Welcome to our channel!
🌍 We're the Clarksons: Adam and Linds, and our three young explorers, Lily (8), Cora (6), and Harper (4). Hailing from Indianapolis, Indiana, we've turned our passion for travel into a family adventure, journeying across continents and cultures with our kids in tow.
Since May 2022, we've been full-time travelers, sharing our experiences from over 19 countries. Our story is one of embracing the unknown and learning along the way - homeschooling, worldschooling, and constantly discovering. We've swapped a stationary life for an ever-changing backdrop, from the bustling streets of Japan (our favorite!) to the scenic routes of America in an RV.
Every video is a snippet of our life on the road, packed with the thrills and challenges of family travel. Join us as we navigate the globe, with laughter, learning, and the occasional misadventure. Our journey is more than just a travelogue; it's a chronicle of growth, family bonds, and the magic of exploring together.
🌟 Subscribe and come along as we continue to chase new horizons and create unforgettable memories! 🌟

Philippines is the best adventures for kids specially the Beaches and waterfalls..100% you guys will come back and be stranded in Philippines until you decide to stay here as your second home..just like what others did.they were trapped of Philippines beauty and hospitality.

[@CarolineMiranda-td1th]

Sorry about being scammed. I guess in every basket full of tomatoes you can't avoid some rotten pieces. But there are more than beautiful over the few rotten pieces. Keep safe in your travels and be healthy so you will enjoy your staycation . God bless your family.

[@amaliahightower]

3 weeks is way too short!

[@jackspratt6930]

Good you stood your ground with that additional tip. It shouldnt have even been 2.5k. Use grab taxi next time. Hope you still enjoy your stay.

[@adamandlinds]

Yeah airport transfers can be hit or miss. Thanks for the grab tip!

[@PROLIFIC_TRAVELS]

Hey bro I'm an American living here in the Philippines and if you want to come to my city and I show you guys around let me know ​@@adamandlinds

[@NewFoundLands]

I enjoy seeing people in these super empty flights and I keep imagining that one day that will be me. It NEVER is hahaha. Our flights are always full. Enjoy the Phillipines! We haven't been yet, might be our next vacation!

[@adamandlinds]

Haha we rarely ever get flights like this either! They were also very strict on people moving seats too. We barely got them to allow Linds and the older girls to move to the row behind me.

[@user-ew6ie2ip4d]

​​@@adamandlinds I recommend Palawan, and canyouneering in cebu,and the whale shark swiming together in Oslob .

[@benedictosaguid9421]

Welcome in the Philippine and.....mabuhay God bless.

[@adamandlinds]

😊

[@Castleromeo14]

make sure to go around BGC especially during dusk! Explore High Street, 5th Street (during the weekends), Forbes Town, Uptown Parade and a lot more! SO many stuff to do that's family oriented! Y'all could also visit Makati, Ayala Triangle, Rockwell and Aseana City (Mall of Asia, Okada Manila)

[@DeafMan1983]

Is Okada an egg building?

[@Castleromeo14]

no! i think you're referring to the City of Dreams Manila! It's closeby Okada as well@@DeafMan1983

[@RJL2017]

You all fun to watch..Excited to watch your upcoming Philippines videos.

[@Joeysgonerogue]

Great video as usual! Going to be a fun series! Cheers!

[@adamandlinds]

Thanks! It was fun for sure!

[@zzzzzsleeping]

Ok ... relax No more language barrier for you. Oh by the way, you need to pay tribute to the Manila American cemetery. If you are in BGC Manila, it's just a walking distance. I swear, the soldier's cemetery is better than ARLINGTON. SO BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO SEE.

[@delfinadoalban853]

Experience funs in the Phils, you will appreciate it.

Welcome to the Philippines

[@fkoff7649]

Not sure if this is pre recorded a long time ago or a recent one, but for Manila, you may want to check out the National Musuem of the PH, the beautiful and historical Manila-American cemtery in BGC Taguig since I think that would be of significance to you since you guys ere Americans, Intramuros, Manila Bay, etc. For Cebu, pyou may want to check out I.T. Park where call centers are located, Ayala in Cebu Business Park, SM Seaside /SM city, OceanPark, Temple of Leah, Taoist temple, Magellans' Cross, Santo Nino/Cathedral Church, Osmena Peak and some beach resort hotels in Mactan, Bantayan Island, Sardine swimming, whale shark swimming, Sumilon sandbar, etc. Bohol, Siquijor, and Siargao, Camiguin, Banaue Rice Terraces should be n your future visits, too. Take care. Enjoy!

[@adamandlinds]

It’s from September but we are already planning another visit. Thanks for the tips!

Oh man! The moment I saw you took a taxi, I knew you're gonna get scammed. If you're going to roam around Manila (and Cebu), it's a lot better to book a Grab so you wouldn't have to overpay. Welcome to the Philippines and mabuhay!
