🇵🇭 🚀 🇺🇸 Why Everyone Is Moving To The Philippines! (As an American)

Don't Be Shy! Watch till the very end to find out why!

[@daviddarden1915]

Having lived in Japan, Korea 🇰🇷, Kuwait 🇰🇼, Saudi Arabia, Marshall Islands 🇲🇭 🏝 and my favorite the Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤️. I was stationed at the old Clark Air Base (Angeles), Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤️ back in 1991 at age 28. It was to me good then. I know now it is great. I am currently age 61,widower and all my children are grown now. My plan next year 2025, is to return and retire there. Eventually, I will utilize the American Military 🪖 Philippines 🇵🇭 sponsored SRRV program. Having a study income is the best for retirement in the Philippines 🇵🇭. I do not know everyone going to the Philippines to live. I just know I served my country America in the Philippines 🇵🇭. Now, time for my reward. Thank you for this video. GOD SPEED PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭.

[@johnmascardo7047]

Well deserved sir. Thank you for your service

[@Johnny-ql2vd]

Was in the P.I. last year for 6 weeks…… basically a reconnaissance trip. Clark AB brought back many great memories along with Angels. Will be relocating back within the next 6 months on a permanent basis. Peace/Cheers

[@user-xy8ol7sj8v]

God Speed.

[@glendacastillo6504]

Thank you for your service. 1990-1991? That's when the 🌋 erupted. I was a sophomore in Clark AB. My dad served in USAF during that time. I am a proud USAF brat, now a USAF retiree myself. I am going to PH next week for 3 months to see if I can survive the heat before committing to live there.

[@MarcelaBulaay-vn4qt]

❤ Go around the Philippines

[@lucyfernandez1559]

I’m glad to hear you calling BGC as a “Paradise”. I’m a Fil-Am here in Las Vegas, and after living/worked in another country in addition to USA and with all the insanity going on here right now in our politics, the crazy immigration and the illegals crossing the border without being vetted and socio-economic issues, your video makes me reevaluate on retirement here in America. I love this beautiful country 🇺🇸 but you are absolutely right about your comparison about the crime rate here especially in big cities versus the beautiful culture and low crime rate we have there in the Phils.❤ And you are right, Philippines is not perfect but it has so much to offer as well. Thank you so much for your amazing videos. 😁🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

[@Resellocity]

Immigrants have been crossing the border into this country for hundreds of years. It’s only a problem now because stupid people listen to a loudmouth con artist spew his lies. The country is falling apart because there are too many gullible uneducated easily manipulated fools in this country.

[@marjunmarcelocristobal2678]

❤❤❤❤

[@soniafontanilla747]

The Philippines has a lot to offer if you have money to burn. That's why a lot of Americans wants to spend their Holidays in east Asian countries so they can stretch their dollars compared traveling to European countries. And amongst the east Asian countries the Philippines has the advantage because majority of the population can communicate well in English.

[@boatswainsm8]

I live here in Vegas myself; Summerlin😀

[@christianc6941]

Starbucks here in Cali (as of May 2024) averages $6 - $8 dollars for a coffee drink...WTH! Last time I was at BGC, I stopped by Jamba Juice and got 3 medium smoothies...all for less than 10 bucks! That would be close to $30 at my home town in Cali. Time to move there! LOL!

[@glendacastillo6504]

My choice is Province in the Island of Biri Northern Samar. Beautiful beach, less noisy, less pollution. I owned my small beach home in paradise. RET USAF, i will live a comfortable like.

[@botoyo7374]

Gen. Douglas McArthur and Gen Dwight Eisenhower used to live in the Philippines. I'll be there in a few months.

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Love Philippines 🇵🇭 so greenerie around all the trees 🌳 so clean and nice around

[@ma.divinavillaran6402]

I'm so happy that you find peace and happiness in our humble country.

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Love BGC and really miss that place to keeping around again ❤❤

[@wavemaker2077]

It's so hot out there so better bring an umbrella with you. Men also use umbrella in the Philippines. The sun doesn't discriminate.

[@conniehernandez6519]

I must say the video looked better when you switched from the go pro. Enjoy Manila and keep hydrated! It’s a scorcher over there! I watch your awesome vids everyday from California. Stay positive and keep doing what you do!

[@bassboosted9708]

Philippines is the place to be. I love BGC. God bless the Philippines and Filipinos. It's more fun in the Philippines.

[@j8nene178]

💯 🎯 I've heard and thought the same thing so many times: The Philippines today is more like the USA I grew up in.

[@DebrenGarcia]

New subscribers, ❤ From: phillipines 🇵🇭 Now watching here in middle east Saudi Arabia

[@RandysContext]

Love these walks - we bought a condo in fort residences across from Shaka. Remodeling it now. From Beaverton.

[@reymay49]

Just subscribed! Great video, Brian! Watching from Central Pennsylvania. I'll be visiting the Philippines early next year.

[@zzzzzsleeping]

Do you know before they named it BONIFACIO, the name of this place for 50 years is FORT MCKINLEY? (AFter U.S. PRESIDENT WILLIAM MCKINLEY)

[@user-jw6qp5go5g]

yes its hot because its summer... after summer it's raining season always rains..😊but no more heat 😊

[@user-ih4et8zs8w]

They are moving here in Philippines just because they know it's more safer and more cheaper right

[@febielaurel9543]

Keep hydrated walking under the heat of the sun is so dangerous. keep safe always .

[@user-xr4kp4se1u]

Keep safe sir make fun and enjoyed it your life in Philippines more spaces here beautiful💖💖💖

Happy birthday handsome,greetings from United kingdom🇬🇧🇬🇧but originally philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@maygrantz4426]

Hi, i'm back to watch your vlog and thank you for showing us the beautiful side of Philippines!

[@reggiec2924]

Thank you for the informative video you have shared. I hope to see more.

[@SurprisedLabrador-gl6hy]

Hey, welcome to the Philippines! Glad you like it here! I work in BGC. Maybe I'll bump into you one day. By the way, Happy Birthday buddy!

[@MindsetHacksSports]

First time on your channel and I’m subscribing. I’m going to make the big move out there. You’re right about the changes in the U.S. it will eventually be remedied but I like your calm demeanor. Thank you for the tour.

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Love the weather NIN the Philippines it’s really hot is nice wown

[@user-vu1gx4uv2k]

43 years old is still young for men so never worry about the age

[@marikitliwayway6703]

I miss BGC I used to work there for Wells Fargo when they outsourced their IT Project management to the Philippines but we were laid off because they transferred their IT project management to India. I remember my work to start around 8 in the evening and ends up at 5 AM (our office is connected to the Uptown Mall). the BGC of five years ago since I was there has changed a lot based on the videos I'm seeing

[@watchaPinas]

I stayed in BGC during my last visit. I am motivated to walk daily and fascinated about the place. I don’t understand why people call BGC not the real Philippines? So people there are not Filipinos? Maybe What they really mean is the other side of Philippines?

[@bornonjuly7052]

Nice video Brian!

[@Chavacano]

sorry bro ive been watching your vids for months and only realised i havent subscribed.... now i have.... keep up the good work my idol.

[@imeldageneroso8369]

Hi Brian, I am a new follower. I love watching your video. Thank you for sharing. You have a very good blog. I am watching in Washington state my husband name is Brian too. I am a Filipino and my husband is an American two years. We are going to retire in the Philippines. I love my country. I love my people living in the Philippines is cheaper. enjoy your stay and have a wonderful day😮

[@vivianwenceslao7035]

You know what? You’re the only foreign vlogger that I watch from start to finish .. I love watching you and your narratives.. kaloka ! 😍

[@setharkon1662]

I still don't understand why the monsoon gets such a bad rap. The absolutely scary dark nimbus clouds and freaky downpours is what I love the most about the Philippines. I'm visiting every year now, it reminds me so much of my childhood.

[@therelationshipcounselor]

Have any questions let me know ..... American here living and driving and loving it !!!! Since 2011 dayuuum it's been a long time. Love Uptown and BGC just like L.A and Orange County, Taco Bell is here hahahahahahahaha Cubao and Trinoma Mall if ever .........................but good to see U.S leaving U.S to the Philippines !!! Niceeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@filipinolifestyleincali9262]

That’s a long walk. I enjoyed the tour . TY

[@ttpfvlog]

DJI pocket 3 is selling like hotcakes. Great vid man.

[@Positivevibes6238]

Advance Happy Birthday Sir.🎂🎁🎉🎊🎈Have a memorable birthday in Bohol.Bohol is a beautiful place to explore.Keep safe always.

[@arowennordhoff1728]

Yes,mainit talaga Brian dito sa aming bansa, 💕💝💋

[@MrDetcarsol_in_Canada]

I worked in BGC before, 2018-2019, near Uptown Mall. I missed walking down the road under skyscrapers.

[@emmsphp6641]

Hello young Man new subscriber an ofw fr Abu Dhabi

[@junrepato2292]

You look like in the late 20's and handsome.

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Try to go in rock well to exploring as well is highest building as well

[@jhulpedroso5112]

Your spot on with the coffee prices. Don't forget the tax.. smh

[@flinze2001]

"Gusto ko kape!" nice one. :-) you got it right hahaha~!

[@user-sg5th9bg8g]

Watching you from Calif. I enjoy your videos and new subscriber . Enjoy Manila bro.

[@schubert06sebastian39]

Only foreigners play in the middle of the day, while the Filipinos take cover in the shade before crossing the street when the light turns green.

[@paulmarks8979]

Your true.

[@TheNYCexpat]

Funny you said that about the american dream. Glad to hear another American that's here say it because my latest video is about just that and it's getting a lot of angry Americans commenting lmao Good vlog too, Bonifacio global city looks nice of course. Also the pocket 3 is great, I've been using it on my channel upgraded from the pocket 2 and it's worth the investment for your videos. The 1 inch sensor makes a big difference and the color science is much better than the pocket 2

[@danebrammage4330]

moved here a month ago, live right by Padel club and walk by it almost everyday but did not know about the rooftop lol

[@gracedelizo9086]

We the Filipinos appreciate everything you did to introduce Philippines to the world and bring a good impression and call Philippines “Paradise”.

[@ardendavid5515]

Def a cool place 👌👌

[@Beautiful_8177]

should do the walking from 4 or 5pm onwards

[@rosaliegutierrez8923]

It's very hot walking around stay hydrated...

[@user-co3by4gs5o]

Hopefully all the Americans moving there don't spike up the cost of living look at some of the other countries their own people are being priced out.

[@culturechangers5911]

It eventually will. Already happening in Mexico and local Mexicans are getting priced out due to Americans flocking there. Just a matter of time Philippines will become less affordable.

[@HrmtatManda]

Correct! Too many foreigners coming here will cause inflation and in turn will lead to xenophobia and calls by Filipinos to limit the entry of foreigners to the country.

[@boatswainsm8]

I'm always fascinated when our fellow Americans refer to everything outside America as "3rd world". Im guessing they haven't been outside America. I plan on living outside America when I retire in 2026. Im debating on both Thailand and Philippines. I think I may spend 3-4 months in both countries and then make my way back to the States and turn around and repeat the process; we shall see

[@jayneh2006]

Yoi are just smart to stay away from here bro! You got a good life and sunshine and live like a king and no stress chasing time here to go fucking work!

[@acecaserya9650]

is it a mac camera, try going to podium. If it i not there, you could ask them for the shop that has it.

[@user-nr7ft1dy2l]

Oh my, ang Gwapo mo Pre! Ahehehe

Happy birthday American brothers welcome to The land of Ophir 🇵🇭

Nonsense! The Philippines is not Ophir, a nonexistent place! The Philippines is the Philippines. Period!

[@rockynavea3073]

Hi Brian. Just wondering, what model is your rayban? I love it.

[@Mr.Howell]

Young women giggle when they see you talking to your camera.

[@danielito3766]

Love your videos. Meet me when i go BGC?

[@materesafigueroa8876]

Happy birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉

[@JoeyZee-vs4kr]

So what does the expression "you have a hot day" means? First time to hear that. Tried googling it but no clear answer.😊

[@jayneh2006]

Here in texas bro its $8 small cup

[@alaylaanajacks5647]

Your so quiet. The background noise is louder then you Good for moving there. I agree with you.

[@marjunmarcelocristobal2678]

Daaammmn!! Passing Ladies Stare and greet you " HI!"!! Dude!!.. YOU HAVE PARADISE AT THE PALM OF YOUR HAND ..AT 42!?? ❤❤❤DAAAMMNN!!

[@culturechangers5911]

Yeah, transportation is cheap, but cars are way more expensive there vs in US.

[@FR12369]

Yup BGC's American vibe cities without the homeless..Right..but still prefer the province life me and my aussie partner building a beach house there.It's very expensive in Australia now specially Sydney.Not fun😢

[@sonnye1032]

Mainit talaga, ay naku, gusto ko cafe!!! - coollll, man!!😅😂

[@downhillgroovy5859]

[@jaypeetee2790]

[@marygracebaquiran4389]

[@rodmarc15]

Thanks for sharing your experiences in the Philippines Brian. It is awesome.

[@nildasabang-vo1ys]

♥️♥️♥️🇵🇭

[@snowtyboy]

BGC looks like Vancouver in the summer

[@proudajero1709]

Just want to correct you that in the country side you get more free medication and consultation including the medicines compared to the city. You can also get free operations etc. What I want to say is you get more privileges living in the provinces. ✌️😘

[@rrubio6660]

Not for nothing but wearing black in the tropical heat doesn't help. It absorbs heat making you feel even hotter...literally. LOL! Might want to opt wearing maybe white, if not other bright or light colored tees.

[@FilipinaFreedom]

Unless you’re independently wealthy or earning US dollars from a us employer a lot of young Americans are going to regret moving to the Philippines and forgoing earning their social security for later years. But to each his own.

[@botoyo7374]

My living experience is opposite to yours. I was born, grew up, and finished university in the Philippines. Worked in the Philippines for 3 years, then went on to live and work in San Francisco, Amsterdam, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt, The Marianas, Vancouver B.C., Paris, Chicago, Wyoming, LA, San Diego, San Jose, Portland, Mactan..etc This is a wonderful world. I hope China does not spoil it. Going back to the Philippines to live is no longer an option. I will just follow you to relive those best days of my life living in the Philippines.

[@nelsonsack2694]

Do you have health insurance?

[@paulmarks8979]

Gen. Dwight Eisenhower n Gen. Douglas Mcarthur use to live in the Phils., so westerners your welcome to live in the Philippines
