Surviving Philippines MOST EXTREME Mountains! Rocky Rice Terraces (Tacadang, Benguet)
SURVIVING PHILIPPINES MOST EXTREME MOUNTAINS IS NOT EASY.
But these amazing humans have managed it.
Atop the rocky mounds of Tacadang, part of Kibungan in Benguet, in a landscape that reminds me of Machu Picchu, are rice terraces built over 100 years ago.
The road getting here is new and rough (but better than trekking a steep uphill for 6 hours!) and the view phenomenal.
Visiting the rice terraces, I was amazed by the hard work that goes into repairing them, the hospitable culture, and the final steep climb to a burial cave...
What an adventure this was.

Finding Philippines COLDEST Barangay! Benguet's BISAYA Vegetable Farmers!
zhlédnutí 56KPřed 12 hodinami
IT'S HOT IN THE LOWLANDS OF THE PHILIPPINES RIGHT NOW. So I went on a mission to find the Philippines COLDEST barangay - a place called Madaymen in Kibungan, Benguet! And the vegetable farmers there speak Bisaya! From Solano in Nueva Vizcaya I ascend to Ifugao, first visiting the Kiangan Shrine where Yamashita surrendered in WW2. Then over the highest point of the Philippines highway network in...

My Filipino Friend and King Of Motovloggers and Influencers has been working on Alitaptap Beyskamp (which I've had a nosebleed looking at and Englishified in the thumbnail) just outside Solano.

TWO DAYS OF EXPLORING PHILIPPINES ISOLATED AURORA COAST ALL THE WAY TO DINAPIGUE, ISABELA!

TRAVELLING FROM MINDANAO TO LUZON BY LAND TRIP IS NOT EASY. But it can be done. 1650KMs in 3 long days - this was a great first experience with my new Suzuki V-Strom 250! From Davao City, I headed north to Lipata port in Surigao, and got lucky by getting a boat that hadn't quite been cleared to leave! Then I take a new road from San Ricardo port on Panaon Island around its eastern side, with so...

OUR FRIEND DAVE IS BUYING GOATS IN DATU PIANG! Datu Piang is unique, named for a 19th century Chinese-Maguindanaoan leader, the descendant of one of the Chinese merchants who migrated to this town on the edge of Liguasan Marsh. And the town has a cool, historic vibe - and you can still see the Chinese bloodline in the faces of many of the people here! We start in T'Boli and it's the Tuesday Mar...

MY DAD IS LEAVING THE PHILIPPINES. It was an emotional last day as we remembered the trip and even the years before. But it was a worthwhile one all the same. From Filipino classics for lunch (what does my dad think of bagoong?) to pasalubong to searching for fruit out of season, and of course my dad's honest thoughts on the Philippines! It's an emotional goodbye - and until next time! From Dav...

PHILIPPINES SQUID FISHING IN SOUTHERN LEYTE'S WHALE SHARK CAPITAL, PINTUYAN! Locals call this "pygmy squid". They told me that this seafood, found in the shallow bay, doesn't grow any larger than this. At 5:30pm, just as the sun is setting, an armada of small fishing boats go out into the bay for around an hour, just enough time to drop these improvised fishing lines into the water and hook squ...

When it's hot, wear white thin long sleeves, love road trips, but take the rush out of it, take your time and enjoy.
Thank you for another instructive, heart-warming and calming vlog, Kumander!

This vlog is worth subscribing to. Great contents and there are more to explore in the Philippines with its 7K plus islands. Keep it up, you are doing a good job.
My new fave video. Officially my new fave phil vlogger. Saludo Kumander!
What an amazing video! I've been to Takadang by hiking for 8 hours then another 4 hours to Palina, almost 25 years ago. Except for the newly built roads, seems not much have changed. That basi is the most memorable part of my visit, the best tasting wine I've had. So envigorating!
Stunning location! Thanks for sharing
😅 KD Store! Also nice that you noticed the trees along the new highway. Ma’am Lanny and her farm is lodi. This is a refreshing trip…love it!
Thank you for the great adventure ! You are showing parts of the country in a different perspective!!! Be safe and keep your sense of humor !!

Wow meron pala neto! Tourism biyahe ni drew anu na!! 😂😂😂

Thank you for sharing with us your experience.

It’s beautiful and magical place the people there are so hardworking and very hospitable that how we cordilleran’s is! Thank you comander daot for your appreciation
I have been following your Vlogs for quite sometime now. This one is your crowning glory for Luzon Island... Hoping and praying you'll have in Mindanao and Visayas too..MABUHAY KA ANSELM-KUMANDER DAOT❣️
I love watching your videos. Better than documentaries produced by big tv networks in the Philippines ✌️
That's our life when we were kids everytime we go home we have to travel up and down to the mountains for almost 8 hrs it's good that there are guava trees in our path that we used to pick the fruits and eat along the way, we also cross rivers to cool ourselves
@Kumander Daot, your vlogs would rival the national geographic. Yours is better being so close and personal with the locals!
BEAUTIFUL 😻 BUMPY&. 〰️➰&. SCARY 😱
Wait... legs over your head? That is just wrong. Get well soon.

Thank you kumander Daot for bringing us there in that majestic place... unbelievable. Breathtaking and majestic that you can't believe that this universe was really created by GOD...how I wish I can able to experience GOD'S most precious creations...but through your blog we can see what's other part of this country, the Philippines..thank you..
