Thanks for watching, Mabuhay Squad! Please remember to LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE (hit the bell icon, too!) if you enjoyed this vlog so I can keep making more! So what do you think is inside the 'balikbayan box'?

[@daisyronquillo6391]

Mikey Bustos what balikbayan box? Have I missed something on this vlog? 🤔

[@ktconcepcion8303]

That bike ride's soooo uncomfortable just by the looks of it. Having to traverse that narrow cable while it wobbles must've been hellish. Bet it was hard to take in the view and concentrate at the same time. ;-)

[@jcvlogs8031]

Mikey Bustos where's your next stop? :) i hope i could meet you!

[@airenemackenzie3711]

Mikey Bustos until when ka po sa davao? Poponta po ako dyan sa 17....

As a davawenyo and Mindanaon thank you Mikey for promoting Davao,. it hurts to hear how our fellow Filipinos are ignorant on how beautiful the island of Mindanao is, what they only see and hear are all the negative side of Mindanao. Cleanest and clearest drinking water next only to New Zealand, abundant fruits and species of flowers, beautiful beaches, mountain ranges,tropical forests, secret falls, peaceful place with a very low crime against people and property, discipline people, cheap but fresh foods (the fruit basket of the Philippines), and the richest province of the Philippines in terms of gold, copper and nickel,take it from a family of miners. Filipinos don't know it why it is called " EDEN " which mean the Land of promise. If our government continues the federalism, we davawenyos will be very happy. Our city will prosper even more despite of terrorism and criticism,. Even with a very low tourism, Our city and province will survive and will continue to flourish.Thank you Mikey.

[@MrJRW1]

Some beautiful footage of an absolutely gorgeous group of islands! I would love to go to Davao!

[@WuthieWuth]

I can still feel ur pain on Malaya's passing.. 💔 Don't make it too hard for urself Mikey. Malaya's in a better place now and we saw how u loved and cared for her. ❤ We're just sad that we weren't able to see her soar.. But I'm sure Malaya had her best time with u. ❤☺❤

[@angieg.1954]

I love the drone shots, thank you Mikey for showing us the beauty of Davao! your travel vlogs are very inspiring!

[@michaellocklear6396]

Wow loving the water slide i need to go bad next time i go to Davao i did not know they had slides and such there. I talked to my wife last time i went we did go to Eden the wishing fountain is still beautiful i have pictures with my brother in law under the canape of flowers they where so beautiful when i went. They look like when you went maybe they where not in season or dead. We went to Samal Island also, there is a shrine in Davao also it is on top of a small mountain i think it was on top of where you went to the restaurants on the first Vlog you had in Davao a Catholic shrine the view is so beautiful from up there over looking the city. Enjoy brother!!!!

[@itzyow7681]

next time you go to davao go to maxima they have a giant slide which leads to open ocean

[@sidrikelsd]

For Many years I have only watching foreigners vlogging about our country Marami salamat Mikey Bustos sa pag vlog mo sa ating Bayan nakaka inspire po at muntik akong umiyak sa saya salamat ♥️ Isa Kang bayanu

[@msganda69]

MIkeyy!! Thank you for slowly being happy! I too miss Malaya! Now I want to go to Davao and visit that Awful resto..Oohh Samal Island looks beautiful. I want to go to Davao!! Thank you for bringing us there, Mikey! God bless you always.

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

MJ Altre-Camello You guys lift my spirits! Yes, you must visit Davao amd eat at that resto! Haha!

[@msganda69]

Mikey, you know how you made me kilig with this reply. Haha..Thank you for making an old lady smile. hahah

[@rayceeaprilperena6315]

is that Samal Island at 20:20? such beautiful sandbar - it's on my bucket list

[@SoMrBradBITTER]

You'll forever be missed by Mabuhay Squad, Malaya! Don't be too hard on yourself, Mikey. First step of moving on is forgiving yourself.. Set yourself free from the guilt. Malaya knows how much you love her! We all love our baby bird who is now in birdie heaven chirping a glorious cheer for us all. ❤🐦

[@bellamamitalacson8433]

You make me cry Mikey. Touched by your prayer for Malaya

[@sambofighting1258]

That's the spirit Mikey! just being fearless to do anything if you don't really mind any fear it really didn't matter.

[@ainaluna6640]

Hi, Mikey! I shared this video on my FB page and the owner of Eden Nature Park (a close family friend) liked it. Thank you for featuring our beloved Davao!

[@MeMommyEms]

Yay!! So happy!! Another vlog. Thanks, Mikey! Seeing Malaya made me cry.

[@quixxxilver]

As usual, Mikey's adventures and antics moved me to feel a variety of things: 1. Empathy - Very touched by the genuine grieving and reflection over Malaya. So true that the loss of a beloved companion (human or animal) weighs heavily on us and we can't help but think of them constantly. And we all wish to be healed of the grief and "fly again" as MIkey put it so well. 2. Awe and wonder -- That sandbar at Samal Island looked like another beach paradise, thanks to the beautiful videography! Kudos to whoever manned or programmed the drone! 3. Thrill -- The aerial bike segment had me feeling both an adrenaline rush and weak-kneed (and a little weak-bladdered)! Respect to Mikey for keeping his head through the fear, as well as for not pressuring RJ and Wella for turning back. 4. Curiosity -- Serious minds want to know: What is the true unicorn of the Philippines? Is it Lechon or is it Crispy Pata?

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

+Quicks?lver HAHA love this comment! Thanks for watching! And to answer your question, I think crispy pata is to lechon what unicorn is to unicorn with wings?!

[@rupinang7461]

Everytime you mention Malaya, my heart sinks.. I hope. Everything gets better.

[@jamailahernandez1366]

You and RJ really balance each other. Live free from fear.

[@SlyTheMiner]

What's Up Mabuhay Squad!

[@joelfernandez2333]

Awesome and thanks for sharing Mikey. I love your prayer and wishes for Malaya at that beautiful flowery wishing well. It gave me teary eyes rolling down my cheek. It reminded me of my pets too that became part of my life. The first few months were hard emotionally. It’s hard to let go and cause of the memories. Thanks for that Mikey. Thanks for visiting my home town Davao City.

[@msganda69]

Oh RJ I'm so proud of you for doing the slide!

[@starbeach2001]

Davao looks nice. We all missed Malaya. Malaya lived a good life under your care. I wish you will adopt another myna.

[@xojhenxo]

I really love the song "Watching you". Cant help but to comment when you used this song in your videos. ❤️

[@symplypeechie6496]

Couldn't go one vlog without tears. But the mad/scared look on RJ's face on that water slide dried them up. He looked like he could hurt you and I was hoping you would push him and both of you go sliding down. I think if I had my choice, I would rather go to Davao than Manila. Well have a great day!

[@Rubyruby50]

Whoa looove the scenery so relaxing❤ amazing Mikey👍 And oh RJ yaaas finally conquer his fears!! haha.. its worth the try RJ😁 lookin forward to your next blog ,,maybe tom.? the day after tom.? nah doesn't matter,we're always here anyway.🙌

[@itsmejecky]

Hi from NZ.. i almost cried to that prayer for Malaya... no matter what you lose, person or pet, you still feel that deep sadness.. i feel you Mikey..

[@HAcera-hs3hw]

Too hoo! Mikey keep that music pumpin’. Music is such a big part of setting the mood and theme of the vlog. If it keeps a smile on your face, it will be double on ours !!! Looks like fun! If Malaya was an expensive lesson, then let’s make all life’s lessons worth the cost and invest in each experience to its fullest. Enjoy the spectrum of emotions life sends... Mabuhay!

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

H. Acera Noted and thank you!

[@MiszKathleen16]

Wooooh!! Kuya RJ tried the long slide!! 👏👏 Good job! Conquering ur fear Kuya RJ

[@PaoloRigotti]

I should visit when I go back to the Philippines.

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

Paolo Rigotti Yes, Davao is a pretty cool place!

[@pazbcruz]

Such a touching vlog. Don't worry Mikey, your prayer has been heard.

[@jennyfdz4]

A lot of emotions felt on this vlog. Miss Malaya, but we'll always remember those great vlogs with her. Love the use of your music. Love that RJ is trying to keep up with the adventurous you. Keep well!

[@leipinay5888]

Funniest part was when you were on the bike. I missed that accent of yours and that heehee giggle. My first laugh today. Really enjoyed this vlog. Thank you Mikey!

[@unicornlover874]

I'm sure Malaya will understand mikey, always take it easy and think positive wherever you go, whatever you do. Best condolences for you my few best youtubers 👍🏻 to Malaya wherever she is now: Stay strong 💪🏻 the spirit of you will always be in our #mabuhaysquad's hearts ♥️

[@lulubaker8014]

MALAYA IS WATCHING OVER US MIKEY IAM STILL SAD TOO I MISS HER SHE WAS A PART OF OUR LIVES WE ALL WATCH HER GREW AND NOW SHE IN AN ANGEL NOW AND ITS ALRIGHT YOU STILL MISS HER AND STOP BLAMING YOURSELF FOR WHAT HAPPEN

[@mnalto1]

Wow!!! I salute you! You are so brave Mikey! So scary looking at the heights and the wobbly bicycle line..You did it!! Congrats!

[@Yoonmin3101]

When Mikey eats, everybody listens.

[@Nil_Sama]

ClaireBear BabyGirl of course... Perfection like this should never be ignored...

[@pedro19611969]

Hey MIkey you should really get back in the studio and record ( not necessarily parodies) that's a real quality track I have heard for the first time ( watching you) try recording here in London some really good producers and places to record .

[@joannbantillo]

I feel your sadness. That made me cry. Malaya will always be with you.

[@gwengallardo6118]

Nice song for the background, thanks for this nice experience. Thank you for wishing freedom for everybody, where ever Malaya is surely she would not be happy seeing you sad.

[@GreggySorianoGreggysDigest]

Um, obsessed with Watching You. It should've been the soundtrack to Laguna Beach, The Hills or some fun rom-com teen movie. Love! And RJ is soooo cute at the end. You got this RJ!

[@luthien_tinuviel3326]

RJ go down that slide! Make it happen!😆 Kaya Mo Yan!👊 So many different emotions on this latest blog of yours Mikey. I felt sad but hopeful and that's because of the legacy of a little bird from Quiapo. Malaya had become not just one of those obscure little birds that people see and pass by on the streets everyday. She was made special by your vlogs and by your caring hand. And that's something we can look back in gratitude.💜 Samal island and the yummy food though.🤤

[@joshaustin2812]

Ahhh teary eyes while watching..dhil ky malaya npasubcsribe ako noon.take care always Mikey and RJ..#mabuhaysquad

[@ivymaeros3988]

Because of you mikey i learned how to appreciate things as well. 😙

[@MiszKathleen16]

I cried when I heard your wish and your message for Malaya.. :'(

[@kayesy6343]

[@annieabrenilla3425]

Water slides are so fun!

[@OGFAM5]

It's great to see u and Rj go to these places in the Philippines. Gives me ideas on where to visit on my next journey home. Just a small hurdle of 15hr flight from NZ 😕😅. #mabuhaysquad #missingmalaya

[@edwinyaril5331]

Everytime you speak about Malaya, it gets straight into the feels...

[@ermieborazon8845]

wow! amazing! the beach is like palau it got sand in the middle and side by side water and how hilarious rj got scared of the slide hahaha but eventually he did it! i think he face his fears! mikey and rj u both lucky to explore the world!

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

Ermie Borazon yes, it was a sandbar! So cool!

[@yousefalde]

Another one for the bucket list. Thank you Mikey for showing us the beauty of Davao. 😀

[@w33viljing]

I got quite teary-eyed when you said your wish. And that heartfelt prayer for Malaya, (T_T). She will always be remembered. Oh my, that awful, awful food looks die-licious! I'm enjoying your Davao vlogs - the sights, the food and the fun activities you guys are doing there. RJ, if a child can do it and get down the slide safely, YOU CAN DO IT, TOO! This time, just go for it. Um, close your eyes, then GO FOR IT. LOL

[@shayne9883]

this makes your vlogs different from the rest: your inspiring and sensible messages....plus your sincere love for the Philippines and Filipinos!....

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

+meteor in the sky Thank you. I appreciate that and indeed! Pinoy pride!

[@savan968]

Love your original music score. Great episode, makes me want to visit Davao now.

[@hustisya2010]

Wow that food! Wow wow wow that sandbar is so beautiful!

[@youthinmejapan]

[@pandag2825]

Great to see another vlog! I like how you're using a drone to capture those amazing shots. Awesome idea! Good luck RJ! #NewVlogLife

[@rissahbabao1]

Indeed my city is beautiful!!! Life is here in Davao!!!! How I wish I have met both of you. Our house is a few blocks from the city hall. Also, I hope there will be a meet and greet here. 😀 So happy you and RJ enjoyed your stay. Anyway, Malaya is surely missed, but she had a good life. 😀

[@redcharlie123]

I miss u Malaya. Wish you didn't have to go so early. Would love to see you grow bigger.

[@idasmiksboit4383]

j recon why malaya died?maybe he was not able to drink water coz they drink alot of water I have same bird I always check everyday his water coz I know if they lack water they gonna die.

[@gigiperegrin4604]

Thanks again, Mikey, for sharing your adventures with us! Another great vlog! We’re proud of you, too, RJ for letting go! Mikey, hope your speedos stayed on when it was your turn! 😉

[@markemyshibukawa9254]

Good for you, RJ! Conquering your fears! AWESOME!!! 😳👍

[@gloriadilk8384]

Hi Mickey I’m a Filipino Canadian, you’re vlog is amazing and I only watched two episodes. I will be watching more. Now I’m inspired to see Davao.

[@triciam2161]

OMG Mikey!! You on that bike...you are making my heart POUND!! I can just imagine when you were saying "it's wobbley"!! OMG Noooo!!

[@vinisitahan7242]

yes I agree. Davao is really beautiful. greetings from a samariño.

[@idzp8143]

Roller coaster on this vlog: thrilled, cracked up (that mouthful of salad though), informed, fascinated, teary-eyed, amused (at the resto’s irreverent humor), amazed (luuv the drone shots and that track), mesmerized .... then RJ happens LOL -- that’s some kind of soup

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

+Ida Padre Haha thanks for watching the whole thing! Means a lot to me. As you may know, I like to add some variety in my soup.

[@WuthieWuth]

Wow Mikey! That was a perfect huge bite of your salad! 😍🍜❤😄👍

[@BushmanCanuck]

I hope you can finish grieving soon Mikey, don't let guilt drag you down. Live and grow my brother 💕

[@laiyaspa7340]

Thank you for the wishes and prayer mikey you made my day ❤️ take care always mikey and rj ❤️ God Bless you 💕

[@EytinTin]

Ang galing! Go RJ🙌

[@FoxySonia]

I love your spirit, Mikey, and like to see how adventurous you are. It's so amazing and interesting to see all the fun and exciting things you do. It's so funny to see what a chicken RJ can be, but glad that he did go down the water slide. The air bikes, zip lines and water slide look like so much fun.

[@kayesy6343]

Tnx for visiting Davao RJ and Mikey... awesome 😙😙😙

[@Corazanaoro]

were u safe on that bike on the rope. Wondering how they keep the bike secured while it moves on the rope. I'm really in love w Phillipines, entertainment is Superb.

[@Nil_Sama]

coraza naoro well, one as you can see the bike doesn't have rubber wheels so it won't slip and theres something, I think it's a cable or a rod at the back of the bike that attaches to a rope above the rider

[@Corazanaoro]

NadlieHime 1814 oh my, thx so much

[@Nil_Sama]

coraza naoro no problem glad I could answer your question 😊

[@MikeyBustosPinoyboy]

Yeah the bike actually hangs from a top wire but still the physics made me question why lots of people weren't falling off! Lol! So scary!

[@Corazanaoro]

Mikey Bustos Hello my Mikey, I believe if someone moves a lot while on it they can make it tilt. Yesss very scary. thx

[@cc3kidsl8ter78]

FOOD IN THE VLOG! YASSS!! YUMMY!!! That bike in the sky looked awesome but seemed too slow, I'd rather zip line, havent done either (yet)

[@sarahmarie1391]

lol...You did it Mikey! That bike ride looked fun to me. I would have done it with you. :D The island is amazingly beautiful. I would love to explore all the plant and animal life. So happy you are blessed enough to take these trips. I'm am so grateful to see all of the sites and experiences through your lens and to hear your comments about it all. Malaya is in your heart forever. Mikey, she loves you and is not holding anything against you. She would not want you to feel guilty. She was and is pure love and she's grateful for the life you gave her. She might not have experienced a happy life it it weren't for your love for her. She would have died in that awful cage, crammed full of other birds if it weren't for you rescuing her. Pure love, forgiveness and peace be yours eternally Mikey. Thank you for this vlog MIkey. I know you're terribly tired, but I'm so happy you are cutting back and taking time to rest, enjoy life and re-energize yourself. God Bless you...Mabuhay!

[@monkeyrainbow542]

Yay someone from Houston...thanks for this amazing place you share ❤️

That bike ride alone would scare me to death. Doing it with one hand... that's insane! haha Thanks for showing us Eden. I've been to Davao but wasn't able to go to Eden. Now it feels like I've been there as well.

[@minettravels9501]

Don't be sorry for being away. You still gave Malaya a wonderful life after you saved him from the market. I'm pretty sure Malaya is thankful.

[@jona457]

Hahaha that restaurant is awfully yummy. I love the names of the food... Thank you Mikey for sharing the beauty of Davao with us. MOst of us will never get a chance to visit it, but this video makes us feel like we were there.... Oh my gosh, RJ is so funny. I'm proud of him for sliding down.

Ohh that's my place my home town(Island Garden City of Samal) I really miss Malaya too, i thought when you're home from Palau I can see Malaya in your Vlog. So sad.. huhuhu. I'm really crying for the lost of Malaya. I do love Eden Resort also, very serene. I missed Davao City. From Edmonton, AB Canada

[@gsagabaen]

"Sinampalukang Sampalok", that's really sour!! 😅 Glad you and RJ are enjoying Davao. Please don't feel guilty of Malaya's death. You rescued her and gave her a good life as possible as you can. She may had a short life, but it was a wonderful one. Be assured of that. She's now in the Eternal Paradise. God bless you and RJ.

[@nedskiechannel3892]
