Get used to hearing, “Out of stock.” In stores they love to say that if they don’t know or are too lazy to look. I heard that once, kept looking and found it. I learned to take a picture and show that. It works.

I have spent the last 3 or 4 YEARS preparing myself for the madness that is the Philippines. Working on my patience ,, working on not getting angry ,, etc etc
@@kellypadgett2350 - For the solar power (solar panels, etc.) how do go about that in Phils? Do you contact a local solar power company to purchase solar panels, or do you have to contact a company outside the Phils and have to panels sent to you? What are the different types and estimate costs? Is there a company website to go to in order to find out more information? Thank you.
in 1975, when I was 12, we lived on Guam for a year, and the second super typhoon was a direct hit and basically leveled everything. But it rained almost every day so we used roof runoff water for showers off the back porch and filling up the toilet tank. We drank the non-roof caught water and a tablespoon of bleach per quart (yukk). We left back for the CONUS 6 weeks later, water service was just getting restored in areas, electricity was still weeks away. I can understand that for a reason,. But it seems like the Philippines has almost regular brownout/blackouts for no reason? I know I'm spoiled, but reliable utilities is really nice.
Well, a person can either live like the Amish people without electricity and other modern conveniences, or a person can live in modern times with technology. As long as you know what you're getting into and have prepared for it, then you should be fine.
Just spent a week in Marrakech meeting my Filipina friend and they turned the water off to the whole city for 2 days just as the temperature jumped 10 degrees to the mid 30s 😱 my Philippines survival training is almost complete 😂
Since this happens pretty regularly, maybe the thing to do is to have a little resort you can visit for the day and keep your schedule on track. Think that's what I'd do. Glad you're enjoying your life. Great mindset and good example for others. Make lemonade. Edit: Ahh, you usually go to a resort. Nice! BTW, I gave up sugar in all forms years ago. Sweet potatoes taste like cake now. Amazing how the body adjusts.
I don’t think I could put up with the heat and Filipino food. Next would be electrical brownouts, lack of potable water, government bureaucracy, bad roads, mosquitoes, and humidity, but that is all daily life in the Philippines and you must get used to it.
@@jemezfun9767 It is very very gross, but u can buys your own food and make it. I lived in cebu city for 7 years, there were so many western style restaurants that served good food. But if u are on a budget then better to make your own, if u are in the province then goodluck with the food
Great show guys the restaurants look great and we'll try them out I really think there more brown outs here in Bohol it's really just part of living in the Philippines
A better choice would be Stevia. I buy them in boxes of 100. I have my own coffee maker and S&R Has Kirkland's Colombian dark roast coffee in 3lb cans. When we build, we intend to be off grid.
Stevia drops are the healthiest sugar substitute. Also monk fruit is good but more expensive. I was thinking I remember you mentioning you had tried stevia. Maybe not. If you did, did you like it?
@@GiointhePhilippines - In the Phils do they have those water collection systems (large basins for collecting and storing rain water) for situations when water pumps run dry or if a person is not near a well or does not get their water from the city's water supply?
We’re going to have solar AND a gas generator. I want a back-up water tank too, but my girlfriend insists that they never have water issues in the subdivision where we bought land. Never is a long time, but there are some big houses in the development so maybe they give our subdivision priority?
Here in "the province" about 2 hours north of Dumguete, we've been warned of water restrictions if this heat/dry spell keeps up; predicted to go into May. As for power, we experience blackouts (lets call them what they are) at least weekly but never for more than an hour or so. There's scheduled maintenance about every 6-8 weeks for about 10 hours at a time with no power. The unscheduled stuff is mainly due to the road upgrade from Dumaguete up the border near San Carlos and the workers not looking up when moving around plant machinery. Same goes for internet connections on the unscheduled front. On the upside, it's shaved a fair bit of time off and made the drive to Duma much easier where the roadworks are completed. The heat is affecting the power in that much of the infrastructure is poorly maintained and insulated against heat and additionally heavier loads on an inadequate system due to the heat and people running more AC and fans etc. It's a common problem even in some areas of Australia during heat waves.
Yeah I lose running water in my province area to Gio and brownouts at the same time I have a clean garbage can full of water for emergencies in my shower room and I remember I had an all day brownout in my area and then a thunder storm knocked out my power for 6 hours and of course you remember typhon Odette I had no electricity for more than a month like most people who went through it. December 16 2000 something and then I got power back January 16 at around 6PM. My water pipes burst in my area mainly because it rains really hard I plan on getting some portable power supplies when my mom goes to visit my sister back in America it can be really useful over here
The Sans Rival has those delicious cakes next door! You gotta try some. I actually prefer the Tabo showers to the Western style ones. Started doing them in Bohol and now I'm hooked. They are somehow more refreshing
fixing a dried up well in a day would be remarkable even in the US. 1-3 days to get someone out to look at it and one to two days of working on it. good luck! buy water!
How often does the power go off in the Philippines? I assume it’s different per area, but is it a quite common occurrence? Also, these artificial sweeteners are toxic chemical poisons. You are much better off with sugar. Better alternative is agave, date sugar or coconut sugar 🐸✌🏽
Many years ago in the UK in a major city (Leeds) a major water main burst leaving several hundred homes without water. We went to our local leisure centre (gym & pool) to shower.😊
Hi Gio, I watch TV patrol om UA-cam here in the states, is the water crisis getting better or worse, I have friends in the Philippines and I'm hearing it depends on where you are, so how is it in your area ?
We went to change some money at a local BDO bank in Pasay City. Very nice facility, didn't wait in line. It did take the clerk 45 munutes to exchange $1000. Bill inspection, paperwork....hmmm, long process....BDO currency exchange inside MOA took only 10 minutes and they even accepted the less than perfect bills. I can't wrap my mind around this experience.
Oh yes, the quirkiness of the Philippines. I'm surprised what your ordered wasn't out of stock. At least the resturant and gym have power/generators. I quit sugar in my coffee about 5 years ago. You'll get use to it to the point you won't be able to drink coffee with sugar.
I have been retired in the Cebu metro area for a year and a half and I only have seen the power blink off for less than a minute. Never had any issues with water. Cities seem to have fewer problems like this
Moving to the Philippines this year, hopefully. But I am going to live off grid. I lived off grid in the USA half my life with better electricity than the nearest city. I love the Philippines. I love the incompetence of the government. America is headed toward a digital currency which is super scary. The Philippines will never be able to go to a digital currency when they can't keep the lights on.
@@nadiajurasek186 - Well, cash is king. Saying you're a millionaire and not being liquid enough to have cash on hand to buy a cheeseburger doesn't really help you.
I'm 5 hours north of Dumaguete. Rarely have brownnouts. If we do, they only last for about 2 hours.We're on city water and have a water tank. No problems there. When I first came to the Philippines we stayed in the Dumegette/Valencia area and we had brownouts 2 or 3 times a week and sometimes they'd last most of the day. Unbelievable. What can I say. Welcome to the Philippines.

@@GiointhePhilippines well, considering there are countries where they have no idea about what an espresso is, I don't take it as a given that they know it in the Philippines.
You can import solar products duty free, they all come from china. There are pretty large battery packs which can manage fairly extended brownouts as long as you don't use the AC.
Well, Thailand seems to be a little more developed in certain areas than the Phils. You don't hear about too many black outs/brown outs or water problems in Thailand as you do in the Phils. Also, the infrastructure in Thailand seems a little more developed. You don't hear people having wi-fi or other internet connectivity issues in Thailand either.
650usd for no electricity or water sounds like a real winner what a sh$thole in thailand pay half as much for twice the quality and no blackouts ever been there a decade
Good place to hang out and the staff are well dressed in their uniform, i like the wavy writing on your video ( Viewer from Adelaide e,g. ) and a caesar salad fan ( would not have known Gio ), I was a salad hand years ago in Wellington, a salad was returned as the lady did not want a lemon herb dressing that was tangy , and for me to do another new one ! oh no ! I said so I just scrapped it off and returned it to the waiter, he returned and said to me You know that salad that needed the dressing removed , I thought oh shit has had a reaction from the little bit that may have been left ! he continued she said it was the best antipasta salad she had ever eaten ! YES ! ha ha , cheers and beers Gio and Maya .
Not water and no electric ……. It’s more fun in the Philippines…. ( ??? ) I dunno bout that. But you’ve got a great lady and that makes up for a lot of ills. Be well and enjoy…..
LOL Gio Splenda is all natural and is 40 times sweeter than sugar, easy there only need a little. Also, Splenda has no effect on the pancreas and insulin levels, which is good.
I have had times when they said they didn't have something, like the Cesar salad, then i start asking them if they have the separate ingredients and i tell them to bring me the ingredients so I can make my own salad. As soon as they find out I'm going to use the ingredients to make what they said wasn't available, suddenly they aren't going to bring me the separate ingredients any more. Very strange culture indeed. They have to save face because they said the salad wasn't available. They can't have me prove that the salad is in fact available.
Solar power equipment is at an all-time low due to China's economic collapse. It won't last. If you don't gear up now, you have no one to blame but yourself.
You need a back up Generator and a water tank. Typical third world country probs power failures and water problems.. Enjoy .. watching from Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean.
Its funny I would not move to the Philippines because of brown or black outs. I need dependable power. Where do I live? California where they is going to be generation shortages because of the Green Power wave and the power take downs because of fire dangers in the summer. The world is going to be shut down no matter where you move.
Get used to hearing, “Out of stock.” In stores they love to say that if they don’t know or are too lazy to look. I heard that once, kept looking and found it. I learned to take a picture and show that. It works.
Good tip. One of the many things a person who doesn't live in the Phils to learn about before moving there. 👌

If available, you might try stevia or truvia as a sweetener. Made from natural natural ingredients not chemicals.
I ordered Truvia on Amazon.
Equal is the only artificial sweetener that actually taste sweet to me.
i buy Monk fruit sugar in cebu city,,,
Just spent a week in Marrakech meeting my Filipina friend and they turned the water off to the whole city for 2 days just as the temperature jumped 10 degrees to the mid 30s 😱 my Philippines survival training is almost complete 😂
All solvable problems Water tanks. Pumps, solar, generators, batteries Had them all cost 1 to 2%
I use a little sugar with my artificial sweetener. A teaspoon of sugar and 4 equal for a 12 oz. Keurig made coffee.
Best tasting and least toxic sugar substitute I have found is concentrated monkfruit juice. 8oz. jar lasts over three months.
Whoa! That's a conundrum!! Basic necessities, none! Hope it's restored soon. 🙀💧⚡
Just a day fortunately
This was a terrific video I liked to tell you where you are interacting with the other people there
Thank you I appreciate it.

So true!
Stevia drops are the healthiest sugar substitute. Also monk fruit is good but more expensive. I was thinking I remember you mentioning you had tried stevia. Maybe not. If you did, did you like it?
