    Mate, I don't think it's the best option to leave your place behind. The moment you reach Manila, you'll be thinking of your home and will keep thinking of coming back. People survive if they stick together and help each other. I know you guys can do this, but ultimately whatever decisions you make. I know you chose what's best for your Family. God bless Guys, and stay safe.

    i'm a filipino american and i backpacked siargao staying at hostels and i love that place. the vibe on that island is something special. i hope you guy stay there and help the island recover. i know its easy to just get up and move somewhere else. but i think you are going to miss a great opportunity to rebuild and connect with the locals in a deeper level as you make the island your home. i think it would make great content vlogging about the recovery about siargao. i'll tell you right now that siargao is getting very popular amongst Filipinos and internationally in 5 years it will be well known as much as boracay and el nido. if you stay and open a business there i bet it would prosper after you solve the typhoon and pandemic problems. just my opinion though.

      The lesson I learned from these type of typhoons is that we need to pay attention to what kind of storm it is, its level.
      Yolanda is very unforgettable for me and it has happened once again. I heard a joke from my fellow ML players, and that we have already our armors ready for it, but I think it's not the case. I learned from the victims I watched. Thank you so much for sharing the exact event that occurred during this typhoon

    The survivors of this typhoon are a true miracle. Praying for the adults, children and pets in the heat without necessities. Be careful riding around with the tires picking up debris and the lack of fuel. Hopefully there will be bulldozers there soon to help remove and clear out everything. Good to see the younger ones helping the older ones. After living below sea level and having to leave for weeks due to major hurricanes I can sympathize with the after effects and recovery for years after. At my age now and my parents we have had to leave a beautiful city and move to higher ground out of the high impact hurricane area. Always know home is what you make it and wherever you make it. I will keep everyone in my prayers daily and try to get the news out that help is needed now and in the future. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️

    Appreciated both of you for having these footage/ documentaries of Siargao after the Storm; despite the terrible experience. I am from Cebu City which also experienced Odette (Rai), and in Lapulapu City when the Storm hit us head- on too. It is worthy to note too, that neither Siargao nor Cebu City had experienced Typhoons strongest as Odette or Yolanda, not in my lifetime. I lived for almost 2 years in Siargao Island when I worked as a Nurse in Sta Monica Municipal Hospital back in '91 to '93, I was one of the Pioneer Nurses when the small hospital was opened albeit I came from Cebu City, I missed Siargao, and longing to find out out the situations too although we in Cebu also were hit, badly too. I experienced 2 typhoons when I was there in Siargao Circa early 90; but not really so destructive as this, this is 10- fold to the just normal typhoons that passed it often too, as it is at the belly of the Pacific Ocean on the right. When I was there, no Surfing yet and the feeling of the Island was like Philippines Circa 70 although it was 90 already. Yet I was glad hearing Siargao has progressed much recently; yet sad now that Typhoons now also becomes huge and catastrophic. I missed Siargao, yet sad I see her on this situation now. Nevertheless, yes I always believe on the resiliency of its people, and to rise above against all odds. Thanks for your Blog, my profound appreciation.

    You will survive….with your family…you will survive. It takes time…and courage and resilience and patience. Nature will make itself beautiful and strong once again…and you will evolve and recover along with nature and the world around you. You are man enough to be human and that’s a super power.

I assumed your family in Europe reached out to these vlogs. Most important is that you survived & Safe. Things will be quite slow in recovery but Filipinos are very resilient, learned lessons and will find means to make Siargao rise again. God Bless this adorable family & the rest of Families that were affected.

Take the life challenge today for the future because life now is becoming harder and harder you are still lucky your house is not much damage think that others don't have anything for living. You thank God you have your families far away who can give you more money to buy for your comfort needs. How about the people of Filipino here if they have no one give help except the government and same Filipinos. Please don't give up the difficulties in life sometimes God give us this kind of disaster to know that God was still on our side

That is a real issue because that’s already a fight for survival. Ingat (take care).

    You are just one of the few people who can show what is going on in the island. And I’m sure you’ll just going to be worried about the people you left behind. I don’t think I can go away with that conscience. But you also have your own family to worry about. I am sure it’s a big decision to make. I think it’s much better for you guys to leave and process everything. This is your first time seeing such natural disaster and I’m sure I would be in shock. But may God see you through all these difficult times.

      @@rdc1431... I read the entire comment and she implied by it that the Rainy Season is a catastrophic time of year. Every tropical storm does not result in a disaster, and only a very few affect heavily populated areas with much more than some local flooding and a strong wind. Sustained winds over 350 kph, sometimes reaching even 400 kph, are very rare. This was a Category 5 Typhoon 🌬️🌀💦 And, such a storm happens only once, maybe twice, during the lifetime of most filipinos. It's not what they experience every year... otherwise, they would probably build better shelters to live in, rather than simply patching up things time after time with plywood and other cheap materials.
