- Hey guys, it’s Jessica here!
This TRABAHO episode is a very special one for me! Growing up in the Philippines since 2009, I always dreamed of climbing a tall buko tree; and now, 15 years later, that dream finally came true. 🥹
In this episode, I didn’t just do one job-From climbing trees to delivering, preparing and selling buko, I got to experience firsthand the hard work magbubukos put in every day.
BIG shoutout to all the hardworking magbubukos in the Philippines! 🌴🥥🇵🇭 The next time you sip on a fresh buko juice, take a moment to appreciate the effort it takes to get it to you! 💕

I'm always skeptical talaga when it comes to foreign vloggers promoting the Philippines cos most of them only fish for views. But Jessica doing things that most Filipinos won't and can't even do is a proof that she really loves the country. Gulat talaga ako nung mangingisda episode because as a Filipino, as someone na lumaking probinsya, kahit ako di ko kakayanin sumisid sa manila bay but she did it. She really is a genuine one.
Yeah i agree That's why i Like Jessica's Vlog She Gave so much effort in every Vlog she Makes:)
Especially foreigner men. Most of them come to Philippines for the women lol
Walang arte mga korean.. tsaka game mga yan.. ewan ko bat gusto ng mga korean sa pinas ehehehe 😂😂
She’s doing this for views all her trabaho series
I would not cinsider her foreign vlogger. She grew up in the Philippines and she has been vlogging the love of PI for a very long long time.
I really appreciate the owner's concern for Jessica, she knows how dangerous it is and is not willing to risk Jessica's safety just for content.
Kudos to Jessica as well as she listened to her despite her strong desire to not use the harness.
She also did well on harvesting the Coconut. Good job Jessica!
I was worried when I saw the thumbnail cause it takes a lot of strength to climb a buko tree and trying it for the first time can cause injury and body pain but I'm glad to know that she prepared herself by taking wall climbing classes.
Definitely takes alot of upper body strength to help yourself pull up.
Ibang klase ka Jessica sana Ma meet kita in person single pala ako
Muntik na mahiwa kamay nya, nag worry si Kuya.

The trainer guy was amazing, watching every step, every slash and every action to make sure Jessica didn’t make a mistake.
Kudos to my master 🫡🫡🫡🫡💕
Amazing @@jessicaleeseul
Instead of making us climb buko trees, which every Filipino child in Tagaytay or Zamboanga Peninsula can do, we would like Jessica to show us the best crêperies, the best bakeries, the best florists and the sad fire in Tondo, make us listen to the most-played songs in the Philippines, and make us remember the best Filipino movies, like "Isusumbong Kita sa Tatay Ko" with the unforgettable Fernando Poe Jr., because foreign tourists need to learn how to discover, respect and love this extraordinary country.
Thank you Jessica.
The image of someone climbing a coconut tree has always been an uneasy one for me. I was about eight years old when my father attempted the climb on a dare...drunk. Unfortunately, he fell and was paralyzed the rest of his days. That decision altered the course of his life and those around him, especially my mom, younger brother, and myself. Long story short, my mom became the breadwinner, and we ended up moving to the States in search of a better future.
I've always wondered what our lives would've been like had we stayed in the Philippines close to our lolos and lolas, titos and titas, pinsans and friends...if we had only stayed Home.
I just want to say a heartfelt thank you for changing that image, Jess. You showed that climbing these trees can be challenging yet rewarding, but above all else, that it can be done safely. I was relieved when they made you wear the safety harness 🥹 Thank you for bringing to light the hardworking Filipinos that do this job everyday, and all the other jobs you've showcased in your Trabaho series. The Taho vendor and Farmer episodes being amazing standouts that made me a fan. That was a couple of years back when I ran into your channel. If there was a purpose why I stayed a viewer all this time...well, I think it was for this very reason. Maraming salamat. 정말 고마워요.
Thank you for continuing with the Trabaho series, Jess. This reminds us to respect every type of work, and the series allows us to better understand the complexities in seemingly overlooked jobs. Kudos to you and your team for taking the time to research and make these videos.
Totally agree! Really appreciate your approach to the TRABAHO series and giving time and space to honor the dignity of labor. ❤
@ Right? It amazes me how much effort she puts into every ‘trabaho’ she gets to immerse herself into.
You can really notice Jessica super enjoyed this episode. Proud of you, Jessica! GALING GALING TALAGA!!!
na stress ako sayo jessica kulit moo 😭 but grabee i super admire your dedication, maybe for other people this is "just for yt content", but u made us, esp the workers, realize that it is more than that. you always make sure that every single worker that does their job is being appreciated. and i can proudly say that i'm watching the right INFLUENCER 😊 keep doing your thing, we're always here to support you!!
Jessica deserves an award for doing this kind of content. She always gave her effort and dedication. Good job, Jessica!!
Shr already did ❤
I gotta admit, trabaho series are the ones I anticipate to watch on this channel. I'm all here for this 😊
This is the most breath taking episode of trabaho. You did very well jessica. Thankyou for embracing filipino way.
First time mo umakyat kaya nag-aalala sila at pinagbawalan ka. The fact that you did it first time is actually good. Good job 👏🏾👏🏾 I'm amazed everytime you do Trabaho episodes. You're my favorite UA-camr 😊😊😊
Memories of "What Made Me Stay in the Philippines" video thumbnail kicks in...
💙
Eto na yta pinakamahirap na nkita kong trabaho series ni jessica.jusmiyo ilang beses ng muntik mahiwa ng karet habang nsa taas ng puno ng buko.ilan beses din nadulas paakyat pababa.tpos ayaw pa palagay ng lubid sa bewang habang umaakyat.mejo mtigas ulo ni jessica pag na cha chalenged sya.pero buti nlang nde pinayagan ni ate na nde maglubid hbang umaakyat.daig pa nga ako nj jessuca kc ako nde pa marunkng umakyat ng puno ng buko.lakas loob ni jessica.yan ang youtuber na may maipagyayabang👍👏👊💪💪💪
Amazing Jessica...thank you so much Love mo bansa namin i salute you...Staysafe 😘
Jessica deserves more subs, she's so underrated pa pero ang ganda ganda ng mga content niya ay wala siyang kaarte arte. Let's try to hype her up!!!!
1.55m subs still underrated?
OMG, I enjoyed this! Buko is my favorite fruit. Kudos to Ate for not letting Jessica climb without the belaying rope. True, in any job, safety is first and foremost. Jessica and knife? Scary combo.
The ‘Jessica & Knife?’ cracked me up HAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just want to say this is one of your best trabaho video! My favorite so far! You really showed us the process from farming to selling!! . And you're also very entertaining, so it's fun to watch. You're one of the channels who really give out quality content. More power to your channel, Jessica!
My FAV too!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🥹🥹🥹
Wow 👏🏻The highlight of this video was Jessica showing the world the hard work and dedication of the mangbubuko, who tirelessly work to provide us with delicious Buko. It was truly a sweet and heartwarming moment, showcasing the beauty of their culture and traditions. Top-Notch jessica 👏🏻👏🏻
I'm really a very big fan of you Jess. You're so fun and unafraid of doing the hardest things. I think what sets you apart is that you are genuinely curious and enjoys doing what you do- even the hard parts.
of all koreans vlogger who has a ph content (juwonee, dasurichoi, sylviakim, kristypata,jinhobae, sandra, bapmukjago, hello philippines); Jessica Lee is on my top tier. trabaho in ph is so original
From this moment on, after watching this series of Jessica climbing the tree. I had a big respect for all mambubuko's out there. It's really hardwork to provide buko in the city. 💚💚
Isa sa reason kung bakit until now nahihirapan magtagalog si Jessica ay yung team nya. English kasi sya kausapin, dapat tagalog para masanay sya hanggang sa maging fluent na din sya.
Jessica Lee is a Filipino by heart. She has a genuine personality. That's why we love her here. Let's support her guys.
I didn't noticed na I was smiling the whole time while watching this episode, ankulit ni jessica pero not in a nakakainis way or cringe way, nakakatuwa how she interacts with the locals, and how she struggles with some words, love the way she hypes and gives recognition to the hardworking peeps, kudos jess!!
From climbing buko tree im nervous while waching the same time im happy that you tried to climbed that tree
Congrats because you succeed to climbed that tree and keep up idol jess more more trabaho serye to come
No other vlogger has thought of doing this. I’ve watched all the Trabaho episodes, and my top favorites are the mangingisda episode and this one. Both jobs are incredibly dangerous, yet Jessica managed to pull them off brilliantly. It’s clear that Jessica doesn’t do this just for the views-her love for Filipino culture is genuine and heartfelt. While I know you won’t stop taking on risky jobs, please prioritize your safety above all else. Always think about how your actions might impact your well-being and career. That said, kudos to Jessica and the team for taking such good care of her.
'Yong vlog niyo po is unique and I can see the genuineness na matuto every trabaho episode kaya hindi po ako nagsasawa na panuorin ang vlog niyo.
Grabe dedication mo, Jessica! You're one of a kind. I hope you'll get more recognition kasi you deserve more ❤❤❤
Met Jessica at the climbing gym once. I’ve been a fan of hers for so long, so it was such a nice surprise to see her there and even get a picture together.
I’ve been climbing since March/April, and it’s so cool to know she’s into it too. Also, surprised to learn she’s just training for her 'Trabaho Series' haha well done, Jessica!
Concern na concern si kuya kay Jessica tapos soft spoken pa
Dapat ganyan yung mga jinojowa kahit magbubuko lang pero responsable, masipag at maalaga
Napansin ko rin yon HAHAHHHA ang bait ni kuya ❤
Out of all your Trabaho series, dito grabe yung kaba at worry ko but seeing your dedication and how happy and fulfilled you are, naenjoy ko siya and nakakaproud. Thank you for always giving us quality contents, Jessica! Stay safe always!
Jessica, you are hard core and fearless! Thank you for introducing us to all the buko “Kuyas”. Next time I have a buko, I’ll be treasuring all the hard work that went into it.
Respect to all buko climbers!
You’re truly one of a kind! Congratulations for achieving yet another challenging job Jessica. Kung ako yan susungkitin ko nalang. Ikaw, tlgang inakyat mo pa napakataas na puno. 💕
Jessica, thank you so much for the trabaho series. More than it allows us to realize how hard life can be for others it allows us to realize their hardwork and how much respect they deserve.
Jessica's videos are always good vibes. Such a relaxing break from this stressful world.
You did great, Jessica! 👏 i can also see that you enjoyed this Trabaho series so much. I'm so proud of you❤
I really love every part of your vlog. I can see the effort, genuinity, and love of Filipino culture. I hope to see more exciting content. God bless you always! ❤
Jessica, I appreciate you doing this. Safety first is their utmost priority. Even if you said they will not held responsible, if it happened they will still be held responsible sa police report. So please take good care of our fellow filipinos too. It’s their way of living and please don’t try to take it away from them. 🙏🏼
Alam ko naman na nabuhay ka at na-edit mo yung video, pero kinabahan pa din ako XD Thank you for sharing with us your experience ~ ang galing galing!
Jessica is really my inspiration for dedication. Kudos to this trabaho Jessica, kudos to your team and Kuyas for prioritizing your safety.
Wow JL! Next naman is try mo maging vegetable farmer sa Benguet or part of Cordillera surely you will enjoy it!

this is the most appreciated episode you have for trabaho. Your passion and enthusiasm in your content is amazing. Keep safe Ms. Jessica. Thank you for featuring the process of buko. ❤❤❤
Nakaka-inspire ka lalo Jessica, for making these kind of content. You don't need to overact things rather experiencing these types of occupation first hand. I really commend you for that. More power for this series. Hopefully, Season 3?
Jessica is super coooooollll..climbing coconut trees is no joke, dangerous and you need to be fit to handle the climb..galeng galeng naman ni jessica..keep safe lagi and fighting!!!
She's like the second version of Sandara Park but ofc no one can top Sandy's love for PH.😊 I'm sorry Jess but we love u too❤

*Ang tapang mo Jessica lee!*
❤ You're the Best!
Thank you for genuinely loving the Philippines. Even some of us filipinos can't do what you just did here. I'm a new follower and I can say it's worth it.
Juskooooo! Of all your trabaho series dito ako kinabahan talaga. Nakakalokaaaa! Don't skip ads guys ❤❤❤
I love how wholesome Jessica is. While everyone else dreams big and expensive, her dream was simply to climb a buko tree hahaha! and she did it! Congratulations, Jessica! Another item checked off your bucket list. This episode was so much fun to watch. 😍😍😍

Thank you for showing Trabaho series, jessica! I really adore your perseverance in doing this kind of vlogs!
Proud of u jessica alot of filipinos can’t actually do this, props to the owner and the workers for taking priority in her safety❤️
I am back to where I became first hooked kay Jessica Lee. 😁 All through out ng Trabaho series makikita mo talaga ung focus and dedication ni Jessica para matutuo ng maayos and do the job perfectly kahit ilang oras niya lang gagawin. Also, I noticed, her favorite words: Vibes, OG Vibes, Grabe, Galing. More power to you and enjoy!😁
Next Trabaho:
Mineral Water station crew
20:56 One of the hardest things to take on and she does it all to share with us the work behind the things we enjoy. Thank you Ms. Jessica ❤ I appreciate buko more than ever now!
I am so impressed with Jessica, she is Korean but has a Filipino heart
Wow! So proud of you, Jessica! Congratulations on climbing the buko tree! It made my heart race while you were climbing, but you did a great job. Thank you for featuring our mabubuko and vendors. I’m so happy watching your vlog. More vlogs, please! 🤍
Really amazing! Shout out to you, Jessica for trying out different trabaho in the Philippines. It's not easy, they just do it easy for family. Shout out to all Filipinos who works harder each day. May God bless you! ❤
Love how you’re trying different things and bringing light how hard Filipinos work. Great show!❤
... I'm so elated that you're back in your trabaho series, Jessica. We love you ...❤...
This is a very cool video I thoroughly enjoyed the climbing part of the video. It very nice of you to give the climbers props and respect for the very hazardous part of climbing!
Kudos, Jessica! This vlog is really helpful, even for us Filipinos. It gave more insight into the lives of the buko vendors, made me respect them more, and encouraged me to patronize their products. Thank you for this-again, a top-tier vlog. Informative yet entertaining. The best!
A real kudos to jessica for climbing a buko tree, its one of the hardest jobs and i was really worried yet she did it very well! A hardworking korean pinay ❤
Am I just not updated with Jessica? But content like this, such as the "Trabaho Series," truly deserves a recognition! I hope more viewers, especially our fellow Filipinos, will appreciate you even more-by embracing and showcasing Filipino culture on a global platform. Always rooting for you, Jessica! Galing galing! 👏🏻
This may be THE BEST, trabaho episode and hardest. wth. napaka technical ng pagbubuko. Intense. Very very good content ate jess! haha
Agreed if not one of the best, this definitely the hardest as of now.

When I saw this I realized that u are capable of doing it because u have been climbing for months and kudos to you, to the team and also sa ate buyer at Kay kuya for assisting u at pag insist talaga to do the harness for ur safety kasi mahirap talaga yan kahit kami may farm na buko never ako nag try na mag akyat din talaga hehe hanggang hakot tsaka, pag biak nang buko, lugit, bilad sa araw etc.

GRABE KA JESSICA!!!!! SO PROUD OF YOU! ANG GALINGGG! sobrang cute mo sa part na to 28:30 - 28:32
J.Lee and team are real ones for the ‘Trabaho’ series. She immerses, albeit intro level, into these jobs and the whole team captures the ups and downs of a day in their shoes.
For future episode, I’d like to nominate coffee beans grown in Philippines.
The coffee grind/coffee culture, not counting the sugary sachets, I desperately want to see
Cheers JL and team!
