The BAD ticket purchase was a shoulda+woulda+coulda experience. Thanks for sharing Kevin, I’m learning from your mistakes and stressful moments. The lack of rooster 🐔 awareness is another good heads up. Brownouts are a major headache and have to be considered when staying in a hotspot.
Is it because the Filipinas just don't want to take the time or the effort to be thorough about things, or they just don't care? I have to say, with no disrespect to you, but often times your girlfriend looks bored, not interested in dealing with certain things.
Kevin Kevin Kevin Kevin Kevin you crack us up.. what can go wrong will go wrong wherever you guys travel wherever you stay you miss your flights it just cracks us up.. but we love the videos we learn from them and they crack us up at the same time... I think you're going to get your registration for your bike in 6 weeks I think it's going to turn around your luck you watch brother!!
The Rooster is the national bird of the Philippines! One day booking is a good idea anywhere to avoid long term annoyances. This island is my choice if I don't find a good place in Bacong or Dauin. Though it's apart from the expat community and requires more travel for visits, a resort island has advantages. Calvin found a nice rustic spot dirt cheap on the beach and prices are good there.
You’re going to have to buy a freezer and get your meat at Belcris in Dumaguete. Another issue with Siquijor, is the internet is terrible in the hotels…not sure about long term rentals though. If we ever move, Panglao or Bohol is our first choice. They even have a Belcris on Panglao
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 Oh, I'm thinking Starlink and backup generators will be needful things for me once there, even in optimal conditions. Probably a freezer chest since I cook so much. I hope to make a friend of a fishing boat to get a "daily catch" to cook for dinner as I love seafood.
Anika Star no good? Or just bought wrong ticket? Ocean Jet is best but I hear Anika Star is good. Last time I tried to use them they were closed that day. I took slow ferry which is ok since such a short distance. I Love Siquijor though. I have been up those steps to the highest point in Siquijor! You can see Bohol and Mindanao from up there as well. I have stayed in a few resorts there. Coco Grove amazing but expensive, in San Juan!
VERY good info on the ferry ticket debacle. Especially because I usually grab whatever ticket I've purchased and sit down and focus only on making sure I'm at the correct boarding gate I need to be. Or, place too much trust in the business employee, assuming they know better than I.
Wait a minute! I’m 6’2 and if you think I’m crawling in that hole for 30 feet with two feet of headroom on my hands and knees , No way, No chance, No how. Not happening Kevin. lol😂 But I’m glad you did it.
Hahaha, you poor guy. Sorry you have to deal with the communication issues. J-L just does not know yet but will learn with each time. It's very easy for me to say be patient when I would have said some harsh words......
To miss a boat is nothing more than another exciting adventure to ALL Filipino peoples….😊it would be best for you to visit the terminal there for 6 hours everyday for a week to figure out what is REALLY going on…😊😊
Cebuano also don’t like Tagalog speaking people it’s true, I think that guy sold her wrong ticket on purpose 😉 but again it’s your fault 100% don’t blame it on Filipina especially she dont speak local language bisaya.
you didn't look at the ticket? hate to say it but that was a very rookie mistake....and relying on a young Filipina....mistake #2, thanks for the story though, we can all learn from that
Phil, you referred to the Duma port people speaking Tagalog, but I seriously doubt anyone in your part of the country was speaking anything but Visayan; and you probably know this, but your frustration and fatigue got in the way of clear thought.
Actually my name is Kevin, and my GF speaks Tagalog, not Visayan. She doesn’t understand it at all. While Visayan is the main language in Negros Oriental, Tagalog is widely spoken as well

Siquijor Island is one of the best reasons to live in and around Dumaguete. Enjoy.
Excellent information. Thanks!

Great info for all the newbies, I guess I was lucky on my trip to Dipaton.
Thanks for watching Edwin!
Another great video Kevin thanks for taking us along
When I hear the roosters I tell my Filipino Aide that it's time for breakfast! (LOL)

I AM glad I AM more of a Home-Body. And when I do go out to explore, I will choose to go where no tourists go. The true hidden gems.
👍🏻
Awesome Sijuihor
Great island!!! Sorry for the late response

Oh…and remember that your girl wants ALL the gold not just half!😊
Yep I have taken ferries over different the Philippines, I will attest the Dumaguete ferry is the worst i have seen.
I find agoda has the best prices. I normally only book the first night when traveling

I have heard that there are lots of power outages on the island of bohol.. go visit and check it out and tell us about it😮😊@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65

Don't blame you for the one night at the Rooster Inn. Noise free is maybe the most difficult thing here to find.
Mom had the deer in the headlights look in the cave. 🙂
Haha, I know. She looked terrified 😂
Life in the Philippines it’s a challenge you’re lucky it wasn’t a holiday 😊
😂you’re right!

We bought the wrong tickets. The boat was fine. We might stay at Coco Grove next time 😉
it can be so frustrating trying to travel in the PI but its part of the adventure

Of course you’ve learned that this nation of people are a catastrophic nightmare each and everyday!😊
Brown outs = Reason to travel. I like it....... !!
😉 yes sir!
Bro don't blame that innocent sweet Supermodel. You should have read the ticket, lol.
That’s what I said, in the end it was my fault.
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 I know bro
Exactly I'm a little disappointed with him
@@maryhyde6468 I was joking with him. He knows I'm joking

Sorry to hear about your break up.
Thanks😉
Thank you for the helpful information.👍👍👍👍👍. I been burn by my wife. some times they just say yes and not really understand.
Kevin do you use your credit card on Agoda, or pay at the resort?
Credit card😉
Your girl is very young and prior to you she probably didn’t ride ferry’s and in fact she probably didn’t travel much at all.
nice
