Why I didn't like Manila

[@mostdope9431]

I am a German and my Wife is russian and we love Filipino Foods and Phil.

[@itsmejhe840]

Thank you.

[@halfgermanhalfpinoy1129]

Im a German too.Half German and half Pinoy. 😊 Me and mah girl really love this Country, the islands, beaches and especially the foods in the Philippines like Isaw, nilagang baboy, adobong manok and Indian mango with bagoong etc.😁 parang tutulo na laway ko😂

[@luisayabut7965]

Thank you so much sir. Philippines is an archipelago, which means that we are 7,600+ islands big and small. So our culture too is diverse and same goes with our cuisine, which is a combination of Spanish, Chinese, Malay and other indigenous groups or ethnicity, and some Filipino adaptations or versions of Western cuisine. Thank you.

[@awestonvp]

No fans, no red carpet, just honest vlog. Love it! I think your vlogs are the most real

[@johncortez3428]

I always tell myself when I travel to different countries: Travel with open heart and open mind. Appreciate other cultures by not comparing them to yours.

[@beatrizbravedelapena4668]

That mindset should be shared more to tourist..

[@CharryDasovich]

Worth the wait, was wondering why you are not releasing any vlog, (who am I to ask? , just your #mudragis) But here, almost 20 minutes.. intriguing title though, hmm. Your story telling is on top, Content creator that is! very National Geographic-ee, your cinematography, sequences are just admirable. One of my favorite! Not just a mother but spectator and touching my roots, your roots! Very brave traveling around Metro Manila but I'm not surprised, you and Wil was raised that way💕 no discrimination!!! Keep on going!

One of my favourite things when visiting Philippines was walking around Manila and seeing the authentic and challenging life. I just loved the city but most importantly the people.

[@TheJuicyVlog]

Such an awesome vlog!🙌 Loved the editing too!

[@airahmoy432]

the juicy vlog 💓

[@rigelbangui]

I loved how she showed the other side of the Philippines and its not just about beautiful sceneries. People need to know what we or the government should work on and the truth that should be revealed.

[@MrFrankFurter]

The government has already done a lot. Especially cleaning Manila bay.

[@blackclavish]

boogiebudgie > Don’t be fooled. ‘Cleaning” Manila bay is not going to take a few months or a few years. The bay has been so toxic for a hundred years that it would take 10,000 years for it to be fully cleaned and pristine. That is of course if no further pollutants are introduced. Especially toxic and waste material from the pasig river

[@MrFrankFurter]

@@blackclavish Don't call me a fool. At least somebody is doing something about it.

[@MrFrankFurter]

@@blackclavish so would you prefer it being ignored. How many decades has it been polluted? Maybe you're the fool.

[@blackclavish]

boogiebudgie > you’re an idiot. I didn’t call you a fool, dummy. But really I should have called you a stupid fool. Now go back to school and learn English properly. Don’t waste my time again.

[@natoycolendres3261]

Your vlogs are almost National Geographic worthy. I wish more vloggers were like you. Yours are well-thought out, sharply edited, and with highly informative texts. Many others seem to have committed to release a vlog DAILY, regardless of content, replying heavily on less discerning fanatics for viewership. In your case,less is truly more. You are my favorite vlogger and also wil. Hope I will meet you someday you are my happy pill. More travel vlogs MORE POWER TO YOU. 😊

[@HaleyTakesOntheWorld]

Renz Colendres thank you, that’s great to hear. Vloggers just have different content styles, and I’m grateful you watch mine 😀

[@itsMeCamille]

this also inspired me, not to mention Haley's super amazing vid :) trying to be one of the vloggers and still learning. hope I can get a hug back :)

[@NARFALICIOUS]

I love these vlogs most, when you are walking around new places that aren't always glamorous, but real.

[@nursekatchannel]

Haley, I admire you for having the courage to go around into an unknown neighborhood alone. Your youtube content is becoming more interesting and worth watching. I still remember way back how shy you are to even say "hello" on your brother's vlogging cam. Now, you just go around and talk to random people and share their stories. You are amazing!

[@AaronDoud]

I love when you do this "style". Where is feels like an episode of a documentary TV show. Something you'd see on Nat Geo or Food Network. This Daso the Explorer vibe works so perfectly for you. And it fits what I love to do myself in places I am visiting. Just go walk and explore.

[@cecillec5066]

Thank you for amplifying the plight of half of the Filipino population. Your vlog keep people informed, aware, and mindful of the Filipinos' daily struggle and keep our lives in perspective. 'hopefully the government and NGO's and individuals together can help. Keep it coming girl. Your doing a good job.

[@joeyboytv4618]

This is Raw no filter ,just pure immersion. no sugar coating. Great vlog..

[@thodeus]

IMHO, This is so far the best content you made. I also like the flow of the story and the narration of what you have to say. It is _fresh_ and _real_ and I believe it will remain that way. I actually re-watched it. More power Haley!! keep it up.

[@HaleyTakesOntheWorld]

[@calyx12397]

Yeah its just sad

[@ult7511]

Hope for a better Manila, I'm sure Yorme Isko will transform it into Makati or Singapore, and also hope the people of Manila would discipline themselves for the good future.

[@AngryKittens]

Fun fact: Pateros means "Duck farms", it was the district of Manila during the Spanish period where duck farms were built beside the Pasig river.

[@genefreaksdaily8813]

Had to admit that living in Manila isnt as good as the other cities in Asia/world...But theres this vibe in Manila that you cant explain, something good you wont find anywhere! Nice content Haley!⭐👍🏻🤘

[@ThePrevo02]

Full confession, been a few years since I've watched anything Dasovitch. It was a little kiddie for me, but this is not that at all. This is top notch stuff.

[@jericpantaleon]

I'm impressed you went this far to document this. These are accurate and REAL talk. And daaang you're brave! You ate balut! haha

[@Architelle88]

Thanks for the honesty, all over the world big cities always have the worst problems of traffic congestion, air pollution and poverty, but i know that you are there for the experience.

[@nikkisign8884]

This kind of vlog is worth to watch. I mean. Super informative/with sense/with lesson. Starting to like you haley. Because of this vlog

[@itsmehaidee]

GLAD YOUR BACK!!! I AM FROM GERMANY BUT MY PARENTS IS FROM ANTIPOLO YOU MUST VISIT THIS PLACE

[@TheNewTravel]

Interesting looking city with all the little alley ways full of life... I want to check out Manila for myself sometime. There's something alluring about visiting a spot off the tourist trail

[@AaronDanielLIsles]

Hemlo

[@SlayerofFiction]

Have you had a chance? I've been to Manila a few times and the crime there is through the roof and some parts you just don't want to go. Not sure how she seems to make it everyplace unscathed :P With that said you will have fun, the beset part of the Philippines is in the countryside. On Luzon (the Island Manila is on) are the Rice Terraces which is an all day bus ride away through breathtaking countryside. Baggio is the same distance but another direction, pine trees grow there, its crazy and a very clean city. a little farther north is Sagada which had rice terraces although not as big, they also have the famous Coffins hanging from a cliff. Cebu island you can swim with Whale Sharks on and on. Amazing place with 7001 islands of wonders.

[@gabequirino]

This was really good Haley! The flow of the whole video was really well done. Probably one of my faves 😊

[@tylersmith1415]

This video opened my eyes a lot about Manila. I was in Manila in June for about 3 days and like you, found it crowded, congested and chaotic. It didn't help that my phone was stolen during that brief visit. But seeing the way of life in Manila is eye opening and moving. Also want to say thank you Haley for what you put out for us all. Having recently discovered your channel, I'm liking what I'm seeing on here and am getting inspired to immerse myself to different cultures and visit other countries. Looking forward to what's ahead.

[@ArchieS-id8lf]

I grew up like that. We were free range kids, we played outside all day during school breaks. We just made sure we're home for dinner.

[@sa889677]

The analogy of a "library full" was an adept way of putting it. I just picked this little tidbit..."Where there is food, people gather..." I hadn't taken the time to sit down to look at this until today, so this isn't really too timely. You're sharing and teaching... I know I've said this before, but this is the thing that I value the most in seeing your work (I suppose it's the teacher in me that looks for others who teach in their own ways). What I have seen so far is an individual who shares through self effacing experience...walking through neighborhoods and simply talking with others. This is an encouragement for anyone to get out and dive in. I recall my first experience with balut... coming back from our honeymoon almost 20 years ago, we ended up having a party in the front yard of a family home in Davao. My mother in law heard the honk of a "balut boy's" bike horn and rushed out to the street to flag him down. She got me my first balut and said it would help us to get her a grandchild. I had one of the kids in the family run down to the local sari sari store to get a liter of ice cold Coke. I had about 20 family members cheer me on as I timidly finished it and washed it down by chugging the entire liter of Coke. I have only had it once since then. Perhaps, I'll try another one since you did. Again... nice job. Keep on keeping on!

[@girliedavid3362]

I seldom watch your vlog Haley, I chance upon this episode today and It was surprisingly good, very well researched. I hope you get to do more of this kind of vlog.

[@RampartPh]

i once heard a japan based traveller say, " manila is like that dark, mysterious lady w/c you know is not all that good for you, but you just can't keep coming back to her because you can't get enough of her." or something like that. i forget now :)

[@rosalieb1110]

You've done a good research there.......Grew up in Manila but now living in TX,USA......but there's no place like home...I will keep coming back....and watching this makes me feel absolutely homesick. Just like the song, "Manila, Manila....I keep on coming back to you Manila".....Can't wait to be with you again

Hi Haley your vlogs are really enjoyable to watch. I was born and raised in Manila and lived in Hong Kong and Sydney since I was 5 years old, so I got homesick watching this. You inspire me to travel and explore new neighbourhoods solo. Please keep posting more vlogs, from a fellow vlogger fan 🤗

by the way, the estimated total cost of income is not even the net of the employee. More often than not taxes, gov't and medical contributions are taken out every payday. so let's say the monthly wage is around 18,000 they only actually get to hold 14-16k.

[@vennypuncture4263]

Another great vid haley! Just what I exactly needed after a long rainy day! 💕

[@KittyChaiVere]

I watch ur vlog all the time and I like how u delivered all the information. I also love the editing.. Anyways, I was in Manila before, it was crazy and busy city for sure! But just like u mentioned “Just like books gotta read more into it or dig deeper” Manila might be busy and crazy but there are so much people that work hard morning and night 🙂 Even though, they only make just little salary every month. They remain positive everyday of their life, and they always smile and joke around whenever u talk to them. Life should be like that - living simple as much as possible and find happiness despite of everything going on. Sure do I miss the Philippines! I cant wait to make vlog in our hometown when I go visit again. Thanks for sharing this beautiful vlog..

[@augustobenjamin9749]

I'm a FilAm born & raised in Cali. I've traveled the world and lived in 4 countries. I spent years in the PI as well. That being said, I have to say that this is one of my favorite vlogs of Manila. I also spent a lot of time doing solo trips and exploring. Almost to the point that i had seen and experienced more of Manila than some natives have. Everyone and every vlogger only focuses on the tourist spots or whats trending. When they try to vlog something else like Manila, it comes off a comedic, or in a negative or judgmental way. Whether intentional or not. I was really able to relate to your vlog style. Its was real and brought back a lot of good memories! Thank you from a new subscriber and follower on instagram!

I had ridden motorcycles for nearly 40 years before I rented a bike to ride on Cebu Island.

Hats off to you braving what you do, for a Posh gurl you got some balls.
