It happened to be the Provincial Festival in Tawi Tawi, so a delegation from Mapun was there. Known as Kamahardikaan, there are lots of activities, events, and performances that happen during the month of September. I was really fortunate to be able to witness two! The Budjang talent show, and the Agal Agal street dancing festival. Yes, agal agal refers to "seaweed" and they had a street dancing festival. It was really beautiful! The vibes were so positive, colorful, and I had such an awesome experience!
This is just another raw Becoming Filipino video in southern Mindanao...
The Philippines is beautiful!

I saw this festival (actually, its 3 festivals in one! Lepa boats then seaweed then maligays!) last year and it is absolutely one of my favourites! Tawi-Tawi is awesome!

[@yella_c2]

Other travellers & vloggers : " I would never step foot on Tawi-Tawi. Its too dangerous!" Kulas : TAWI-TAWI ? LET'S GO! 🇵🇭💜♥️💙

[@RodKrisBisdakMotovlog]

That's the wrong ideas from other vloggers or media news. Me if someday if I would have great opportunity I will try to go out there and explore more in Mindanao

[@christopherturco197]

The costumes of the pageant contestants were fabulous. You've shown a lot of incredible costumes in other vlogs of yours before, but I think those were the most amazing costumes yet. I have to admit, I liked the alimango costume the best. It was kind of whimsical to me. Beware the white lady, Kulas! 😂🤣

[@milanice5730]

Wow! They do gorgeous hand embroidery and woven banigs 🩷👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@lollettealipe9363]

The costumes and choreography those in the parade were awesome! Thank you for taking us along to see the beauty of Tawi-tawi and of the people.

[@DidiE-e8j]

Tawi Tawi festivals are very colourful... Simply beautiful. Thank you Kulas for this vlog.

[@LilyGWard]

Love it when we’re able to see the beauty of Tawi Tawi through your vlogging and I look forward to see more in the future. One of the most colourful festivals I have ever seen and it’s so amazing! Nice way to end the video with some videoke singing. 😊

[@BecomingFilipino]

Power on 😊🇵🇭❤️

[@annmarie6001]

Thank you Kyle for bringing & showig Tawi Tawi in far out Mindanao in the Philippines

[@kimagangobrit4480]

This has to be the most important description of the real people of the Philippines. Not the negative propaganda of people who have never even been. YES! There are small troubles but the majority of the people's outlook can be seen in these happy smiles. ❤ Kyle, when someone with a lovely voice is singing, don't join in please.😂😂😂

[@BecomingFilipino]

Sing pa more 😅

​@@BecomingFilipino what impresses me about you is your knowledge of the language and dialects Kyle, I've been here in kimagango, Midsayap nearly 6 years and find it impossible to, put a sentence together 😅, think it's the age of my brain 😅. Keep up the good work 👏

[@gg_Javier]

@kimagangobrit4480 >> 💯% agree with you about Kulas' singing -- (cringe, smh) 😳 but it's one more proof that no one is perfect! ... Kyle may be Filipino now, but like me, he was not gifted with the Voice that Pinoys are known for globally!! lol 🤪

That's really cool and great sharing of Tawi-Tawi festival out Kulas. Galing Ganda ng content bro. Amping kanunay bro para Walay lumping 😊

[@vidapdl6854]

Interesting contents Kyle! Thanks for showing Tawi Tawi festival..very colorful and full of activities. Watching from 🇨🇦!

[@BecomingFilipino]

was a wonderful experience

[@dyaenerys]

I was there!!! Finally, step my foot off Tawi-Tawi. Contrary to our preceived notion, never was there a time I felt unsafe there! I even joined locals and drink with them. I guess, it is Tawi-Tawi's silver lining- that you have to personally see it and feel the experience. Definitely coming back, btw, my birthday falls on these activities- Kamahardikaan and Agar-Agar Festival as well as the Lepa Boat Festival. A must see!

[@sidlee7205]

That was cool to watch our Filipino brothers and sisters from Tawi Tawi. Thank you for showing us the other parts of the Philippines Kulas.
