Hey Scottie. Enjoyed our conversation at “The Social” in Ayala. Happy to hear that you have decided not to give up channel completely. Enjoy your time in Thailand.
Thanks for checking in Scotty. Always love your videos. You always tell a good story. It's funny I was driving the other day thinking about your channel and here you are again. It's always good that you check in so all your subscribers know that you're okay. Will you be traveling to Thailand soon? Anyways take care.
You’re an Original Content Creator. A rare breed that doesn’t screen scrape other people’s content. I missed your videos, but I understand your burned out. Good luck, and safe travels dude.
@ I do 3-4 months overseas, and same amount in the US. Unfortunately I took a contract job again to pass my holiday time and earn a little superfluous holiday money and may get jammed up in contractual project schedules. I estimate returning to the philippines July 2025.
Your number one Aussie fan here mate. Get some rest and look after yourself. Your videos have brought me so much joy as I’m going through crap, you made me smile often. Coming over in February 😊.
I'll never forget about 25 years ago, 6 months after I first arrived in the Visayas and Mindanao I wanted to travel to new places all over the country and it struck me, all I saw was more coconut trees and banana trees, scene after scene, after scene. That's when I realised that I was here for my fiancé and not the country. The opportunity to travel to Asia was the key to enjoying the Philippines.
We are with you on your travels towards happiness. It is a search that I know will end in success. Stay strong and steadfast." The point of the journey is not to arrive". Glad you are OK !!
Scottie, what about settling in or around Bagiuo? Seems like since you're from Canada, the heat of the rest of the country would be an issue for you. I'm from Florida, and I hated the heat and humidity, so I moved to Colorado, but I keep looking at the weather in Bagiuo compared to the rest of the country, and it's generally about 10 degrees cooler there, so that's do-able. Have you had any experience with the babaroonies there?

We had our hired help, a Housekeeper and Groundsman involved in an accident that killed trycad riders in separate incidents. What we learned was your liability increases with the worth and status and importsnce of the person you hit or kill. In our workers case the amounts were about 200,000 to 250,000 pesos for restitution but it was bargained down to 70,000 and 100,000 pesos because going to court was going to take a few years to resolve. To save time the amounts were reduced.
Hey Scotty! Love the rants. I have been following you for quite a while now. I think you are a bit of a nomad at heart. I think you taking a break from the Philly Willy for a while is a good idea. It will remind you that the Philly Willy is your true home. I’m sorry to hear about the bike but you are right. I remember being really excited to see all the small towns you talked about but it really didn’t work out that way. Stay safe and have fun on your travels.
Scotty: As a longtime scooter/motorbike driver, I have some suggestions: get a bike with the back box, perhaps a smaller one, and one the girl can use as a backrest. You'll appreciate it when you have to carry supplies/gear. Do use a helmet, and one with a faceshield. If not pants and long sleeve shirt, wear elbow and knee pads. You may look like a total geek, but they will help protect you in an accident. I know because I hit a deer in Canada last year, and the gear limited the damage to my body.
@ hope your next chapter elsewhere in the world might help improve that thought, as you have definitely shown resilience above and beyond what most can manage in the you tube world, and with 60,000 subs; it’s is a pretty impressive number to consider how many do wish u well. 👍
Great video again. Good choice to have sold your bike: minimalism is the best way to travel light and live hassle free. Thank you for your stories full of mindful reflections.
I wish they had more pride in cleanliness, and not litter their trash where they live or at all for that matter. On that dirt path/tight dirt road at segment 15:47 You were walking on.
@@kyleesteban467 I am going to visit my older brother in Chang Mai. He has lived in Thailand for a long time teaching English. I will visit Vietnam too. I'll see where I will settle....
@@ovlov245 That is awesome. I hope You find Your tranquillity. If You are single, find Your parallel. Because we all know what we want in our life for the rest of our life. There is no such thing as 50/50 in a relationship. It must be 100%/100%.
Agree, agree, agree! I love variety and am a SE Asian slow traveler. So many great choices in SE Asia in every way. I’m not a Phils guy. Life is so much easier elsewhere in SE Asia. I prefer low hanging fruit. There are my favorites in the Phils but only for visits. Dating is plentiful all over SE Asia. I never used dating sites. I love cultural exploration, healthy delicious food, more emotional stability, and limitless beauty. Great to hear you leaving the Phils. There are so many better options. I ❤️the music in your vids
I hear you Scotty boy. I hit the Philippines hard, from 2014-2020 but my mind shifted. Started to crave a more comfortable and easy lifestyle based location. I found it in Thailand. I still enjoy trips to Philippines and back to US but nothing beats Thailand
The externals are a big part of whether I fall in love with a woman. So being single mother means I would never fall for her. Best wishes on the new adventures and please keep vlogging them.
Nice vid! I can always relate. Im feeling the same about choosing Manila. I love the options. And the climbing gyms. Relationships just don't work with all the moving around. In Cebu now but heading out soon.
I was your compatriot who kept bugging you to go to Malabalay, but for selfish reasons. I had only been through it on the bus from Davao to CDO and I was really keen on getting more info, so I was hopeful that you would do a video on it and grateful you did. I finally got there myself last January for an overnight stay. I'm married to a Pinay and we have property in both Davao and Samal. We had been to CDO and I found both CDO and Davao to be way too hot and dirty for a Canuck. The views on the drive up the BUDA highway were spectacular, the weather nice and cool, and the air refreshingly clean. The municipal government of Malabalay have done a great job in keeping it clean and the people there obviously have a lot of civic pride to keep it clean. No 2 stroke motorbikes spewing black smoke. They also have a University there, BUKSU (Bukidnon State University) and I love University towns for education , as I'm always studying and ummm... never mind, I'm married. I can buy land anywhere in the Phils because my daughter was born in Bislig and i just put it in her name. She gets everything when i die anyhow, so no loss. I am still thinking of buying a lot in Malabalay because it's still cheap, unlike say Dumaguete, or Valencia, Negros. It has a kind of British Columbia feel to it too. The surrounding region is a favourite for hikers, but I have a hunch the only interest you have in hiking is hiking up skirts. One of the things you perhaps haven't discovered is that having someone you know living in these places to show you around and make introductions is quite important too. You know the old saying "Home is where the heart is". Don't discount the great importance of having clusters of freinds in these places as it really makes a big difference as to what you think of a place and how quickly and thoroughly you settle in. Cheers.
@@SmeeUncleJoe Hej Uncle Joe. I wish to go there for a longer stay as well to help me acclimatise. I found Scott's video really got me interested! Please give us updates man. The Uni towns have lots to see.
@@ovlov245 Well it's not just Malabalay, but the BUDA (Bukidnon-Davao) highway is all stunning. Nice cool air. As far as cities, there is also Manolo Fortich and Valencia too up in that area. Seems every city has a University. There are probably 80,000 Valencias in the Philippines, so don't get confused. Duterte was really hot on developing the area. As far as negatives, you want to stay on your side of the fence. Just west of there is where the trouble starts with islamic terrorist groups. Scotty got warned when he was tresspassing into their range. You may not. You are also a long way from the ocean and the closest beach is in CDO which, is a badly polluted ... I won't say it. Since west is a no go zone and north is really messed up for pollution, you'd have to go to CDO and then head east, so maybe 4 hours drive before you get decent ocean for swimming.
as someone who lives in the philippines and is american i can answer this question " its no ones bussiness" . there is too many judgemental people on social media and also why should anyone share there personal life on youtube ? there is also many filipinas that will think a man is a F-boy if they see hes met more then 1 woman and also make rude judgemental comments which then make other filipinas nervous to meet a man. there is many reasons to keep your personal love life off of social media if you not married to a woman . if you single then nothing wrong with keeping life secret , filipinas are very secretive about there love life . ive lived in the philippines for 14yrs and regular guy is doing the right thing by just focusing on his content and not sharing his love life if he has one or not .
Scottie, you can walk around and lay voice over now which is great. You can also do the same thing putting a go pro on top of your helmet and driving a bike, making stops here and there etc. It can even be a mix of live content with audio mixed with voice over afterwards like this great video.
I used to be pro abortion when is was young and stupid. When i had my own children i started thinking differently and had a xomplete xhange of heart. I also agree with you Scotty in that it was their "choice" to be stupid and getting pregnant in the first place. The way i see it is when the 23 chromosomes of the man joins the 23 chromosomes of the woman, there are 46 chromosomes, and that is a human being. Call it what you want, but you can't change that fact. To terminate that human is to commit murder of a defenseless human. That is murder of the "worst" degree.
In Philippines primarily to find "the one" because that is the only thing that can come anywhere near to justifying living in such poverty filth ignorance apathy and corruption and after so much money effort and time invested and walking away still alone. My experience was the same. So much talk about plenty of eligible women all over the country waiting for a decent man to come along doesn't seem to be the reality now does it
I recently got a Bergman 125. Got is from an expat friend, and just took over the last 6 months payments. I really like it over tje Honda and Yamaha counterparts as it has a slightly longer wheelbase, big wide soft seat, forward sloped footrests, and even a kickstart if needed.
Hi Scotty, i have just discovered your channel and really enjoyed binge watching your adventures. Around 20 years ago i spent about 11/2 years in Philly, including several months in Palawan (a beautiful but sketchy place at times). I concur with all you have experienced both good and "not so good" . Do you know there is a lot of Korean owned school teaching English to Korean adults in Manila that would be very keen to employ you ( they do ask that you dont screw the students though😅). Just a suggestion if you end up back in Manila. Im looking forrward to you future posts mate. Best wishes from Australia
12:52 -- I get your point about living in Metro Manila. I've done so going on 12 years. It is similar to living in the ATL (Atlanta, Georgia). It's a sprawled out city encompassing other cities, easily gotten to whether drive yourself or public transportation. You want night life? It's there. You want cosmopolitan women? They're there. You want provincial women? They're there. You want parks? They're there. You want eateries and/or fine dining? It's there. I can shop, bank, handle medical needs all within 2-3 kilometers. What more can someone want? If I have a need to do the country thing, which never lasts more than a day, then hop in the car and go to scratch the itch. I'm a city boy, born in Cleveland, adult life spent in New York, so the appeal would be, to me, to be exactly where I am now. Mandaluyong and loving it.
Scotty boy, I think somehow you've mistakenly got the impression that most of your subs want to see you constantly traveling, but actually what most of us want to see is you finding a way and a place to be happy and enjoy life in the Filly Willy, preferably with a hot babe on your arm. What's the point of the travel and hotels and restaurants if your usually alone and unhappy? We're all waiting for a happy conclusion to your adventures but it doesn't seem to come. So I think i speak for many other subs when i say what we really want is to see you happy and enjoying life in the Filly Willy, and that would actually inspire a lot of other people to go there but for now I watch your vids and i'm like well it's entertaining but that's not an appealing lifestyle to me at all, and it doesn't even seem to be making you happy.
Missed you buddy! Glad to see you back. I have a Suzuki Bergman 400. Its perfect for highway and city and great on gas here in the US. I like the extra power. I had a 125, I didn't like taking it on the highway. Of course they may not have highways like they do over here in most places.
When it comes to big life decisions, I’ve often said of my motivation or lack of it, “I really want to want to.” So while I academically calculated what would be the smartest or best move to make, I still didn’t sincerely desire it. I’m still single, 55 years old and I have a dazzling work resume that people tell me to write a book about. I’m now sincerely desirous of a warm, monogamous relationship with the Filipina I’ve been video calling daily for 1.5 years. But until lately, there have been many times I had calculated that I should want something like this, but I didn’t feel it deep down. I think you’re going through this. Be honest to yourself and the girls, having fun doesn’t necessitate deceit. Good luck!
I went to Malaysia after philippines it was so much better in Malaysia like instant upgade higher standards of living and slightly cheaper than philippines
@ericreifschneider1467 ladies there will be slightly older and well educated, only downside liquor more pricy except for Penanag coz no tax there Also there are many legal and illegal filipinas among other foreign asian workers 😄
Go Scotty! It’s excellent that you’re critic proof and just giving us this tremendous story I was going to ask a question but if your busy Scotty just live your life man enjoy!
Scotty...Slow down, go to the beach and relax. You got dealt a shitty hand with your ex. Believe me I live next-door to mine so I could be here for my sons. I gave up starting a new life and have been alone because of this. You're doing great and it seems like you're still not keen on the settling down. What's the phase...In your own time. God bless you Scott and thanks a million for your time and information. I pray you find your dream girl in the province. That girl with the fat ass and d-cup that absolutely worships you.
There’s another reason to choose Manila. You can meet a girl from the province that left her home to work in that area. At least you know that she is willing to move out of the province for work…and for love.
Hi Scotte. Best of luck to wherever the road takes you. I very much enjoyed your travel stories and more. If you need a break you need a break. Make the best of it.
Great video Scotty! There’s a lot to digest once you consider so many things about the Philippines. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully you’ll be around for abit or be back in Mindanao eventually. I’m in Halifax at the moment. I think I brought rainy season here. lol I’ve seen 15 mins of sun in the past 2 weeks bro! Got a couple jobs to do in Canada then in Feb fly back to Davao. All the best! 🍻 J
Your vids are well put tougher ,and you can bend an ear with minimal squelch 😃. Meaning your easy to listen to . I know life in the Philippines can be a bit ruff sometimes. The people there are nice , many nice girls there, but many scammers also . Yes..Timing in life is everything! Thank you fir your vids ,and having an open mind about life there.🤙🏽
It's been fun watching you basically live out your dream. Leaving Korea, getting back to PH. Traveling most of the country. I suspect the whole experience has lived up to your expectations even with the bumps in the proverbial road (and the real ones). Also watching you find what works in your vids, realize what your audience likes and adjust accordingly has been interesting to watch. I look forward to seeing you travel and discover other places and maybe get back to PH eventually. Cheers from 🇨🇦
If you listen to yourself carefully, you'll realize that it's not a real adult talking. Shooting stuff like that out into the world doesn't show inner maturity. Ask your psychologist why you're not living your life with commitment. The proof will be the next time you change countries. You can't seriously start a family in your current state. You have to change yourself to bring this kind of responsibility into your life. Good luck - on your journey...
Nasugbu in Batangas (104 km/2 .5 hours on a good day), Laiya in Batangas (132 km/2.5 hours), Bagac in Bataan (194 km/3.5 hours). Your best bet (without need to fly) is Batangas. There’s also Mabini in Batangas (122 km/2 hours) for diving. Baler for surfing (285 km/5.5 hours). San Juan in La Union (293 km/5 hours) for surfing.
@@tonyp2601 Yes That is one of many issues with Manila for me. I need a beach near by. The closest beaches to manila are hours away. I lived in an Ocean front house for a while in La Union. It was a nice place to live but to remote. All the beach towns in the Philippines lack the amenities that a big city offer. I wound up moving to Jomtein (Pattaya) Thailand. It is great. It offers both beach living on (near) a city that offers life's amenities that I want. With no "SORRY SIR OUT OF STOCK" haha. For quailty of life the Philippines can not compete with Thialand.
Hey man, it was awesome meeting you at Phillies! Thanks for the tips on how to get to my hotel in Pasay. 100% agree about slum girls... gonna wife one up one day 🤞. See you again once I get back to Thailand.
Nice Scotty boi ! Keep up the good work. Need more vids , getting cold here in north east us .. need some vids to watch while the snow falls . Bet ya dont miss that crap ,, Stay well
Why was I not surprised..my city will be and I thought 'Manila'.. Yes, because you're not done with the Phils..You're probably going to rent a condo or a townhouse in Pasig Good decision!
Fantastic Scotty! A-1 video for details, especially about the bike. I'm a good 50lbs heavier. What bikes should I be checking out? I'm new to bikes. Thanks
Scott that is the same thing when I told you that I am from Seychelles and would like to move to a big city in the Philippines. You say Seychelles is beautiful but it is boring my friend. I am in for my planning to move to Makati. From there I can move to every spot I want in South East Asia.
I'm a minute and a half in and I totally get it. I've been here 4 months and I need a break. I'm heading to Thailand and Vietnam for 5-6 months on December 1st.
I like your channel. I was on an international dating site for one week and my mailbox was full, Philippines only. Ended up with a 27 year old Filipina, 4 weeks FaceTime then flew out to see her . I was lucky it all worked out. She’s a wonderful woman. I did the same before in Columbia and Chile. By the way don’t pass up Bacolod. I saw one comment or saying that he puts his phone number on a very simple business card and hands it to the girls in the shops or in the shopping mall stores and he gets a lot of replies. I thought that was a smart idea for the Philippines. So true about the City Girls province girls, and poor girls. My girl is a province girl slippers shorts T-shirt. She’s ready to go and she looks absolutely beautiful.. if you’re just visiting for a month, you should recommend a rental Toyota Vos is $27 a day. I understand the economy of a bike, but I am just terrified of getting into an accident in the Philippines. There is no ambulance. There is nothing.
So good to see the Scooty Boy again, but the vids are done so quickly. I hate to admit it, but I think you and Big World Cinema are in for a collision course in Manila! Who knows, it might work out well!!!!
Wow. What a story. "Be careful. You're going to end up pregnant and then he'll leave you." Low and behold a month later and the prophecy comes true. So predictable it's sad.
Hi Scotty …wishing you all the best in your travels. Eventually you will probably (maybe) decide to settle down. Stay safe and keep posting your travel vids wherever you may be.
Why? Do you prefer overpriced crowded and polluted cities? It's one of the most densely populated cities in the world where you will be more packed than sardines.
Good luck with all your endeavors. You're an awesome creator. 😊
Thanks, scotty Boy, for coming back and entertaining us.

Scotty got warned when he was tresspassing into their range. You may not. You are also a long way from the ocean and the closest beach is in CDO which, is a badly polluted ... I won't say it. Since west is a no go zone and north is really messed up for pollution, you'd have to go to CDO and then head east, so maybe 4 hours drive before you get decent ocean for swimming.
Why even get a girl friend when companionship is so cheep . Less drama for you if you ask me.
Exactly
Rule # 1; Never Apologize - It's Your time , your - life !
Thanks for the ' local - updates ' regardless , Glad you're 0K 🥳👍
I think you just like saying 'Malaybalay'...
haha yeah but im sick of typing it on on text
as someone who lives in the philippines and is american i can answer this question " its no ones bussiness" . there is too many judgemental people on social media and also why should anyone share there personal life on youtube ? there is also many filipinas that will think a man is a F-boy if they see hes met more then 1 woman and also make rude judgemental comments which then make other filipinas nervous to meet a man. there is many reasons to keep your personal love life off of social media if you not married to a woman . if you single then nothing wrong with keeping life secret , filipinas are very secretive about there love life . ive lived in the philippines for 14yrs and regular guy is doing the right thing by just focusing on his content and not sharing his love life if he has one or not .
At last one of the few good analyses. By experience and genuine gentleness.
Scottie, you can walk around and lay voice over now which is great. You can also do the same thing putting a go pro on top of your helmet and driving a bike, making stops here and there etc. It can even be a mix of live content with audio mixed with voice over afterwards like this great video.
I used to be pro abortion when is was young and stupid. When i had my own children i started thinking differently and had a xomplete xhange of heart. I also agree with you Scotty in that it was their "choice" to be stupid and getting pregnant in the first place. The way i see it is when the 23 chromosomes of the man joins the 23 chromosomes of the woman, there are 46 chromosomes, and that is a human being. Call it what you want, but you can't change that fact. To terminate that human is to commit murder of a defenseless human. That is murder of the "worst" degree.
In Philippines primarily to find "the one" because that is the only thing that can come anywhere near to justifying living in such poverty filth ignorance apathy and corruption and after so much money effort and time invested and walking away still alone. My experience was the same. So much talk about plenty of eligible women all over the country waiting for a decent man to come along doesn't seem to be the reality now does it
Harsh. But recognizable. Most men won’t acknowledge
You are unique, a storyteller. a realist perspective.
People definitely don't understand timing. It's literally how I level up successfully every time.
I recently got a Bergman 125. Got is from an expat friend, and just took over the last 6 months payments. I really like it over tje Honda and Yamaha counterparts as it has a slightly longer wheelbase, big wide soft seat, forward sloped footrests, and even a kickstart if needed.
Hi Scotty, i have just discovered your channel and really enjoyed binge watching your adventures. Around 20 years ago i spent about 11/2 years in Philly, including several months in Palawan (a beautiful but sketchy place at times). I concur with all you have experienced both good and "not so good" .
Do you know there is a lot of Korean owned school teaching English to Korean adults in Manila that would be very keen to employ you ( they do ask that you dont screw the students though😅). Just a suggestion if you end up back in Manila.
Im looking forrward to you future posts mate.
Best wishes from Australia
12:52 -- I get your point about living in Metro Manila. I've done so going on 12 years. It is similar to living in the ATL (Atlanta, Georgia). It's a sprawled out city encompassing other cities, easily gotten to whether drive yourself or public transportation. You want night life? It's there. You want cosmopolitan women? They're there. You want provincial women? They're there. You want parks? They're there. You want eateries and/or fine dining? It's there. I can shop, bank, handle medical needs all within 2-3 kilometers. What more can someone want? If I have a need to do the country thing, which never lasts more than a day, then hop in the car and go to scratch the itch. I'm a city boy, born in Cleveland, adult life spent in New York, so the appeal would be, to me, to be exactly where I am now. Mandaluyong and loving it.
Difficult to get range time. Especially on 100 m with large caliber rifles. Weird this subject rarely pops up even among the USA members
@@woutergijs5246 Who's talking about rifles? I surely did not.
BIG Manila (area).... Kinda a flip flop ? Seems I remember you wanting to live a quiet life in the province with your future girl.
Always thought you would settle in Angeles Scotty. It's such a cultural hub.
Scotty boy, I think somehow you've mistakenly got the impression that most of your subs want to see you constantly traveling, but actually what most of us want to see is you finding a way and a place to be happy and enjoy life in the Filly Willy, preferably with a hot babe on your arm. What's the point of the travel and hotels and restaurants if your usually alone and unhappy?
We're all waiting for a happy conclusion to your adventures but it doesn't seem to come. So I think i speak for many other subs when i say what we really want is to see you happy and enjoying life in the Filly Willy, and that would actually inspire a lot of other people to go there but for now I watch your vids and i'm like well it's entertaining but that's not an appealing lifestyle to me at all, and it doesn't even seem to be making you happy.
Missed you buddy! Glad to see you back. I have a Suzuki Bergman 400. Its perfect for highway and city and great on gas here in the US. I like the extra power. I had a 125, I didn't like taking it on the highway. Of course they may not have highways like they do over here in most places.
When it comes to big life decisions, I’ve often said of my motivation or lack of it, “I really want to want to.” So while I academically calculated what would be the smartest or best move to make, I still didn’t sincerely desire it. I’m still single, 55 years old and I have a dazzling work resume that people tell me to write a book about. I’m now sincerely desirous of a warm, monogamous relationship with the Filipina I’ve been video calling daily for 1.5 years. But until lately, there have been many times I had calculated that I should want something like this, but I didn’t feel it deep down. I think you’re going through this. Be honest to yourself and the girls, having fun doesn’t necessitate deceit. Good luck!
you are such a bore, try the gay lifestyle, it might suit you better, do the math.
I went to Malaysia after philippines it was so much better in Malaysia like instant upgade higher standards of living and slightly cheaper than philippines
@@kristapsjakusenoks8724 how are the ladies there? Do they respond to foreigners like they do in the Philippines?
@ericreifschneider1467 ladies there will be slightly older and well educated, only downside liquor more pricy except for Penanag coz no tax there
Also there are many legal and illegal filipinas among other foreign asian workers 😄
Lots of beautiful women in Colombia Scotty!
ha yeah yesterday i talked to someone who got me a little interested in argentina
Argentina is the best place in South America. Everywhere else is overly gringo’d.
It’s been a nice run I really enjoyed the ride , because I learned a lot Thanks Scott!
Welcome back Scotty Boy, we missed you. Love your vids.
Keep the videos coming, I always enjoy them.
Go Scotty! It’s excellent that you’re critic proof and just giving us this tremendous story I was going to ask a question but if your busy Scotty just live your life man enjoy!
Great to see another vid from you Scotty 👍
Scotty...Slow down, go to the beach and relax. You got dealt a shitty hand with your ex. Believe me I live next-door to mine so I could be here for my sons. I gave up starting a new life and have been alone because of this. You're doing great and it seems like you're still not keen on the settling down. What's the phase...In your own time. God bless you Scott and thanks a million for your time and information. I pray you find your dream girl in the province. That girl with the fat ass and d-cup that absolutely worships you.
There’s another reason to choose Manila. You can meet a girl from the province that left her home to work in that area. At least you know that she is willing to move out of the province for work…and for love.
Hi Scotte. Best of luck to wherever the road takes you. I very much enjoyed your travel stories and more. If you need a break you need a break. Make the best of it.
Hi Scottie! They are supposed to be working on a metro train that runs from Man8la to Clark. About a 50 minute ride. Will be nice if it happens!
Wow he's back!
Oh make sure you Livestream from Soi Bukhao, Cheap Charlies to chicken to do it these days.
Hey Scotty, great vid again👋
Where are you gonna go?
probably thailand and vietnam, indonesia
I don't know that you have the right game for those places. You might want to try Cambodia
@@Regular_Guyphno Laos ?
@@woutergijs5246a bunch of tourists just died in Laos drinking.
@@rein3684yeah, my days of buying “ lao khaow” in a plastic bag are over. Not for me anymore. The Hangover Prequel 😅😅😅
Welcome back Scotty it’s good to see you, as always I love your videos. Take care humble guy😊.
Great video Scotty! There’s a lot to digest once you consider so many things about the Philippines. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully you’ll be around for abit or be back in Mindanao eventually. I’m in Halifax at the moment. I think I brought rainy season here. lol I’ve seen 15 mins of sun in the past 2 weeks bro! Got a couple jobs to do in Canada then in Feb fly back to Davao.
All the best! 🍻

Thanks! Always nice to see you back Scotty! Happy holidays to you!
Alana love you thank you!!! 😊
My favorite part of your channel are live from the bar, you chatting Your a Pioneer, Be Safe, God Bless
Glad your back.
Hillbily thanks man
Enjoy your travels kuya sir sana all
I forgive you.
For your absence.
seaweed much appreciated
Your vids are well put tougher ,and you can bend an ear with minimal squelch 😃. Meaning your easy to listen to . I know life in the Philippines can be a bit ruff sometimes. The people there are nice , many nice girls there, but many scammers also . Yes..Timing in life is everything!
Thank you fir your vids ,and having an open mind about life there.🤙🏽
Scotty, please do updates and keep your channel going !!!!!!!!!!!!
GOOD YOURE BACK SCOTTY ...
Yes a break is always good , but
I'm sure you'll be back to the philly willy within 2 months ... 😉
I stand with you. Keep going
It's been fun watching you basically live out your dream. Leaving Korea, getting back to PH. Traveling most of the country. I suspect the whole experience has lived up to your expectations even with the bumps in the proverbial road (and the real ones). Also watching you find what works in your vids, realize what your audience likes and adjust accordingly has been interesting to watch. I look forward to seeing you travel and discover other places and maybe get back to PH eventually. Cheers from 🇨🇦
For The Horde rawrrrrrrrrrrr.
If you listen to yourself carefully, you'll realize that it's not a real adult talking. Shooting stuff like that out into the world doesn't show inner maturity. Ask your psychologist why you're not living your life with commitment. The proof will be the next time you change countries. You can't seriously start a family in your current state. You have to change yourself to bring this kind of responsibility into your life. Good luck - on your journey...
Again: wrong analysis of Scottie. He is allergic to “ you must”.
Being mature doesn’t mean you must bend over and let society protrude your cavity
Maybe he just does not really want a family? why is being single a bad thing?
What a condescending comment “ask your psychologist…” everyone is on their own path in life. He’s not asking anyone here for advice.
💪🏻FINALLY POPPED A NEW VIDEO BRO! KEEP THE GRIND!💪🏻
yep wondered how you were doing!! Glad to see you back.
He has never been away 😅
I just arrived in manila yesterday. I need a quiet beach town to decompress for a bit. the smaller the better. Any ideas???
Nasugbu in Batangas (104 km/2 .5 hours on a good day), Laiya in Batangas (132 km/2.5 hours), Bagac in Bataan (194 km/3.5 hours). Your best bet (without need to fly) is Batangas. There’s also Mabini in Batangas (122 km/2 hours) for diving. Baler for surfing (285 km/5.5 hours). San Juan in La Union (293 km/5 hours) for surfing.
@@tonyp2601 Hey, thanks so much. Sounds like batangas is the place to be for some peace and quiet. I'll look into these.
@@tonyp2601 Yes That is one of many issues with Manila for me. I need a beach near by. The closest beaches to manila are hours away. I lived in an Ocean front house for a while in La Union. It was a nice place to live but to remote. All the beach towns in the Philippines lack the amenities that a big city offer. I wound up moving to Jomtein (Pattaya) Thailand. It is great. It offers both beach living on (near) a city that offers life's amenities that I want. With no "SORRY SIR OUT OF STOCK" haha. For quailty of life the Philippines can not compete with Thialand.
Hey man, it was awesome meeting you at Phillies! Thanks for the tips on how to get to my hotel in Pasay. 100% agree about slum girls... gonna wife one up one day 🤞. See you again once I get back to Thailand.
Nice Scotty boi !
Keep up the good work.
Need more vids , getting cold here in north east us .. need some vids to watch while the snow falls . Bet ya dont miss that crap ,,
Stay well
Why was I not surprised..my city will be and I thought 'Manila'..
Yes, because you're not done with the Phils..You're probably going to rent a condo or a townhouse in Pasig
Good decision!
Fantastic Scotty! A-1 video for details, especially about the bike. I'm a good 50lbs heavier. What bikes should I be checking out? I'm new to bikes. Thanks
Safe travels Scotty!! and good luck in everything that you do👍🤗
Scott that is the same thing when I told you that I am from Seychelles and would like to move to a big city in the Philippines. You say Seychelles is beautiful but it is boring my friend. I am in for my planning to move to Makati. From there I can move to every spot I want in South East Asia.
I'm a minute and a half in and I totally get it. I've been here 4 months and I need a break. I'm heading to Thailand and Vietnam for 5-6 months on December 1st.
p.s. poblacion in makati is awesome ;)
I like your channel. I was on an international dating site for one week and my mailbox was full, Philippines only. Ended up with a 27 year old Filipina, 4 weeks FaceTime then flew out to see her . I was lucky it all worked out. She’s a wonderful woman. I did the same before in Columbia and Chile. By the way don’t pass up Bacolod. I saw one comment or saying that he puts his phone number on a very simple business card and hands it to the girls in the shops or in the shopping mall stores and he gets a lot of replies. I thought that was a smart idea for the Philippines. So true about the City Girls province girls, and poor girls. My girl is a province girl slippers shorts T-shirt. She’s ready to go and she looks absolutely beautiful.. if you’re just visiting for a month, you should recommend a rental Toyota Vos is $27 a day. I understand the economy of a bike, but I am just terrified of getting into an accident in the Philippines. There is no ambulance. There is nothing.
So good to see the Scooty Boy again, but the vids are done so quickly. I hate to admit it, but I think you and Big World Cinema are in for a collision course in Manila! Who knows, it might work out well!!!!
Were you in Cebu City this week? Thought I saw you by Ayala Center.
yes ted I was there for a week last week
@@Regular_Guyphmust have missed you. Or I did not go enough to the mall, just across Solinea T1
@@Regular_Guyph I was that close to "greatness". lol
Great video Scotty!
Wow. What a story. "Be careful. You're going to end up pregnant and then he'll leave you." Low and behold a month later and the prophecy comes true. So predictable it's sad.
Even though you aren’t posting as much, your subscriber number keeps growing.
Hi Scotty …wishing you all the best in your travels. Eventually you will probably (maybe) decide to settle down. Stay safe and keep posting your travel vids wherever you may be.
If I wanted to live in the Philippines I prefer either Manila or GBC Metro area. Great choice ? 🤔💬
What is GBC i've never heard of it?
Why? Do you prefer overpriced crowded and polluted cities? It's one of the most densely populated cities in the world where you will be more packed than sardines.
@@Regular_Guyph I'm pretty sure he meant to type BGC which is nicest area of Manila. I could definitely see myself living there
@@PavolKosik-b3u Have you been to BGC Manila? Very nice not a mass of people compared to other areas of Manila
@@clrodrick oooh sorry BGC yes I'll be looking at a condo that is 10 min walk from bgc and its only 12k a month
