As a vlogger in the Philippines, there’s a saying if you can win them join them, meaning you gonna have to adjust everything. Don’t let anything annoys you, bothers you or irritate you , you are in a totally different atmosphere , a developing country and different people around you. There’s hundreds and hundreds of hotel. Where you book yours they didn’t give you a good one , apparently that travel agency don’t know much the good, the bad and not so nice area. Try booking another place. Goodluck.

[@user-mk3ug7pw6z]

If you CAN'T win them, join them.

[@coffeekoh0306]

go to Hennan Regency Hotel Boracay next time

[@sportyguy9326]

If you are a mountain person then DEFINITELY you should go to Baguio and Benguet and see the BANAWE RICE TERRACES considered one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World

[@analintabat4539]

Hahaha marunong magtawad SI kuya sa sunglasses 😎 Pinoy style ❤❤❤love it

[@winnieyoung613]

All vloggers and people who go in Boracay are enjoying and appreciated the natures and friendly filipinos.They don't care the money they expend but to enjoy and you are safe 😊

[@rosannehernandez2514]

I am happy for Zane! 😊 Have a safe trip!

[@armin_nicolas]

I Miss Boracay so much. Looking forward for more videos 🥰

[@richardnuevo]

If you like mountains I suggest that you should go to Albay or to Baguio, Sagada and Bontoc, Mountain Province

[@jokowi3132]

hi.........malaysia truly malingsia

[@aradinamayan2859]

Thanks for visiting the Philippines. Appreciated much. Just subscribed your channel.

[@texasmike1977]

Hi Zane. I love your travel videos especially your Philippines trip. Hope you stay longer and feature more videos of the country.

[@kelliemason6393]

Zane!!!! I am glad that day is over for you so many stressy events! onwards and upwards !! x

[@jetbisayaadventures1437]

That ube moon cake looks so good and satisfying. Hope your travel to Boracay went smoothly and Goodluck going to Paradise. Be safe and have more fun in the Philippines.

[@Booboobanana]

I love your travel blog man. Pretty laid back and more real. It's cute how you get curious and enjoy food in the Philippines.

[@Phillip.V]

Hi Zane, Thank you for showing BORACAY and Philippines in your VLOGS.... The vlogs you do are so informative, clean and enjoyable to watch I'm a new sub...I look forward to watch more of your adventures here in Manila and the provinces too...thank you for your vlogs I'm not feeling depressed as usual.... thanks! Enjoy!

[@buddyb-uo7gu]

Ever hear of trying them on first!! 😁 Enjoying your videos, especially the Vietnam series. Helped me with my decistion to go there next year. Thanks again.

[@richardnuevo]

It's nice that you try to walk away from the crowd. There are a number of beaches there aside from the white beach. the other side of Boracay is known for its water activities and there's also like the inland Boracay where you can find a river and where you can do hiking and other stuffs

[@jokowi3132]

hi.........malaysia truly malingsia

[@rac23ph]

That's a delicious mooncake.. It's very nice that you will go to Boracay one of the most beautiful beaches in the Philippines.. Have a nice & safe travels. More power to your adventures here in the Philippines...👍

[@pattypatty5567]

I'm sorry for your GoPro and bad experiences at the hotel. Bad day happens. I'm sure good days are coming to you :) Btw you look so handsome with the sunglasses 😎😊

[@roverlights6113]

i love that you dont let yourself get scammed. SALUTE

[@MyJourneySolo]

Nice tour of Boracay. I agree traveling solo is great. I will be in the Philippines for a couple of month starting February.

[@lisanormand5617]

I got up this morning to a crazy winter storm here in Manitoba Canada I made my porridge sat down and see you eating pizza and drinking beer 😂 if I was a young man like you I would certainly travel but being an old married woman nah I'm like you I don't care for nightlife. I really wanted to see that little island thing 😊 sorry about your gopro see yah next time ❤ blessings

[@emildatalaugon766]

Good morning Zane, Always watching you're videos 🇮🇹🇵🇭. God bless

[@zanetravel]

Thank you!

[@susansamuntanperson8124]

Hello Zane ,enjoy ur vacay at boracay ,take care ❤

[@marynelson7856]

Wow. Absolutely beautiful!

[@kencedeno6920]

it was funny to look at zane's defeated look on his flip flops. the face showed how unsatisfied he got when he realised the size is too small for him XD

[@normaacey3513]

You should try it first before you buy make sure it fits you.

[@jokowi3132]

[@chitocucio4573]

He should go back to the store and exchange it for two sizes bigger.

[@alonsosonne2908]

These mountain provinces near MANILA have absolutely stunning nature n very attractive 2 Westerners coz of its Cool weather.

[@Rob_430]

Hard to believe he didn’t travel with sandals or know how and what to buy since he didn’t have them. You don’t have to be near a beach or sand to wear sandals…….lol! Then he ends up with white sandals that are more for females.

[@davies110077]

i was really smiling the entire vid because you cant move on with your slippers. a lot of bad vibes you had on that day. i miss your intuitive channel. i only watch you and the other tarot reader - Elana. you should visit palawan also, or batanes. enjoy your vacation zane and always take care!

[@rudericklaudencia1791]

You must go to El Nido Palawan and siargao island also to explore the beauty and touristic places in the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@MG77740]

Just curious if Palawan has a malaria concern at all or how its avoided. Also, which has better beaches Palawan or Siagao. I have 5 weeks and may go to Boracay, Siagao and Palawan? Any specific beaches that you can recommend on the later two?

[@pastense]

I miss El Nido so bad! Most beautiful part of the Philippines. All of Palawan in general. We were informed by our travel agent and by the locals NOT to drink the water in El Nido. Even to brush your teeth, you have to use bottled water. Prollie a ploy for us to buy water, but we weren’t gonna risk it! lol

[@user-mk1cs9gt4j]

What a beautiful places you showing us. Thank you I love the beach so peace full and the sunset. 🐚🌝🏖️😎

[@ozpinaysupermom3218]

There are lots of good accomodations in Station 2. I specifically love The Coast - lovely place to stay in, great service, nice food, free afternoon snacks, free foot and leg massage whenever you want. Enjoy Zane.❤️

[@perlaaguinaldo]

what i relly love to watch to bloggers are food mukband thanks for sharing your boracay trip zane take care always love from manila👍😄😍🙏✌🇵🇭

[@John-vh3ig]

Great blog!

[@FR12369]

Hey Zane if you walk further in station 2 there is a real Havainas store where you can get real sizes i think its near the diving gear store.Try it first next time. Hope you still enjoyed your stay.

[@carydum9356]

Since you say you're a mountain guy try Baguio, Sagada, and Banaue. Somewhere near Manila try Antipolo, Tanay [ tuh - "NIGH" ], Tagaytay [ tuh - "guy" - "THAI" ]. If there are underrated, unpopular places I would recommend that would be Abra Province - Kaparkan Spring Terraces. But best time to go is during monsoon season... Also Bukidnon Province in Mindanao, one of the landlocked provinces. Enjoy!

[@jessiejunio3046]

Injoybyoyr stay in Boracay Sir Zane... Keeosafe and have fun blogging..

[@ermarios4281]

That sunglass looks good on u! Enjoy the famous Boracay in the “Paradise of Asia” , Philippines.🌴⛴️⛵️🚁⛰️🌇🛳️

[@beataberglund2604]

I was at Boracay in 1997 , was on the island for 6 weeks because it was so calm , no traffic, just one bar , I heard from my friends that been there in 2005 that was crazy , so what I see on your video is nothing at all what I was enjoying. Also heard that they island had to close just before COVID , cause of all what people destroyed in both ocean and on land

[@chitocucio4573]

My first time in Boracay was in 2007, and people can still leave things on the beach unattended.

[@ermarios4281]

Zane, most foreign travellers are staying in Henann and Shangrila u just need to give it a try nxt time so u can see the real luxury vibe of Boracay. Few people and amazing view.

[@alanhughes1262]

i went there in 2017 loved it going back in 2024 after seeing your bit on the hainn hotel resort will book it. last time i stayed in station 3 to far away,love ya deal with the glasses .use to be a great pizza place on the cliff in station 3 but i think its gone.

[@jerryd9124]

Nice video 😊

[@anaportiacarza9031]

Zane , have you visited Puka Beach Area? Try visiting that area , it is only one tricycle ride.

[@simplynanete]

It's very summer there in Boracay you should experience the para sailing so that you may see the whole island

[@margaritasun7908]

For a travel you can do it in 2 8ways ; 1) alone - enjoy the nature 2) with a group - enjoy the company in nature I do it either , depends on my travels purpose **** So far , i havent been in Boracay because of too much crowd and over comnercialism . **** So far , most of my solo trip , its the less known but amazingly beautiful beaches where its simultaneous relaxing and enjoying everything from accomodation to nature itself. One is Anda , Bohol.

[@amaliahightower]

Glad you liked that pizza. Everyone loves Red Horse. It’s a strong beer.

[@lunalobgood4871]

Cover the led light with a towel, buy a water risitant pouch/dry bag. All can be easily be fix. Needless to say dont sweat the small stuff in life. Enjoy

[@marartper9770]

Thanks for your advise

[@rm06dakind4]

If you was trapped in that bathroom door for 20 minutes, I would definitely complain and make sure that the door got fixed. You should have haggle your sunglasses for 100 pesos. These vendors will try to rip tourists off without shame.

[@luxusken05]

The thing with beautiful places is, everyone wants to see them.

[@doc2log]

Thats qhy there is thing called planning.

[@ermarios4281]

Zane u visit the nirthern part of Luzon. Try to tell the viewers the old heritage and colony. Traditions amd practices. There is a church in Pangasinan called Manaoag u need to include that amd also Vigan. Spanish culture amd tell the history of it. Everytime u vlog try to include the history, practices and traditions of each province and try to interact more with tbe locals there. Just be cool and friendly. Always smile and be happy so people will be comfortable with u. 😀

[@mikeealtiveros137]

Yeah it’s allowed to up there in the rock. It’s just too sunny the time you went so you can’t see much of the people go up there. 31:22

[@louiscamacho7954]

I was there in March 2023, much less people. But now probably better night life. If you can speak English you can travel the Philippines, since most of the younger people speak it well and are thought in school. Boracay you need to spend 4-5 days to really enjoy.

[@Joepoe20041]

I use klook in Bohol, Boracay, Cebu and the big attractions in the Philippines. Its not available in smaller cities or towns. I also used them in Singapore and Hong Kong.

[@kevwanders]

The color of the water really fvcked me up broo.. Hope you visit SIARGAO Island that not that packed and not fully developed like Boracay which kinda too crowded for me . ..

[@richardnuevo]

Boracay looks sooo crowded now. it's holiday season

[@doc2log]

The holidays are the peak season for peopke to go on vacation and little bit more expendive. That's true wherever you go in the world.

[@joelranario6900]

Try Bohol.. Old churches, ricefield, falls and countryside tour via tuk2 tricycle its cheaper to rent..

[@alcoyne3333333333333]

Thanks for your honesty 👍👍🇮🇪☘️

[@normaacey3513]

Baguio, Mountain Province, Banaue Rice Terraces if you want mountain - North of Luzon

[@citrinehills7131]

if you have a Chinatown in your state you can get mooncakes from Chinese bakeries during the Chinese New Year time. The filling is red bean paste.

[@titosarmiento8333]

Green algae again? How could i compared it to koh kood or Similan beaches of Thailand.

[@klaudefarrales7187]

Zane, that pair of sunnies (fake RayBan) costs about a 100 pesos only or less if you buy it in binondo/divisoria area just near Ramada Hotel where you first stayed in Manila. Foreign vloggers who came earlier and stayed at Ramada bought also their basketball jerseys also in Divisoria.

[@ermarios4281]

Nany activities that u can do there. Hot air balloon ride, jetski, ferry ride, helicopter ride etc. A lot of clubs and gymn that u can choose from aside from different resto that offer different international cuisine.

[@redmild3833]

oh sorry tknowing you're locked inside bathroom 😢 I've been in boracaybefore pandemic starts. and we chose station 1. very nice and peaceful resorts.U should go there next time.

[@ermarios4281]

U need to go in other station. Try the Henann and shangrila. Many hotels and villas there. U try to stay in different places bec each have different vibe and beauty.

[@wealthsuccessltd]

I'd like to learn more about your crypto experience. Could you make a video explaining what you do? Love the travel content man!

[@luzvidz8834]

Try the lemoncito juice…it’s the lemon of the Philippines..super good 😋✌🏼🇫🇷

[@Rob_430]

I’m curious to know what luggage you travel with? It seems I see 2 back packs, 1 front, 1 on the back?

[@arocaroc4262]

If u are more of mountain person go up north in the Cordillera mountains and you will love it there. Hire a motorbike or do a 3day trekking in the rice terraces. Watch the Roamaniacs vlogs around the Philippines

[@JSchulteProductions]

You are killing me with those sandals 😅😂 you asked for male sandals and got kiddy size. Safe travels!!!!

[@alvinantonio8033]

A while ago Boracay was shut down for months because it was really dirty. Looks like they really cleaned it up not only because pandemic shut it down, but the country is rehabilitating everywhere fore more visitors to see the true beauty of the philippines.

[@SkyBlue-rm6pb]

I heard Duterte shut it down for 6 months and invested few billions if I'm not wrong 4 billions? Just for cleaning up and they really did a good job , also got rid of the one time use plastics.

[@GretchenBostrom]

Which model Go Pro do you use?

[@wynncruz1467]

I love the Magandang Umaga.

[@jeremyking3986]

What credit card and lounge? I’m looking for a new card, I have 2-3 trips planned next year, Thailand and Philippines. Thank you 🙏

[@boyet_tammy]

You could have tried it first your sandal.. actually you can return it or exchange it for bigger size 😊

[@188jan]

I got property there in Kalibo but never been there. I’m from Texas USA What I’m doing here in the mighty USA. You should try the pink beach n the black beach.

[@mikeealtiveros137]

We just leave our things on the beach, cover them with a towel and swim. Keeping our eyes on our valuables from afar. It’s safe in Boracay. 28:08

[@abebadua1259]

700 price for sunglass is expensive, it would be lower price in the market, Caribbean beach Is whiter I guess tho never been yet to Boracay beach and Caribbean beach

[@GretchenBostrom]

I def would not enjoy being constantly solicited. I could see how that’d put a damper on stuff. I love solo travel. When I travel w/ others I still need big chunks of alone time. I have always been more of a loner and like you say, you have ultimate freedom to go where you want and do what you want whenever you want. Do you do Crypto as your digital nomad work? Have you met other solo travelers doing digital nomad work? What sorts of jobs do they do if so? Was just curious.

[@denniscabilla6811]

U look gorgeous at ur sun glass

[@johnpaolobas1036]

Hello sir new subscriber here I suggest you go to Manila Bay dolomite beach on Easter Sunday because it is close today

[@lesmisurbanite5306]

Go North to Sagada, Baguio, etc. These are mountainous areas

[@vilmabustamante9513]

there is an UBE inside or purple yam flavor the taste is good

[@ricmanalo434]

If you're not a beach person you should go here up north in Baguio City where it doesn't look like the typical Philippines.

[@pinoy1066]

january to february is the best time to visit boracay as there's no algae and less local tourist.

[@jetbisayaadventures1437]

Those people approaching selling you anything actually don’t mind them , I also wanna mention to you that they are locals the original tribes that lives there peacefully until it blow up because of one foreigner discovered the beauty of Boracay then the whole world come and go back and forth so the local mostly given lands around and outside Boracay. I will feel annoyed too when someone approach me , I prefer i approach them. So in order to make a sell they’ll have to ask.

[@mikeealtiveros137]

Ahaha manong is trying to overprice you. 200 is a good price though, good one! 40:09

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Try to go I SIARGAO and lots of any places in the Philippines 🇵🇭 beaches

[@MA-rd8pz]

it's overrated when it comes to beaches.... Except that it's "virgin" compared to Boracay.

[@jayneh2006]

That white powdered sand is far mire beautiful that the pink sand in the nasau bahamas.

[@benjaminsales7220]

You look good with that sunglass . Try it with say 150 pesos

[@rooneyramos4946]

Zane, are you from USA?

[@user-mk3ug7pw6z]

Zane, Boracay is the 10th among the 25 Best Beaches in the World. Formerly No, 7. You will love the white beaches and the spectacular fire dance at night.

[@Trendmebeauty]

Good to know, I'll make sure I don't stay in that hotel. Preferably will be at the other location instead of #2

[@richardnuevo]

I always get 44 and I think it will fit your size too

[@jerryd9124]

It’s not a shipwreck I think. It’s called the Willy’s Rock where the statue of Saint Mary stands :)

[@ricmanalo434]

The sunglass vendor takes advantage on foreigners,that cost only 150 here in Baguío.

[@neeeds3908]

Having a good laugh re: your wrong size sandals… i feel you mate!

This guy makes me laugh lol..... Im going to the phillipines in January from Canada

[@marichuarmodia2375]

Be patient in the Philippines is not in some abroad i so much rushing and so much hot head and not nice some around in the abroad good attitude and not Philippines culture is very kind and friendly and patience

[@katkat_1987]

Try the luxurious hotels so u won’t complain..

[@benjover1153]

I noticed this since watching your videos. You need to have a hair cut trim a little bit. Thank you.

[@PretzelKid]

Question is, would you buy another Moon Pie? You were the last check in at that shitty hotel so you got the room with the bad bathroom.. Outstanding video..

[@judelagasca7536]
