  • This is our first time seeing the damage that Typhoon Odette has done to Siargao island. Walking out from our house in Pilar Philippines and reacting to the amount of destruction that the super Typhoon did is painful to watch.
    Our names are Jmayel, Sacha & Story. We traveled to Siargao island with Jmayel's mum & Story's grandma just before the Global pandemic that sent the whole planet into quarantine. We got stranded for months and fell in love with island life, now we want to make that life more permanent.

    We filipino used to have these kind of catastrophes but one thing we knew is to stand up and rise again and never ever forget that God is always there to guide and help us. And thank God that we are still alive. The important thing is we are alive.
    Filipino wisdom "hanggat my buhay may pag-Asa" (as long as we are alive there's always hope). Don't lose hope guys. Everything will pass

    There is an important lesson opportunity for Story here. You need to stay strong and demonstrate to her that no matter how bad things get in life, there is always hope for the future. I was in Kruger National Park many years ago. A Ranger told me that yes Elephants can be destructive. But often that destruction creates circumstances for new growth. For example tearing a bow off a tree allows plants to germinate and grow in the shelter of that discarded dead branch. Your priorities are right. Get the house weatherproof. Then I'd clear up the broken glass so that in particular Poppy does not injure herself and can run free. I think the purchase of a chainsaw might be a useful tool to turn those trees into manageable logs. The place will look a whole lot better once those trees are removed.

    My girlfriend and I stayed in this exact house in January 2018 for 10 days when we were in Siargao. We just happened to type in Siargao on CZcams to see the storm damage and we came across your video and we were absolutely shocked that you are staying in the same exact place. We have so many memories there. When you showed the dad it brought back so many memories. He is so hardworking and a really nice person. We are so glad that you all are okay.

      This is a common sight in the Philippines, we are the shield of asia when it comes to typhoons.
      I've always attributed the fact that the Philippines is so awfully prone to natural calamities that contribute to the fatalistic optimism of the people because that is the only way to move forward.

    Your windows were vulnerable to strong wind because they're too wide and no permanent partitions in between. External concrete frames around it will also help cut the entire impact of the wind. I really hope you recover soon. I'm one of the Yolanda (2013) survivors as well, this is relatable and painful to watch. It brings back the terrifying memories. It feels like it happened just yesterday. 😥

      @Philball and who in their decent mind decided to not evacuate from their home located by the shore? I think you took the comment literally. Resilient, in win com's sentence, means being persevering in times of difficulty. Resilient in his/her statement does not refer to an act of standing still against a strong gush of wind by the shore. Be analytical before and cautious about commenting next time.

      Resiliency is not a good thing and shouldn't be seen in a positive light. What we should do as 'Filipinos' is to improve infrastructure, invent things that will help us protect against storms. Build things that will complement storms, especially a way of harnessing a great deal of energy from these storms. We should be more productive, not resilient.

As Jessa Soliano posted, story is a "ray of sunshine". Some people see the glass half empty and some see it half full. Story see's the glass full to the brim. That way of looking at life when things have gone horribly wrong will serve her well as an adult. Story reminds me of Titanic's "Unsinkable Molly Brown". We all really need a person like that in times of crisis to give Hope and a Ray of Sunshine.
