Leaving SIARGAO, We've Got Some Bad News
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 жов 2024
- Today was an emotional day in so many ways. We got some news that threw all our plans into a frenzy. An opportunity popped up through a friend and it turns out that there is a secret commercial route back to London Heathrow and Phwah Phwah, J's mum has decided to take it.
So one of Phwah Phwah's friends has found passage off of Siargao island and will be travelling by sea, land and air back to Australia. On his way he has offered to escort J's mum to Manila airport where she can catch her own flight back to London. We only found out about this today in the morning and to make it a possibility we had to act quickly to get all of the papers in order for Phwah Phwah to join her friend on the long journey back to her home.
Let's support Phwah Phwah with well wishes and encouraging talk, because it will be an epic journey and not an easy one for a woman of her age. We did our research and it seems to be the only way for her to make her escape without having to wait until September when the airport in Siargao is planning to open again.
Things are about to change for us all. Let's try to stay positive and support each other during these difficult times . :-)

Hey guys, let's all wish Phwah Phwah strength and encouragement for her epic journey back to London. We know she'll be ok, and we will miss her dearly.
God bless her journey 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Prayers for you Phwah Phwah!
God bless her journey. Will be missing your Mom..
Prayers for your mom and your family. Your family has been a good inspiration for everyone
Safe journey, Phwah Phwah.
You're Mum will be fine, she's a very capable lady. And getting back home after such a long period has to be her priority.
When story got humus in her face and the waiter took care of her was the cutest!!!!!! My heart 🥺 ❤️
You guys got me. I was crying while watching especially when Jay became emotional about Phwah Phwah's leaving. This reminds me of my Mom back in the Philippines. It's been more than 2 years now that I haven't seen her because I work here in Qatar. I was supposed to go for vacation last month but due to the current situation, it was postponed. Don't worry guys, Phwah Phwah will be fine and I believe she misses her home too and your family back in London. It will be alright. I would love to commend you also for being such amazing parents. Story is growing a smart and lovable kid. Her social skill is unbelievable. She's so adorable.
I fully understand how she feels, when you get older you just want your own things around you.
indeed.. i can relate to her
Lynne Morris During times of uncertainties, you always want to be in the comfort of your home, not in an island you don’t know much about. Yes, Siargao can be paradise only if you’re on a short vacation, not on uncertain times where you don’t know when it will last.
I’ll pray for her safe travel back to England.
That is a nice thing to do, thank you. She will have many people hoping for her safe passage 😊
Have a safe journey back home Phwah Phwah. We are glad you're healthy going back to London.
hello nice to see you again little beautiful Moana and your Mom and Dad...will miss your grandma...God Bless her on her travel ..
Wishing your mum all the best on her journey home! You've created such beautiful memories together! 🥰
Bon Voyage dear Irma. I will miss you but 100% understand and support your decision. You have 2 sons, their partners and your grandchildren to love and support you in the UK. The time is right to return to your home now. The journey will be epic but you will have company for the worst part of it and you are fit and levelheaded. You will be fine! Sasha and J - what a wonderful opportunity this has been for you all to strengthen your bonds, particularly for Story and her darling Pwah Pwah. Thank you for giving your subscribers an opportunity to get to know your lovely Mum. Her grace and sweet nature shine through. I wish her all the best things in life. Perhaps Omar can include her in some of his videos so we can keep in touch with her back in the UK.
Im gonna miss Pwah-pwah😭 Hugs to you guys I felt the sadness but she will be safe in London with your family, she really miss home as well. Let us support and pray for her safe travel.. miss you already Pwah-pwah. God bless you always❤️😘
I wish the best for your mom Phwah Phwah on her journey back to Lodon...and don't think of it as goodbye..think f it as farewell with all the hope of seeing each other again in the near future! Be safe and God bless you guys!
Watching from California. You’re such a caring, loving son to your mom. Breaks your heart ❤️ to see her go. We only one mom and we need to treasure her. God bless.
Oh dear, you had me choked up near the end there. She is on her own journey and she will be safe because it is what she wants. Her mind will keep her safe. Good luck & safe travels to your beautiful mom.
So sad that Phwah Phwah is leaving. She doesn't say a lot in the vlogs but it's very comforting to see her with you as a family. Hope she stills consider to stay longer until everything is safe.
Praying Irma endures the long voyage back to London in very good shape. I am sure she misses home and the rest of the family.
Will miss pwah pwah. I pray a safe and uneventful journey back home for her. You are a lovely family. Great vlogs
We will miss her too, thank you Judith
Sending prayers for your mums safety travels way back home 🙏... will miss her in your vlogs... take care everyone!🙏
We wish for Phwah Phwah's safety and for her to finally get back home. It is a bit scary in my own opinion but if this makes her happy then I am happy that you are respecting her decision. Phwah Phwah will be in my prayers. She has become my online grandma on this quarantine period. Stay safe guys 💗
She really wants to go. So we just have to make sure she is safe as can be. She will have a strong support network all the way back to my family in London so let's remember the good times we all shared together.
@@8milesfromhome Your mum is a witness as am I and she has sisters and brothers everywhere. Any help she needs we will all be there for her. I am sure the local congregations will do anything needed. Jehovah's blessing on her journey. I will pray for a safe and easy trip home xxx
@@kerrysmith1936 thats why she at times did not seem happy to be in the vlogs even the celebration of her wedding anisversary by her son is not what witness do they dont celebrate birthdays etc she just went through the motions to make j and sacha and story happy
@@BicheBug1996 we don't celebrate birthdays but we do celebrate wedding anniversaries.
May ,Amigthy GOD JEHOVA proctect her
Have a safe journey Phwah Phwah! 🤗😘
Pray for a safe and smooth journey for Phwah Phwah back home. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Your mom is very sweet soft speaking lady. She has this calmness in her demeanor. Praying she will have a wonderful and safe travel back to UK. God bless!
That’s my friend Castel over there. The resident guitarist & singer. Much love here from Bacolod. ☺️
All the best to Phwah Phwah! May she have a safe and smooth travel as she goes back to England. Much love to you all.
Pwah Pwah is such a lady, so easy to be around. It looks like you all get on so well together. Safe journey home. I will say a prayer for her.
i was teary-eyed watching this. i will miss Phwah Phwah in your vlogs😔.
Praying for your safe travels, Pwah Pwah. God bless🙏❤️🙏❤️
Wishing Irma a stress-free, totally uneventful trip back to England. All the best to you, lovely lady. I’m sure we’ll see you on this vlog again one day.
Hey Eight Miles From Home! Thank you for the shoutout for our Mum & Dad’s wedding anniversary! Keep up the great work. - From The Gallardo Family :)
We will missed Phawh Phawh blogging, we hope when Phawh Phawh back at UK we gonna see her on your next video. Safe travel Phawh Phawh.
I feel sad about phwah phwah leaving :( If she’s a senior citizen the hassle of travelling during pandemic is treacherous.
Your a good son Jay, I can see you want the best for her and you will miss her
I suggest you watch "The Travelling Catt" vlog about his trip from cagayan de oro to Siargao he was stranded somewhere in the middle for like a week before he reached siargao. If Pwah Pwah is travelling to Manila you must have contact person in every town stops as paper requirements are different for each town.
I think there's a private bus or van that will take her and her friend to Cdo. That's safer. I guess everything will be sorted out for them by the local government of siargao and the local government of cdo all the way through manila where they will take a nonstop flight to london.
IT WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE IF THEY HAVE THEIR OWN CAR SO THAT THEY CAN HAVE COMFORT on their way they will spend.for almost 2 to.3 days b4 they can reach Manila...Hope they will stay safe...
Exactly Spot on ..
International Airport is a disaster people sleeping on floors
the problem with Tal is that he was crossing border to relocate, hence his travel was deemed not essential. For stranded individuals seeking flights to go home, the process will be way more forgiving provided they secure proper and complete travel authority and supporting documents.
I wish your mom a safe journey back to London. Hope everything goes smoothly as she heads off to Manila to get on her flight.
Oh I feel sad too that your Mum is leaving. You are such a sweet son and respect you even more when you were about to cry when talking about your Mum leaving.
Have a safe trip Phwah Phwah! ✈ Maybe one day you'll show us your garden in London. 👩🌾❤
Aww, I’m sorry to see her leave:(. But perfectly understandable!
Gonna miss seeing your mum, but the only thing constant in this world is change. Hope she has a safe and enjoyable trip home. Till we meet again is the best way of putting it. Aloha!
Hopefully that your mum can go back home to London very soon. God bless po and your family take heart God is in control of evrything
I also feel sad that Phwah Phwah is leaving, but what can we do. Let's just wish her a safe travel back to London and am sure she'll be fine there.
I really enjoy your videos and it is the first one I will watch every morning while having my breakfast. I can understand your mixed feelings knowing Phwah Phwah will be leaving Phil since she has been with you all for the past 6 months and so used to seeing her each day and then suddenly she won't be around. I'm sure Phwah Phwah has enjoyed this journey with you all but it's time for her to go back to her normal life in London. I always believe it's the quality (being able to bond and share the adventure in Phil with your family) and not the quantity (spending long period of time) that matters. She will treasure these wonderful memories while she is back in London. I wish Phwah Phwah a safe journey home and more beautiful adventures for your family in Phil.
That's really nice that she's traveling with someone as it can get very stressful to figure out things out there, especially if there's a lot of waiting periods. You have a lovely mom.
Your mum will be fine Gods will protect her
Wow such a beautiful place you guys are living a dream.....Story has the best childhood life living in paradise
Bittersweet.
Safe journey back to London PwahPwah.
Omg..the noise from the cicadas. Omg.. I'm tearing up.😢 It's been 14 years. Thanks for the video. Have a safe flight, Pwah-pwah.
Sad to know that your Mum is leaving.
To me she is always like the "Lady" in the Philippine nature.
But understandable that she had to go her own way. May God Almighty lead and bless her way.
Wishing Phwah Phwah’s safe travel back to London !!!
We will surely miss her in your vlogs but she needed that for herself..Its good enough we have modern technology like this and being constantly updated by each of your own lives even separated miles and miles away..
Storyyyyy ❤️❤️❤️ohhhh I feel sad too , I hope Pwah Pwah will be fine and she will reach UK safe , I pray for all of u . Stay safe Godbless everyone
Ahhh. ❤️❤️❤️ Please say to Puwah Puwah have a safe trip and God bless
That’s sad for you especially for Story. Honestly, I teared up when I saw Jay got emotional. I know the feeling of getting separated from loved ones. However, your Mum needs to be with her other children and grand children, too. Please extend my wishes to Phwah Phwah for a pleasant journey home.❤️🇵🇭🇦🇪
Praying for a safe travel back home for Pwah Pwah 💕🙏🏽
13:35 Pwah Pwah just knew them since you've been locked down there? She sure does make friends everywhere she goes where there is a Kingdom Hall.
For sure 🙏
Is your mom associating with the JW kingdomhall back in england?
Prayer for Phwah Phawh's safe travel back to the UK. Will miss her....
Phwah Phwah please be safe. God will be with you until you step in your house in london. I will be missing your presence in 8miles vlog. God bless. (With teary eyes.)
Your Mum is the best!! Such a lovely lady
She is. Thank you

I feel sad Pwah Pwah is leaving but even beautiful things have endings to start new beginnings. Will pray for her safe journey back to London.
Hugs to all of you and we will pray for your Mum’s safe journey back home. ❤️❤️❤️
Safe journey to Phwah Phwah , it’s natural she wants to get home but it’s emotional for you all. ❤️
Seeing your family healthy and happy always makes me happy! Hello Story!🥰
Aw that's nice thank you
Praying for the best.😊
I feel sad that Phwah Phwah is leaving my eye are tearing while watching this video...wishing you a safe trip back to London
We could tell. Your mom looks miserable at times. It’s understandable. Her timeline is different from yours now. She probably just want to have breakfast and go to her garden and be with her friends. Don’t be sad though. Every day life is infinite meaning you’re free to do whatever you want with your day to make you happy. That in itself is happiness.
She loves England very dearly and will be very happy to be in her own home with her other grandchildren nearby too. We can't help feeling sad, but we will also look back on all these amazing memories together too.
Yes, it’s very understandable you’ll feel sad. I’m not sure if you knew her decision long enough. We’re kinda sad for you too. Lol But, make sure you FaceTime her and update her with your adventures. I know there are a lot of travel vloggers like you with families from home. Just make sure you schedule a visit by either you guys and her stopping by -- just for a vacay lol wishing your family all the best! God bless!
love this comment - and also as someone the same age as your Mum, I totally agree , except- I never saw Phwah looking miserable- ever; I think she is a very spiritual person and enjoyed each day as it unfolded and made the most of "her day"
She never look miserable staying in Siargao or Philippines in time of Pandemic, she is thankful that she has enough time to spend/bond together again with her son J's 👪.
I wouldn't say she looked miserable. That's a far stretch. Maybe she may have been a bit tired at times, but never, ever miserable. She was always in good spirits and we wish her all the best of health.
May God bless phawh phwapa on her journey home. May God protect her/ Amen
Tell your mom have a safe trip she will be fine. From Guam
Amazing place, your daughter is very friendly to anyone, hope your mum had a safe journey back here in the UK 🇬🇧. Keep safe guys.
loved seeing your mum, she seems like such a lovely lady!
Prayers for Phwah Phwah safe travel back to London, We all going to miss her but we much happier when we see her back to her home sweet home!
Praying for Pwah Pwah's safe journey back to London ❤️
We love Phwah Phwah!!!!! Wishing her a safe journey home.
"... friends from the Kingdom Hall..."
Is Phwah Phwah a Witness? Safe travels, Phwah Phwah! ❤️😊🤗
The Lost Cat. Yes, she is JW. The term “Kingdom Hall” is associated with the Witness. I do understand her spiritual need and to close to her brothers and sisters at the Kingdom Hall. Safe travel.
@@brihanwoolman2217 In all honesty anyone who calls himself or herself a 'Christian' associates himself or herself to and is a follower of Christ is a witness. As such carry on the commission that He charged upon His followers: "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end shall come" Matt. 24:14
I am not a member of JW church but I daily live my life to be a witness for Him (who is the gospel) who came, died as a ransom for all humanity, rose from the dead victorious, ascended to Heaven, and promised to return to gather His redeemed who will remain faithful until His appearing and inherit the crown if life.
@@brihanwoolman2217 thank you, but i know what a kingdom hall is. I've been going to one for as long as I can remember 😊 if not for this pandemic and having the meetings on zoom instead. But thank you for the explanation. And yes, I do think everyone misses the company and comfort our brothers and sisters give.
Wishing for her a safe journey back home. Have a nice and happy memories while staying here in Philippines. God bless her always.
Thank you Jaime
May she have a safe and good journey home
Praying for Phwah Phwah’s safe journey. She is a strong lady with strong faith. We will miss seeing her in your vlogs for now. Make sure you take good care of her plants. 🙏🙏
I can feel how much you love your Mom. God bless you and your family. Hugs and kisses to Story.
story is such a charming baby... how i wish your mom can stay with you.. keep safe guys
Yes we wish that too, but she needs to 'want' to stay too. Right now her home is calling to her and that is a stronger draw than anything else so we have begun to accept that. Both my brothers and the whole family will be waiting to keep her safe when she gets back to London
Eight Miles from Home what about her plants? I hope your mom and your brother family will visit Phils soon. Christmas in our country start in Sept
Safe journey phwah phwah ♥️♥️
Praying for your Mom to have a safe journey home, she's ready to go and its great that you guys respect her desire to get back to her life. Godspeed Mom!
