FIRST IMPRESSIONS of the PHILIPPINES | We were SHOCKED and SCAMMED! 🇵🇭
Ойын-сауық
Hi Everyone 👋
We are SO EXCITED to be here in the Philippines! We plan to spend at least two months here (depending if we can extend our visa).
Our first destination is Manila and in today’s video we share with you our first impressions. We travel to three different places within Manila, each place giving us a different experience - including getting scammed (which is our first time since starting our travels!). That’s not to take away from the amazing day we had and the kind Filipino people we met. We hope you enjoy the video as much as we enjoyed exploring this amazing city!!
Don’t forget to subscribe for future travel videos and to follow along on our journey around the Philippines! For other updates follow our Instagram at @geoandbert
Thanks Everyone 🤗💗🫰🏼

kumusta is just like the Spanish for how are you because we were colonized by Spain for over 300 yrs. if you've already been to Spain, you'll notice there are a lot of similar words that we share. English - how are you? Filipino - kumusta? Spanish - como estas? we have our own counting in Filipino or Tagalog but we also use the Spanish counting like uno, dos, tres, quatro, cinco, and so on...so using that is also okay.

That first neighborhood isn't really BGC. It's on the outskirts. But I'm glad you got to see Metro Manila's two main "downtowns" Makati & BGC. They're both nice but have different feels.

Just felt so bad about that Pedicab guy that kinda tricked you about the ride cost. Things happened for a purpose, I can see the overwhelming support of Filipinos around the world 🌎 🇵🇭.

Hey Jing! Even though its the reality for them, in an ideal country - travelers and tourists shouldn't need to know the ins and outs of our transportation system. Its for our (useless) Government to ensure that its intuitive and easy to use enough for children, the elderly, people with disabilities, and tourists/travelers to use without getting confused, lost, or stressed. Look at Tokyo, Osaka, Seoul, KL, Bangkok etc. We still have a long way to go in that regard. Its only the people here whose kindness and helpfulness will redeem the horrible ineptitude of our government. I wish one day we can be more like Thailand or Indonesia, which are more tourist friendly.

So we really appreciate the time and effort you have taken to do this! We have learnt in case there is a next time, but it hasn't changed how we feel about the Philippines we are loving it and everyone else has been so so friendly and helpful.

Welcome to our country Guys. Just stay safe always wherever you are cause scammers are everywhere not just Philippines. Be smart. Just some tip. Dont deal with travel fixers guys ask the local about the cheaper transportation methods. Enjoy your travel 😉🙂🙂

It's ok to say no to people even if they're persistent bro. Sorry for the scammer experience, hopefully it doesn't happen again. Always ask around if you're not sure. Enjoy your stay. My recommendations are if you head up north for mountain region or south for the beautiful beaches.

I avoid any persons that are looking for tourists for business. A lot are looking to scam you. But putting it all in perspective, it's only a few dollars, the cost of learning.

This should get you started on your local foods adventure: Locals eat everything with rice 1) Lechon (not the paksiw you had in this vlog which is made from leftover lechon). 2) Sinigang 3) Sisig 4) Bulalo 5) Mang Inasal chicken 6) Adobo, chicken and pork 7) Any street food barbeque (when you see smoke from a sidewalk vendor cooking meat, try it with all the different sauces they provide provide) 8) Banana cue and Turon (caramelized deep fried banana, turon is wrapped and crispy while the cue is whole and unwrapped. 9) Try halo-halo, (translated as mix-mix) for dessert. For a one stop local dishes, try MANAM restaurant. However, some local mom and pop restaurants called carinderia or turo-turo could offer more authentic cooking. Cheers and welcome to the Philippines.

You should go to Department of Tourism to complaint for this kind of scammers. By showing the video to them so that they will make regulations or punishment for this kind of person. 🇵🇭

Try to visit Boracay, palawan (puerto princesa, El nido, Coron), Cebu ( Canyoneering, whale shark diving @ Oslob), Bohol ( panglao, river cruise, zipline, tarsier, chocolate hills) Siargao and many more. Advice: Always ask for the price on different vendors or local transportation before you buy or ride. Or ask the locals around you for the price to avoid getting scammed. Most filipinos speak english. Enjoy the Philippines and welcome!❤
