  • THIS COAST OF SURIGAO IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! TRULY A HIDDEN PARADISE IN THE PHILIPPINES!
    After a night out at a Franco concert, I find myself waking up in Surigao City and ready to keep heading south. This time, I take a coastal road down Surigao away from the main highway. Passing through the little towns, I soon find out how beautiful this area is. The coast is full of turquoise pebbly beach ocean... it is amazing! After driving up and over from the coast, I find myself in the town of Jabonga that sits along the fourth largest lake in the Philippines... Lake Mainit. Here I try some delicious food, including my first ever eel adobo. I really love the restaurant setup they have here by the lake.. it is like a hidden paradise!
    Another beautiful area of Mindanao...
    POWER ON!

    you are doing what many Filipinos only dream about. Driving from North to South of the Phils and documenting everything with all the locals. You are more Filipino than me actually. Kudos, Kyle !!!

    ❤❤❤Kyle you would be the first vlogger who became a Filipino citizen, again congratulations. But you would also be the first who has traveled the most provinces in my native country.😻😻😻👏👏👏I stand corrected just in case there’s someone else who has!!
    What at amazing adventure Kulas, spreading smiles and good vibes among the residents and more importantly endorsing and inviting everybody to visit the Philippines. Mabuhay ka!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

    ❤❤❤I would also add that Kulas is also confident to travel alone and feeling at ease conversing with the locals and speaking in random Bisaya depending where he is at the time, loved it❤❤❤.

    Man, you just bring a lot of memories when doing all these trips. This particular vlog just feels so noltaglc, this route from the San Francisco shore down to Malimono, to Jabonga to Butuan. Harold was one of the Youth Leader in that town. Man! Thank you

    The texture of your eel reminded me of the texture of scallops. And the pijangga (sorry about the spelling) chicharron is like having a side of potato chips but probably healthier. You were really enjoying them so much that I hope they made it home to Cateel for the barkada to enjoy, too.😂

Even booked Surigao Dream resort (the one with Finnish Owner) for 3 nights. Hope to rent a scooter and explore that beauty arround:) Thanx so much for inspiration and greetings from Lithuania (North Europe).

    21:36 "Panaw" originally meant "to travel", "to undertake a voyage" in both Visayan and Tagalog languages. It became a euphemism for dying in Tagalog, in the sense of "they passed away". And over time, the euphemistic meaning became the primary one.
