Adventure In Dumaguete & Bais City Philippines 🇵🇭

[@drewnc6196]

Great video Michael! Enjoyed it! You really are coming into your own and the content is really cool. Much better than before.

[@humminbird6990]

Long travel indeed. Another great video Michael.

[@cassiepellazar1607]

I like the Canadian perspective. Your great on covering so much.

[@jaime3452]

I'm enjoying the content. Thank you

[@bornonjuly7052]

Wow you left Iloilo Mike for about 4 days with around almost 8.50k subscribers and when you return it is now more than 14k subscribers CONGRATS!!!

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Very grateful!

[@bobbq9290]

Great job Mike nice video.

[@brianbaxter3913]

Nice job on the videos in Dumaguete. I travelled a lot by bus when I got here and it was not so bad I just made sure if they stopped for their break I didn't go too far and get left behind lol. The bar where you saw the Harley is were I hang out with a couple of friends 2 or 3 times a week. When I first moved to Dumaguete and lived in a hotel for 2 weeks I was there almost every day after walking on the boulevard and often ate at Casa Blanca. I like it here as it is not too big and not too small. It is actually smaller than Kitchener were I lived before moving here. Hope you enjoyed your stay here

[@elementalview1]

As a homesick Filipino Canadian, I have watched a ton of videos on Dumaguete and a few on Bais (where I'm from) and I have to say you have the best videos out there: informative and treating people as equals (typical Canadian trait). I especially like your dry wit that pops in and out ("swimming with sardines", "foreigners like to go south" in reference to living south of Dumaguete). I love your videos (and this is only my 2nd video of yours)!

[@paulz6491]

I’m really enjoying your videos!! 😊

[@JTCal1000]

Privet Mr. Philippines Life! You are slowly becoming the greatest explorer of Philippines. Can't wait to see you visit the exotic lands...

[@hanksandoval3466]

Im glad you are showing more Energy than the old fogeys, who just interview each other, other people and anything they can from just sitting down and getting a paycheck. You are Working it! Good Luck, and maybe slow down a little bit. You have 6999 islands To Go ! 😊

[@tryscience]

Excellent video 😎 a bit different in that it shows the logistics of getting from one place to the other. It was interesting to see !

[@juliuspalamos7863]

Nice adventure, good to see you visiting in negros island, mabinay is a good place not so hot

[@mohamedalkaboom]

Nice to see how clean and tidy Bianca kept the house while you were away. Yes a real keeper for sure

[@claylifto2356]

Holy cow. Great video.

[@heartbrainfusion]

What a day of adventure mike! I really enjoyed it.

[@definingmoments42]

Very good video.

[@CavalrySecurity]

Love seeing the changes around Dumaguete since I left a tad over 3 years ago. I bicycled to Bais a few times, but normally went to Tanjay when I went that direction.

[@carletto_au]

Thank you for sharing your journey ☺

[@hanksandoval3466]

I love your Candor, "im not gonna walk all the way over there" 😆. I can't blame you, though, only 3 hours of sleep!

[@daphne7414]

We will miss you here in Iloilo but thank you for featuring Ph.

[@robertb4382]

Great vid. Interesting comments from those guys at the coffee shop.

[@MALNTV]

I do enjoy your videos

[@locker1325]

Very good conversation with the expats. You relate to people very well. BTW. Pick up a better travel backpack. So strange having your ex still there.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

We have a no exit lease with a lawyer, we have found a way to make it all work. I do need a backpack I can carry more

[@steve-ml4du]

Hey i have been enjoying your videos, great job. I am heading to IloIlo in a couple of weeks,maybe run into you.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Sounds good!

[@Will67267]

It’s so hot and humid in Dumaguete. My BP just went to the roof! Be careful with the heat and humidity. A lot of expats I know had a heat stroke on that kind of weather. Stay cool!

[@johnmiranda4587]

I can't believe your channel grew so quickly! It's amazing! Congrats. Still waiting for your travel to northern Luzon and how about the planned Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar visit? Maybe you can transition your channel into more of a tourism vlog focusing on the Philippines.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

I can't wait to head up there I just need at least 2 weeks straight to properly have enough time to see a reasonable amount

[@shingetsu10]

Highly recommend Baguio if you do! And Batanes 👍

[@philippinesinfulleffect]

We do the exact same thing with our S&R pizza. The air fryer effect is amazing!

[@gorioecho9789]

That wasn't Moalboal you were point across to, it was the Talisay area in southern Cebu, Moalboal is on the same side but about two hours north of there. Not to get picky lol. Cool vids, lots of memories.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Oh thank you! Now I know for next time

[@Voltis-5]

Is there another Talisay besides the one that's by Cebu City? I was thinking that area is more around Ginatilan area and Moalboal further up North.

[@JohnMichaelCañares]

I don't think that's Talisay. Talisay is way up north. I think that's the most southern tip of Cebu island, Santander area. You will notice that the length is shorter that's because you are looking at the tip of the island.

[@gorioecho9789]

there’s another Talisay in the south Bato area on the northwest end of Santander (Canlumacad) - between Pada and Edan were probably the beach areas he was referring to

[@JohnMichaelCañares]

@@gorioecho9789 Oh I see, I didn't know that. Upon checking, there is a Talisay down south. Now I know.

[@kevinwelsh7490]

I uses to cringe over the way Mike acted around Bianca. He is much better when he takes all the spot light for himself in these solo videos and not stepping on toes. It appears Mike has even displayed some humility. Well done.

[@sealanderadventures]

Michael, Another awesome video! You can reduce your upload time if you record and 5.3K or 4K @24 fps or if need be 30 fps, to reduce upload times. There is no reason to record at a higher frame rate unless you are recording action or you want slow mo clips. The Gopro will do better with less shutting down from overheating at 4K or 5.3K at 24 fps. If your just walking around shooting, your typical content, this is the my preferred settings 5.3K @24fps. BTW...I'll be there soon and will try to contact you. Take care my brother!

[@needPeace6]

Mike,now I watched your blogs binging,that girl your with so immature but this vlog and mind you I followed lots of bloggers but I'll put you one of top 5...continue blogging non stop..like when you walk around,I felt like you're Pinoy already,do honest and real...

[@robertp.7090]

I guessed 1500 to get home, nice video!

[@nwced]

In a week I will be traveling to Dumaguete, CA you suggest a nice hotel on the boardwalk ?

[@chrisgutierrez-pv9ug]

Good idea Mike, I have always said I want for wheels under me at all times on the road too dangerous 👍

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Certainly safer!

[@aaa-p1w3r]

San Carlos ( Negros Occ) to Toledo (Cebu ) vv roro has beds even it only takes 2 hours of travelling

[@alanhughes1262]

Plenty of expats in that area cloud be a good place for me to buy a condo was looking on boracay but not many for sale i could rent it out but prices will rise up.

[@annav.4988]

Oh my if you were lucky, a Ceres Bus goes from Bacolod to Iloilo with that Roro sometimes. They only charge P60 from Dumangas to Ceres Terminal in Tagbak. Wow, you could've saved more than double than that taxi. It's not even that far? Wtf, taxis are overcharging when outside city premises

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Had no idea they had a cares bus going the whole way! Next time for sure

[@Smalltummywonderful]

Hello there

[@mguillen1979]

I looked it up In the United States and Canada, the Hells Angels are incorporated as the Hells Angels Motorcycle Corporation. Common nicknames for the club are the "H.A.", "Red & White", "HAMC", and "81". With a membership of over 6,000, and 467 chapters in 59 countries, the HAMC is the largest "outlaw" motorcycle club in the world.

[@ryno6101]

Impressive to hear from a guy that’s been all over, Africa, Australia, New Zeland , China, America and he picks the Philippines

[@arceortiz3298]

Mike when are you going to do the Patron membership?

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Just really crazy busy in my life now but I do need to soon

[@Sanee-n1l]

The sidewalks are bad though Michael, I wish Dumaguete local government will improve them. People in the Philippines love to walk.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

That is true need more sidewalks, also surprised by how many businesses has handicapped ramps from the road into the front door, many many do.

[@Once800-]

Why waste money on sidewalks when it can be used for something else? Everyone just gotta continue to walk on the road.

[@fcaputo2012]

I think most of the Vloggers are at the boardwalk cleaning up the area that morning you were looking around. Another Vlogger set it up and many go and help clean up.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Yes I heard unfortunately we were heading to Bais City around the same time. Luckily they do it fairly regularly so I can catch it next time

[@humminbird6990]

Hahaha. That is a good one.

[@kevingonzalez3673]

So funny that you cannot have a Hell's Angel patch in Canada. In the US, motorcycle clubs buy houses in run down neighbors and turn them into club houses. No wonder he left Canada.

[@philvorce1412]

Do they have any country music there ?

[@nomadcurator]

Great videos, but it would be very helpful if you could quote in American dollars, I’m Canadian but everyone understands american dollars or euros especially for your Expat audience. That’s never been there. This would be helpful.

[@MikesAdventurez]

there is a Blvd Boyz MC Philippines hells angels chapter which is crazy to me.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

To be honest any bikers I have met have been great guys who have a moral code

[@MoralHazard-g1e]

Nice tee shirt. Do you have one of their e-scooters? I believe they have a dealer in Iloilo.

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

A friend owns the dealership in Iloilo and he gave me these and they are so good at drying out instantly that I love wearing them :) the scooters are epic too

[@MoralHazard-g1e]

@@ThatPhilippinesLife Gear up and ride! Time to do a vlog on using one as a solution to your transportation needs. No one else has done anything similar.

[@armandosune3839]

Being trapped vetween the nountain and the ocean is nice on the first time but gets boringly boring as get along , uce experienced that nany times ib rhat area, also in Antique on the way to Caticlan from Iloilo; and also in Mindanao on the way to Butuan from Cagayan de Oro.

[@davemarshall5776]

you should have talked to the bike owner !!

[@richrebugio1789]

I wonder how Pat bought land in Siquijor? Doesn’t sound like he’s married to a pinay

[@fishonaquabid]

at 9:42 in the video. There are just girls looking for guys (and a girl is looking into the camera over your shoulder smiling) NOT the type of girl you were talking about, but it is a funny unscripted situation.

[@FrankandFelameWaggoner]

Mike I would give you a ride ANYTIME for free...Dumangas or anywhere...Sorry that happened I'm well versed in everything ferry to Bacolod. Picking up my new 1000 cc atv with power steering today ... hit me up bro

That's a powerhouse!

Lot of Expats there, I hear bad things but As Asians group in country’s why not here, It’s weird here how expats become Jealous of each other, Why, Hove no Idea, I’m only White boy for 50 miles in Province, But this is not tourist place either, God Bless

[@hygieagaloos6934]

Be careful in there or anywhere some can grab things hope everything will be ok and your content gets better and better

Definitely, if I put my bag down I keep on foot on it, or lime on the bus I find someone I have chatted with who I've built trust to watch my bag

[@kentohlund4966]

I really enjoy your videos, but when you are factual wrong I most tell you. Around 13.45 you point on Cebu and say something about Moalboal. Did you mean that you point on Moalboal? You did point in direction of my property, and it’s in Santander the most south municipal in Cebu and around 75km south from Moalboal, which is in middle of Cebu on the west coast. You are always welcome to visit.

[@Sanee-n1l]

I have been to Moalboal and I promise to go back there if there is a way to go there for a max of one hour, 4 hours drive from Cebu city to Moalboal is just a torture...LOL..

[@ThatPhilippinesLife]

Yea I asked a couple people if that was Moalboal and they confirmed it was, clearly as you are not the only one to mention that it was incorrect. Now I know

[@FREEINPHILIPPINES]

Where's your woman anymore ??

[@michphil2006]

Michael,how long you've been in the Philippines?I thought you already learn to haggle.1,300 pesos from Dumangas to Iloilo City?Way too much!Cab drivers will take advantage of you if you will allow them wherever you are in the Philippines.If you know the language,it will be less likely that they will take advantage of you.Start talking to them in Ilonggo and you will see the difference.Whatever amount the cab drivers or trike drivers tell you,don't agree with it right away.Haggle!Tell them,hey this is only what I got and you will see,they will just go for it.Pointers to haggle from an Ilongga.😆😆😆
