That is very true. Most only concentrate on the big cities or parts of them. Very good observation.

Yea is not like the Duma- Dramagette wich I'm already tired to watch .

What a beautiful place to grow up in!

Yes, I look like a very nice slow paste. Little country town something I would love.

And face surgery here is expensive. Lol 😅

And stray dogs are not rabies vaccinated - 😊

Handsome. Baka hansama Ng ugali.

Dried fish

I gotta go back it was just the one day/night this time

Domingo's on a weekend next time!

It really is a fun market to explore

Exactly! We learn everyday

It was fun! Will come back

@@ThatPhilippinesLife I'll suggest that you should come back at the month of April. Since it's our Panagat Festival by that time. You'll definitely enjoy!

​​​​​@@user-gf9yx6ve5k Good to know Estancia now has its own festival. Better late than never, while other towns in ILOILO already had theirs so many years ago. Estancia has so much potential compared to other towns in ILOILO, but sad to say , everything has always been a promise that haven't turned into realities . What's wrong with Estancia? Your government there needs to look at other towns that were back roads years ago, but now have overtaken Estancia. Estancia has to exert efforts double time and promote it as a tourist destination.its local government has to encourage and INVITE FORMALLY investors to put up resorts, retirement subdivisions especially targeted for expatriate American and European and Korean and Japanese retirees, and Balikbayan retirees; encourage handicraft and pasalubong delicacies shops investors, like at Caticlan in Aklan and Jordan in Guimaras. It's actually a town with similar potentials as Nasugbu and the nearby seaside towns of Batangas. Hurry up Estancia. A sluggish Estancia local government? I don't think so. Just go ahead and get ahead of the other towns beside you in ILOILO. You can make it., Estancia.

Yes true ❤

My pleasure , 😄

Thank you

Completely my pleasure, I appreciated everyone was so nice to me

God bless you always sir , keep it up!@@ThatPhilippinesLife

I generally do if it's a hotel I recommend other stay at. I don't like to be negative on business that I wouldn't go back but I just don't promote those that don't meet the expectations

This is just a go pro hero 10 black with a sony hand held from another camera nothing fancy here

Exactly what an ideal place

Check out a few videos ago I was at Gigantes

@LanceWhite. Appreciate your observation. I agree but hadn’t linked it to the numerous young people, that’s a good point. Watching this vlog a 2nd time & have another comment: I wouldn’t describe Michael so much as “easily impressed”, rather as “still with capacity for wonder & appreciation.” This capacity is in all children, but many of us lose it once grown up. It is a worthy trait, to remain childlike in wonder, but far from childish. Imo Our Lord endorsed it in Scripture …Matthew 18….(among more detailed interpretations).

They are such a friendly culture, live the Philippines

That's a great way to put it. I appreciate so many interesting things at face value

Thanks so much and I appreciate all the support, it's great to know people enjoy it

Estancia is my birthplace..Now. Im 77 yrs. old. and how I wish I can visit there..Now Im residing here in General Santos City, the TUNA City of the Phil.

That's so cool, small world and hello Minnesota (how's the weather??)

@@ThatPhilippinesLifesuch a small world! This made my mom very happy to see her hometown. It’s unusually warm here in Minnesota right now

Thank you

Wow, thank you!

Oh I like that!

I think I should check it out too

Looking forward to coming back

Score one for Dan Boy

Definitely, let's be honest proximity to a city is the key to the big things you won't find a high end hospital in a small town. But when I see a medical city or Medicis new clinic I shine a light on those. Appreciate your input

Excellent plan

@@ThatPhilippinesLife you see a 605 guy running around with a cowboy hat.. It's probably me 😆

Have fun

Maybe another time

Hello

Yea I'm considering all the sides of this, it is equal distance to Roxas City, Iloilo City , Bacolod, not too far from Cebu though. Trying to find the right mix of life is my goal and potentially starting a business.

The next video after this one :)

It's close to the pilsner, it's San Miguel's cheapest beer made for the provinces

@@ThatPhilippinesLife looking forward to getting stuck into it....one day. Meanwhile, enjoy there mate. Those island look fantastic and the water color is amazing.

Thank you

Oh, tomorrow will be festivities for the Chinese New year near the capital. I'll see you around maybe. Make sure you go to the beach around sunset and on too

I'm heading to Cebu/Luzon islands soon. I have done Subic but now with the massive American military presence again I'm interested to know what's changed

Right, they are so beautiful, the town has so much potential. So Many opportunities for starting a business and I could see that the future is bright here

Hmm wasn't I there in this video?

Definitely should check it out

I have been to Bacolod several times a few videos on this channel and several on the old

Thank you🥂love the town

I have my contact information on my channel and in the description of every video, feel free to write me

Giantess is the next video, Sicogon as mentioned is pretty pricey overnight stay so another time

He has a great future

I stayed there for two nights (the two videos before this one featured it)

I had it already planned in Carles it was rescheduled from 2 days prior when it was too stormy out

@@ThatPhilippinesLife They take pride of their scallops there. You might also find a mountain of discarded scallop shells which are collected and polished into "Capiz shells" used to make lanterns and traditional Filipino windows.

@@jomazerud I went to the capiz shell manufacturing location it was so interesting and definitely ate lots of scallops

@@ThatPhilippinesLife or you can stop over in sicugon island It’s a five star resort own by Ayala Is the famous island before discover Boracay

Fantastic, I hope you return again soon!

well be back soon love iloilo city

If you come to Iloilo and Im around Ill certainly try to help you out. if you message me i can ask some questions that will help me make suggestions to match

Go pro hero 10 black

@@ThatPhilippinesLife thanks

Haha wait, I seriously have no game I definitely don't hit on anyone (I should tho)

I can tell you don't have game. Plus youre hoping your ex changes her mind. You're easy to read. Lol

Many of those are on the list. I'm planning 3 straight weeks so maybe not all them but many

Oh that makes sense

Awesome 😎😎 that's what I expected 😁😁

No secret Roxas city has peaked my interest and Iloilo city has my heart so the surrounding areas of here is the other

Tom Hortons for the win! And everyone must say Eh

That's sad, I'm glad to show the Philippines to those who can't come

@@ThatPhilippinesLife I have kin ,presiding in Aklan province,lots of relatives, my aunt lives in Boracay and my cousin runs a pharmacy and Chinese restaurant there..Enjoy while you can cheers..
