- This is the final vlog of my Cordilleras adventure in the Philippines...
The drive from Ifugao to Benguet was a little bit intense, scary and even dangerous at times. In this vlog you will see me leave and drive my motor across the highest point in the Philippines highway system. Along the way I hit an active landslide...
It was inspiring to see everyone doing Bayanihan! But it was also dangerous.
What a way to end my Cordilleras adventure.
Power On!

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR TAKING THIS JOURNEY WITH ME. IT WAS BEYOND INSPIRING :)
POWER ON!
You inspire us a lot! If i still have the opportunity to travel at my age, i will! Esoecially the cordilleras..
I have been following you, am from Cordillera and i have not been to other provinces. Thanks a lot Kyle.
Thank you so much for sharing us your journey up north... Its so inspiring. Keep it up man and always be careful
you were so inspiring kulas. yah power on!
That landslide is dangerous and scary...take care all of you!
The landslides just completed your journey to the Cordilleras. This is the thing that we always have to deal with in the mountains during rainy seasons.
I am glad that you were able to capture these challenges of living and travelling in the mountains. I appreciate that you always share your learnings through your vlogs. You really are a teacher. Apir! 🙏👊
truth be told.
We Know you get tired but pleasee, dont get tired of making videos about the beauty of the philippines and YOU ARE A TRUE LEGEND KULAS. :) :')
Sir Kulas I watched ur vlogs matagal-tagal na but this time its my 1st time to post a comment just for u hehehehe. I can't believed it u went/passed to my beloved hometown in TINOC, IFUGAO. U are the 1st foriegner who went in our place to vlog. Congrats and may GOD BLESSED U all d hard work u do and blessing come upon U. Always be careful were ever u R, God is always with u. Thank You Po for fleeting to my modest municipality.
That's crazy you got that slide on cam!!! Well.... Sort of.. I mean id be so dissapointed if you didn't since you have like 4 cameras 😂 glad you made it out of there safe bromigo!
We know Bitbit you will be freaking out just like when the fighterboys truck broke down your losing hope and disappointed and blaming Kulas jajaja Kulas is truly fighterboys he is always positive and optimistic....Always saying salig lang lol..
Bret Maverick next time Bro you need to go with Kulas in The North so you can try and experience it man..it’s gonna be a good adventure you and Kulas😂😂👍
Farmers praying for rain to help their vegetables grow but travelers like you praying for sunny day to avoid landslides & muddy roads. Respect the mother nature & the farmer's answered prayers. That is life, always has controversy, we have to live with it and be thankful for the safe travels. Rock on Brabrad! Don't let those rocks hits you...LOL! Very good video...
Lmao he was there for a long ass time he was pretty much local anf hes on a moped down a steep ass hill he could get hurt or worse case scenario die and it always rains in the Philippines so calm the fuck down.
Well said lol...
So true! Power on
I'm glad to see a place where people don't depend on the Government to do everything for them. Freedom sometimes is being independent and self reliant in life.....
Totally agree, i just hate those people who always depends and blames the goverment, without trying to help themselves.
Respect for you Kulas thanx for blogging this reality that is going on in the mountains... the hardworking farmers of the Cordillera..
youre right kulas in all of your observations abt the people, the place and the culture of the entire cordillera. i was a sales rep of books for 3 yrs when i was younger and the whole of cordillera was my assignment. i. could never forget the hospitality of d mountain people to me. at times they had me sleep in their homes, and i could feel their genuine kindness. i got so many happy memories with them. theyre awesome, i love them so much❤
thanks for sharing your adventures and for your love for this country and its people!
youre an inspiration my brother. God bless your travel advocacy. continue bringing positivity and hope to d world! power on👊
Thanks for sharing. For atleast they will be enlightened who really are the Igorots.
Many many thanks to Kulas in featuring the Cordilleras for the spectacular aerial views of the landscape of the provinces, and municipalities. Also, in showcasing the native highlander with their customs, tradition, ,kindness, and hospitality that exude with love and warmthness for the world to see. "Power Down" temporarily for a well deserve rest, then "Power On" again for your next Philippine adventure. "Your the best brodd"
You always say respect to the people and everything you encounter, but the utmost RESPECT goes to you! Such an inspiration... power on!
The tenacity of the Philippine people is legendary. After the ferocious typhoons that occur there you see them sitting around waiting for FEMA, they dig, help each and POWER ON. What an example to us canos.
So impressive how they respond!
But they don’t force their government to be accountable, bad roads, unfinished roads are due to corruption
If the DPWH and the local govt unit is doing its job, the people wouldn’t have to do the job for them, the veggies and other produce will rot before reaching the market
@@enrieangeles don't blame the dpwh for lack of manpower for huge load of projects, it's unfair.
If they do something like the Patapat viaduct through those mountains instead of widening trails intended only for people and their herds, that would solve the problem of landslides in a huge way. More expensive, but more long term.
Kulas ,your such an Amazing inspirational Vlogger.,Near or far...Safe or Dangerous...your such a fearless person...You have a fighting Spirit and Strong determination with Positive Mindset .You have a kindhearted who cares for others...,God Guide and Bless you always...Take care always...
*Nice vlog. I enjoy seeing the smaller towns you come across* ✅🙂
The small communities in the mountains were wonderful!
This is your final blog from Cordillera, am from Cordillera and thank you so much for reaching remote places where tourists don't go, now you are leaving the moutainous area but am sure you will go back.
I will be back. With Friends
@@BecomingFilipino am hoping to meet you when am home for vacation in Mtn Province.
So much respect to these people clearing out the road by themselves despite the real danger! The vegetables need to be delivered on time that's why they chose to take the shorter route. This Cordillera adventure is one of the highlights of your awesome countless videos. Power on Kulas:)
Strong people!
Unforgettable, particularly moving series. You might want to put together all the Cordillera videos into one special compilation. Congratulations.
The scene you were in, "landsliding on the spot" that's how Halsema road was and still is. I don't know why, all those years, the department responsible for road improvements cannot come up with solutions. Bessang Pass is the ultimate route going to Baguio, La Union, Pangasinan, Manila, Ilocos regions and beyond. Bessang Pass that I knew was not the Bessang Pass you passed - paved. Road then was covered with gravels and potholes. Not an easy road to navigate, scary at times because of the elevation. Little mistake in driving can cause you your life and the rest of the passengers in the car. Stunning route, no doubt but dangerous. Hopefully Cordillera will get the attention it needed because of your coverage and to places that needed roads and bridges improvement. You magnified the problems rooted in the mountains. Mountain provinces need access to good road so farmers can bring their produce to the designated distribution areas. It's been a very good ride with you. You brought me a lot of memories bad and good. Your motivation and determination are infectious despite seemingly unsolvable situations and still have that grin in your face. I've learned things I didn't know - "Ifugao history. Talking to Marlon and Janu brought light as to why Mountain Provinces were not populated by the Spaniards considering they've been in the Philippines for over 300+. I hope to see you in other parts of the Philippines. You deserve complete rest. 21 days on the road? Not easy on the body. From big sister - take it easy.
Thanks for sharing all this insight and being part of this adventure!
@@BecomingFilipino I should be the one to say - THANK YOU. You took me to places I never imagined exist. You have a video that I watched, just came home I think after your date anniversary with Therine. In this video, you said "I don't know what to do with my life". I saw your video in Atok, then in Abatan, an idea came to my mind. I thought that maybe what you need is a little "push" to challenge your sanity. You took the challenge and successfully did it. Along your trips, you brought me excitement as well. The exact word I think for "give and take" is "symbiosis. You give me something, I will give you something in return. We're even. See you somewhere.
@@loriechilson925 I always like to read your comments every blog.
@@judithabdon4773 Thank you Juliet - soooooo sweeeeeet for swinging by! How's life in your corner? In my corner, weather is pretty good but two weeks ago, I was not a happy camper, temperature was awful. It was hot - three digits. I suppose, mother nature is telling me (us) we're in a different season, time to get out and take a walk in the woods. Appreciate the effort for reconnecting. I hope to hear from you again. Shout out for Kyle for making this connection possible. Take care and Godspeed!
@@loriechilson925 here is pretty good it's like the Cordillera temperature.. it does sometimes rain too
In the mountain, landslide is the danger that comes along with the beauty and spectacle it offers for everyone to enjoy..........but nothing beats the beauty in the hearts of people who come together in support of each other .....Am proud of the culture.
I think Filipinos are so used to being in difficult situations because of our quality of life in the country that when we encounter obstacles our instinct immediately is to find solution or take action instead of waiting and being discouraged.
Kuya Jeprox FTW! He was the best travel partner you had for the entire journey! Thank you for showing through this series a wonderful group of people in an amazing part of the Philippines.
Kuya Jeprox was AMAZING
@@BecomingFilipino aerox rocks
You always go to the remotest places in the country. It's like I'm travelling with you when i watch your vlogs. Haha. Oh how i wish i am! Lol!
Ooh.. loved the heart Kyle! Haha! I love my Canadian bf! Lolol. Not you but a Canadian too. Haha
This is one of the reasons why I like Kulas. I can not put you into a particular genre about vlogging. Many people are just there for there own personal interest, they are just there for the enjoyment, hunger for money. But I cannot see that in you. It separates you from the others. I love your reflection; totally open minded, multi cultured individual and appreciative. People could learn these from you.
Thank you kulas !proud igorot here..God guide you always
In that part of the world, bayanihan is still in the heart of the people because they are the one who helped each other first before aids from any govt or NGO's. Salute you Kyle for doing such adventures. So rewarding and how many times I cried because we feel for us people in a plain land that life over there 10x harder. But, they manage to survive that simple, quiet, healthy lifestyles. So much respect for conserving that wonders of the world, the beautiful rice terraces.
What an adventure, tough one.Get some rest, relax & enjoy life to the fullest.I knew Kulas that you are at home now in Cagayan de oro with Bret & Kumar.Amping always.👍
Don't quit, just rest Kulas.. more strength in your next adventures!
Thanks Kulas for the heart! Haha! I'm not new here, just now been commenting coz i just can't hold off the excitement anymore! Haha
Landslides are really scary things. There is no stopping them you just have to hope you don't get in the way. Great vlog!
Safetrip always Godbless,, Proud to be igorot
The landslide footage best ever.
Thankful to you Kulas, for all the beautiful places you Vlog from Cordilleras. Keep it up!
Your travels are far beyond adventures and thrills.... It is not only informative, inspiring but an eye opener. Those are risky and dangerous roads, Kulas. Your determination is extreme with a genuine heart. 😍
Hello Kulas and good morning Philippines....what an adventure again that captivates every heart to desire and visit the beautiful side of Cordillera mountains...hoping that thru this video clip of yours Kulas will inspire the Philippine government to develop and repair roads for the benefits of the local vegetable growers of the country. I think that because of corrupt officials of that region, the budget for road development has been pickpocketed. The national goverment (COA- comission on audit) should investigate and ask the local officials ((DPWH) to explain the whereabouts of the budget. The area has a good potentials to attract tourists only if the roads are safe to travel..local people can live in peace and harmony only if the national government provides and develop good infrastracture. Everyone can climb that mountain areas with confidence! God bless Kulas and Mabuhay Philippines!
Hats off with my full respect to you Kyle for taking us to a Mountainous Adventure in the Cordilleras. The road to Tinoc from Kiangan was but a trail then & folks would even wade through leech filled streams to reach it by foot. You were fortunate to not be stranded on the road by the common landslide & spend the night. Glad you came off the adventure in good health & still smiling! You sure deserve a long, sleep.....
Bayanihan means "Badang" in Kankana ey. But some called as "Ob-ob-bo" or "Of-of-fo in Bontoc
haha ob ob fu padli adi amin ay letter b ya "f"
Thanks for sharing the Cordilleras Kulas. You're amazing!!
Kyle ( Kulas ) , thank you for sharing your wonderful Luzon adventure. It was beautiful . Again thank you, much appreciated . Cheers 🍸🍸🍸from USA 🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing, Bayanihan and Walang Iwanan
Wow thats what i love aboutthe Philippines. Here in Canada we would just sit in our cars and trucks and wait for the government to clear the roads. But honestly we would not be aloud to help. But still it is cool how everyone grabs z shovel and helps. Love it there so much. Power on bro & stay safe.
Kyle , I so glad that your safe , that was very intense just watching , I can’t imagine how you were feeling . I’m sure it must be very hard for those who do live in the mountains . Get some much needed rest and continue watching out for yourself .😊😍
Praying for your safety Kulas... It is an honor that a foreigner who is becomingFilipino appreciates the bayanihan in our country... Thank you for always showing the good things about our nation while we Filipinos forget to appreciate our own. God bless your journey!
Makes you want to value more your life. Respect for these people in the mountains, they go through hardships and yet they still smile and look happy... ❤❤❤
Omaygash kulas,everytime you have a video like this seeing and listening to your narrations makes me cry and reflect deeply that we in some ways is kind of lucky to have concrete roads that we can use going back & forth..I also respect people in the mountains..by the way your vlogs are my brekky,lunch,dinner and sometimes midnight snacks.. #poweron #BecomingFilipino
well done kulas... u r officially the adopted son of the north
So glad you are safe. But what an experience and to see how everyone gets out, even the drivers, to help out.... with limited and inapprorpiate tools. Yet they persevere.This is what they do.
Thank you Kyle for taking us into the Cordilleras. I learned a lot. 👍✌️🤙
the Cordilleras was indeed beautiful and unique. 👌🏻
I just love how Filipinos are coming together too make our country so much better. Things were different when I grew up there. Everyone wanted to leave. Now we want to come back.
Wow !!!! Amazing finish to an EPIC journey through some of the toughest terrain you could take on a motorbike !! You've been through rivers, scary bridges that look ready to collapse, drone hunting in black mamba country and that landslide was unbelievable and tense watching the amazing mountain people of the Cordileras risking their lives to open the road back up !!!!!!!! Thank you Kyle an epic series of vlogs !!!! Take care.....
That was a hell of adventure Kyle. See you on another Cordilleras series! I'm planning to rediscover our pinoy heritage in a way of learning Igorot's culture. Hopefully pandemic ends and I'm gonna power on up in the mountains. There are still so much to learn and discover in the Cordilleras!
My deep and sincere appreciation for sharing your mountain vlogs. So much to see, know and absorb. My knowledge of that part of the Philippines has much improved because of your perseverance and tenacity. Don’t know how to show my appreciation. If you have any projects that need some assistance, count on me. That is the least I can do. Power on!
isa kang LEGEND kulas! i feel so nervous while wathcing on that landslide, it was really scary. pls dont do that again during rainy season because you dont know what will happen in the mountains and thanks you are safe. SUPER APIR... take care ride safe and GOD BLESS...
Filipinos are resilient, but the people in the Cordilleras are exceptionally resilient and tough. Thanks for this adventure and sharing it to the rest of the world. Power on Kulas. Following you from NZ 🇳🇿
You are more than Filipino brother kulas because not all Filipinos went to the places you've been thru, like me it's only on your videos i can those beautiful places. thank you.
You're one hell of an adventurer, Kulas!..you've taken us to a lot of uncharted territories some of us dare not go!. Take care of yourself, man!..Power on!
Wow! Did'nt know you came here from the place where I work from. That road you traversed is already under improvement. Hope to see more videos from you.
Kulas be careful always God bless u,, 👍👍😘😘
Thank you, Kyle. This was a real learning adventure. The people are so kind and generous just as are most filipino's. You took us on an adventure to another place of beautiful landscapes in the mountains of northern Luzon, and I for one loved every minute of this series. I appreciate your talent of showing us the beauty of the sunrises and sunsets and the terraced mountainsides, and, of course the people. Thank you, thank you.
Oh no!!! not the final please. Would love to see your Mt. Pulag vlog... and the New Highest point is just 2 kilometers above you @ 12:50, you just pass through it... please come back. saludo.
Nice...so very nice bro..now.parang nakauwe na rin ako ulit dahil sa pag bisita mo sa tuguegarao.lalo na sa bunton bridge..2tumbs up ako sayo.talagang nalibang at naaliw ako sa video mo...god bless brod..para sa akin...ikaw ay pilipino...
Land slide is just a norm in that area of cordillera, now you witness how is it done to open through bayanihan. More power I wish through your video somebody would volunteer to cement the whole mountain so landslide will be over😀😀. Keep safe always . Thanks for that great adventure you have had in the mountain of cordillera. Super apir.
😁😁😂😂... To cement the whole mountain? What would be the outcome?😁😁😁...
Precious balitok...😂😂😂 crack me up on cement comment. lol! thanks!
Hahaha a cement mountain . I imagine what its looklike
Kulas i got to hand it to you..You have the ultimate adventurous spirit i have ever known in a person..To ride that little scooter all that distance and in the most appalling conditions..no way would i attempt that without having at least my trail motorbike with me thats built for those conditions..God bless you
I'm falling in love with nature by watching all your vlog kyle, thank you so much by watching i am able explore all stunning tourist spot in my own country wherein i cant afford...
Kyle, you are sooo Filipino, not becoming. You are one. I started crying watching the beauty of my country. In the 70's everyone wanted to leave for a better life but when you get as old as me, I regret leaving. I'm an old hippie, I can live in the barrios.
We dont have mass flooding here in the Cordilleras but we have to deal with landslide every rainy season, and yeah bayanihan is very much alive in our region thick and thin bayanihan everywhere.
I really like you... you are always optimistic in life... you made it through halsema highway. Some people or foreigners might be complaining if they will go trough that situation but you handle it well. From cordillera here. Spread positive vibes more...
You Already Filipino Citizen Kulas! Because long years you steady in THE PHILIPPINES! Start to Mindanao and follow Visayas and Luzon! LUZVIMINDA .. i have Classmate named LUZVIMINDA ( Luzon Visayas Mindanao) THen her last name was Pacific!! So Cool and Long Sakop the Pacific and Philippines name !!! Kulas i am so proud in you!
Kulas you're now a certified mountaineer!🤠👍👊✊👌 what an epic raw adventure, I felt sad watching you go. Do take care & be well may God be with you always.
The Cordillera Vlog ... best one so far.
I tremendously enjoyed your journey. I was with you in all those mountains and rivers and cliffs, ravines and gorges that I love to watch back in college when I was in Baguio. But the drone's footages were magnificent. It gave a different view from the limited access my camera can take way back when the drone was only a concept or is used only in stealth operations by the US and Israeli military. It was like being there myself on the mountain tops and the different angle it provided, wow! Thank you for covering the Cordilleras. Perhaps now you have seen the difference in culture between the mountain people in the North and the island and sea people from the South.
Wow.... You're always welcome here in our simple place sir kulas... Tinoc...
Kyle thank you for bringing us back home in spirit, in a way you took us with you in your travel adventure. Many of us who works here abroad to support our family there back home always awaits your vlog updates. Im a filipino caregiver here in Jerusalem and im from the cordillera so i say thank you for giving us comfort by featuring our home snd our people. We are happy you are okey kyle after surviving that landslide. God bless you, stay safe❤️
So much respect comes your way,Kulas..Thank you for the education and for everything that is you..What a wonderful world...
Thank you too for all the videos...blessings!
The mountains are beautiful but could be treacherous. Glad that you Kulas are safe and sound. God Bless!
Kulas your so humble to reached out, experienced, feel, and interact what is life in the remote areas of philippines, though scary and dangerous u overcome it.. salute u!
I'm from Baguio and I've only been to Bontoc and Sagada. It was awesome being able to join your adventure even through just the vlog. I appreciate how you appreciate the filipino culture. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Sa uulitin n nman Kulas. Apir.
Power on. Thanks for the amazing Cordilleran journey. See you around Kyle.
Yes kulas. You love travelling and immersing yourself around the Philippines. You enjoy it and its amazing how you connect with us pinoys. Never seen any foreigner like you who saw the country that much. We have learned to love you as our own. But i still believe your hashtag "becoming filipino" is deceiving.
...long live the IFUGAOS!!!....maraming Salamat po Kulas!!! I did enjoy your Cordillera travellog…!!! Great One.
Next time you plan of coming back to the north please visit Bokod and Kabayan (Benguet) to see Ambuklao dam, Sulfur srping, Mossy forrest, Mount pulag, Kabayan mummies, 4 lakes of Kabayan, and many more.
The Igorots in action😊👍
Indigenous people of the Cordilleras😉
#ProudIgorot
2900km... wow.. power on!. so inspiring.. tnx kulas😊
.watching while reading comments......helow qaqaet ni kalanguya ..😊😊
Thank you kulas for a very great adventure in Cordillera!🇵🇭
You've done what the rest of us can only dream of. You always show your appreciation for the people you met with kindness, respect and humility. It takes a true journeyman like you to know that it is the people in your path that also makes the journey what it is. Your positivity and faith in life fueled you through this journey. So awesome, Kulas! Thank you ...
Congrats brad for a job well done. Everything that happened in your Cordilleras trip is an eye opening to most of us locals and Filipinos. Lahat ng napanuod at nasaksihan namin ay maganda at sigurado namang marami kaming natutunan. Power-On brad!!! Power-On...
Kulas you deserve a billion subscribers
Thank u brad for showcasing #north especially those ppl in the mountain BIG well done 👍👍👍 hope to see u again for the part2 with the north 🤙
Hello, Kulas... i love your shirt's print "WHEN IN DOUBT, TRAVEL TO THE PHILIPPINES".. Thanks for featuring the Philippines in your VLOGS.. By watching it, I feel like I have traveled with you and experience the beauty of those places in my country that I have not gone to, yet :) Your VLOGS are very educational :) Once again, THANK YOU :)
Epic Kulas, This trip has to be one of the best I have ever watched, total respect Bro Thank you ever so much, for now Power Off!!! : @ )
It was really scary and intense what i watched. Great things about pilipinos, they come together, helped each each other as one when there's incident like this kind. Landslide is always a problem in the mountains like where you are and its a big burden to them whom always drive thru that road every single day. Especially trucks loads of their produce or whatever just to transport it from point A to point B....! I really admired your courage to trekk and experience this things as a traveller. You are indeed a true warrior...!
Keep safe Kulas....! God be with you.
We People of Cordillera support and Love you sir kyle aka kulas..God Bless every journey of your life... U will Come back to Cordillera Again.
Sad to know this is your last Cordillera vlog,everyone will miss you scootering in the mountain of the Cordilleras..But thank you for doing it.I'm from the Cordilleras,but never been to those incredible places..Good luck to your next adventure..Tired, but more power to you..take care always..
Man you have balls of steel riding up the mountains and the really bad roads on a tiny scooter instead of a dual-sport. I salute you!
Hey, that green covering the water where you washed your feet is i guess a water crest, we simply saute with garlic and onion and whallaa😉 tummy filled
im a mountain child.. I find peace and happiness in the mountains.. the mountain province is one big potential for economic sustainability and tourism and it is very much underrated.. alot of the people would go to the islands and beaches because that's what philippines is commonly known but philippines also has mountain cultures, although not as majestic as switzerland or japan have with mt.materhorn or mt.tsukuba, it is still inherrently filipino.. for instance alot of rare endemic filipino plants can only be found in the mountains, and some of them can have the potential to cure or treat hard to cure illnesses like cancer
Thanks kulas for letting me travel w/ u from day 1 u start to travel the CORDILLERA'S i kind a gelous and miss my hometown cause ur thier and im here @ ur home Canada,Ont. Thanks buds and looking forward to another videos😊😊😊
i watched the whole cordillera trip kulas. much respect to you.. mabuhay ka!!
Take care always kulas...i love all your vlogs..
