AMERICAN MAN LIVING IN PHILIPPINES MOUNTAIN TOWN (BecomingFilipino Mindanao)

I MET AN AMERICAN MAN LIVING IN A PHILIPPINES MOUNTAIN TOWN...
After a really tough scooter adventure, I found myself staying over in the Municipality of Senator Ninoy Aquino, Sultan Kudarat. The area is also called "SNA" for short. Waking up early, I was invited for coffee with an American and wife, who bumped into me the other evening. Brad is originally from Wisconsin and has been living in Mindanao for years. It was really awesome chatting with him, and the environment he lives in here in Sultan Kudarat Province really is beautiful! Just chatting to him made me want to come back and explore for many days!
From Bad's house, I head back down the mountains and make my way to Tacurong City. It was time to relax a little after all the intense motor rides!
An American man living in a Philippines mountain town... and a Canadian appreciating all the vibes and scenery!

    You make it sound like living in the Philippines is the worst situation there can ever be and that he has to make good out of this situation. Maybe he needs to move back to the best place on earth… ‘Murica!

    I am in Manila right now. I am 32 years old. I remember when I was 8 -11 years old. My grandpa used to bring us along these mountains on a Pick up truck. The area is so beautiful. My grandpa is a Former Governor of Sultan Kudarat Way back 90's. I miss the good old days. 🥲 Thank you Kulas for showing me this again. More support ❤️

I find it educational because the places that you are visiting are super nice. I love to watch the member of your household as well, Mama Rose, Bret and Mr. Datu. You are the most positive person and i wish you the best in life. Watching your vlog everyday feels like you have been my friend for a long time. I have an american son residing in Bacolod. His name is Brandon Robinson. Bret reminds me so much of Brandon because of their resemblance. Be safe always and take care. Best regards.
