[@edmundleecastro6704]

Thank you Paul for the update. I'm very thankful that you and Mae are okay. Take care and God Bless you both.

[@andgainingspeed]

We go from yesterday's chat with Mark to today's post typhoon survey. Quite the contrast and a nice reminder how fast things can take a turn. Looking forward to the next video on how/when services are restored and a bigger survey. 👍Please continue to exercise caution over content.

[@richardkorejwo6398]

Thank you for the updates ,Glad you and May are safe and i hope for your friends too ,What a great channel .

[@MrSridharMurthy]

Thank you Paul for the Typhoon update! Now I got the drift as it is similar to the one we experienced last year ( Typhoon Rolly) in Bacacay, Albay ( Bicol Region).. We were left without power for 92 days! Most of the electric poles and transformers were down! I made sure I had a lot of batteries for my flashlights and candles to keep our rooms lit up. We didn't have a generator at home but fortunately, our neighbor had one and he kept it running all day so he could help the community folks charge their phones and emergency lights for a small fee I think it was around P10 per phone. I used my spare phone to play FM Music all day which really was a blessing or else it was really depressing to be without power!

[@williamhoelzel9277]

Good to see you both faired well

[@leemckinney4974]

@Paul. A man after my own heart, being safe. So glad that you and Baby Mae are safe. Things can be replaced. God bless.

[@jimriggs9621]

Hi Paul and Mae.. Looks like your house is well constructed to survive the typhoon 🌀🌀 You and Mae would be great reporters for the Phillipines Weather Channel.. Stay safe..

[@tedburnard841]

Glad you guys are OK and no possessions lost. Waiting to hear info from my wife’s village in Libagon, Southern Leyte where she grew up. No communications at this stage, so hoping all her rellies and friends there are OK in Nahaong. Fingers crossed for them

[@agoodlife2]

Very happy you safe and secure

[@danielehling2367]

happy to see you and bay mae are alright i will keep all of you in my prayers it looks like a war zone if you decide to collect any money to help the people around you i will be glad to donate be careful and stay safe MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL

[@kevingamblesonlife9999]

Still waiting for word on my wife's family in Sibonga, Cebu, Glad you and Baby Mae are ok.

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

I hope so too

[@westcoastronnieOC714]

Well good day or good evening to you sir! To you and to everybody on KZbin who is reading this I just came across your channel last night about the Philippines and I really enjoy this channel. I'm 55 years old and some point in time I want to leave out of Southern California here and live my days in another country. I always thought about the Philippines and a couple other places but since I came across your channel I can get a better insight on what the country is like and living and prices etc. So I really enjoy your channel I subscribed and I'm looking forward to many of your videos. I'm also going to catch up on some older videos that you've put out but I really enjoy once again this channel. I hope you're very happy there and to you and your lovely wife have a great day or great evening.

[@davidlongley534]

So glad you guys made it unscathed sad to see the beautiful gardens. Still waiting to hear from friends in leyte. God bless stay safe guys

[@markthompson4055]

Very Happy you both are safe. God bless the Philippines

[@craigjacob3704]

[@kenvandeburgt1232]

I was wondering. and am glad you did okay. Cat 5. Wow.

[@StanHasselback]

Glad you both are safe. Careful of mudslides a lot of rain and fewer trees they can happen at anytime.

[@timothyoliver2657]

I'm happy Paul that you and baby mae are safe and ok🙂

[@lowtech67]

Thank you for letting us know you are OK. I'd been thinking about you two up in the mountains. Glad you came out of it so well!

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

Our pleasure!

[@johnkeogh42]

Glad you and Baby Mae came thru this ok.

[@thaimaxcan]

Good you and Mae had a safe house to stay. It gave us a good idea of how people start working together to help clearing debris.

[@alanjohnson8578]

Glad you two are ok and safe Paul God bless stay safe

[@jamesclarke9100]

Hell Paul, stay away from electricity when it’s down, people don’t understand just how dangerous down lines are. I was up with my wife she’s in Iloilo during the storm and safe, glad you are all ok. According to the storm maps your area got hit worse. With the kind of storm that went through, we need to appreciate our friends and loved ones are safe the materialistic things can be replaced.

[@michaellukehart4276]

GLAD YOU ALL ARE SAFE... THANKS FOR THE UPDATE

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

Much appreciated

[@garycounsell4119]

Love your character 'Old Dog'.So easy going like most of us in Australia.🙂

[@nuckyinthephilippines143]

Glad you two are OK

[@ernstwondering899]

Good to see that you and Baby Mae are fine - what a pissa of a storm! Wonder what happens to all those downed trees ? It's not like you'll have a dry spell anytime soon where the bark/leaves can dry out! One of the differences of living in a tropical regional I suppose. Thank you for sharing! EW :)

[@ragjamrock]

They will make firewood with the trees.All the bamboo will be used also.

[@doneown503]

Can you run the AC from a wood fire??

[@donbuesen3558]

Cool update.

[@josephinehunte1250]

Good to hear u faired very well, comfort & peace to those who didn't.

[@drewnc6196]

Glad to hear and see you are both safe. Thank God! I have not heard from my GF in Bacolod in three days. I pray they are safe in the province they live in. That was one hell of a storm, I a surprised you can post!

[@michaellukehart4276]

My daughter in law is Stranded ... I will text you the situation.... Thanks Paul

[@HitsInSandbox]

Hey, Paul that is the time you have to be more careful storms like that bring out the snakes.

[@gkschick6804]

Have to marvel at the resilience of the people there. Curious how you were able to upload the video without power, or, I assume, internet? So glad you survived without further incident or inconvenience.

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

Coffee shop upload

[@Karshel]

Glad you two came out of it fine!

[@ronr6347]

Wow stay safe

[@mikkie505050]

Be nice to help them clear up 🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@jasonhutt9117]

You have the perfect personality for the Philippines Paul at the end of your road I saw a sign some thing Falls what are they a good swimming hole?

[@tnoel374]

Fun times.

[@lincolndotson3613]

Glad you are both ok

[@julesforsyth2996]

Glad all is ok, lived through a few major storms here but never in the province. I actually miss the comradery of province people. Take care and have fun checking out the damage.

[@mikejarvis6138]

Was just watching a video showing the damage in Cebu, my heart goes out to the people of the Philippines, devastating !

[@markhiggins6628]

Been through 6 super typhoons and the days or months after the storm can be a pain in the arse; no power and no water. Get a hotel room with good ac for a few days if it takes a while for power to go back o

[@stephenday3417]

Glad to see you are both ok. Stay safe and stay well my friends.

[@marcrichard7251]

Glad you are safe. My girlfriend is in Dumaguete and she’s ok. She stayed at a 🏨 hotel.

[@keith5934]

Glad you survived and hope every one else . Maybe you should video yourself how you helped with the clean up .Your next door neighbors looked like there did a amazing job removing trees from your property .Sometimes help is better than a Video

[@reycolon9295]

Hey Paulie I'm so glad you guys survived how about Riza mom and dad and the kids I hope everyone is fine God bless you guys🙏🤗

hello good morning Rey Colon thank you,my family and riza is fine in now no Wi-Fi and electric still brown out only her coffee shop

[@davidcraddock7011]

7:44 chain saw doubling as insect fogger

[@angelperez3892]

Thank God you both are ok! Stay safe. 🙏❤️

[@flinx649]

I am so reminded of hurricane Frederick that hit Mobile, Alabama in 1979... quadruple that damage and then you got an idea.... no electricity for a month... most people back then didn't even dream of a generator or chainsaws... at least where i was raised.... nice to hear your voice Paul.

[@qhew]

great coverage Paul, so clear & stable, zoom seemed fine. Some experience - night-time major cyclone in mountains of Phillipines! Wished you could have taken the sounds of the wind & crashing bamboo at its peak. what a sight to wake up to. Mae seems quite nonplussed by it all. nice how everyone incl strangers stopped to help with the clearing. were you well informed about it’s path & intensity? I was able to follow its path on my IPAD weather radar app, 3 hrs ahead of you. Wonder how Cebu city fared - seemed to pass right over there. the “suicidal” dogs were out in force haha. but those dangerous wires - so hard to see. wonder how many riders came off! everything so slippery & wet. glad your safe & house unaffected, even if without power for a while.

[@DarrellGrainger]

I saw The Filipina Pea in Leyte. She is there building a new home for her parents. It looks like Leyte got hit a little worse. Saw aerial pictures of Bohol (probably from a drone). The flooding there was quite severe. Talk to a friend down the road from you in Sto. Roserio Heights and she says no internet or electricity but generally good shape. Family lives in the country; they have a lot of flooding. Animals and farm land swept away. So country folk are suffering. Friends in Manila area aren't affected at all. So it looks like the typhoon didn't hit anything north of Cebu. What are the big red pods on the tree in your backyard?

[@jameslonergan5840]

Just got an email back form Bud Brown. He has no electric or internet. He found a place that had both electric and internet in town. Have not heard anything from Rod and Maribel yet. Nothing heard from anyone in Bohol. Hope all the other expats are ok in Dumaguete.

[@foreignerreportinginthephi4902]

Thanks to God that everyone is Ok there 🙏

[@ralphmossor3160]

We have hurricanes quite often here in Florida and it always amazes me how much damage is done on the one hand and how many places are spared on the other hand!!! Glad you're ok.

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

Oh wow!

[@louisbecke2348]

Ive been through many typhoons in my 18 years here in the Philippines. Trust me they will have it cleaned up in no time. We had strong storm surges from Odette and warnings from NDRRMC. We live on the beach in Subic Bay so there was some concern. Still raining here.

[@craigjacob3704]

Yes Paul I read where it might be 2 weeks before Cebu city gets water service back, if they can restore enough power to run the pumps

[@cliffpearce5772]

Glad to see that you guys are okay, the best thing about all this is that you and baby may have each other and that's what makes going anything through like that possible, on the Carolina country boy x bull riding cowboy and I was raised the woman owns the house she wrote The roost she does whatever she needs to do and baby May is doing just that and the best part is well, the cute thing is the traditional passing of the wallet LOL you're good man

[@jayneh2006]

OMG!!! Mr.Paul, take care!!! Anyway you should be thankful coz its not as worse to what happened here in Kentucky! All vanished away!!! Atleasr there is just mild

[@royjones8012]

Stay safe, conserve food, water, supplies, & gasoline. You might run into shortages.

[@Phil-wu3qj]

Hope all is well. We haven’t heard from our family in the province.

[@ianlewis2813]

Hi Paul, How close are you to the centre of the typhoon? I hope everyone was ok ..

[@edwinandhelenbyers3552]

Be safe

[@frankheger5185]

👍👍🍻

[@RonKris]

Maybe you and Mae can do a trip to Cassaroro falls one day. It is a really nice place. A bit of a walk to get there but man is it cool. The water is very cold too! On our visit there it was a dirt/gravel/rock road and my wife had to get off the motorcycle because the bike was just slipping. We make it.

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

That would be cool!

[@jayneh2006]

Atleast your house still standing good sir

[@charlesberlanga4452]

They ain’t waitin on FEMA to come bail them out.

[@rickylee6129]

I will make sure I bring my chain saw.

[@bokchoylochoy3857]

What a mess, glad nobody was hurt...

[@sub-station1307]

may i know were exactly that place is

[@msdlover3634]

How is the condition of houses there are they destroyed completely

[@whatyourlifestyle998]

Lots of burning to happen when it dries up

[@23FABILA]

Relieved to hear that you both are okay and that there were few casualties as a result of Rai. All the trees and bamboo grass will grow back in no time, just hope the people hit hardest get some assistance with rebuilding.❤️

[@mikkie505050]

Have you actually seen all the DEATHS it has caused 100s&100s

[@josephurso9098]

Cat 4?? That looks like a wicked storm hit.

[@DogWalkerBill]

Has Baby Mae been able to contact her family?

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

yes they are ok

[@annetayag2837]

Even the nature looks kind of dirty in the Philippines.

[@gibblespascack1418]

Any word from Mark and Jen? A Typhoon of this size could have had a 15 foot storm surge. that would put the ocean in their living room. Hopefully it weakened by the time it hit their place.

[@paulinthephilippinesolddog9234]

They are OK

[@craigjacob3704]

Now is the time to break out the drone if you have one👍

[@Andy_Pandy2000]

You got off very lightly

[@poolfool31021]

Are the neighbors responsible for removing the fallen trees from your yard like in the states?

[@carydbman]

I wonder if a tree landed on your neighbors blasted karaoke machine? Glad you survived.

[@michaeljlove6952]

You're lucky, we had an F4 tornado that stayed on the ground for 200+ miles from TN through KY, 70+ dead, 7 days into it, several cities and towns wiped out, pray 🙏 for those affected, much Love Michael 1000s homeless, my son-in-law has worked 7 days straight 16 hrs a day, trying to get power to those affected!

[@LR-je7nn]

Biden is sending vaccines to help you out. For some reason whoever is telling Biden what to do is really pushing these ineffective and dangerous shots.

[@craigjacob3704]

I don't care what anybody says Paul. Those Filipinos are tough and you can't keep them down. God bless them.

[@thomasgordon1792]

Glad you guys are ok!! Haven't heard anything from our families in Argao/Cebu or Samar Hoping everyone is OK!

[@davidfrese4975]

same for me with family in Carcar, Cebu, which is near Argao. Not able to contact anyone yet.

[@thomasgordon1792]

@@davidfrese4975 globe is completely down I'm told, smart at around 20% power went out Thursday morning there, might take a day or two? CarCar Ace hardware My favorite place lol Hopefully everyone ok the rest can be replaced 🙏

[@craigjacob3704]

Glad to see you are all ok Paul. My families house in Cebu city received quite a bit of damage but everyone is alive and safe🤗

[@CanadaPhilippinesAdventures]

Good to know you guys are ok - devastating in other areas!

[@genejordan9983]

Glad you guys are okay. I gotta tell ya, you got off lucky. I’ve seen a dozen videos. From Cebu to Surigao, not a tree standing. Cebu IT area hit hard. Roofs gone, new restaurants blown away. Be safe. Watch out for those lines. Some moron with the electric company might decide to power one up. Tell May to pull the leaves off that cacao tree, it will produce more pods. 😂 be safe

[@NeilBaker722]

You've got a cacao tree in your yard. Have you ever harvested it? Made chocolate? That would be another interesting episode. Glad you made it through unscathed. Still awaiting word from Tim K. Based on where they were, news could be very bad.

[@keirenhood5373]

How about helping your neighbours they help you ?

[@carolduncan2170]

Hi Paul. Thanks for posting. Cindy and I were worried about you and Mae and some other folks that we follow who live on Bohol. Its great that you both are doing well.

[@Delta922]

You need to drop that camera, grab a rake and get to work bruh 😆

[@Chu6um]

Happy to hear you fared pretty well. So long as nobody gets hurt, everything else can be repaired. Take care of yourselves. EDIT: I'm thinking having a solar generator might be handy when I finally get over there. Stay safe!
