    I don’t like the tone of his vlog at all. I hope it improves. He has a bias that shows in his speech and can be off-putting. If he can be more neutral at least, it might improve the vibe

    You're starting your vlogging journey in the Philippines on the wrong foot. If you want people to watch your videos and grow your subscriber base, it's essential to avoid showcasing paranoia in your content. Vlogging tips 101: Making negative comments tends to attract more negativity than positivity. Instead, focus on enjoying the process.
    If you value honesty over gaining new subscribers, think about whether your comments about safety are truly necessary, especially if you haven't personally experienced any harm in our country. Many Filipinos find it frustrating to hear paranoid comments about snatchers and other crimes. Please refrain from portraying Metro Manila in a negative light. Just like joy, fear can spread easily. Unknowingly, your paranoid concerns can negatively impact our tourism efforts in ways we do not deserve. Please be mindful of the tone of your content. I wish you a joyful and safe experience in the Philippines.

    That's a decent place compared here in Bolzano italy. A €50 accomodation per night will give you 1 simple queen or double size bed, simple beddings, a simple bath with 3 sachets of shampoo and 3 sachets of body wash, 2 pcs toilet rolls 2 pairs of regular towels and a fan or heater. That's it.

      Unfiltered thoughts and opinions. As you will see in the next videos, I formed a positive opinion on the Philippines. Unfortunately, this is the way Manila (not all of the Philippines) is portrayed in the media and online, hence my bias.

    Being honest is ok but to say it in camera where millions can possibly watch is very judgemental for a neophyte vlogger like you. Don't flatter your self, we don't appreciate you being in our country. You've caused damage already. You can shorten your stay and leave. You are the only vlogger who said that a very insensitive behavior.

    Hahah! You're quite the gullible person on believing reports on the crime & safety situation in the Philippines ... almost to the point of paranoia, actually. (It's like you look over your shoulder ever so often. It would be hilarious hanging out with you as a partner.) So funny; you made my day. Heck, I'm gonna keep watching your videos. 🤣🤣🤣

    Why do foreign visitors to the Philippine think that Manila is a dangerous city? IT IS NOT! It is not any more dangerous than NYC, London, or Bangkok to name a few popular destinations. The PHL government has tried very hard to shake of this perception that Manila, and to a lesser extent the PHL, is dangerous. Geezzz....
