    About Me:
    My bio is pretty random: In short, I am a professional singer/songwriter from Toronto, Canada who moved to Manila, Philippines which sorta became my Hollywood because my first UA-cam channel MIKEYBUSTOSVIDEOS grew popular due to Filipino comedy videos. Meanwhile, I'm also a big biology geek who is obsessed with ants, so I built an internationally operating ant business supported by another popular channel called ANTSCANADA, and well basically, today I travel and tour around the world doing what I love so I wanted to start this vlogging channel, in hopes to encourage you guys to follow your dreams no matter how random, by showing you what happened when I followed mine! You just never know where life will take you when you listen to the yearnings of your heart!

    Your mom is so much like my mom 😂. When she was visiting here in Australia, she fixed the garden, planted herbs, bought her own cleaning stuff, kept cleaning everything, prepared breakfast everyday, etc... She transformed my house here in Australia into a Filipino family house and left her vibe here.

    I'm living in the US and started following this channel since Ligaya and enjoy watching to learn the Filiipino culture, and enjoy the food & travel vids.
    I was raised in the US since I was 2 months. My parents are from Nicaragua,(dad) and Dominican Republic (mom). My mom spoke to us in Spanish and my father spoke to us in English. It got to the point where I spoke more English at home. However, as an adult I try to speak as much Spanish as I can (mostly to my coworkers) since my parents are deceased now. I also took Portuguese years ago and I have been taking french for over 3 years now so knowing other languages is an interest of mine

    I was born and raised in Singapore to a Filipino mom and a Chinese dad. I was raised to speak English because it was the common language in the country and at home. Mom didn't teach me Tagalog and my Dad didn't teach me Chinese well. So English is my main language. So thank you for speaking in English because I really enjoy the vlogs. Even now when I'm married, my husband also enjoy watching your vlogs with me from time to time.

    Hi Mike! I am a filipino and honestly I prefer your vlogs to be in english because I am learning new vocabularies while watching your vlogs at the same time 😄 what a lovely family and house you have ❤️ I am a 22 year old graduating student, and starting to look and prepare for my future life. I am in awe when I see the Mabuhay house, and I am really inspired to have a beautiful home like yours. From where I stand, I know I most likely will not be able to have something like that, but I will do my best to achieve my goal. I am really happy for you, and thank you, you inspire me to live and enjoy life as much as possible ❤️

      You can! When I was 26, I had no job (I was a singer with no gigs), I dropped out of university, and I was in loads of debt. I was invited by an older millionaire couple to join them at a chalet mansion by the lake that they owned, and as we sailed on their yaught I looked at their mansion in awe and said "Man, I could never have this!" to which the husband said "Yes, you can!" He believed in me even if I couldn't see any possible way to achieve it back then. So, from where I stand today, to you I also say "Yes, you can!"

    Since your side entrance is your defacto main entrance, you should probably consider putting up a pergola that covers the path from the doorway to the driveway so that when there's heavy rain you can walk without getting too wet, in fact you might as well integrate the pergola into a mini carport that covers the middle section of your driveway so that you don't need to worry about the rain like you did in this vlog.

    I am a Filipino, migrated to Australia, when my kids were little, I taught them how to speak Tagalog but when they started school, they slowly forgot to speak the language. My children are now grown-ups, all finished University and now again trying to learn Tagalog.
    You have an international audience, and English is a universal language, the only language that everyone, wherever they are/live they can understand the English language. Filipinos are good in English language, it is actually considered our second language. I don't see anything wrong about you speaking English in your Vlogs. The most important thing is you were brought up by your parents with the good Filipino values. Napakabuti mong anak. Another thing I admire about you is you have high regards about the great skills of the Filipino designers. Your house and the furnitures you put inside it is a living testament to it. Keep up the good work
    I love your house. It's beautiful. It is my kind of Architecture.❤❤❤

    I can tell your parents are super proud of you. You have your mom's inquisitive or curiosity mind and loves to comment on everything, don't get offended. I am not surprised if she'll fill all your drawers and cabinets with things. That's our "gigil" state of mind. We don't like to see them empty. Lol.

    I live in the USA in the state of Montana. I’m so happy that your parents are enjoying your new home and I’m glad that I’m not the only one whose Momma comes to visit and buys out the local stores of bulk food and cleaning supplies! LOL When your bahay-kubo is finished you and TJ really should put up a telescope to see the stars at night (the roof deck would be great but I’m guessing that the deck without all of the lighting around would be the best place to put one. Awesome and amazing that so much has been done in the last few months. I think having RJ in charge of the construction team has made the workers a lot more organized so they perform their tasks a bit faster!
    Thanks so much for sharing. Much love and positive vibes from Montana. ✨💖✨

    Hello Bustos family, you asked us to tell where we listen from. I am from the Midwest USA. My grandparents talked low German to each other but not so much to their kids and grandkids. So now as an older adult I am learning German and one of my sons too. We want to be better connected to our heritage. You ask about the Christmas tree. We leave ours up at least until the 12th day of Christmas which is called epiphany, January 6th. Epiphany celebrates the coming of the wise men. I agree with your mom about this steps. There needs to be enough room for a person's whole shoe and a little more to fit on the top of the step. You asked about something else too but I forget now what it was. So glad to see you enjoying your family visit. Take care God bless Gloria 🐂

You promote love, humor, kindness and tolerance!Keep up the great work!! Kudos to your parents who raised such an awesome human!!❤

    I am a Filipino in San Francisco with an adult son. We speak English at home. I have tried to expose him to the Filipino language, and even left him alone with my family who lives in Manila…but unfortunately his cousins talked to him in English. We hang with other Pinoy families (my HS classmates) and unfortunately they all converse in English. I am sympathetic to your predicament…

    Subscribed after watching your Australia and Parents blog, you are so appreciative of everything and "no negative" comments on anything, very family oriented and I love how you slowly develop your home giving me ideas to my new home 😍 I wish to have home in Philippines when I go back to settle.

    Your mom reminds me so much of my mom! Treasure your mommy and dad as much as you can 💗 Dramas are normal but they fade from our memory when they're gone. - I sure miss my mom! My dad had the same experience with languages and his parents not teaching their language. You can still learn. hehe - I'm going to see "Almost Paradise" next on Prime ... 😉

    Hi Mikey and RJ!
    Thanks for asking...
    I am from California. I am half Filipino, my mother is Caucasian. My parents separated when I was very young, and I never learned to speak Filipino/Tagalog. I really love your channel and your content . It actually helps me familiarize myself more with Filipino culture. I would love to visit the Philippines one day and experience things in person, but for now, I will enjoy it through you and your family!

  • @clearwaterbeachhomesearchm5957

    Thank God for your mom.

    I'm from California. My mother (89) is Japanese from Nara. SAME THING. She came here because my dad met her during the war. He was in the Army. She never taught me and my three sisters Japanese! Unbelievable! Learning later in life is SO hard. Seeing your mom loving your pups is so adorable! I'd love to see her with Britney and Rizal.

    Watching from NJ and our son at 14 is just learning to speak Tagalog. Majority of Filipinos speak English anyway so that’s fine that you speak it in your vlogs. I love that you’re in tune with your Filipino roots. Congrats on your new amazing home.

  • @maryjones4299
    @maryjones4299 Рік тому +2

    I can relate. I was born in Manila and Tagalog was my native language until my family moved to the States when I was 9yrs old. We had to learn English and it was the only language spoken in our household. As an adult, I can understand some words. I always feel ashamed and embarrassed when I’m around other Filipinos because I can’t carry a conversation. So yes Mikey, I really appreciate your blogs in English, but a little mix of Filipino/Tagalog would be great too since I’m trying to learn. I can’t wait for my trip to the Philippines this June and learned so much from your blogs of different places to see.

    Hi Mike! Happy new year! To be honest, I really envy you because of your relationship with your parents. With me it was a different story. And even though at the back of your mind you want things to be like your situation, unfortunately I've already lost my parents way back 1995. So it's also a factor I watch your vlogs because I wish I could have had that kind of relationship with my parents.

    I'm a Filipina-Canadian from Tarlac, Philippines who moved to Ontario, Canada at age 10. I understand Tagalog but can't speak it fluently but there's potential for me to be fluent if I listen to people speaking in it more consistently.

  • @millieatcentralcagarden9764

    I am exactly the same. I was born in the PI but raised in the US since 11 months. It was important for my parents to have us learn English to be able to get along with the kids at school. My parents spoke Tagalog & Ilocano at home but spoke english to the kids. Lucky I understand but can't speak it. I wish my parents made me learn to speak it. Great to be bilingual.
