And this is why Filipinas are so amazing. How grounded to reality a person has to be in order to forage for their own seafood dinner. We lose our minds in the west over grocery prices & these gals are enjoying nature's bounty
Because we Americans are f**king spoiled don’t know how to enjoy simple things.
Sooo true❤
Thank you! That's a sweet and kind of you to say!
Err no. It is because they don`t have any choice.
@@derekwatson7037they have a choice ..but they choose that because it's fun to collect and eat what you've got in ocean..
Okay, As a chef and lover of all things, 'ocean' this resort is on my bucket list.
Being from South Louisiana, I love eating right out of the water. Oysters, scallops, and uni. The umami is the purest in nature. LOVE IT. Looking forward to retiring in the Philippines.
The way you talk to the girls is very nice and respectful.
Do that all the time - Filipinos will appreciate you respecting Filipina women.
Thanks 🙏
I really like the tone of Your travel vlogs. They are fun and respectful of the PH and people. It makes me look forward to your next one.
Thanks I appreciate it 🙏
My Filipina and I have been married 30 years this month and have three kids.
❤
What's are your secrets bro ..So many failed relationships for many different
relationships...
What's your secret bro.. I hear more failed relationships than successful ones

@@davidb371 focus on urself king lmao, let them catch you.
I've been on Negros Island 9 years now. I'm still getting to know these magical islands. The neon green scenery, the beautiful weather, the warmth of its people, the miles of untouched tropical coastline, the pervasive vibe of deep peace. In my working career in the United States I used to travel to Hawaii on business frequently. The Philippines is fully the equal of those U.S islands. Best move of my adult life was ditching Los Angeles and retiring here.
It's so easy to ditch California! Crazy high cost of living. I live next door in Arizona, and u cross state line into California or Nevada, and prices of everything doubles.
I live on Big Island and want to come move to the Philippines ❤
@@keonesilva3646 It will be about one quarter of the price of Hawaii!
@@bradleymiller7375 yeah right,,,,,blah blah blah,,,,complete lie,,,,I have lived in cali my whole life, visited AZ many times,,,,not double,,,,hahahaha,,,,,,fake news
BLM wokes probably go nuts when ever they read or hear Negros Island 😂
Chad. I’m staying at JD Resort this week based on your recommendation. Incredible. Thanks.
Great video! It's nice to see new places and hear from new people. Definitely a place that would be very enjoyable to visit. Keep up the good work!
Thanks I appreciate it !
I’ve watched your videos for a year. I’ve met my Filipina, been to PH twice, and we traveled when there. I’m bringing her back to Florida with me. We’re getting married (K1). She’s smart gorgeous, petite, love her accent, friendly, and we laugh all the time together. Chad, you’ve really found your groove and I enjoy watching your videos more than ever. You’re teaching us things. Thank you for sharing your experiences and encouraging us to see the big wide world around us
Hey David thanks man I appreciate you watching my videos glad you are enjoying, and congratulations on meeting the one that's awesome! Good life ahead back in Florida together… It's all about enjoying your time and laughing together so good for you
I'm trying not to yell at you. Calmly, I'll say, I advise you to NOT bring your dream girl to the USA. She WILL change.
I understand what you are saying. You may be right and you may be wrong. Regardless, I have changed over the years too. I’m not going to let someone else’s experience dictate my own life. My Filipina will change. I will change. I still have to live life. And I’m sure not going back to Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge in America because that ain’t pretty either. Enjoy my friend. I wish you the best of luck with whatever life brings you. Hope the same for me
Don't be afraid to take her back to the US. I cannot understand all the insecurities of some of the guys here.
@@davidgibson6712 A quality response, my friend. I have similar concerns as @d.f.9064, but I applaud you for grabbing life by the b*lls and trying to make the most of it. I wish you and your future asawa the best of luck! 👍
When you realize how expensive Uni or sea urchin is in Japan, you'll appreciate the Philippines.
Can you fry it like Calamari? It seems like it would taste better fried
11:25 and up she's very pretty. Stunning scenery, simple life lovely people. Perfect.
Cool video Chad.
I really like the flow and editing of the video. The music, the drone shots, interactions with the locals, etc.
Thanks 🙏
Yes, you did a superb job on this one. Well done, CF. Thank You for it.
Enjoy and have fun while you still could able to travel around. I’m retired but I have to guide and be with my 14 yrs old daughter here on US. My retirement are more than enough to leave in PI but not here in US especially in California
the japanese and the south koreans go crazy for those fresh sea urchins. if i'm not mistaken, the japanese call them uni .
Yes that's right
I think there are more pretty Filipinas in this video than any other Philippines video I have seen. Like Liz Lemon used to say, "I want to go there." 😂
You see how good things get when you ditch Chris?!? Haha, just kidding. Just from a riding perspective, what an adventure! I had all kinds of great biking memories come flooding in while watching. It is true, nothing creates adventure like being on two wheels on the open road, or path in this case. Amazing Chad, and I am hearing the call! My place here in Savannah goes up for rent next week… already looking at flights.
Haha we're both having good times just on different paths now, good for you! Awesome adventure awaits, enjoy and be safe
Wow the woman at the end looking for Kinas (Urchin) looks so much like my girlfriend in Cebu it's actually spinning me right out
This actually was one of the most amazing videos. Very well done. It shows that you do not need much in live to be happy. Amazing nature and really nice people.
Thanks 🙏 and yes that is so true
Good for you Chad! Buying your scooter in the Philippines is a very practical move. I love watching your videos, kind of missing the Philippines.
Greetings Ate Terrsita colon full Support my friend from Ate Hubad 😊😊 Kev5Auqua
great video, now after living here in the PI for 12 years now, let me caution you, there is a big difference in how you are treated, you will be treated the best if seen as a tourists. People go out of their way for you, but if they know you are a resident, big change and it isn’t a positive one. But overall much better than most places I have lived in Asia and the US.
Wow Chad, ur videos get better for each one. Superb Dude! Ur be number one in the Philippines!
Really appreciate that 🙏 thanks for tuning in, amping
@ChadFosterExplores yes Sir! Looking for the next videos, keep them rolling, please!
You are SO good at talking to girls.
Nice content without being creepy.
That's why his name is "Chad".........lol
New subscriber here! This was amazing and encouraging to go and see more of my country. Looking forward to more of your vlogs!
Hey Chad, I just watched this video and I gotta say, I really enjoyed it.
Thank you for sharing your experience.
You're welcome and thanks... glad you enjoyed
One thing no one talks about, is how do you convert your US electronics (110v) to Philippines(240v)
Are you navigating with a Filipono SIM card on your phone? I have heard Philippines has poor wifi but I don't know if that includes data coverage. When time I will research more on that. Planning a visit. Great video! Very inspiring!
Southern leyte is a gem. The mountains are so beautiful too.
Water sooo clear in the south.
A 125 enduro style bike will cost around P 100000.
The smaller bikes you can put on the bankas like kuja here did. Makes your possibilities for adventure even greater.
Great video thanks!
I truly enjoyed your journey throughout this video. It’s nice to live vicariously through all the things that you’re enjoying and someday I would like to experience a journey like this if I get to come there. Thank you for taking the time to share your journey with all of us that wish we are already there.
Hey Chad, man, how come no one mentions fishing at all? If I come to the Philippines, I want to explore amazing fishing opportunities on those beaches! From what I understand, there is an abundance of fresh water rivers and lakes as well...
...but not a peep from a single Philippines vlogger...
It's fun watching your adventures. Sea urchins...can’t remember if I've eaten one there.
You said you looking for a wife those girls feeding you that seafood look beautiful an full of life .
All of them are wonderful indeed
Do they boil the urchins alive? I know they do with lobster and shrimp and I won't eat them because of that. I wonder where the sewer goes... Wow those girls didn't know you and right away they did all of that with you? So nice!! It seems calm seas around there. Do they go surfing anywhere?
this is the greatest philp video. shows interesting things to do. all the other are just old dudes sitting around. was starting to think the Phils was a boring retirement home.
Thanks 🙏 glad you enjoyed
Amazing that the sea urchins are washed with sea water then eat. I wonder if any one gets stomach problems. Did you, Chad?
looks like a ton of fun. im envious of u lol
Good times indeed
Me thinketh great to see your cool and., easy going interaction with the........locals!@!?😁
When I was in PH I never tried sea urchins but I saw a few dead ones. It was a really nice low-tide encounter you got there, the girl was so polite and friendly, just like you. Thanks for the vlog.
Mare-a-PeePee ....i think that'd be her title, no? =D
Hey Chad love your video and video style, so real and full of detail information. Couple of questions for you. Do you have a home base that you maintain in the phillipines, if so where and how much does that cost you. If you dont maintain a home base what is you monthly budget like and what type of clothing and travel kit are you utilizing to stay completly mobile? Thank Chad
Love this video instruction on the small details...I'd like to explore ...and it's so helpful if you can teach us the ins and outs of how to get around and do things in the beautiful Philippines 😊❤
Having fun in the Philippines is quite different than most people thought.. try it first to see how its like to explore all the best places.. and when they feel good about it, I'm sure they will be coming back again and again..
oh man, what a life. public foraging. the government doesn't go out there and fine people for not having a fishing license or something. That's what it should be like! if you can go foraging with a cute filipina even better! haha
No way I would eat anything out of the water. My Filipina and I spent Feb 2024 there. Mostly Manila and Gen. E Aquinaldo. My health doesn’t allow me to do the things you do so I love watching your adventures! I also don’t eat much food while there either. I lost 20 pounds on this trip. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to more videos!
Thanks for tuning in glad you enjoyed 🙏
Weird
W( here w )ould you recommend purchasing a motorcycle in the Philippines ?
See? I told you it was cool. Did you remember your earplugs for the pumpboat rides?
Haha forgot the earplugs
@@ChadFosterExplores well you won't next time. also works on dogs & roosters at nite.
This is SO COOL!! Thanks Chad for another amazing video!! Way to be adventurous and give the sea urchins a try! Outstanding!! Peace ☮️
Great info Chad! T-minus 3 days till I’m in the PH 🇵🇭 so freakin’ excited!
Niiiice! Enjoy and amping 🙏
Shouldn't be killing sea urchins, you're going to cause a mass extinction! I hope theres at least 2 left so they can repopulate
Enjoyed this video and the previous. Chill and entertaining keep it up. Looking forward to more
Thanks 🙏
The girl on the pink hat is very cute.
She seems like she'd be good company. 😊
Sogod was a great place in southern leyte i visited a few times , its very beautiful area . you should check it out also , the riding is great in southern leyte .
We Filipino haven't visit that place, congratulations
I love the Philippines but they are so destructive to their coastal environment. There are very few fish left as everything is harvested before it has had a chance to reach adulthood and breed to replace their populations.
your buddy carefree cris is dating high school girls , smart move ditching himb
Great video I am thinking about comming there getting a new computer what do you recommend?
Cool. These places are not popular among Pinoys. Great discovery.
I subscribed to your channel.. pinoy here in Metro Manila.
Thanks 🙏 I appreciate it
That you lady in the end looks so content just snatching sea urchins. Living just living
Sea urchins are invasive creatures. They destroy coral reefs.
Did you get a local scooter licence or is your home country licence enough? Is it 3 months on a foreign licence, What cc is your scooter?
I’m not leaving that island without that girl in the Guess shirt🤗
What about safety and the Islamic fanatics???
Wow....... what a great day. Southern Leyte is the bomb. That was one of your best yet Chad. Nice editing and story telling. Salamat po. Peace and Love, B Goat
Thank you I appreciate that glad you enjoyed it! Big thanks for following along my journey 🙏
The thing that jumped out at me was how friendly and unpretentious the locals are...and you seem to get that consistently..Of course, the scenery is great too. Looks like an amazing place.
yeah right,,,u are a walking ATM machine, they are just sizing you up to see how much they can get from you, i have lived in cebu for 7 years. visiting 27 years,,,,u new guys here are so so funny
@@dsrrellgriffith1161I really don’t know why so many people on YT and Reddit keep regurgitating the garbage that Filipinos are the friendliest people
They’re not friendly but not typically mean/rude but yeah when they see a foreigner it’s just dollar signs 70% of the time.
PH is pretty much a 💩 hole, because of the people. Imagine if PH had nobody or just had Japanese/Asians controlling it, it would be a billion times better and sophisticated in 2024
@@dsrrellgriffith1161 All these negative comments and yet you’ve lived in Cebu for 7 long years - and been visiting for 27. Break off the agony and go back to where you came from where ALL people are perfect.
@@dsrrellgriffith1161 You don’t like to share with others the beauty of the Philippines and the kindness of the Filipino people so you are very demoralizing with your words. Can’t blame you for wanting to keep it all for yourself. I’m a Filipino and I live in California.
@@maynardsalviejo7567 blah blah blah. Rookie and u not white like me. U don’t know squat
Chad, you are truly living your best life in the Philippines. It is always amazing to see how the Filipino people truly enjoy the simple things in life. From fishing for their dinner in the ocean nearby and sharing it with their friends and family with fun and laughter. What a great way of life. I am planning a trip to the Philippines soon to experience the same travel enjoyment that you show in your videos. Great video, Chad!
Thank you yes indeed I am, so much to enjoy here, and learn from different ways of life, with an open mind I think you will absolutely love it, amping 🙏
My girlfriend lives on Ponson Island in the Comotes Islands and she gets buckets of the sea snails.
Cool! I love camotes. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙏
Nice adventure Philippines has a lot to offer explore more
This is such a wholesome vlog I love it! Thanks for sharing Chad take care 😊❤🇵🇭
You are welcome and thank you I'm glad you liked it!
what in the world, just - pure - greatness !
Philippines ladies afraid of the sun, nice.
Wow I am from BIliran..From Kawayan…
amazing and beautiful im coming in july
Thanks Chad I'm liking your contacts with the locals love seeing how they live in the Philippines!
Thank you yes I'm really enjoying this, the traveling, the beautiful nature and meeting the locals... good times:))
Brave man eating that but 2 thumbs up for keeping an open mind. I think I would toss cookies. Great video.
Haha 🤣 it was better than I thought it would be
This is why you rent, stay fluid, explore.
Hopefully you got her number
I suspect you inserted a fake turtle
10:34 that budots dance though 😂
Those shells with meat make a great broth
Sea urchin woman. How to meet her!
Hey mate , was good to meet you in biliran , im back in cebu to buy a bike , then I'm thinking of settling cheap somewhere, but after watching this I want to hit the road again 😀
Likewise, haha you can do both!
Did you get a electric scooter? Much better investment though. Electric scooter is much lighter also 👌 what i mean by that is electric scooter kick start where you standing on deck or Goped this is cheaper investment.
The Suzuki Burgman 125 is not an electric scooter
Thanks for this beautiful excursion.
Really cool….
One of your best videos.
Hello Chad I'm glad for you. You are good example that life is not work and overtime that kills you:)) done that.
Yeah I hit that burnout trying to enjoy life in a different way now
There are two kinds of sea urchins. The long spined(toyom) and the short spined(swaki).
just like there are 2 kinds of ducks long and short
Awesome ‼️‼️🇨🇦🇵🇭
A really good one👌, thanks for sharing🏅
I definitely need to go there. Can't wait to go back
You'll love it!
Beautiful nature, nice accommodating ladies too
Yes and yesss!
she looks healthy
My girlfriend just told me 1 hour ago that there was a 6.0 earthquake there today 😔
Yeah I felt it I was watching the sunset when it happened I thought I was dizzy or something was wrong with me but it was the ground moving, spooky
@@ChadFosterExploresStay safe ❤️
Was supposed to say my girlfriend 🤦♂️ how can Auto spell change it to messages 🤣🤣
@@ChadFosterExplores happened to me my first time ever this past March, 9th floor 5.2 scared the ever-livin outta me, bolted downstairs with my wife and a single lonely guy there from another room on business (with other employees staying in other rooms)
At 6:40 looks like Mel is wearing a baseball helmet. That would be the way to go to help avoid the heat. You found some very friendly young ladies to be on your channel. They were so nice. Awesome video log. Thanks for posting this and look forward to your next video, Chad...Jim
Yeah they were great I'll be going back there sometime to stay I really enjoyed it. Thanks as always for watching I appreciate it!
How cool is that? Have rice and Coke and catch a sea urchin and there is lunch! How simple is life....Thanks Chad, keep on dreamin!😍🇵🇭
Yep that’s why Americans never really travel …really travel because they go no where or to the same location the magazine tells them. Very sad. 35 countries and counting and mostly off the beaten path. Keep inspiring Chad!
That's awesome! The best experiences come when you get out of your comfort zone.
@@ChadFosterExplores In 20 years you will be more bummed about what you didn’t do vs happy about what you did do if you don’t chase and do whatever to catch a lot of your dreams. Sounds like you and I will be ok 😉. Cheers
Chad what model Suzuki is that? Did you buy it new? CC’s? Do you mind sharing what it cost? I’m moving there in Jan 25 and the first thing on my lister after lodging is a scooter
Suzuki burgman 125, 7k km, $950, i recommend getting your motorcycle code on your DL before coming
@@ChadFosterExplores Thanks Chad. I have had my M/C license all of my life and I recently got my International license with the M/C endorsement. I was planning on getting a Honda ADV160 but I must admit $950 vs $3800 is very attractive. Thanks for the info, see you soon
Another amazing journey in the amazing Philippines. You’re living the dream Chad, you did it, kiddo.👍🌴✌🏻🇵🇭
