Alex seems like a really great guy. Very humble and clearly very successful.
Agree, he seemed very humble guy.
I bet you’ll be at 500 k by the end of the year you do some quality content man! Keep up the good work!!😊
Wow well I'd be happy to have 100k again but I like your number better
Beautiful place I love 💗 philippins 🇵🇭
I would just leave it natural. What great place. Thank you for sharing. I love his hut❤

Finn Snow, from Iceland a famous lover of the Philippines and diving, now calls Dauin his home. He now runs a diving cruise ship with a fellow expat. He is now building a hilltop home with his Filipina partner, Sherlyn. He knows Dauin life quite well. He has his own CZcams channel.
I have seen a video or two if his, and he was mentioned often when I was in Dumaguete
Also Finn Snow's friend and fellow CZcams vlogger Critter Hunter.
@@edisonuy7707 both cool people 😎
Critter Hunter is in the process of rebuilding a dive boat. I've learned about Philippine boat rebuilding from his channel.
Alex seems very cool 😎🤙 I agree, magnificent property! It's got everything. Nice view, lovely beach, But also some altitude to protect against storm surge. And I say his traditional hut looks super cozy! Notice that you can see light through the flooring, the whole place is designed to let air flow through it instead of block it. So if you get some major storm, The house acts more like a screen than a window and less stress is put on the structure from the blowing wind.
You have great content. Someday, my family and I will head there. Can't wait to retire, scuba, and live the island life.
Beautiful potential for the property
Those free lawn mowers aren't John "Deers". That's why. You must miss hockey. Austin Matthews is having a great season so far
I’m so glad you’re keeping up with your channel. I really enjoy your videos. I never miss one.
Thanks so much
Jackfruit seeds can be boiled or roasted. Taste like chestnut.
Beautiful property.
Alex got his prime property advertise that expats will adore! I just saw a prefab featured today that will be awesome in this place. Even a capsule house would do. I could hear the wind blow and that is what I want best!
Really really beautiful place hear the waves crash when sleeping must be a dream
@@ThatPhilippinesLife and that!
Very nice property
Hello from Iloilo, wishing I was there!
awesome
That property is great
Just come across your vlog, interesting. Thanks featuring Negros Or /Dauin. We must have passed by this beach area when we did coastal walk from Dumaguete to Antulang, Siaton in 1992. I thought we went inland as we hit the rocky bits by your friend's property as we can't carry on the coastal walk at high tide/rough seas. We come out on a more beachy part of Antulang which belong to Siaton, where our friend at that time started his Beach Resort, the Kokoosnest. Check it out when you have time. Though he's not running it this time, had leased it to couple of Brits, it's a chill place. Your friend Alex has all the reason to come back for good to the Philippines, he has great beach property.
Thanks so much for this
Totally agree, such a wonderful property justifies that 18 year effort to secure it.
Awesome 👏
A lot of young Russians divers goes there in their vblogs , Alex is very humble guy and kind , typical Filipino with big hearth
Hidden gem
I've been in Dauin with Rick , and we stay in Sierra Resort, where the Critter Republic is located. We meet in person Justin & Judia, Elvis & Misty, also Mark a very nice guy who gives us a lesson for a trydive. It's a very nice place and people indeed.
If you time near that area is the antulang beach and koko nest and tambobo bay
Nice 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
Great to see you covered part of Dauin and Tambobo Bay in Siaton, Micheal. What a lovely beach property your friend Alex has. Negros Oriental is beautiful island. Many hidden places to explore. It takes energetic adventurous vlogger like you to show these places. Many visitors of the island only knew Dumaguete and that’s it. Many are all nailed to first impressions of dusty streets, congested roads, old shabby buildings with sometimes some negativity, then they come to conclusions. Thanks for exposing other lovely places of our island. Kudos to your friend Alex who generously showed you around. A great humble guy. Your channel is growing faster😮🎉
Thank you, Alex is an amazing guy
The design of your Alex's property is awesome. That beachfront area reminds me of stuff out of movies. It really is paradise. But very sad about 2011 destroying the aquatic habitat with the coral reef being washed up out of the ocean like that. I don't know if you've ever watched those tv shows that show what happens if people went extinct. It shows how the vegatation takes over ect; that's what the German man, Alex's neighbor's place reminded me of.
I had thought about living on the water before when I was younger, before health problems got bad. I wanted to live on a house boat at a marina in Florida... before I moved here. If i can ever afford a nice size boat (i don't need luxury, like a yacht. Even though they're beautiful), it would be cool to be able to live the "nomad" type life, sailing around the world. But a lot of research on my part will have to be done. Maybe dock in Mexico for awhile near Cabo San Lucas. Learn Portuguese and sail down to Brazìl- who knows- that chapter tor me hasn't been written yet.
Another thing I've seen, when I was with that LDR, we were house hunting online, I found the coolest thing 🤩🤩🤩... even though it's crazy expensive lots of homes in Huntington Beach, California have docks attached to the house. Front door goes out to the street and ho out your back door there's your boat slip. However the ideal would be that but closer to LA fir dance classes, agencies, auditions etc.
So many choices
Not enough money
But change needs to happen
Evolution starts with a single step
Good vid as usual! Mark@Every Man Has A Story. Interviews new comers and vloggers at ground zero. Keep up the good work. Many more subscribers on the way for you. 👍👍👍👍👍
You should look up FinnSnow and Critter Hunter while you are there in Dauin as they run a diving business. Also, Wilma and Greg just built there last year.
Finn snow I know he has a house he is building but wouldn't just show up. Critter we considered going to buy was getting to dark to go there
@@ThatPhilippinesLifeFinn is cool 😎 So is Critter Hunter.
Maybe at some point once your foot is all healed up, maybe plan to meet them, Boston Filipino, Paul the old dog. But regardless, you have the uncanny ability to find new and surprising places even where there are many expats! That's a super handy skill as a vlogger. Video liked 👍💯
This vid brings great memories! Spent summerdays in Dumaguete , San Jose and Bais with college friends some two decades ago.
Here we have Shedd Aquarium which features the Philippine Sea inspired by Apo Island. There is bangka and nipa hut, I feel emersed everytime I go to visit.
Alex’s place is perfect! I’d be a happy hermit there.. maybe 2-3 small huts for family/ friends for when they visit and ocassionally share it’s peace and beauty with..
Up in Southern Alaska they live on little house boats, Tell you for a Sea Bum or Surfer these are Awesome, Rent is like 3000 a month AK, So people rent out their boats but still 1000 or better a month, Your doing great on your channel, Very well narrated and informative, A+ Bro,
Keep Cranking, God Bless Belus
Old but new subscriber. Love your energy!
Looks good 👍🏻
Wow thanks sir for coming my hometown siaton negros oriental
So Nice 👍
I guess, you know that Finn Snow lives in that area too…
Yea I heard several times he lives somewhere near there
That's a true Filipino home. It's got kamungay in the yard.
I love the place it's like those days when I was young😊😊😊
I feel for the guy, if he is a Toronto Maple Leafs fan. The city is flooded every year with the tears of their fans as they realize they either didn't make the playoffs or are one and done in the first round!
beautiful pray 🙏 one day to live their Amen
Dumaguete twin Lake , I suggest you have to see its wonderful ,,
That’s a great property he has. Would be great to put up a bunch of little nice bamboo houses clear some of those trees out for a perfect view of the ocean and he could have a little resort there.
Well done Alex!! Cheers from Calgary
Yea you should collaborate with Finn snow. He has still building his house just out of the town in the hills. Beautiful big house. All off grid. Has a yacht that you can tour the philipines on.
I didn't know any way to contact him and I did see he was very busy with his house build so it seemed too much trouble. Does he do a lot of collabs with small creators?
@@ThatPhilippinesLife yeah he collabed with Mike and Nelly from Making it Happen, and George and Lucy from Juicy vlogs when they were smaller vlogs I think.
@@ThatPhilippinesLife I have messaged him and let him know your in town looking around promoting the area and if they have time could they contact you. I hope they get back to you. Great couple with a very strong future in the philipines. Good luck Micheal. Keep up the great work mate. Hope your big tie gets better soon. Don't let anymore dogs jump on it hehehe. I can only imagine the words said when that happen 😇
Maybe tours on his yacht are dirt cheap? That would be wonderful.
Alex has an awesome piece of land there with so much potential. So many nice places to explore in this area and lots of them are kind of hidden away. I am really enjoying living in this area and only plan to leave if I am going to another part of the Philippines to explore more. I think this would be a good area for you to live and travel from and you have many ways to get around and go to other islands.
Dauin. So you have been to Valencia. There still more towns to visit.
And also been to Bais City
There's a sandbar Manjuyod
8500 vies with 16.5k members is a good number, Michael. Keep grinding. :-)
I'm super grateful, thanks my friend
Hello from San Francisco
Very nice work! So where are you thinking about setting up camp at? Roxas or Duma?
The good thing about having until May is I have time to really make sure, so we will see
Dauin seems a great place. Let us know accommodation options 😁
Tomorrow am video has some rentals
Good morning brother
Hi michael. Bit concerned about your swollen toe. Maybe its a good idea to see a doctor who can prescribe you some antibiotics to bring down the swelling fast and prevent infection. Just my two cents of advice. Stay well.
Shout out from Brampton Ontario Canada 🇨🇦 live your best life canuck
Hey lI ived in Brampton for 3 years or so, northern tip
Nice property You found a good friend in Alex It will be a big work for Alex but it will be rewarding Good luck and God bless
Alex is such a great guy can't wait to see what he does with it all
Another great video, I’m living on my sailboat in Key West Fl. In the Philippines now hope to catch up with you somewhere in route.
How cool would that be! What a journey for you, the stories you could tell my camera after that!
Anyways your videos are great, hitting the point of what i’m interested to know about some places in the Philippines. I lived around Digos city ,Davao Del Sur , Mindanao ..
You can rent a pampboat there and go to apo island a majestic diving site in entire Philippines
I think your channel will grew big😅😅😅good luck I love your channel 😊😊😊
Appreciate your support on my journey, I'm grateful to have you watching
Hi, I enjoy your new channel and wish you the best of luck. I was in Duma last Sept Oct, from Toronto. If I return, this looks like a great place to stay when finally set up. Would be nice to hang out with some fellow Canuks.
Us Canadians are multiplying :)
Our American Guy got murdered there in dauin, him and his wife was house setting for Australian couples from there! They also have their friends with them who were living in Bohol, they were accused of killing their friend. It was very hard for them to get out of Philippines, the two friends and his wife! I feel so bad for their friends who were living in Bohol at the time they were just visiting their friends there in dauin. They have to leave everything and get back to America! Sad 😢!
It's beautiful there but bad memories for our friends! They never find out who killed him!
Thank you for sharing!
Do you know how long ago that was?
Living on a sailboat is difficult for us full figured guys. But a good sized Cat could work but need a lot more money for that!! Fun video - very nice property. Where can I buy a place like that??
There is a lot of land down this way he said it's not hard to find
@@ThatPhilippinesLife - Great !!! Thank You
That is dream property for sure. Like you said. So much potential. But the protected bay properties are where it's at. The stuff of dreams. Did you recount the owners story in another video. That alone is really interesting
He bought the land from his family, or do you mean the German neighbor? That is controversial and since he is neighbors he asked I not share the whole story
Not the neighbor. I get why that story is off limits. I was thinking of Alex, I think that's his name. His whole story sounds interesting. Kinda rags to riches. Great video of an area I'd like to see
@@locker1325agree with you, would live it michael if you interviewed Alex about his life... He's so interesting!
Check out the handicap parking behind you with a motorcycle parked in the middle of it😊
Great vlog thanks for sharing. Where exactly is this place. Luzon, Visayas or Mindanao?
Watching from Davao city.
Stay safe buddy and keep up with the great contents.
Handicapped motorcyclist 😂
I've been to Dauin. I haven't seen its underwater diving scenes, but its beachfront is not that inviting. The only attraction l like in Dauin is the reconstructed/restored Spanish era convent, restored sometime in 1991, if i remember it right, with its creaking second floor wooden floor, purposely designed to creak in order to catch intruders. There is also a peeping hole at the second floor entrance floor, about less than an inch in diameter, designed for the house parish priest to peep down secretly to catch intruders. But the second floor CR or bathroom is completely modern, with white ceramic tiles and a ceramic basin, and completely modern plumbing. The bamboo "amakan" ceiling is imported from Thailand because the Filipino restorers found it better-made than the bamboo amakan made in the Philippines.
Interesting, the beach seemed really nice to me is it because it's too developed for you?
@@ThatPhilippinesLife Not because of any development. It's the beach itself, it has a somber, somewhat dark ambiance, like a desolate place that makes you feel melancholy and prods you to leave immediately.
Negros is much cheaper than panay island as far as rent is concerned.Not sure about groceries compared to panay.Since you spent a lot of time on panay,what do you think.Thanks,Aaron
Beach life, mountain life hands down they have a big advantage for those!
Brother, get that toe checked out!! That’s not good. Love your videos 👍
Try living in Amigos
Where is amigos?
Are you meeting up with Critter Hunter?
If it wasn't getting dark so soon we were planning to buy sadly we spent too much time and couldn't this time
@ 12:07 the money 💰 shot .....
Yes!! Agree that was night and day from up top
Critter hunter Justin has a resort and dive shop downindauvin
We saw the sign but it was getting too late to visit and be able to see anything
I really recommend to visit a doctor again!
Get well soon!
I'm back home so definitely now
@@ThatPhilippinesLife good decision!
Seriously though. Approximately how much time for you to get from Iloilo to Dumaguete. Seems a long way when looking at the map. Like the area of Valencia, but Duain more, but want to avoid Drama-guete if I can...As they say a nice place to visit
It's 6-7 hour bus plus 1.5 hour boat so yes it's very long for me, faster probably to fly to Manila (40 min) then to Duma (45 min)
I think my arms would get super tired flying that long, so maybe the bus....American humor@@ThatPhilippinesLife
Lucky dogs. The whole beach is their toilet. Wish I were a dog. hahahahaha
12k per night resort in the Philippines must be great place
I saw the photos on Facebook and yea the place once you get down to the beach looks epic. And only the two rooms left I guess people agree
How does Dauin compare to Moalboal?
Moalboal is a party town, the entire street fills with people Friday and Saturday night
What's the name of the resort, nearby?? Thank you.
Antulang Beach Resort
@ThatPhilippinesLife Thank you po.
Try the "Tip Top" hotel, right next to Robinson's Mall. It's about P900.00 a night.
I saw there are a few but since I wanted to be close to places down by the waterfront I was limiting the range/distance
@@ThatPhilippinesLife Alrighty. Try Bethel Hotel on the boulevard, too.
Where is this, place in Dumaguete??
He shows it on the map in the first few minutes of the video
That place is Dauin zambuanguita and siaton negros oriental three municipalities that Sir Michael feature
After jumping on your toe is the dog OK? Your toe will heal you big baby but the dog has feelings that matter. LOL
Haha 😂
Last time I asked you, San Joaquin is the place for You, can Dauin be not far behind?
Dauin is more developed so it depends how much of a quiet life you want
Mosquitoes and Typhoons, Really ?. But beach property WOW. Don, California. 1-21-2024.
High winds so misquotes have no chance. I'm very lucky that they hate my blood so I never get bit regardless
mosquitos don't like the taste of Type O blood .@@ThatPhilippinesLife
How about the story of the German that is no longer there?
It's controversial and he still has to live there as neighbors so he asked it be kept private
Gotta watch The Bills defeat the Chiefs first ..... then I will be back.
Update: Bills season has come to an end. See you next year BillsMafia
Heck yea
Go Bills
Where did you get your driver, how much the hiring. Thank you. Cash with senior discount
Alex was a subscriber living in Canada and he came up to me and we chatted and became friends and he offered to show me around since he recently retired back there and was looking to see everything again himself. Great guy!
@@ThatPhilippinesLifethis is like the perfect story for all travellers... I wish for everyone to meet someone like Alex in their lives ☺️
Please have your toe check because it might get infected and the infection ,ight go up to your kidney just like what happened to my cousin. I am just worried.
I was at the Doctor today, lots of meds now
That toe make sure theres no pus if there is that needs to be drain and treated
One rat.😅 London got more than people 😅😂
I think you have fungus, in your big toe, see a Dermatologist
Will be getting it checked out
Dude, enough with your toe...
Fair haha
jUST KEEP DISTANT FROM FINN PLEASE
Why?
Why would you say that and not back up your comment... Finn is as good of a man as Michael is. 😊
Never heard a bad thing about Finn Snow to be honest but I have only seen a few videos in my time with him so I can't say I know much
If your going to make that statement (In all Caps lol) then the next sentence needs to explain why otherwise your comment has no value……
Drama-Gueteeeeee@@paulz6491 Hopefully Michael just ignores all of it
everywhere is 20 minites 😂😂😂😂😂😂 and 5 minute walk to beach 😂😂😂 your full of shi#
Hmm 20 min from Dumaguete to Dauin and then 25 minutes further than Dauin, to his house I think you just misheard. Regardless thanks for sharing your valuable opinion
