Siargao Lockdown Day 6 - Impressed With The Filipino People
Vložit
- čas přidán 22. 03. 2020
- March 23rd 2020 - It's Day 6 of the Siargao Island Philippines Lockdown and the emergency protocols are officially still restricting movement. But in reality the police and army checkpoints have eased off and the locals have told us that we can now venture outside a little bit.
We took the opportunity to take the Tuk Tuk for a drive to get some supplies from the local shops in the village and report on how it feels to be out during this Covid-19 Lockdown.
Since arriving in the Philippines we have been very impressed with the Filipino people and the way they have coped with this crisis so far. Despite being a little shaken up by the mandatory lockdown movement and police checks, we understand why they are important for these little islands to remain virus free.
It's also very impressive how the Filipino people have almost completely banned single use plastics and know how to live self sufficiently by growing their own food and running small local businesses within the community. Nothing is being panic bought or hoarded here on the island of Siargao and we feel very safe and happy to have been stranded here, rather than anywhere else.
It was nice to be out today and see things ticking over calmly. We had a few warnings about snakes reappearing on the island due to there being less people around. And we heard our favourite bird the Asian Koel calling for the first time since we left Thailand.
We are feeling good today!
For now we are going to upload a daily video diary of the Siargao Island Lockdown scenario. This is day 6. Our regular family travel vlogs will resume publishing later.

I have found that Filipino people are some of the nicest most friendly people you will run in to and overall are a happy group and very welcoming..L.A Rob
Agreed wholeheartedly but be careful. They have strange ways of thinking and you can easily piss them off whereupon they turn completly nasty to the point of murder.
@@Kitiwake seems u are Spaniards, Americans or Japanese hahaha we only kill those who come to inslave & disrespect us😁😁😁😁😁😁😁 it's like "TREAT US THE WAY U WANTED TO BE TREATED BY US".... peace be with u😊😊😊😊😊
Well I'm a filipina I think there's always something different in any race we're just like normally nice to everyone, it's like treat others nicely so they treat you nice as well like in the golden rule "don't do to others what you don't want to do to you " that quote I always hear when I was young 😄
she look like moana hahahha
@@lindziep6319 Yes i too live by the same rule ( The Golden Rule. ) L.A Rob
When you walk in the grass, stamp your feet from time to time. The snakes will feel the stronger vibrations and will tend to move away and hide until the big heavy creature that made them goes away. Most snakebites happen when the snake is surprised and bites in reflex because the victim is too close to move away from.
Right. I have been doing that since I was a kid. I stomped my feet feet hard in every step especially in the night., coz I grew up in the mountain farmland.
Now I know. Thanks 😊
In global crisis like this the province is the best place to be.
Very true. People can actually get some food from nature. Clean air. Nice people.
Yes but people need to stay where they are and im glad filipinos did not travel much back to their provinces. Because chances are they might spread it out on peaceful province like this, and hospitals there are not equipped for such calamity.
Manila is packed with 5G tower
.. more people died.. in the village,there's no 5G..you guys are safe...
@@SpiritualWorshipers 5G is to be used in the 666 program. It does not cause the viruz though.
best example of social distancing, the houses itself. :;)
we are in health crisis...filipinos are used to calamities and disasters...they can take care of your safety..
Filipino people are very friendly and resilient. Stay safe. Siargao is not a bad place to get locked down.
But some people who were stranded in unlocated islands are the lucky ones
ikr. no cases there
In siargao to be specific
I’m in QC and there are cases near me rn. It’s scary.
Little Moana of the Siargao Philippines. Your daughter is so lovable kids.
Welcome to the Philippines!
I'm a nurse from Davao.
Feel @ home...
stay safe and God bless you! 😊
That little girl will remember this for the rest of her life. She reminds me of little Moana.
Your daughter is so adorable. She puts a smile on our face.
shes trully like little moana.shes so pretty & very smart too.
FYI burning of leaves is one way of killing bugs pestering the trees coz we don't have pesticides in the old days.
That’s right killing the virus too afraid from heat and smoke.
@Ganda Gandara I think he meant the virus from the trees, not virus found in a person. It is a common scientific practice. Even the government endorses killing trees infected with virus this way (burning it) as a safe disposal method. And two for one, it can also be used as firewood for outdoor cooking.
Or maybe what he meant by "bugs" are insects that damage the trees' leaves and fruits. Could be for plant virus too tho
Agree
Theres a myth as well abt burning leaves keeps the snakes away.
This is actually what a Travel Vlog should be featuring, live like a Filipino and experience their way of living! Well I understand, this kind of video content happened due to the lockdown. But I would suggest this to be a content as it truly promotes Travel Vlogging, true Traveller! Very cute little girl btw. 🇵🇭❤
Lorry Lorry strongly agree. Live like how the people live. Adapt the culture and try to learn it.
Its like an episode of survivor... The silver lining of all these is we go back to the basic and let Mother Earth heals... Thanks for sharing
You guys got sooo lucky to get stranded in such a beautiful place. That view and scenery, the way you get food and the place your staying seems to repel the panic factor of a pandemic. Looking at your video relaxes me and makes me feel as if there isnt even a coronavirus sweeping across the land.
😍
Agree
I'm happy to see you again in your channel! I liked your adorable and smart kid! I like you both also cause your a very strong person like us Filipinos!!!God be with you all the way!!!
awww I love Story🥰
She's such a ray of sunshine!!
Your daughter is so adorable, gorgeous and smart, in times of this uncertainty, she’s the happy pill ...😍👍😃
Do you agree that they're daughter could be the endorser of fruits especially the pineapple...
how rude of you alex
They're there deer dear dare
You’re lucky you’re in the Philippines 🇵🇭
You two are truly liberating.
You've got an adorable daughter there.
We are homeschooling for 7 years now. And we can say that it is one of the best decisions we've made as a family.
Keep safe in Siargao!
Luv luv your daughter... she's so smart and thank you for appreciating us Pinoys. Hugs to all of you and be safe!
Your daughter is so smart, she will grow up to be a nice lady and beautiful 😊
Glad seeing again a big smile on your faces guys.happy you gone out and bought some foods in the market... Keep healthy and stay positive . A
Adorable daughter, nice family. Stay safe and healthy while you're stranded in a paradise island. ❤🤗
Story is so cute and smart! She is such a blessing to both of you.
she's really an angel into your house, she so adorable and gives you happiness at all times...God bless you all and stay safe...
I'm happy to see your new vlog with your aura calm down now. Wishing you all the best. Hoping everything will be back to normal soon. Im a filipino working in thailand and is on quarantine for two weeks now. Was suppose to fly back to Philippines last March but didn't make it due to lockdown. Wheeew this is life...Smile...
Story is sweet because you two are such sweethearts, thank you, stay safe and well x
I have been watching your videos since day 1 of this lockdown and to be honest, I have never seen such optimistic people in a such tragic situation. May you remain positive and safe and continue bringing happiness to people. That little girl of yours is precious! Be safe guys!
Guys don't let your daughter walk by herself around the beach snake everywhere during this hot season.Oh Moana is so cute❤❤ glad your quarantine period is Paradise and most veggie and fruits in the local store are organic, you are safe there compare to Manila .ohh honestly I watched your vlog 2x then I subcribed. ❤❤❤
I remember when we were kids we always carry a 12 foot bamboo shoot and use that to stamp the ground to scare away creepy crawlers.
Yes! Me and my Siblings were never without a stick or long umbrella when in the province. We're always with Auntie, Kuya, friends! 🌺💕🌴💋
Wow...a beautiful family with a cute and smart daughter
Beautiful family Godbless
Thank you for appreciating Filipino culture and enjoy staying a while in the midst of the lockdown.
so much love the philippines. your family be gonna safe there surely..
Nice to see you guys are doing well. You're actually lucky to be stuck in an island. Siargao is quite self sustaining so there should be no shortage of food and there's a lot of sari-sari stores for basic goods. Times like these you get to enjoy the simpler things in life and I love your channel for showing that. Stay safe and stay well, looking forward to your next video.
Made me smile when she said, "I am Moana!" So adorable.
I have had a Breakdown and your Videos are the Only Thing that is making me feel better about Living still Thank you for the people you all are I love you all And It restores my faith in people
We've been making your bean chili each week and eating it over potato wedges like chili fries❣️ Thanks for all the hard work you put into making it❣️
Story is so cute....& so "grown-up". Makes me smile all the time... :)
You got the best quarantine place..
Always be safe God bless.
Watching you guys is such a relieve coz you feel secure in our country.I hope you are always safe and enjoy your stay here.
Story is very conversant. It's very evident that you spend a lot of time with her, which is always good. She puts a smile to every person's face be it in person or the vid.
I make it a point to submerge the money I got from the sellers in disinfectant solution and let it air dry. As for fruits and veggies, peel theouter layer first before consuming (apples, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc). Washing ain't gonna do anything to keep it off....or submerge in rolling boiling water for 5-10 seconds if u really do want to eat the skin. Packs and cans of grocery items, wash it with soap and water before storing.
My heart melted with your little moana. She's too cute! She's the best part of this video. She's just like my little princess too. (heart)
Lovely couple, what a cute daughter you both have... Feel Safe to stay in Siargao The 🇵🇭...
That child is priceless.....so terribly smart.. well done you two, great parents..
I love how informative your vlogs are and how u support and respect the locals! Keep safe karajao🤙🤙🤙
I'm so glad you're safe and in a very peaceful spot.
Story is so cute and intelligent. Glad to know you're much happier than a couple of days ago. Living simple is the way to go.
I truly love all your videos. Watching Story grow up makes my day. You are fantastic parents. God must have protected you by sending you to this beautiful island . Do not even think about leaving. You are in the safest place there.
I’m glad you’re loving the Philippines during these hard times in the world! We’re warm and always welcoming. The best fruits is in the Philippines. I love the Saba banana and the Carabao mangoes are amazing as smoothies because it’s already sweet without the artificial flavors.
Living vicariously through 8milesfromhome and NoTime2bsad. Both couples "stranded" on tropical islands. Appreciate y'all bringing us along on your adventures, Jay, Sasha -- and "Moana." Story is so precious. Great videos and helps pass some of the time. More places are going full lock down, so keep the videos coming. Stay safe!
This delightful family gives me hope for humanity.
Beautiful place Uv got... It's like Ur in a paradise... Im glad watching bcoz the place is very calming to see... And beautiful family as well...

Beautiful daughter of yours and a very smart one..
Your daughter is adorable. Hope you guys have a safe stay in Siargao. God bless.

Love village living! Real people, real food
so happy to see you that despite of being stuck here in our country, you learned to live like us though it's hard for you to adjust with the food and cultures. Hope you guys will leave the Philippines fruitful in knowledge and have a great moments each day. God Bless🙏
Hope's to see you soon MOANA🥰 WOULD be lovely ❤ watching from Manchester 🥰take care guys❤
I subscribed many years ago when you were living with your family in the Philippines and your back. Nice to see you again. Welcome back. Stay safe.
I love your family, so down to Earth and simple. Watching you guys brings a smile to my face even at this hard time. I miss the beach and you guys look like you are living a dream in Siargao. Stormy is Moana, no arguing, such a cutie pie. Take care guys and keep safe and healthy.
Story is so precious! I love watching you guys! Glad to see y'all are happier today! Looking forward to the next video!!
Very cute couple with adorable and beautiful kid. Keep safe...
haaay, coffee + sound of the ocean breeze perfect combination, so relaxing
Thank you for these vlogs. It helps a lot seeing the reality of the situation back home. God bless You guys!
No case of the sickness there. While we are full of uncertainty in Metro Manila right now. I really envy you guys.

Palawan is also 100% virus free. We are very strict here on abiding by the regulations of the quarantine to keep it that way.
But unfortunately foreigners like this seem to think laws don’t apply to them. And they are finding out the hard way that there are penalties for trying to avoid checkpoints. Seeing the disrespect it’s really insulting.
So glad to feel how your spirits have risen. You truly are very lucky to be stuck where you are. Perhaps not the best financial option, but your purse will recover quite well soon enough. Enjoy the wonderful gift you’ve been given. ✌️
Your daughter is so adorable and sweet 😍 and I really love both the tone of your voices when sharing your stories kinda genuine and angelic😊
Thank you for believing our fellow filipinos. so empresed for this video..may our god take care of you family. Happy to see your family in a good place to live in. quarantine
how wonnderful family esp. juana is cute, god bless. frm: california
Yay...an adorable moana in siargao island..for real😍,stay safe!
this is the first video watchin' 8 miles from home and subscribing.. love watching the lockdown journey guys 👏👍
Hi guys while scrolling for videos. I saw yours, I'm from Manila, Phil. It's good to watch warm and positive people like you, especially on this situation. You are lucky to be on the island of Siargao. Keep safe!
That's a good looking house you are staying. The deck is huge; perfect for the beach front.
There is a doctor there. You just have to go to the Municipal Health Office of the Town of General Luna if needed. Snakes are cold blooded animals so they do not go to hot areas (specially on open spaces with plenty of sunlight). They usually stay in cool areas (holes, caves) away from sunlight. Stay positive, healthy and be happy. You are in the paradise.
i love it problima galing nilang mag Engles hahaha😆😆😆😁😁😁
Its so nice to watch your video that you enjoyed a lot staying philippines. I enjoyed how your daughter spoke.
I just love your daughter. I got 2. I am subscribing as you 3 are amazing. It just hit on my heart you both are lovely people.
i can't believe you even considered leaving. so blessed
Are you crazy?
you guys still in high spirit which is good. Personally, I rather stuck in a place like that versus big city
She's so adorable 💖 yeah, you are right, it feels good to support little stores. 🙏
Thanks for sharing this...missing the province life....glad you guys are still having fun...and safe....
Im so jealous, I would rather be stranded in siargao than where I call home. Hit up cloud 9 for me
There is no place in PH i'd rather .
-from someone living in Cebu City/Makati city
That little chitchat at the end with your lovely daughter is what we all need right now. You guys are lucky to be in that paradise while being in ECQ or lockdown. Yor daughter is the cutest!!😍 Subbed.
This video is so heartwarming. I just love your family ❤️
Just love watching you guys. Yes your daughter is so cute....I'm glad your family is safe. Watching from Florida and your quarantine is way better than mine. I miss my country. Be safe.
Thank you very much. I really missed the countryside. Amid this emergency health crisis, I wish I could go to my mom's hometown, Catanduanes.
