Wife Takes Me Back 🇵🇭 (I Do Some Explaining)

I reflect on my return to the Philippines and share some thoughts on the anniversary of the devastating Typhoon Odette. Will Chrissy and Dale be happy I come home?

[@baldandbankrupt]

Glad you made it home safely mate 👍 See you in the Philippines in the future.

[@jayneh2006]

Life here in the usa is not easy!! Its also so difficult to survive if you dont help yourself. Nice to see dale spaeking!!!!!! Such a sweet boy!!!!!

[@Imawhiteboard]

Tim your living the dream, how lucky are you beautiful family. Beautiful home, beautiful lifestyle, I'm a huge fan. I'm catching up I'm seeing you been through a difficult time. ( as I have missed some of your posts) but you preserved. You made it and everyone is ok that's the beautiful thing. God bless you and your beautiful family.

[@TimKyoutube]

Thanks Julie. Its not all sunshine and rainbows. Each of us has our own struggles. Thanks for the kind comment.

[@Imawhiteboard]

@@TimKyoutube of course life has its peaks and valleys and we see the best parts. ( natrually) I support you and your family in good and hard times. Have a merry merry chritmas happy new years. Isn't it so much different with a child around? Lol it's like being a kid all over again.

[@priyankajilwani]

Maybe you guys can consider slowly clearing out all of the rocks, branches, and debris from your beach front so it looks less crowded, more open, easier to walk through, you can play in, could set up a volleyball net, and etc.

[@TimKyoutube]

the resorts next to us do it, but it is a BIG upkeep. Like 1-2 people a day for several hours :)

Hey Tim, it's always feels good to be back at home.

[@AFSHomestead]

Merry Christmas to you, Tim, family, friends, subscribers and everyone else.

[@jeremynachbar3205]

Just getting into your videos now, from catching you with backpacker Ben and Bald. You’ve got a good vibe going on the channel. Good to see another infantryman, enjoying the Philippines. Also, I’m happy to see you watch the more truthful news… 😉. Keep pumping out the videos! I’m happy to keep watching. My wife and I have been planning a motorbike trip through Vietnam, but Covid put a stop to it. Maybe this year we can do it. Ever think about you and Chrissy walking the Camino de Santiago? That would give a lot of material… I try to do one a year (helps with mental health). It’s a very inexpensive, and fun vacation.

[@hibosamatar3224]

Of course they want you back! I can tell Chrissy was waiting for you. That kind of waiting when you your loved one is on the way and you keep looking out for them. Happy Holidays to you and to your family.

[@24017460]

Glad to see you back safe and sound. The vids you made was awesome.

[@brianm9269]

Tim you've come long way. You have a wonderful family, wife who most guys can only wish for!....and Dale beautiful little boy! Who wears me out just watching your vlog! I have to take a nap after watching your vlog! Ha ha! Your blessed my friend! Best regards! Brian

[@TimKyoutube]

Thanks Brian. Life is about evolving and growing. Luckily here we get a lot of help with dale.

Love it, Tim! Happy to see a wonderful, joyful reunification! Count your blessings.

[@patrick707100]

Very happy I found your channel because of your visit to Vietnam with Bald and Bankrupt. Will certainly be a regular viewer to your channel. I am very interested in the Philippines and look forward to finding out more about it as well as your decision to settle there. Blessings and a Very Happy/Merry Christmas and New Year. As I saw your other Vlogs. Where are your from in the US, your service in the US Army, going to the Philippines, how you met your wife *if married), how you ear moneyed such. You certainly are talented and an excellent Volger. Again Blessings, A Very Happy, Merry Christman and of course, A Very Happy New Year.

Welcome home Tim , You know when I was a kid our neighbor sometimes told me ....... Hey son , Let me show ya something I learned in Nam. 🤠

[@TimKyoutube]

that sounds kinda scary, but i bet its true!

[@ndyajeff]

It's one thing to tell your story, and another thing to highlight tragedy for a profit. You clearly have only told. your story while we saw others clearly try to profit off the tragic situations that arise in the Philippines. You have demonstrated an excellent moral compass for years.. Put those disparaging comments in the brown round file and stay the course. Totally appreciate your story telling and courage to be so open. Merry Christmas Jeff

[@TimKyoutube]

Thanks Jeff. Really appreciate it. Merry Christmas. Best of luck out there.

[@jaymortensen642]

Tim I have to say thanks to you I started watching your channel when Odette happened just to find out how things were because I had no way to talk to my fiancé she lost power for 5 months in Malitbog and since then there has been some great videos, topping it off has to be the Vietnam trip. Looks like I will be back there in Jan.or early Feb. thanks to Congressman Neal of Mass. who has straightened out our immigration issue so looks like another visit to the embassy after over 3 years of the visa process.

[@TimKyoutube]

Thanks for sharing Jay and best of luck to you and your family.

You are amazing Tim. You did great. I had a bad time in Mid-January 2020. I got sick in Malaysia and returned home, was bedridden for a month. Pre-Covid times (At-least in Malaysia) but not sure if I got it when I was there. Love your videos. Keep making more.

[@TimKyoutube]

Watching this on Father's day, so, congrats!

[@Marisolita_95]

Hi Tim! Glad you got back home safely. I watched all the Vietnam videos and they were really fun and nicely spiced up with some history. I've got a question for you: do you have poisonous snakes in Southern Leyte, and if so, where do they live? In forests or fields? And do they ever enter people's yards? You have an absolutely adorable family & home and it seems that Dale is getting cuter and cuter day by day 💜 All the best to you and your lovely family 💕 Greetings from Las Palmas, Gran Canaria (yeah, I also live on an island where the climate is really pleasant all year round, never too hot or cold). Cariňosamente, Marisol 👋

[@TimKyoutube]

Thanks Marisol, for the awesome support and question. I dont know much about snakes here. I havent seen them myself, but they vary I think island to island. Also one side of an island can have a very different ecology as well. Thanks for asking! :)

[@Marisolita_95]

@@TimKyoutube Denada, amigo! And thanks for the answer. Please, say hi to Dale from me ❤️ Take care & Merry Christmas 🎅🎄🎁

[@tonyp2601]

Snakes are all over the Philippines. They live in forests and fields. But they rarely invade people’s homes. On rare occasions, they do. I’ve been to Las Palmas. Beautiful place. But expensive as it is an island.

[@Marisolita_95]

@@tonyp2601 Yes, I know there are snakes in the Philippines, I was mainly interested in what is the situation with them in Southern Leyte. Las Palmas is actually not as expensive as you may think. If you hang out just in tourist areas like Canteras, you will definitely pay extra for everything, but those of us who live here know certain shops and market halls where it's more affordable, plus the fact that taxation in the Canary Islands is much lower than in the main land, Spain. I'm not originally from here, I was born in Maracaibo, South America Thou I'm only half a Latina girl as my mother is European, from Finland to be precise.

[@jjmack8233]

I was in Tacloban just after Yalonda hit. Took a bus to Burauen, for as far as you could see every coconut tree was broken off about half way up. US military was there putting up utilities poles and power lines for electricity. Tacloban was probably worst place hit. I’ve never seen storm damage at such a wide scale and I’m sure most of it was because they don’t follow much of a building code over there.

[@Oxident7]

Thanks Tim. I spent 2 yrs in south-east Asia in the 90’s and your blogs are spot on. You show understanding and respect to different ways of going thru life + your immediate family is gorgeous. May God continue to bless you and your loved ones.

Big Fan of your PI vids for 2 years, Bro! That said, Recent vids getting kind of Sappy, Soap Opera- like. Seems to be a trend with many other vlogers too, creating crisis out of nothing. With all the negative real reality, tension, turmoil and distress in the world, it's more joyful watching your faithful dog fetching coconuts in crystal clear surf! Train him to catch Mermaids In Disdress! (Oops, i meant Distress)

[@hg2.]

Hello Tim & Family, A year later, I can 'feel' the shock of the typhoon. It was all over KZbin. As an armchair-American, the wheels start turning about "how to make things better". Bless the work that you and Chrissy et al did in that time. Here, we pay lip service to "go bags" for emergencies but go-bag disasters are few and far between compared to the Philippines. (Gee --- all those palm trees. That should be a roaring red flag that says "typhoons happen often here!".) 2 months without power... I don't even want to think. I'm setting myself up for making an "I'm a Mr. Fix It American" fool of myself, but I suppose there's worse things expats can do in their retirement. (The biggest/easiest thing I saw was how much good a whole lot of bow saws could do in clearing the roads as quickly as possible.) Merry Christmas -- Tim, Chrissy, and Dale!
