    I was in Bayawan in September and I would like to know if there’s any good restaurants there? There’s no fast food restaurants yet. I stayed at what I guess was their best hotel and the breakfast was good but other than that I didn’t see any restaurants. Pure Gold store was very nice tho. I’m moving to the Philippines in February as I will retire there in the Dumaguete area but will return to Bayawan as my girlfriend’s family is in Basay up the mountain.

      There are lots of organizations willing to help in the west. Salvation army, lots of food banks, lots of soup kitchens,the government etc. It is not right for a westerners to go beg in the Philippines. Plus majority of those people, not particularly this one, can still work at least part time

    Hello Dear, Eastern Dreamer , I hope you are well. I visited your UA-cam Channel. Your content is Excellent. But your Channel is not growing, Because your Content title and Description are not SEO-friendly and do not have Enough Rank tags.This is why there is no Content Coming to the top of UA-cam. As a result, your video SEO Score is very low. According to VidiQ, (your channel's video's SEO score is 27.6/ out of 100, which should be 80+). If you want, I can make it 80+ , which will help your channel grow faster. If you SEO your videos Properly then the Channel Progress will be very Fast & Subscribers and Views will Increase. If you want I can solve problems and help you rank your videos Better. If you are Interested Please Let me know. Regards, MARUF (UA-cam Video SEO Expert).

      Philippines will not change for you. Do not set rules when you visit other countries. You have to adapt. To each his own. Don't always comment negatively when you watch other's vlog. You see he has been living there for more than 8 years and he seems contented unlike you you might just set foot for a week or so and you keep complaining.Go to the country where your standards are met but refrain from degrading other countries specially the Philippines. Listen to what he is saying and you will learn a lot why he stayed in the Philippines for so long. Don't inject your negativity to the viewers.Be fair

They moved into New Zealand and have spread all over the world and are spreading into various parts of the Philippines. Hopefully law enforcement there has a clue about these organized crime organizations that are becoming among you more and more.
