Hello Marco. I am from General Santos City. Thank you for featuring our city on your vlog. Hope you enjoy your stay here in the Philippines. Take care brother
Great video bro! lol watching this because I will be exploring Davao for a month and making videos, trying to see how the situation is there. good insight! seems like when you are in the central areas of Davao everything is good?
#2 There were no bus's that fancy when I first got to the PH. boy they are nice. Not even in Seattle are the bus's that nice. Of course I haven't had to be on a bus for 15 plus years.
#7 Yes, it was about Christmas time when you mentioned you were in the Cebu area. I missed the part where we could have met. I would have loved that. I am sure we can connect some time. 😀
husband speaking Mr. Marco you are getting closer to Cebu, would love to meet you in person. but, will settle for your stories, always fun and exciting.
the check point is not only for security but also use for foot and mouth desease control and prevention where you need to step on the ground with medical sanitation specially entering agricultural region
few cases of foot and mouth disease in philippines, altho there have been occurrences in the Cordillera. African Swine Fever [ASF] has been spreading since 2019 - reduced the pig population from close to 13m to under 10m in the last 5 years.
#4 you needing a Coke reminded me of the time I was on a Military Hop from Wash. State to Ark. to see my brother. There was a stop along the way, at night, and I desperately wanted a Coke and no change. All I needed was a dime. The price of a full size Coke, 58 years ago. One of the Sgts. walking around felt sorry for an Airman 2nd class and just gave me one.
Checkpoint is always because Phill. Democracy and eny country are comings he did not know her we are so godbless and welcome injoy all around Phill....godbless....
HELLO BROTHER IM FROM PHILIPPINES... MINDANAO ..I live in GENSAN. Im also a TRICYCLE DRIVER...next time don't ride a tricycle with a not for hire sign because they are illegal. You will be charged a lot with not for hire written... .Go to the yellow plate without not for hire written because that is the real LEGAL and they are the only ones with the franchise of the CITY MAYOR, POLICE AND LTO because they are not charged you a lot. GO FIND FRANCHISE TRICYCLES WITHOUT NOT FOR HIRE WRITTEN (ONLY YELLOW PLATE ) because they LEGAL AND IT HAVES PERMIT TO WORK AS TRICYCLE DRIVER.. DONT GO PICK GREEN PLATE,BLACK PLATE AND ESPECIALLY NO COLOR TRICYCLE OR NO PLATE.... BECAUSE THE DONT HAVE PERMIT TO WORK AS TRICYCLE DRIVER...THE DONT HAVE PROFESSIONAL LICE , AND THE DONT HAVE ORCR (The Official Receipt (OR) and Certificate of Registration (CR)
Hey man thanks for letting me know. I knew there was something up because they all say “not for hire” I knew it was a law or a way for them to not have to pay tax
your not far from my filipina girl shes in iligan having an operation on her arm today so im bit apprehensive at the moment looks like a nice place davao
@@marcoroams yeah haha once you're here in marikina city the shoe capital of the Philippines and enjoy your lovely adventure here in the Pilipinas mabuhay! God bless you always bro
Can I respectfully suggest that if you have uneaten leftover food after your restaurant meal, you ask the waiter to bag/box it up to go. If you don't want it then it won't be difficult to find someone who does. They are often just outside the door hoping that someone will give them food.
You do make a very good point and I should have done that. It was an oversight on my part. It was not good at all, very doughy and not nice, but I’m sure someone would have ate it
That condo with cracks because of earthquake the city engineering department should issue a "TEMPORARILY STOP OPERATION" if no repair/renovation being done.
I live in davao and married to a girl from bukidnon, the stops wont like your sarcasm or jokes, davao is cool. Go to matina town square, its a heap of small bars in a small area ...they also have s and r there which is costco so they sell aussie meat and food Also be careful, i was in roxas a few years ago when they blew it sky high.....
Yeah, I remember the earthquake well, think it was 6.9 if I remember correctly. I was in the Avida Towers on the 6th or 7th floor. The plaster started to fall down on the floor. I looked out the window and the water from the main pool down below was washing over into the kiddies pool. There was no screaming or anything like that inside the building. We all went down the emergency exit and hung around outside on the street for a little over an hour before security allowed us back in.
#6 final comment, check point - about 1985 (?) my wife and I had just arrived in Cebu with another family and were taking a Jeepney across the only bridge at the time from Mactan Island to Cebu. At the far end was a military blockade, two guards. We stopped, of course, everyone was ordered out of the bus. I stayed in, the other family bargained for their release and my wife told one guard to come to her Aunt's home the next day. We were on our way. The soldier showed up the next morning to get his gift "bribe". Her Aunt looked at him and said, " I know you and I know your officer in charge, get out of here "
#5 Mr. Marco, the pizza can't be too much, a man your size should eat both and still want more. My wife also likes chili pepper flakes on her slice. I'm ok without.
Even the kitty was having no part of the pepperoni! haha...nah, I think he got scared cuz there were so many people, they are finicky eaters tho...my cat mostly just likes cheese or cheese flavored human food! lol...should've called him Cheeto 😆
Holy F!! This video will attract the attention of the city government's building officials. Avida got through the initial inspection but seeing the damage im guessing they will inspect it again.
Should’ve taken out the leftover pizza and gave it to people outside or homeless. They can’t afford to eat out like you! But thanks for sharing to the cat!🤠😎
I think you missed going inside the building to do the security check. That's kinda funny, I thought they would like stop you from leaving or something.
You're suppose to enter in the scanning room and get your bag scanned 😅 lucky you the army assigned that day are not so strict, maybe because you are a foreigner? We all know Filipinos, despite their rank and status, favors the foreigner than the locals.

the bus's that nice. Of course I haven't had to be on a bus for 15 plus years.
15 plus years is a long time.... a lot has changed since you last rode one.
Roxas Night Market in Davao City is my favorite night market in the world. 😊
Crikey, if it's your favourite in the world, you obviously have never been anywhere or another Asian country than Davo😅
Keep safe marco
Davaoueños poop is dangerous.😆
It seems that you bypassed the inspection process, your bag did not passed thru the scanner at the checkpoint
#7 Yes, it was about Christmas time when you mentioned you were in the Cebu area. I missed the part where
we could have met. I would have loved that. I am sure we can connect some time. 😀
Next time I am there I will send you a message somehow
husband speaking Mr. Marco you are getting closer to Cebu, would love to meet you in person. but, will
settle for your stories, always fun and exciting.
I was in Cebu about a month ago! I thought you knew I was there, I told you in one of the comment replies, I would have come and said hi 👋🏽

New subscriber here!👍❤️🇵🇭🙏
Welcome 🤗
9:50 you skipped the bag check. you should've went into that green container van for the bag x-ray. lol
Stick to the vegetarian option Marco always better!! 😊
You have a good one there. I know uwil enjoy ur trip.. 😮😅
I live in davao and married to a girl from bukidnon, the stops wont like your sarcasm or jokes, davao is cool. Go to matina town square, its a heap of small bars in a small area ...they also have s and r there which is costco so they sell aussie meat and food
Also be careful, i was in roxas a few years ago when they blew it sky high.....
Yeah mate I am enjoying Davao! Yes I want to check out MTS
@@marcoroams MTS is not far from where we usually stay when we’re in Davao. It’s a good place to grab a San Mig.
Yeah, I remember the earthquake well, think it was 6.9 if I remember correctly. I was in the Avida Towers on the 6th or 7th floor. The plaster started to fall down on the floor. I looked out the window and the water from the main pool down below was washing over into the kiddies pool. There was no screaming or anything like that inside the building. We all went down the emergency exit and hung around outside on the street for a little over an hour before security allowed us back in.
Wow that’s crazy! Yeah I heard the stories of that building too during the earthquake
hello my guy, you're supposed to enter the container van, they have baggage scanner there 😅
Thanks!
Thank you brother! Always appreciate your support
That Aussie accent, good day mate, oy oy oy
😁
Marco finally realising his aussie accent is thick was soooo funny 😂
Haha I thought it was quite normal …
Boundary spotted, security check before entering to Davao City
#6 final comment, check point - about 1985 (?) my wife and I had just arrived in Cebu with another family
and were taking a Jeepney across the only bridge at the time from Mactan Island to Cebu. At the far end was a
military blockade, two guards. We stopped, of course, everyone was ordered out of the bus. I stayed in, the other
family bargained for their release and my wife told one guard to come to her Aunt's home the next day. We were
on our way. The soldier showed up the next morning to get his gift "bribe". Her Aunt looked at him and said, " I know
you and I know your officer in charge, get out of here "
Ahh wow! That’s crazy, I’d hope that kind of think doesn’t go on anymore.
But you have been here a long time!
#5 Mr. Marco, the pizza can't be too much, a man your size should eat both and still want more. My wife also
likes chili pepper flakes on her slice. I'm ok without.
😂 I’ve been there before! I used to eat 2, but have been well fed lately and not had too much for dinner
Only yanks eat that much pizza I guess
When I was Marco's age for sure, today at 81 just 3 slices.@@OhhhhhhKKAAAYYYYYY
Hey Buddy have u any plans to visit Laos?Cool place bro!.
Yeah mate but I decided not to last minute
New subscriber watching from oman 🇴🇲
Awesome! Welcome 🙏🏽
Even the kitty was having no part of the pepperoni! haha...nah, I think he got scared cuz there were so many people, they are finicky eaters tho...my cat mostly just likes cheese or cheese flavored human food! lol...should've called him Cheeto 😆
Haha yeah should have given him cheese!!
@@marcoroams well, Next time you'll know lol
Watching you from Melbourne Australia but originally from pakistan 🇵🇰
Thank you! I will go to Pakistan soon 🙏🏽
Thumbs up keep safe
Do you plan on going to iligan, my partner comes from there, I'd like to see your perspective on iligan
I was there for about 4 nights but wasn’t in a vlogging mood
❤
Marco, I've noticed the girl behind you was different from your other video?😛😛😛😛😛
Lol this guy forgot the meaning of checkpoint in a seconds. He thought that's a tourist Bus rent.😂
😂
I was about to invest on getting a unit on one of those towers, and I guess right now I will just to look somewhere else
😅😅😅
pepperoni wasn't even good enough for the cat 😂
Wait I know that that’s the place we go home when my dad come back from the ship it’s really rare or common
Holy F!! This video will attract the attention of the city government's building officials. Avida got through the initial inspection but seeing the damage im guessing they will inspect it again.
Apparently it’s been checked over .. they are fixing all the cracks now, they say they are only the facade not structural
shout-out watching from gensan😅
The Army did not check your bags because they know who's they are looking. Our men in uniforms are trained to know whos suspicious and whos not.
I am glad they know I am not dodgy and just vlogger having fun!!
Are you guys scared to go to North Mindanao (Cagayan de Oro, Misamis Oriental, Bukidnon)?
Lol no
👍🏻✌🏻
Dude those pizzas looks rough!
Lol top one is good, bottom terrible
pilian pud ning iringa i haha
LOL your companion (the lady) is acts so pretententious! 😂 😅
She’s no pretentious at all, she’s actually really chill and just an introvert and not a loud person
Should’ve taken out the leftover pizza and gave it to people outside or homeless. They can’t afford to eat out like you! But thanks for sharing to the cat!🤠😎
Yeah I know I should have hey! I didn’t even think about that because it was so terrible
@@marcoroams that’s what I see with other bloggers and I thought that was a good idea! Just sharing brother. Have fun always and be careful!🤠😎
👍👍👍👍
when you lost your bus i got nervous for you, the girl just went on to the check point thinking you were behind her lol
Hahaha I completely went the wrong way
I think you missed going inside the building to do the security check. That's kinda funny, I thought they would like stop you from leaving or something.
Haha yeah. That’s why I named the video this… people shouldn’t be as silly as me and pay attention
You're suppose to enter in the scanning room and get your bag scanned 😅 lucky you the army assigned that day are not so strict, maybe because you are a foreigner? We all know Filipinos, despite their rank and status, favors the foreigner than the locals.
Um, buses have toilets on them in Australia too, lol 😂
😂😂😂 I don’t catch busses in AUS … I drive everywhere or planes / trains
😂😂😂 I don’t catch busses in AUS … I drive everywhere or planes / trains
The cat was saying "please not that nasty pepperoni"
😂😂😂
Enjoy in Davao it’s my place

Mate the cat's not going to eat spicy peperoni!! You'd have been better off giving it the cheese.
Yeah good point
i think the hotel is going down anytime soon
