Yes Velvet, it's me. I am fortunate enough to have a muso friend who has a studio on his farm in Aust/NSW and we write songs & make music when I go back to Aust. It makes me happy to hear that you like this brief jingle/song I created. I also wrote & sung the Live Your Dreams song in previous YT series. 🧡
Volcanoes have been acting up here in PH lately Sir Keith. I'm sure you've heard of Mount Kanlaon's huge eruption in Negros. And Taal is showing a lot of unrest too. I wonder if all this is related also to Climate Change. 2024, and even this January 2025, has been abnormally hot. I am really hoping and praying things will normalize again in the coming months weather-wise. 🙏
Yes, not just Phil but also globally volcanoes are very very active right now. Actually, I visited Taal back in April last year and managed to hike towards the crater. I know Taal has a history of serious eruptions but the locals said it was safe to visit the island. I was making another vid for my volcano vlogging series but couldnt finish or publish it. Less than 36hrs of my visit to Taal it errupted (steam) so I now realise volcano vlogging is not a good idea. Take care and stay well away from active volcanoes.
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 Have you seen footages of the 2020 Taal volcano eruption Sir Keith? There was one that looked really terrifying with the large column of black smoke with lightning bolts flashing all around it. ⚡⚡⚡ So yes, it's dangerous to vlog very active volcanoes esp. ones that had just recently erupted.
Yes Resty and it nearly killed me. I was very under prepared for this climb so I payed the price with very sore legs. Physically, there's not many climbs in Phil harder than this one. But I thoroughly enjoyed it.
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 i know you like vlogging with natures, how about MOUNT PULAG its located LUZON maybe close to BAGUIO but im not sure and if so, maybe meet WHANG OD too shes an oldest tattoo artist and using traditional stuff …. Im glad you are UP and GOING again …
Yes it's great to be in a position to kick off another series. This one should be significantly more challenging than previous series and will involve plenty of travel. I hope my watchers are entertained and I also pick up more followers. Thanks for watching & commenting
Was wondering why there are no feeds from your channel until i saw your hospital episode. Saw this current one which also means you’re okay! Take it easy bro!
Hello Renato, since I'm not into the techniques behind YT feeds I tend not to focus on these sort of items. As for the timeline between my heart vids and this next (volcano) series let me say 3 years has passed. I felt it now the right time followers/watchers knew the main trigger for creating my (live your dreams) channel. I hope it was clear in my heart vids that the problem occurred back in 2021 and recovery has well and truly occurred. Thanks for your interesting comment.
I only watched the earlier part of your heart video then switched to Apo video because i hate seeing people in pain but i did know now it happened in 2021 after i did watch it again. Keep on grinding and welcome back 😊
Great Mount Apo vlogg. New subscriber here. Did you join a hiking group with a travel coordinator? Or just by yourself? May I know how much did you pay for the hiking please? I’m planning to hike Mount Apo that’s why I asked. Any other information will greatly appreciate, like where did you stay in Davao, etc. Thank you.
Sorry for the delayed response Lou-. I'm taking a break from vlogging and not looking at my channel everyday. I'm happy you enjoyed the vid and also subscribed to my channel, thanks. I can say that I've always enjoyed hiking particularly in my country but never joined a hiking group. On Face Book I found a guide who does Mt Apo climbs and let me say there's numberous good guides who can take u up the mountain. I highly advise you work hard on your fitness and hill climbing strength cause you'll need it to conquer this peak. The cost will be around 5,000 peso and the trek will take 2 full days. I currently live in a subdivision in the southern part of Davao city (Puan). It's less than a two hour car trip from Davao to Kapatagan where I stayed. Tell.me if you need more info and I'll look for further comments from you.
More than nuts Kevin, they sounded very much like an electric circular saw or angle grinder. When I first started hearing them in the distance I thought someone was building a house or resort in the rain forest. Thanks for your comment.
All is well Dileep but I'm having a break from vlogging. I don't know when or if I will return because I'm involved in another project unrelated to UA-cam. I have shot another episode of volcano vlogging and am 50% through producing a video. It will take me a while to finish this new vid because I'm travelling to London to see my daughter then travelling back to Sydney to see family and friends before returning to The Philippines where I now live. Thanks for reaching out to me and I hope you are doing well/okay my friend.
I'm well/ok Shirley but decided to have a break from vlogging to do other things. I also have an issue with the 2nd volcano vlogging episode which could see me in trouble with authorities if I publish it. Vlogging volcanoes has a few restrictions which I'm finding difficult to overcome plus it can be very dangerous visiting active volcanoes. I'll try to get another episode published but I cant promise at the moment. Hope all is well in your life and you are pursuing those dreams.
I'm also finding the new series on volcanoes challenging to make mainly because I cant get close (as I want) to active volcanoes. These days authorities place 4-6km exclusion zones around any volcano which show signs of unrest. This makes it very hard to shoot good vids of any active volcano. I'm not sure if I can continue this series.
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 Absolutely, the risk definitely adds to the excitement and the sense of achievement when you reach the summit. Can't wait to see your adventure unfold.
Unfortunately I don't see myself continuing with this series Disdrix. I am addressing some health items right now and I'm also finding it hard to remain motivated. Also I recently visited Taal volcano (Philippines) and was permitted to go onto Taal island. Less than a day later after my departure the volcano experienced a large phreatic/steam erruption. I need to say volcano vlogging is very risky so I'm assessing whether or not it's worth risking my life to continue. Thanks so much for commenting
Omg is that you singing in the beginning song?? I love it! 🎉 Go Keith!

1st like is from me (your friend Dileep) Hope you will come back to Sri Lanka, so we can come across 😊
Thanks Dileep my most loyal follower. If you have any good volcanoes there I'll come over
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 in Sri Lanka we don’t have volcanoes
It's probably a good thing you don't have any volcanoes there because they can be dangerous and cause devastation.
Those cicadas are nuts!
More than nuts Kevin, they sounded very much like an electric circular saw or angle grinder. When I first started hearing them in the distance I thought someone was building a house or resort in the rain forest. Thanks for your comment.
Keith, I did not hear from you for a long time. Hope you are doing well.

Where are u Keith
Hi Nina, I needed to have a break from vlogging after 3 years travelling around

These days authorities place 4-6km exclusion zones around any volcano which show signs of unrest. This makes it very hard to shoot good vids of any active volcano.

This is the kind of adventure that makes life worth living.
It is too bad you can't camp up there.
True, but it can also take your life or get you badly injured
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 Absolutely, the risk definitely adds to the excitement and the sense of achievement when you reach the summit. Can't wait to see your adventure unfold.
There may be a significant delay before I get another episode of volcano vlogging uploaded.
@@keithdamant-liveyourdreams570 Any chance this will be soon? I miss you.
