Such a fresh and bright face… your smile and aura is overflowing with positivity…
Oh thanks!! 😀😀
@@fonsiabroadYour such a handsome blogger.. hope to bump with you soon in BGC or in Makati.
I recently visited Makati and BGC for the second time and found them great places to stay. I know it's not fair to compare these cities to a popular nomad destination, but Bali has a better community for nomads. However, Filipinos speaking English well certainly makes it an attractive place to stay for an extended time. I shared my experiences on my channel-definitely a city worth exploring as a digital nomad.
I hope these vloggers will stop saying, "Everyone speaks English...", about Filipinos cause that's not entirely true. I can understand where he's coming from but if he gets out of BGC and meet the real locals he'll realize that not everyone can English.
@@solkalibri1376 Yeah true, not everyone speaks English there since it's not their main language, but maybe at least 70% do speak and understand the language
Thanks to your honest reaction to our beloved Philippines
If most tourists , businessmen ,etc, could have that positiveness like you Fonsi , the more people of the world , what most Filipinos are . Individual like you are likely appreciated , and true enough with that gorgeous look ...
Living in metro manila is quite pricey, so we do hope that you have a huge savings, Plan A until Plan E for you to earn money there while still being able to sustain yourself and living comfortable.
Great video, Fonsi 😊
Very informative and interesting to learn so many things about Manila.
If times are good, in the furute I'll visit the place for sure and I'll have YOU to thank! 👍
Have an amazing time in Peru 🦙🦙🦙
Im sure you’d love it Hristo! Thanks 🦙

Love the way you explore each and every thing... Lots of love from India ❤🧡💛💙
thanks Fonsi for choosing Philippines
Love the Philippines!
Really fun watching your videos! So cute. 😁
Good news if you are a Spain citizens, the govern of Spain and the Philippines are now working agreements that a Spanish citizen can have a dual citizenship. There are now lots of agreements bilateral that includes business and cultural.
Wow this is why I love your vlog its very informative and you love our country The Philippines that's why we love you and your always welcome here, your one of the adopted son of Makati:) again please come home soon i hope to meet you❤😊
Adopted son of Makati, I love that 😄 miss the Philippines, can’t wait to be back
Eton Towers, beke nemen. These foreign vloggers are doing a better job promoting PH destinations, accomodations, restaurants, than the tourism and trade department - for free.
*_I'm excited for the Meet & Greet, Alfonso... as you have promised._* ☺
Yeees when I’m back I’ll do it :)
True enough , you're the most pleasing , gorgeous media guy of all , my baby boy . With you being real and direct personality, you amaze me more of that sweet and infectious smile . More power to your dreams and undertakings . ...

Nice! Pretty accurate video I would say, maybe I should do a video about the top 5 digital nomad working cafes when I'm back 😁
Thank you! And yees you should 🙌 thank you for showing me so many great and livable spots for digital nomads in Manila, Tim!! Missing the city and you guys now :)
oh yesss, hopefully for good my love fonsi ..
Thank you so much for your very positive feedback about Manila.
I love this city 🌃🇵🇭
get a modeling job as well. I'm sure you'll get tons of commercials. Also learn tagalog, since spanish is 15-30% are used in our language
BGC and Makati are the great choices when you stay in the Philippines because there are so many stores, malls, bars restaurants with that areas. So hope you enjoy buddy and keep safe👍🫠
Welcome bro♥️♥️♥️
Very informative vlog.always watching your vlog about Philt.
Thank you!!! 😀😀
Eastwood, Quezon city is also nice , it's like San Francisco. The condo is not so pricey. And wifi connection is good.
You are most handsome foreign vlogger I have watched in the Philippines
You should put Belize in your list. I have not been there yet, I would like to see from your prospective. 👍
Wow ... Amazing content

Hola Fonsi que tal?
You should visit mi ciudad colonial de Vigan up north in provincia de Ilocos Sur, una ciudad UNESCO heritage city for its best preserved spanish architecture and also best for its food like empanadas!
PH is the best place to start up vlogging career💯
Welcome to Metro Manila 👏
Yeah . Get a modelling job or join pilipino celebrity while you there in the Philippines. You are gorgeous , sweet, charismatic guy. So i don't think you have trouble getting that kind of job.😁💕😘
Very nice 😊 welcome to manila ♥️
I miss my country, enjoy your stay there…
i went to Makati....hope to vidit BGC someday
Fonsi, much better to go somewhere around the philippines in times of Occasion/Religious Fiest, or Cultural Festival. Just search in it google when the exact date to come/visit the place. Especially in Manila during Translacion or January 9, then Tondo during Sto. Nino Festival, then april i think in San juan Manila. In translacion you see millions of people gather in quiapo church and it is one of kind experience and you will never forget it.
Godbless, and someday i will meet you in person🤗
I honestly thought you said "WIFES" instead of "WIFI" in the intro
❤❤❤
Great video! Did you encounter many earthquakes in your travels to the Philippines?
Yes I did! One in Siargao back in 2023, the whole room was shaking but nothing happened :)
Beautiful voice
❤❤
Awesome 👏
Subway is on going constructions, no more problems with traffic when it's done.
Sounds awesome!! Looking forward to that, making Manila even better :)
@@fonsiabroad
Hola amigo.
Mire el proyecto en construcción en todo Filipinas. El aeropuerto más grande del sudeste asiático se está construyendo en Bulacan desde la recuperación del mar hasta la bahía de Manila y Sangley Point en Cavite. Metro y ferrocarril pnr de norte a sur. Manila pronto será de fácil acceso.
@@fonsiabroad
U check the projects in metro Manila alone is billions of dollars govt spends in the constructions
Did you see the reclamation projects in the mall of Asia area?
Manila bay will be soon full of new business district high end business district.

If you check iin and living in slum area... You will see the fact of the philippines indeed.
It's a open book in the Philippines. There is an opulent area and there is the depressed area and there's a middle class area. You just have to choose which you could afford.
I just want to show the creator how the phiilippines was... He always compair between Thailand and the plhilippines.Suŗe everyone has it"s own idea..,
"When love and then love will not quit.But choose to love in way that do not cause pain to themselves"@@ormsaustriavlogs4453
Where do you do laundry?
Be careful when you say pollution? Where on the planet are you from? Is your country exempted from that?! Common
Well car traffic makes it pretty hard to breathe in rush hour, that’s a fact. Doesn’t mean Manila is not a good city, I love it!! but it’s something to have in mind, especially while going on a bike wearing a mask helps :)
we need more cutees in manila!!!
Are you here in the Philippines bro?
Not now, now in Peru
Philippines
Have you ever been to mindanao?
Haven’t been yet 🙌
@@fonsiabroad You should have it in your budcketlist to visit Camiguin Island. 👍🏻
@@fonsiabroadTry nature trippin' in Bukidnon. You won't regret it 😉

@fonsi abroad Have you ever been to India?
Not yet but I’d love to visit soon! Such a vast and diverse country!!
@@fonsiabroad If you are ever in India, I have a request. Can you record yogis performing miracles such as levitation and the ability to materialize? I know that many of them are frauds, but there are certain yogis who practice higher yoga systems, e.g. surat shabd yoga or bakhti yoga, and they actually have such powers (siddhi). Many of them are in the city of Varanasi. I have been interested in this topic for a long time.
What you thing about collaboration with #kellykorea
You show yourself youngman...not Manila...
Damn! You are so cute!
Hi Pogi, dont you know you can be an actor or model in Philippines ? You are soooo good looking. By the way thank you thank you for promoting Philippines.❤
Are you single? How’s the dating there?
I find much better place to stay is Cebu you have everything and is a very modern City, the Airport in Mactan is also very close. Manila is simple to big, traffic is horrible. Cebu you have everthing and the way's much shorter.
I like Cebu, both cool places to enjoy some city life :)
it's almost unfair that the clean quiet subdivisions south of Manila are never mentioned. I live in an area called Alabang Hills and where I live is very safe and quiet. Actually there are a lot of gated subdivisions south of Manila in the cities of Muntinlupa Parañaque and Las Piñas where going to Makati and BGC is relatively easy because we have the convenience of sky ways. Going to cooler climates is much easier too places like Tagaytay or nuvali villages here in the south are very secure because practically every village is a dated community that do not allow just anyone to enter. there are also access to very good schools and hospitals
