We Went to Maramag Market, Where to buy the Fruit & Veg

[@mikofi]

I can't believe that I went from watching your videos in order to learn about what will go wrong with my Mk5 Mondeo diesel, to getting to learn how to live a life as a farmer in the Philippines. Thank you Alan!

[@alancobbin]

I can certainly see why you moved fella,looks so lovely in the Philippines,the UK is dead and getting worse by the minute,thanks for the video guys 👍😉💪

[@ROUTEPLANNERPAUL]

Alan ,,, uouve just added years on to your life living there ,, fresh food straight out of the ground,, brilliant learning about your life now in the Philippines

[@flashbeaster]

this is quickly becoming my favorite daily relax content

[@ozziejoes]

What an amazing selection of produce in the markets! 👍😎

[@bert-bb3cm]

Philippines is the number one destination 2024. Leave your worries behind and just enjoy daily what the Filipino people can offer you and your future wife and family. The world is getting too busy. I hope that you will enjoy the hospitality and friendliness of the Philippine people. Life is too short. Live your life to the fullest. Thanks for sharing your tour around the market. The fishes looks so fresh and I wish it was like that here in the US😊😅🎉❤❤❤

[@alan4x]

thanks Bert, yes this country is just simply amazing and that includes the people, I want to stay here although in reality will have to go back to England at some point but hope somehow I can make it work here for the long term, have a smiley day😊

[@stevenfrance6648]

You look so relaxed Alan mate I’m jealous 🤗

[@philipwright7646]

Brilliant, just like being back home in a good old Blighty market maybe 50 to 60 years ago! Keep it up Alan, wonderful stuff!

[@MattyEngland]

I've been a greengrocer for best part of 30 years. Produce looks very nice quality. The green seaweed stuff is called samphire

[@dehv]

Nice for you guys to be considering the quality of life and welfare of these animals. Hope you make it a happy existence for them ✌️

[@stefanr.3495]

Glad to see you so happy and relaxed! Thank you for all your work on Mondeos, you saved me a lot of cash! I looks like you've made the right choice, will keep watching your videos! All the best!

[@stephencatterson9320]

Great 2 see everyone smiling and happy instead of over here everyone walking around with big sour faces

[@martianleaderrichy1520]

Maybe 3-4 yr old subscriber and loved the old work but loving your new direction you've taken, Best wishes for you all and hope everything works out great. That market looks awesome. Keep up the great work and love life to it's fullest, thankyou. Best regards, Richy, Northumberland. 😀🙌

[@Dave-Huston-Dublin]

Brilliant Alan, Really liking this change in direction you've taken.

[@Stop..carry-on]

Loving the new content Alan , very interesting. Cheers

[@charleshiort7153]

Good luck with everything !The best thing when I was in Maramag and this area is the exotic fruit's I spent more time in Baguio city on Luzon.Have a nice change away from the UK.

[@captured-by-kenny]

It all looks amazing, enjoy to the full from Ireland 🇮🇪👍

[@BARON1001]

glad you having a good time .... good luck

[@Finglesham]

That meal looked very nice. Made me feel hungry. Good to see life out there and I hope you enjoy life. It looks so casual compared to our structured life . Perhaps the Globalists' have missed the Philippines? Lucky for you.

[@alananderson6812]

What a way of life. Tyler was ready to 'tuck in' and so was that dog that came wandering in. 😆

[@paulbettison1577]

Enjoying the videos, you look really a happy man good luck to you

[@IndusRush]

Alan, have you and your family considered growing Avocados or Durian on the family land, looks like good place for it. Watch out for cobras!😊

[@futadore]

[@davidwike4522]

Hi , here in Cebu we pay 80 pesos a kilo for banana but strange back in Canada price is cheaper, the banana you boil or fry are cheaper and like you said have a nice taste. Take care, .

[@chasmcl42]

Loving these videos Alan super interesting 🙏🙏 those are not stubby bananas, they are called plantains.

[@johnchincotta1qwdb15]

No more fiddling with the spanners. Relax and enjoy your new life

[@Oztinnieadventures]

The produce in that market looks beautiful, the colours are so prominent, the stuff we get in the supermarket here in Australia looks like it's been sitting for months on end before getting to the store.

[@andypicken7848]

Thanks for posting

[@andyc9401]

I’m glad you are happy with the move. It takes a lot of guts to do something like that. Well done. Looks like your loving life there.

[@scottvstrom]

Watching you enjoying your new life is interesting and hope you keep doing youtube as it feels we are all with you on your new journey👍

[@jamesfin6039]

Love it mate .. keep them coming

[@theshyfarmer]

Hiya Alan I'm originally from England now living in a bamboo shack in DonCarlos. Living the dream!

[@eddiejones.redvees]

Great insight to your new life keep them coming love the drone shots we only buy super market own brands better value for money no same it makes the big brands rejoice the price if they want to survive the rice cake equivalent to nipping to Greggs for a sausage roll I guess

[@walkyrie38]

the short stucky bananas is how they should be, they will be full of vitamines etc. The chiquita bananas we get are rubbish and void of any nutritional content. You have proper fresh food there ripened on the trees and bushes. No wonder food tastes better over there :)

[@antonella6703]

Open up a fish & chip shop ! They'll love it !

[@paultaylor9652]

[@flyingalbatross9634]

i am very supportive of your endeavour to make a new life away from the rat race in the UK. I am sure you will make it. When I watch your videos i realise you have the best ingredient for a good life. Pleasant, friendly and down to earth people. Best of luck.

[@bartoszk4812]

I'm glad you returned to that Raptor towards the end haha, I clocked it at 19:41 and was wandering if it was a Raptor or a Ranger 😂 Lovely market there 👍 I remember taking my girlfriend to Poland and she couldn't believe they had a market there every day with fresh meat, fruit and veg every day! Lol

[@links7622]

Alan, that fish on display which you described as big is a yellowfin tuna

[@chrisgeorge2421]

Hope your dream works for you, you obviously love her and I really hope she feels the same way. It’s a good decision to keep your house in the uk just in case. We never know how things are going to work out, so live your life the best way you can, and I hope all works out. You have my sub. All the best and I would love to do what you have done.

[@yathongleung]

Looking at these food, you are going to live so much longer and healthier than us eating plastic wrapped poison here in the UK

[@jaysimpson6857]

150 pesos for 1kg of broccoli is the same as prices here in the U.K. People are literally working to eat out there.

[@phil6465]

Is Tyler going back to UK or is he staying too?

[@bv3bv334]

Will be following this with interest. My wife is from Mindanao. We chose to live in the UK, certainly until she gains citizenship. Brave move. Out of interest how long have you spent over there before committing to the move? Good luck 👍

[@The_Macaroon]

Really immersing yourself in the life - good for you mate - enjoying the videos - Baltic freezing here in the UK lol - how is the local beer?

[@BrianOloghlen]

Get stuck into the fish Alan and don’t let the smell of the durian put you off love it cold from fridge taste like custard I am from Ireland but live in Australia for 30 years

Your broccoli is extra weight with the stalks on

[@julianchambers8372]

How much is a Ranger Raptor out there Alan? Do they tax vehicles much?

Whats the healthcare system over there? What's the state pension like too? Is it a country you can comfortably retire without being a millionaire?

[@alangilbert2461]

Can you get a pork pie round there Al.

[@stefanr.3495]

The fish you're used to in UK from Tesco's is indeed very bad! Far from fresh! Be brave and try the local varieties! You'll be surprised! :} Cheers!

[@adriver4471]

filipinos are always getting sick and i reckon its from eating contaminated and non refrigerated foods Those fish and meat products are festering in that heat with lots of multiplying bacteria How many times have you heard in the Philippines “i got a fever” “i got a sick” it’s not rocket science 😊

[@oldmanronan8473]

Ive just randomly come across this. I live in England and I also have the same reservations about this country, everything is too expensive and the wages and opportunities dont match. That being said... This fella has met a woman online moved into her life with her and brought some financial backing to her run down farm. I get some serious warning bells here. But hey ho even when it falls apart in a couple of years he can at least say he had the experience.

NEVER mind the fruit & veg alan, find some tools for sale and go and join your mate who fitted your new brake pads, don`t deny it , you heard the sound of that airgun and the feelings came flooding back, your still in the honeymoon phase at the moment, in a few months time, you`ll be standing in the middle of the road near that mechanics holding a placard up to all passing traffic which says ............pull in dito para sa libreng kotse repairs!
