    Growing up, you’re always told of the bad in life, taught to be safe & live life by the book. I’ve commented before saying something somewhat like this about a year ago I wanna say. Anyways, thank you for uploading constantly and keeping my thoughts wondering. I plan to sail the sea one day, hope I see you guys there. Life, it’s a beautiful thing once you get to explore it.

    Filipino fishermen trade their catch for some different food product or items ,
    since they've been fishing for so many days at sea. There's a name on that boat "Princess Mary grace" i'm sure is the daughter of that fisherman, and would be very happy to see what you gave.
    Salamat.! .."but take care always !

    Things like this makes me more proud to be Filipino ❤️ I think being nice and the hospitality is totally in our blood. Mindanao got a bad reputation because of some terror group out there they occupy very very small part of mindanao and mindanao is very big Island. I know tv and media makes a huge boost on showing bad rep in mindanao even some Filipinos like me not from mindanao are afraid to go there, but last year I came to visit and that I fall in love mindanao has a lot to offer especially awesome people makes me wanna live there ❤️ God! Those fishermen are so kind. #pinoypride

    that was riveting. everybody's on edge out there in the high seas. fair winds and safe passage.
    those fishermen probably weren't hungry, they just wanted some form of interaction. i guess bartering is just an instrument of social niceties in a very isolated part of the world.

    I'm a sailor and my previous vessel had a route arround that area. We always interact with the local fisherman via radio we just say "buli-buli" an indication that your vessel wants to trade fish with the fishermen. It was a really awesome experience they were able to trade huge tunas for cans of beers and packs of cigarettes feom us. Love the vibe. Hope you'll have fair winds and following seas ahead. Take care

    Always such a relief when they are nice curious fisherman which is 99% of the time. We are very close to the Abu Sayeff events in what was it...2016? Lost a few friends in that one! Stay safe...and do be careful...it’s in their blood there...the few bad ones that exist...but keep loving your fellow seamen and staying positive but careful! Nice to see a positive spin! -
    Enjoy Raja Ampat...one of our MOST favorite places in the world!
    Found our Navionics very accurate but areas in southern Raja Ampat not detailed...is your subscription current and updated? Try the Sonar chart option...those should have OUR tracks on them ;) Enjoy!!! Can’t wait to see your adventures there...truly some of the best snorkeling you will ever find. Go to Triton Bay if you have time!!!

    Welcome to Asian waters. Its a fishing custom here of trading. Fisherman tend to trade with other Fisherman with their fish or food. Heard stories of Filipino Bisaya trading with the Indonesians or Vietnamese with food rations, cigarettes and fish caught.
