🇵🇭 When you retire in the Philippines province...
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 тра 2024
- We often say that our life feels like being retired in the Philippines. We live slow, and with a meaningful purpose. It got us thinking about the things that you bring with you when you choose to live in the province. The most important thing to bring, could be the skills and expertise that you learned in your life. It could bring real value to the community that you assimilate into to and give you a valuable purpose too.
Check out the new Halika Gelato shop and the insane Hydroponic farm setup that has just arrived on the isla.

How I wish I can visit Siargao island to experience the beauty of the beaches and nature. I'm a Filipino but I've never been to any places Eight Miles from Home Family have been to. I envy so much, haha.
Thank you for featuring my brother's lettuce 🥬🥬🥬. The woman who is our aunt who handed chicken to story has been featured in your blog post oddette with your landowner maryjane.
In love with this family, enjoying the simple life this beautiful island has to offer. Can't wait to visit this island ❤
I really enjoyed this. Its really a win win situation in the Philippines. The Philippines government makes it super easy for foreigners (xpats) to live in the Philippines. In return, we bring our money and skills that benefits the country. No other Asian country makes it this easy to live permanently like the Philippines.
It’s true, plus the amazing English speaking ability is really a super power
Well said Jay, not only to earn money but to give back to the community and even if you retire it helps you in a healthy way.
It’s very rewarding that way
So healthy meal❤❤❤ I love the area. Nowadays, more people are aware of eating more healthy food❤❤❤
Please get Storey to wear a seat belt. As a former police officer I can assure you it's the way to go.
Careful with the dogs
Kuya itali mo aso mo pls
@@joehinds29988 most likely never drive over like 40 mph I’ve lived there and in Indonesia rarely do you see cars get up to higher speeds because of road and traffic.
@@joehinds29988slow driving can still hurt this kid badly ….
I resonated with your experience of adjusting to island life after your UK trip. For me, it's the opposite. Having traveled around Asia myself, including the Philippines, the jet lag and longing for vibrant culture hit me hard as soon as I step back into the UK.
Also, your efforts to spot local wildlife are commendable. It's great to watch you explore and help preserve these natural habitats. Looking forward to more of your adventures!
I have the same experience when I came back to Canada from the Philippines. People are so uptight it's hard to socialized. I miss the vibrant culture in the Philippines.
WOW! 🌷😮 so beautiful, and fresh. Thank you for sharing your video. Take care and stay healthy. 🏝️🤙😊🌹☮️♥️
Nice video editing, Audio and video quality... So relaxing 😊 Love from Tabaco City, Albay, Bicol Region 🇵🇭
❤ lovely family, together again 🙏❤️
you can do the same hydrophonic in your land and you have a water source already its best to plant your own vegetables
that's the ideal garden if you don't have enough backyard to grow vegetables, Hydroponic just recycling water.
Love your vlog because of family stuff and it's so wholesome!
Continue what you guys are doing. Haters will always be haters. They bring their negativity to everything in their life. I love your videos and the positivity you have done to the island is appreciated. Thank you for helping those affected by Odetter, for broadcasting and drive the funding to clean up plastics in the island. You guys are amazing. You actually do something as opposed to people here that are pure trolls.
Everything looked delicious but you guys need some guacamole and salsa for your wraps.
Thanks for sharing. Your right you have to have a hobby after you retire. My dad gave up kept saying why I'm retired and it killed him. Over 2 yrs he's been gone now. But he shut down in other ways before passing. Dementia and many other health issues. He was 78. Way too young. His father kept busy til the last few years of his life doing hobbies and he lived for 95 yrs. On another note remember dogs can't eat wheat, corn, spy, grapes, onions, and garlic. It will make them sick and corn raises their body temperature causing them to itch like crazy. Love the lettuce place. That's so amazing. I get excited when I find places like that too and I'm 47. So they're organic. Cool beans. Thanks again for sharing .
Wow, fresh and organic lettuce, happy islander family,, you guys lucky to live in the beach side, witch is my dream but unfortunately buying lot in tourist area are sooo expensive...
Lots of people like a simple life and peaceful ,you live in the city and lots of crime and drugs .i think they have a good choice and the are smart couple to have that kind of life .simple and happy ,god bless theme.
Do sasha and husband and story live in city ? i thought the island is a village?
This is my kind of vlogs. Love this hydroponic gardening. Feeling healthy to have picked up your food straight from the garden. Aways enjoy the local vlogs.❤
Wow, yummy salad super fresh lettuce and others vegetables. Love it .
All the food you prepared looked scrumptious esp. the salad with the fresh lettuce. Story was so cute holding that chicken. Reminded me of my pet chicken as a child.
Love how Story eat with her foot up, just like a Filipino. Thank you.
Just a perfect way to spend my friday night. Really enjoyed this episode 🙂
Your a very nice looking family very inspirational
Nice discovery!
All soo cooolll!!! ❤❤❤
The whole family together again. Nice!
Watching now from Brunei
What a cool farm.
The green scenery quiet peaceful place ❤
Lovely video of beautiful family and the 🐶!❤❤❤
That’s a really nice idea for a small business especially on remote islands
Nice Farm. I love it so much.Beautiful dogs.Good for Story to see and enjoy this hydroponic garden.Very interesting.
FYI: We have Hamleys branch here in the Philippines & it’s at Central Square in BGC 😊
Up 👆
26:59 Story's leg on the chair. lol
Classic
Pinoy na gyud!
Your beautiful family inspires me to move to Siargao one day
I'm going to Cabagnan ... I have to wait for kiddo to finish high school. I cant wait.
Nice family they love Philippines , and their daughter it growing up in that place
❤❤❤❤❤
I’m just starting to repot the beautiful flowering plants I just bought from the garden center near my condo and it’s already spring in the Midwest (Chicago). I love gardening, it’s very therapeutic, it gives you joy when they bloom.
I'm 49 and I got VERY excited about picking and tasting one of my home-grown lettuce leaves today.
Keep safe always guy's
Wow! What a delicious and healthy meal, Story will be a great baker.
I was on vacation in Cebu for 3 weeks and just got back in the US. So im binge watching all the videos that i missed! Hello lovely family! Story look like she’s grown taller since i last saw her!!! And prettier each day!
You can grow your own veggies and your salad bar your garden. I live in chignon and I have a good sized balcony where I can plant in pots beautiful flowers and two tomato plants, come august or septi can harvest 12-25 ripe tomatoes. You are lucky because you have a large yard to plant almost everything and there is no winter there to interfere with your planting, it’s planting season there throughout the year.
Jay got all points economical and pleasure as well, life in province are longer in comparison to city. Stress free and good vibes with nature and friends, includes us … your fans.❤
Enjoy your dinner guys 😋yummy
WOW ❤❤LETTUCES FARM IS SO IMPRESSIVE SHOUT OUT TO THE COUPLE FARM CHICKEN VERY ORGANIC WAY TO PROVIDE PEOPLE TO EAT
Siargao is one of my list to visit once I come in the Philippines.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ just subscribed!
Hello guys, hope you're all well and safe. More power to you all and to your life and blogs adventures there in Siargao.
Hearing the dogs bark made me realize I don’t think I have ever heard Poppy bark! Does she bark?
She's inside most of the time or just playing with the house dogs on the beach or the lawn, so she never really is in the situation where she's meeting strangers in HER territory. When she's out and about, she's not in her territory, so she's not territorial.
I love my Oura ring.
❤
Wow! Lettuce are fresh and organic,here in Canada,lettuce are quite expensive now,it cost C$ 3.99 hopefully summer is approaching it will be less expensive
❤ thumbs up 👍😍
❤❤❤
Golly salads looks so delicious 😋
Story eat that chicken native, it's so yummy😂😂..jokes only hehe..but sometimes do cheat day guys just for tasting, I wonder if story know the taste of meats, and fish...
Hello I’m a pinay watching from
Japan , I’m your silent viewer so happy to see you all enjoying your life in the Phil’s . take care and Godbless ❤ Story is growing so fast hugs hugs young lady 🥰
Wow yummy 😋
wow, romaine lettuce, butter lettuce, cos lettuce and red lettuce all very good, red have some nutrients than the green do not have, also to mix them make it nutrient rich.
Hydroponics is excellent and dont have chemicals in it. You can have it in your home.❤😊
I hope I could something like the hydrophobic farm here in Manila. I would be eating veggies every day.
Soon you'll have your own greenhouse on your land too and Phwah2x tending to it maybe
That’s what I’m thinking or maybe open their own sari/2 business.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
nice❤
I enjoyed Watching the happiness of the visit you had in England with your daughter It grieves me to see you and story sacrificing so much to please your husbands desire to live in isolation
They really are not in isolation.. there are people all around ... it's their life & they love it❤
Hi Jay Sasha and Story, I’ve been watching you from as far back as Thailand,
You are great parents and Story is a credit to you both. I’ve asked you this a couple of months ago, please can you tell me what’s happening with your house build .
Bless you all and stay safe 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️
Oh ,welcome back,whats the story...
😊❤
💞💞💞
All this gardening could be doing in England too I hate seeing them living this lifestyle in poverty it's making my heart break
I wish for you all to return to England as a family and live there And have videos on Daily life England
Too expensive and just work, work, work. Seems like no life at all.
So yummieeeee 😊
My heart is so sad For Sasha and for story
9:38 TRIVIA 💡💡💡
The word HALIKA means "Come"
DITO means "Here"
When combined, HALIKA DITO means "Come Here"
I heard "Halika Dito" a lot during my recent visit to the Philippines. It really shows the welcoming spirit there. Thanks for sharing this! Mabuhay and salamat!🇵🇭
@@InvestedAdventure Yappp, simple word but welcomes anyone, everyone no matter what races you are in 😇😊 Thanks for visiting our country 🇵🇭 You guys are always welcome here.
Wow, a
Not a vegan but your meal looks yummy especially the salad 🥗🥙
Hello 8 milestone happy mother day and assumption Sunday to your family
You’re still having jet lag, Sacha. That’s my problem, too, whenever I visit the Phil.. I cannot sleep during the night and I fall asleep during the day. This goes on for about two weeks.
Been there last March but we didn’t see any crocodiles 😊
In the Philippines jungle no harsh animals like lion, tiger, puma, leopard, hyena, but only you've found king cobra and crocodiles.
Crocodile watching.hello crocs,don't hide under that muddy wata.
Next time our visit me and my husband will be coming to Siargao and maybe we will try to stay or rent a place by the beach we are just wondering of the cost. We are both retired now from Uk..
I will make it a point that I go to Siargao when I visit my nieces and nephews living in Manila, but a side trip to siargao would be nice. I’m just
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤watching👀 from Hongkong
The reason why it is hard to spot those animals in Siargao now is that, the locals took down all trees and in place, planted COCONUT for their livelihood. So , yeah. But that Hornbill (Kalaw) is endemic to the Sierra Madre Mountain range... it extends all the way to our home here in Rizal (Region 4) down to there in Mindanao!!!!
hi Sacha and Jay.. just wondering if you guys can recommend a beachfront accomodation which is within budget. Thanks a lot and I really appreciate it
Wow so cheap here in NYC those greens you jyst bought cost a fortune
Sasha took some sense into that husband of yours
very strong accent until now
I always struggle with jetlag, my body will stay with EU time for 2 weeks but by 3rd week, I am ok....but its time to pack up again to go back to Portugal.
Story is eating with her feet up on the chair...just like some Pinoys do. 😂
Love the hydronics foodie yes the Philippines is coming along way. I am so excited.🎉🎉🎉😊😊
200 pesos. That's incredibly incredibly cheap.
Food wise you guys should be living in Baguio city. You’ll have your fill with the best veggies in the country. But lifestyle wise, I know you guys are not leaving Siargao anytime soon. I know you’ve been to Baguio before and you didn’t like it but if you go again. I think it might be a better experience for you now
What is the staturs of your repair/selling of your Toyota?
Stay you all safe ❤❤❤
I also noticed that Story was happy around family Where is in sargo she only has you and your husband And a few friends Maybe you just are gonna please your husband seems to be him the 1 that loves being there
In one of Finn Snow's old vlogs, he encountered that Philippine Crocodile (a saltwater one) in Balabac... it saw the drone and it squirmed annoyedly in the water as if wanting to jump up and catch the drone!!!!
