- Only in the Philippines...
Bohol, Philippines has much more to offer than just the chocolate hills. Bohol, Philippines has some of the clearest water and nicest beaches I've ever visited. In this video I meet friendly Filipinos on my water to Anda, Bohol, which is now one of my favorite towns in the Philippines. This is the first video of the Anda, Bohol series in the Philippines!

That guy who sang could really converse, I mean all of them. Their limited English still made the vlogger able to understand what they were trying to say and they made him feel so comfortable. There's that famous Filipino warmth at work here. I'm just so proud being Filipino.
I definitely agree!
In English, the word "tuba" refers to a coconut wine, and "Tungog" (Mangrover tanbark) is the name given to the Tanbark that was used to flavor the wine. It facilitates the agitation of coconut wineIt or it aids in fermenting, making the wine out of the coconut wine. Particularly after fermenting for a little while longer, the fermented coconut wines can be made into coconut vinegar. We Filipinos jokingly refer to the farmer whose source of income is harvesting coconut wine from the coconut tree as a "Coconut Pilot." We Filipinos invented the term "Coconut Pilot" because climbing a coconut tree, especially one that is very tall and high, is dangerous and requires courage. "Hak-Hak" refers to the curving steps on a coconut trunk as "coconut notches" because they resemble a v shape, and that's where the coconut pilot steps on it to climb the coconut tree easily. However, certain Southeast Asians have their own method of climbing the coconut, notches on the trunk of coconut trees are only visible in the Philippines. "Butay" (boo-tie) is a coconut spade or coconut flower; the young coconut spade is where the coconut wine is produced.
"Tuba" a.k.a. the "brick layer", we jokingly refer to it as that because if you drink too much of it, the heat it creates inside your body is so very dehydrating that you end up shitting bricks the next day.
Grandpa's favorite 😍
Drenched with rain water and drenched with filipino kindness and hospitality. Another wonderful day, Jonathan. 👍❤️
In the Philippines both the rain water and the Filipino kindness and hospitality are warm.
I agree!
The hospitality and friendliness of Filipino is alive
Filipino are so hospitable. Saying this not because im a filipino lol But travelled to southeast asia already and yeah Pinoy are hospitable
I completely agree!
It's why I plan to spend most of my time in the Philippines when I visit Asia.
Absolutely true❤
Filipinos are the most hospitable ppl in the entire world. Everytime I go I have to force myself to leave lol. 😂
To foreigners, or to all?🤩
Travel Escapes, the ONLY channel I "like" the video before watching it. Hope you're well, Jonathan!
I love reading this! Thank you for that!
Hello hope you enjoy your stay take care
same here❤
Genuine hospitality will always be part of your travels there. To offer a stranger something , be it a simple drink or a meager meal is considered a blessing and we always believe that kindness will be reciprocated back in some way, so don't ever feel weird for not paying or even feel obligated to do so. Filipinos will be content with a simple gesture of genuine appreciation.
Sending you warm Pinoy vibes from Philadelphia 😊
I agree! I see this hospitality all the time here in the Philippines! Thank you so much for watching!
your personality gives off positive vibes. You’re smiling & not afraid of trying different things Power on, Jonathan. I love your channel.
I just have to go with the flow! Filipinos make it very easy to be positive!
Aloha from Hawaii Sir, it is so awesome to see travel vlogs presented in English. I am filipino by decent, but I was born and raised on Oahu, Hawaii. I'm a retired Police Sergeant. I do NOT speak Tagalog, or any dialect of the Philippines.........so I really appreciate you travel vlogs......in English. Great job my brother. God Bless !!!
Haha well fortunately for you I don’t can’t speak Tagalog either. Thank you for watching!! I’ll keep posting in English haha and Aloha!
I love and appreciate the way you deal with the locals
Stay safe brother
It’s actually considered “coconut wine” cause it’s already fermented.
Oooo thanks for the info! I didn’t know anything about it
Most vinegar in the Philippines came from coconut and the fermented one try it its called Lambanog as strong as vodka or even stronger. The fresh one its tuba the one you drink.
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL coconut sap (tuba) is the fresh harvested liquid from the coconut flower, if fermented for 3-4 weeks the product is vinegar and if longer fermentation is done the product is Lambanog (wine). There's also a hot process in producing lambanog (wine) from coconut sap.
I love Tuba, the most fresh coconut wine there is. I wish I can have some right now but nothing here in US. Loving my countrymen, so hospitable and so fun 👍. 🇵🇭🫶
You're one of the best vlogger i like on how easy for you to interact with filipinos and how genuine you are . Very open to learn our culture..😊 keep it up and take care!
Thank you so much!! Ingat also!
That's coconut wine "tuba". When it's freshly harvested it's very sweet but it will slowly ferment as days go by then turn into coconut vinegar "suka"
I just love watching your channel, ie, the beauty of the islands, the provinces, the infectious hospitality and friendliness of the locals; Being able to sample the cuisines.
thank you so much for watching!
Ooooo I love this! Thanks for bringing us closer to the Philippines through your videos. Interacting with locals is the best and of course, the lovely beaches. I haven’t been there in over a decade. Thank you ! ❤🙏
Can’t wait for part 2!
I think there will be 4 or 5 parts to this series! Thanks for watching!
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL cool! Even better. Been waiting for your new videos lol
Finally a new video after 2 weeks 😂 I googled Tuba for you to help you understand more. "Coconut Wine or Tuba is a sweet, fresh or mildly fermented sap taken from tapping the young expanded flowers of the coconut. It is popularly known locally as “Jungle wine,” it is also called coconut toddy. The tuba is poured into a fermentation vessel where it becomes vinegar after a couple of weeks or months when it reaches its natural acidity level". Watching from Cebu. Please come visit our place again soon. Amping Jonathan.
I can see in your eyes Jonathan that you are a kind person. I've been watching your Channel since the first time you came in the Philippines. I like that you always smile. I hope you'll never get tired making videos in Philippines. I'm hoping also that you will have a collaboration with Becoming Filipino.
I cant wait for the whole series! Good on you, my man.
I loved your videos. Thank you for visiting our beautiful country. Yeah it is so true Filipinos are very hospitable. Enjoy your visit there! I just subscribed to your channel!
I am excited and I can't wait for part 2!❤😊 watching from HongKong! Mabuhay and enjoy exploring our beloved Country Philippines!!!❤😊
Happened to run into your vlogs. Thank you for featuring Bohol and it's people. Excited to visit the Philippines at the end of the month and spend time in Bohol to visit my mom's family land. Thanks for your vlog!
Jonathan , this episode is incredible the views the people are just amazing stay safe and stay friendly you’ll be able to stay in the Philippines for as long as you would like , welcome to the provinces🥰

that guy hust wanted you to have a drink with him, clearly he knows his english, he easily could have said coconut wine rather than coconut juice, anyways, Thank you Jonathan for also being so accomodating and receptive to Filipinos, they genuinelly just want to know you and have you for conpany. youre a nice person.
Hi Jonathan, am watching all your Philippines trip. Thank you so much for loving our country especially the people. I admire what you are doing. I wish to invite you one day when I will be in the Philippines and I wish to retire too soon. Am originally from Guindulman Bohol. I got emotional every time I watched your videos. Let me know when you plan of going to Mati City in Davao. I can accommodate your stay for free. There are nice beaches also in the area. Shout out to my family in Guindulman and Pilar, Bohol! The Escol, Berindes, Case and Paulines families! Amping kanunay! -from Toronto, Canada.
You always find the coolest places. Looking forward to the rest of the series.🙌🏻
Nice one Jonathan, great job! I’m excited and happy for you. Always be careful and enjoy your journey at all times.👍✌️🙏😎
The is the best local interaction I’ve seen so far. I’ve been watching vloggers come & go in the Phil’s but nothing beat this particular episode, specially the first part with the guy who sang. Jon you got good conversations skills. Good luck and always safety first.
Great tourist-video with tourist-selfies. Keep up the good work!
Was just in Bohol and was extremely happy with how kind people were. We were up in Panglao and had an awesome time. You should go on the island hopping tour and see the virgin island. It's amazing.
Truth is, of the many different Filipinos i mingled with and lived with, generally, BOHOLANOS are the most down-to-earth, kindest & respectful ❤
It’s true. They are genuine, honest and God-fearing. My mom came from Bohol so I know.
Your convo with Kuyas in white is one of the sweetest interactions i've seen bet. a foreign vlogger and locals. You are already adapting to our culture. Keep it up, Jonathan!
I really enjoy watching you wt local Pinoy having a nice conversation , they are really nice local people , and friendly hospitable
Hi Jonathan, great scenery and such friendly and helpful people. Looking forward to part 2 of the video.
Hi Ben! All true! I’m working on part 2 already. This series will actually have 4 or 5 videos I think. I just kept the camera rolling for the whole trip since I loved this town so much, the water was unbelievable. Thanks for watching, Ben!
Just subscribed to your channel, makes me excited to return there again to that beautiful country of the Philippines!
This makes me homesick my hometown bohol.I can’t wait to go back there for good.
ANDA! That's where my beloved late Filipina-Immigrant Mother was born ... ANDA! I am looking forward to that ... THANK YOU Jonathan! THANK YOU! Sending Love from Canada.
thank you!!! Jonathan
It is so nice of you to promote the businesses of people.
This was a good video. It’s fun to watch especially how you can easily blend in with Filipinos. It’s really amazing to travel around the Philippines. I hope you keep on exploring and capturing these moments because there’s a lot to see for sure!
thank you so much for watching!!
Onlu in the Philippines talaga ang mga Pinoy pag dating sa Inglesan kahit dika maka buo ng sentence nagkakaintindihan padin Tayo pag my mga kausap tayong mga dayuhan. Mas magaling padin tayo mag Ingles kesa sa ibang mga lahi. Kahit hirap tayo makipag communicate sa foreigner naiintindihan padin nila tayo at Da best talaga basta pinoy yeah boy
Hi Jonathan. Love this video. Can't wait to check out Bohol
Wow super nice place 👍nindot gyud kaayo
as a filipino watching this, i cannot stop laughing... i miss our humor haha
"a long head full of wisdom" 😂
@@travelescapesOFFICIAL its a filipino humor😂
I've seen many videos from you and I'm just realizing that you show a type of genuine appreciation to the people there which is unlike some other traveling CZcamsrs.
I love it.
Subscribed.
Hey thanks for saying that! I always try to show respect, especially if a local shows me kindness and hospitality, I’m very appreciative of that! Thanks for watching and the sub!
We call it "Tuba" or "coconut wine" here in the province of the Philippines. A Filipino alcoholic beverage created from the sap of various species of palm trees or coconut tree.
I'm always excited to see and watch your vlog 😊
You're enjoying my country & the filipino friendliness & hospitality.Thank you❤
I’ve never met so many nice people in my travels. I’m enjoying your work/play!
Godbless your journey sir .. bohol is very beautiful place .. amping ug ayo ayo..
We've been in Panglao back in 2008. Its been awhile I love to go back. Good places finding, Travel Scapes.
Super vlog ❤❤❤i love people from Bohol and the whole Philippines ❤❤❤super happy episode this one ❤❤❤
WOW!!!
Welcome to Anda man👏.
So Peaceful... And
So Beautiful...
I agree.
Our Town is Not so Crowded.
Blue Ocean and a Blue Sky you'll see.
I'm from bohol,thank you for this video jonathan coz i feel like im in bohol right now😊 i miss so much my beloved province. . .
It's the first time I seen one of your videos and really enjoyed it. I would only suggest two others to always have a song or a poem ready to recite to people who are generous with their own songs. Whether or not you can, give it a go and it will always be appreciated. Even grunting out American Pie would be appreciated. The only other suggestion I would make is that after the fifth time they did not want to receive the money I would just let it go. These are proud people and like to give when they can. Looking forward to more videos.
Thank u for featuring our country., Enjoy ur stay ❤
Oh wow love the people. That local family is amazing specially the father. 😁
Beautiful personalized song for you - 😂so spontaneous - so much enjoyed your interactions. Amping
Enjoy your diving time and be safe! Thanks for sharing this video ❤.

Welcome to the Philippines... Jonathan... Enjoy your trip...
Please. More series of this place Jonathan. Make 3 or 4. Thanks
I stayed in 1Peace early 2020. It’s being managed by French crew. During my stay, there were lots of Germans and mostly Europeans who dive. I just stayed to relax and read. The water is beautiful. The sand is powdery white. I enjoyed their dinner fellowship but thought the food was not enough for a dozen of us. 😅
Enjoy your stay there!
As always, thank you for sharing your video. I would have not seen this part of the Philippines if it wasn’t for you Sir. 🙏
Thanks for sharing your amazing video

Welcome to bohol philippines enjoy my friend
Wow what a great video. Dad really liked you, maybe even for his daughter. I've never seen coconut water that color before. 😂
You could teach in the Philippines as another source of income while you enjoy your adventures there.
For me who can’t travel domestically (yet) as I live abroad, I’m learning a lot about my country 🇵🇭more thru your videos. Another fun one! Keep exploring and thank you for bringing us/me there! 👍🙏❤️ - sending ❤️ from 🇺🇸
Anda is a great find Jonathan! Enjoy and have fun!
I love it! I probably have 4. or 5 videos coming out from Anda!
Nice meeting a friend in Bohol Mr Jonathan jejej always be friend with my co Filipinos sir-enjoy
Hi Jonathan tuba come from the sap of the coconut. They ferment it for several days then it’s ready to be served. I’m happy that you enjoyed the Philippines. Thanks for sharing because it reminds us of home. We also live in the United States.
Hey Jonathan! Anda is where my mom used to live before she went to Manila to look for better fortune way back in the 50s. If you arrive there, look up the Licongs and the Makinanos they're my relatives. Safe travels!
Hi Jonathan! You live a comfortable life in the U. S, and I admire that you love staying here in the Philippines inspite of the simplicity of life (poorness, poverty) you see in our country. Many foreign vloggers do stay in the comfortness of BGC and MAKATI. But you, you don't choose your crowd. You prepare the happiness you get from people with scarcity in life.
Welcome to my ancentors province. its my lola's hometown. my brother live there now. Anda. Enjoy and have fun. explore the otherside of Bohol.
Happy mothers day to your mom jonathan everybody are celebrating today in the philippines all resto here in manila are busy and malls.hope you celebrate too with our locals.🤩😄✌👍🙏🇵🇭
