    Anne and I go on a hunt for an inexpensive apartment in Angeles City for her brother who plans to move here for a job, some areas we look at are run down and overcrowded (I feel) but the residents there are right at home. I don't get a chance to visit areas like in this video and it made me feel uncomfortable at times walking through some of these tight mysterious corridors but we survived, good thing I had Anne and friend with for some of it.
    Come take a look at a different side of life here in the Philippines...

    Hey, these areas looked very clean and tidy. They dont all look this good. As for the room search. This may have been one where Anne needed to be the one filming, and you needed to stay away. Your being there as a walking ATM, will seriously impact her bargaining and negotiating power on the price.

    • @chubsDubC
      @chubsDubC  Před 5 měsíci +4

      no she let them know and is familiar with Filipino price, they grew up in it and there seems to be an understanding and code 👍
      when it comes to other things we have a system

    This is the Philippines I love to explore as the province is where you meet and see the real Philippines.
    Plus, it's not as scary as the first impression gives you as you are treated very well by the locals.
    To me, it's the reason I go to the Philippines to be out of my comfort zone as the big cities are to westernised for my liking.

    Hello, watching this I can see how you feel out of place sometimes, and I wonder how much of that is the language. I was there when the base was still there, my friends and I came up with a way to talk that bothered our wives/girfriends. Speak in pig latin or english really really fast. You'll be surprised at how little they'll pick up what you say.
