  • We’ve spent the past 3 weeks here in Asia and we just landed on our 5th region in the Philippines: the island of Cebu. By and large, the food we’ve encountered here so far has been relatively tame. But that all changes today because we’re on a munching mission and Cebu City offers the most colorful collection of culinary kicks in the country. From fishballs to horse balls, blood to intestines, and eel babies to duck embryos. Let’s start devouring!

    ABOUT US.
    We’re the Lockwoods: a family with 3 kids, 5 careers, and endless passion for adventure. Two years ago, we decided it was time for Phil's ad agency to abandon the in-person, 5-day workweek. So they 86’d the office and work hours, allowing our own family to start traveling almost constantly. We now work, school, and explore in a different place every week-from our own mountain and beach homes to exotic villas, resorts, and yachts around the world. As we experience and support diverse cultures, we hope to inspire more families to design a life of freedom and adventure.
    Because there’s a new American Dream. It’s one that’s void of templated expectations, templated career paths, templated education, templated families, templated homes, and templated lives. Freedom is no longer an American tagline-it’s just the new, global way of life.
    Every day that you spend doing something that doesn’t fulfill you to your core, you’re living your life on pause. You’re deferring genuine family time with no guarantee that there will be a tomorrow or a someday. Some people follow that mentality their entire lives. We’ve chosen to never live that way again.
    We appreciate you following our journey. The more our channel grows, the more time we can spend traveling to more locations, contributing to these cultures, highlighting local businesses, and sharing inspiring stories from these communities. So please consider liking, commenting, and subscribing so that you can stick with us for the long haul.

      I always think that when I watch your videos. It was the absolute right decsision to take them on those travels in their age. They will profit so much from it. If I have kids, I will try to give them the same opportunities. I know how much it changed me, when I did it later, on my own - yet, in those years, things like that have a much bigger impact. :)

    What I love about your vids is the mix of the high end and low budget of doing things here in the Philippines. You book the nicest places but explore the off beaten path even to some of the locals. A well off foreigner watching would at least feel comfortable knowing there are nice and modern places to stay and eat in. But then there are those who are backpackers and are more in to the adventure of trying the local scene. So there is something there for everyone to watch and enjoy. Seeing how the kids are even willing to try eat balut more than the locals are the best. Great job of trying to expose them to exotic places and dishes.

Also exposing them to the local community and having them experience things that may be not of comfort especially to westerners really is just heartwarming. They'll grow up great with a sense of open-mindedness to cultural diversity and we need more parents like you for being so great. Kudos, sending love from a Cebuano :D

    been scoping your Philippines vlogs for some time and am loving the adventurous and informative vlogging you guys do. It seems more documentary than just travel which I love. Cross-comparison with what you know and have experienced helps other people who have not been in the Philippines identify with the palette. Your kids will thank you one day for the exposure and experience and am sure they are just as enriched and as engulfed with the whole venture. Kudos and more power to your channel and endeavours.

      Balut is a very healthy food... Balut is an excellent source of proteins that is an important part of the human diet to help building blocks in repairing and building the tissues in your body like the bones, muscles, skin, blood and cartilages..

      i agree, but mostly 80's and 90's kids eat balut.. generation 2000's and up are the one's that usually don't eat balut.. we eat balut back then after partying in libis.. oh the good old days.. hmmm.. 😅
      oh just a tip.. if you don't like balut because of the baby duck in it.. try asking your local balut vendor for "balut sa puti", the chick would be very small when you buy "balut sa puti" instead of the normal one's with feathers and beak etc.

I love watching the family's reactions when they go to the places they've been, like the hotel where they're staying, or the islands they've visited. I enjoy the energy and atmosphere of the family. The kids were entertaining to watch, especially Brooklyn, who makes expressions at her parents when they talk about the islands, and Colt, who collects lizards, I believe they are "tuko," which are hard to capture and rarely appear.

I have seen all your Philippine vlog of course and noticed you have more likes received in all the PH videos than your other country tour.

    My favorite family vloggers! Kudos to the parents for raising such well-behaved and adventurous kids. Mom and Dad are super cool too! Appreciate it so much that you love your stay in the Philippines. Just moved to British Columbia and now I am craving for lechon and all the foods you featured 😅😅😅

    You guys are awesome!!! I am a Filipino living in NY and I have been traveling with my kids as well. Unfortunately I am divorced so will be taking my Italian fiancé to the Philippines next year and will be traveling to the same places you’ve been to. Love your kids and that little man’s palate is the next Bourdain!!! Keep up the adventure

    husband speaking - again, I've been married to my Cebu lady for 46 years and I don't eat half of what you just tried, I will eat some midnight stew,
    blood only though on rice. Your kids are amazing to try so many types of food. I don't understand how all of you look so cool when I know it is so humid.

  • @lifeon2wheels86

    damn, gotta give you props, i've lived in the Philippines for sooo long but i've always avoided eating balut, just gives me the creeps looking at it but you guys actually ate it hahah really more adventurous then most of the filipinos hahahha

    • @lionhearted1969
      @lionhearted1969 Рік тому +1

      Mind over matter. Balut isn't gross to eat. Icelandic's staple of rancid whale meat or Taiwan's stinky tofu or Thai's assorted fried insects (snakes, crickets, centipedes, etc) are far more disgusting, both in visuals and in smell and even taste. But balut doesn't have repulsive taste or smell. The chick inside every balut egg doesn't have digestive system yet so they don't have guts to worry about. :-)

  • @moondustgirl2132
    @moondustgirl2132 Рік тому +10

    Applause and more applause guys, esp. to the kiddies for trying BALUT! And glad you loved all the food you tried. And wow, you even had ENSAYMADA, one of our popular local pastries. (It originated in Spain though, so not really original Filipino.) What you missed out on is TURON, a fried banana with jackfruit spring roll. But atleast you had its cousin BANANA-Q which is also very popular here. :)
    Btw guys, our LUMPIANG SHANGHAI was named 2nd Best Street Food in the World for 2022 by Taste Atlas. Other Taste Atlas' picks (though not street food) are:
    SINIGANG (can be pork, shrimp or even salmon) - World's Best Soup in 2021.
    CHICKEN INASAL - Top 5 of 50 Best Chicken Dishes in the World.
    TORTANG TALONG - Best Egg Dish in the World.
    On your return to PH, try also our KAKANINs, native snacks from the olden days. I think you had some at the Loboc river ferry. But there are many kinds of Kakanin like KUTSINTA, PUTO, BIBINGKA, different types of SUMAN, PALITAW, SAPIN-SAPIN, CASSAVA CAKE, etc.

They are so blessed!

    No dull moment. I love that you tell a little bit of history about the places you visit. Erin’s knowledge of why Filipinos use spoon instead of knife is very impressive. The kids are just adorable and will grow up to be wonderful people being taught to appreciate different cultures and traditions. I’m hooked. More places to visit and power to your family.

    I live in the PH, but I haven't even tried balut nor betamax (grilled blood) - cheers especially to your kids for even trying them out! 👏
    I recommend canyoneering in Badian, whaleshark watching in Oslob, and the sardine run in Moalboal - they are all in southern Cebu, so you can probably do them all in 2 days! I'm sure the kids will enjoy them all! 💯
