EMOTIONAL FILIPINO Birthday Surprise For BRITISH FAMILY 🇵🇭 Bisaya Mañanita
Рет қаралды 212,015
3 жыл бұрынToday we were given an emotional Filipino Birthday surprise for our daughter Story Ember. As a British family living in the Philippines we are slowly learning what makes this country and it's people so very special.
We experienced a Mañanita or an early morning sunrise serenade by the local people from our town on Siargao island. This old tradition is very special to the Cebuano, Bisaya and Siargao people and isn't practiced as much as it used to be. So the locals were very excited to get the chance to do this beautiful performance for us.
We were so moved by the love and care that was put into the lyrics of the morning serenade. It is like nothing we've ever seen in our lives. Thank you so much to Ate Jane and her family for organizing this for our special 4 year old girl. She loved it!
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 over 3 months and fell in love with island life, now we want to make that life more permanent.

November to February is the best time to visit because of the cooler climate and the Pinoy Christmas. April to June is when most festivals and fiestas, like the famous Ati-Atihan, Sinulog, are celebrated, but it's also the height of the dry season when temperatures can reach 36-37°C. But the beaches are never far and the water is warm all year round. Be safe. 🌺

It’s in our culture treating people as a family member even though we didn’t know eachother as long as you respect and kind to one another. And we loved to offer of what we have/can. As long as you appreciate it and like what we offer/give to someone, specially people like you who came from the very far country. That don’t have relative or any member of your family behind you. We’re so humbled to share or express our feeling to welcome you with an openarms. And to feel you at home 🏡. in very simple way of life. I know you surprised to those people came with the landlord even if you didn’t know them. But in our culture it doesn’t matter if you know me or that person as long as they’re kind to you all. And as being a Filipino we love to see new people and loved to be part of the occasion. Specially bithday gathering and Fiestas. So I hope if you see them on the road or in the beach 🏖 or market or in any public places don’t hesitate to greet them and they’ll loved it 👍👍👍👍👍👍😘😘😘😘😘😘😍😍😘😍

What a very Beautiful Memory on "Story's 4th Birthday". Worth preserving, a treasure to remember when she gets older, how she is being loved, not only by her adorable mum & dad but also by the people around her. "Mananita" is a rare traditional practice of showing how special you are. Story is so Adorable & Lovable that almost or all of the people she met in Siargao and those who saw her on your vlog learn to like her. What she is now, is the product of how you brought her up, Sacha & Jay, aside from being really born beautiful. Congratulations, Sacha & Jay. More blessings & God Bless. 🎄🏜

Ahhh! I miss having Mañanita. I used to be one of the groups that goes out early in the morning and sing for family & friends. We still do it in out village in Davao. My mum is having one this Nov 20 as it’s her birthday. It’s a lovely tradition. The early morning one they call it Mañanita, and when it’s done in the evening it’s called Harana. I’m so happy you are happy Story! 🥰🥰♥️♥️
