We went to Daku Island near Siargao to support the local farming project and the more we learn about it, the more we like it! So much, that we could imagine THIS being our life one day! Would it suit us? 🥰Big thank you to the locals sharing their way of life with us 🙏🏼🇵🇭

Wow the priviledge you both have in doing mission work so to speak your project in negrensi now this one I thought as I watch all your videos that you guys are doing God's will extending help where its needed and just adopting to the culture and lifestyle that is so foreign to you may the good Lord sustain nd guide both of you as you continue to do what is right good deeds comes back at an unexpected time be blessed God is with you

Its so so refreshing to see those footage while we are on this pandemic... I can say that the Philippines remain lively and happy..

Nah Mike I can relate to lost footage and I'm not a content creator. I'm in graphic design and actually thinking of entering the youtube game as a story time animator. Recently my work HDD died on me. While most of my work is backed up, I lost 3 days of work. That made me cry after I screamed; NOOoooo!!!! Love the Vlog. You guys are a great cute couple. Stay safe, and thanks for this little taste of home.

Kind of a very relaxing and refreshing place to stay.

Everytime I watched your videos I do not skip ads, because it is my simplest way to give thanks for helping the community likewise to my co-filipinos. both of you are the same with "Sir Basel a famous blogger also who had done a lot of help to PH. Thank you for chosing PH to stay and live while on quarantine. In my opinion through your videos you help also showcasing and promoting the beauty and the tourism of Philippines. God Bless the both of you . Together we can end this pandemic. We Heal As One.

You are definitely adjusting to the province life! So nice Mike & Nelly! Love ur adventures and positivity even though it's challenging times. At least you have each other, that's what's so important. Love you!

Reminds me so much of my childhood days at my grandparents' farm in Guimaras back in the pre-social media, pre-internet days in the late 60s onward.....no running water, no electricity, dirt roads, outhouse as toilets, cold showers in the well underneath coconut trees, laundry in a nearby river.....

Proud of the bayanihan spirit still being practice, thats upo the vegie love that veg.

Sucha refreshing vlog. This is where and what we should all be doing during and after the pandemic: back to basics and an effort for sustainability. We don’t really need much and working together does address all our needs. Thanks for featuring this, more like these please! 🙏🏼

Living a day or two of the rural life will definitely make a different impact than just seeing it. You will be more appreciative of it if you experience their way of life firsthand. I'm so happy for you knowing that you have this kind of a worthwhile experience. The scenic views make the place a paradise but the people you interact to will make it a home.

Salute to Mike and Nelly for a wonderful visit to Daku island with a promising social improvement farming project for the locals. Truly guys, you indeed are making quite a difference in your lives and Filipino simple folks. Farm tourism is now the in thing after this Covid 2019 Pandemic coz it's practicable, sustainable and income producin; and looks like this is promising to alleviate farming communities in the Philippines. My salute beautiful bloggers for making this happen and so with others socially participating especially the organizers, this is such a one meaningful moment of experience in one pretty islands of the Philippines. Thanks for being involved!

It’s for Mike and Nelly to go inside the island and see the local, especially their new farming program.

It shows how resilient and resourceful Filipinos are.

Cheers to Martin and Nellie for helping to promote farming , initiative of the locals.. This is very informative that other than the beaches here , there are worthwhile projects that you can also participate to help the community and the Philippines . 🙌🙌🙌🙌💕👍

Stay positive guys

Philippines is very lucky to have been blessed with a Fertile Soil that is good for growing trees crops and vegetables especially the farm land is so rich and fertile that is why any crops and trees the farmers planted in their farm it will grow well and healthy . I hope more people will turn to farming instead of other types of jobs because the country and its people needs more healthy rice , fruits and vegetables at least no need for imported rice , fruits and vegetables. I salute to these people planting different kinds of vegetables keep it up everyone

Mark and Nelly. It is very entertaining to watch you guys adopting the culture of urban lifestyles. Appreciated it too much. Enjoy Philippines 🇵🇭

These people are so lucky to have meet you. And ohhhh gosh that place Siargao is a real paradise...such a beautiful place..life is simple, chill, and everything is back to basics... You are truly blessed to be quarantined on that lovely island..take care Mike and Nelly..love you guys!! 💜💜💜

The drone footage is wow...just wow 😀 and thank you for your love gifts to pinoy families in need 😊

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING THE LOCALS. MUCH APPRECIATED, MAKING IT HAPPEN. STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY. GOD BLESS.

Thanks for helping, sharing and meeting those Filipinos! Stay healthy and safe

i can relate to that feeling of loosing footages... It was our teambuilding in Gigantes Island in IloIlo where I accidentally drowned my phone where videos are stored... I lost the videos and got no phone for the entire trip...

Drone shots - Just WOW!!! Siargao is such a BEAUTY! The color of water is UNREAL!!! 😍😍😍🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

Hey Mike, got an assignment for you. How about designing a small windmill to power the hand pump. With maybe a reservoir made with a 50 gallon drum. Design should be replicated easy for other remote communities, so cost need to be minimal. Once you resume traveling, you can always build one for other areas.

when you may have the chance to go back there to Daku Island, you might be surprised how they may have progressed with lotsa crops, more trees, more farmers joining in, and how they're sustaining on their own...they won't just be selling their produce within their barangay or nearby towns/barangays in Siargao but will be reaching out to neighboring provinces/ cities and someday all the way up here to mainland Luzon and Manila.our farmers are very hard-working

Suggestion: maybe try to have a collab with Andi Eigenmann. She was an actress but left showbiz and now enjoying the island life there is Siargao. She's now happy living together to the one of the best Surf coaches there 😍😁 she's now vlogger too. Enjoy your stay in Siargao and stay safe!

Wow! I am very impressed with the locals’ command of English! They all seem to speak it so well! That’s awesome.

Mike and Nelly you guys are genuine people. Spreading good life and great experiences.

I have been watching your making it happen videos since the world went into lockdown. I moved back to the state’s from Davao a year ago and left behind a wife and my two year old son. My plan was to return this may for the big three birthday of my son but that is impossible at the moment. Watching your videos how ever and being reminded of the beauty of the Philippines had kept my hopes high. The reason I’m writing this is to let you know your videos do a lot more good Than you may realize. Thank you Mike and Nelly for your vlog and I’m totally taking a vacation in Siargao after this is over! In like five years:)

Amazing and beautiful adventure great job guys. Cool and good ambiance, fresh air.

Oh Mikoy and Nelya..so happy for the both of you for getting the chance to be out in the open again!😊

My popcorn is ready 🤗🤗🤗

im glad to see Nelly’s genuine happy smile!

This video is one of your most appreciative trip- you made those people in that simple village happy- you described yourselves as a very flexible, approachable, simple yet, so adorable couple to get along with. The nature around is so... cool. Subscribers will love you more. Congrats. Mike & Nelly.🍅🍍🥗

Love that kind of project! Thank you Mike and Nelly for the help you give to the people of Daku island in Siargao.

Hi! Mike & Nelly you’re so lucky guys 😊Enjoying the beautiful scenery in Philippines despite of lockdown of Covid-19. You both such a kindhearted.We are here working in France but can’t enjoy as the same in Siargao just because of we are careful to go out .Well enjoy staying in Siargao . Have fun in the beach🏝 .I’m enjoying watching your vlog. Take care guys 😊

This long lockdown, you get used to with the province rural life. You probably won't like living and spend less time in the polluted and the overcrowded city anymore. There is the natural joy slow life living in the beautiful province and happy smiling people which makes your day fulfilled. I think this lockdown remind us to change for the better, perhaps new home base start a new chapter

YES FOOD PRODUCTION IS KEY TO NATURAL SURVIVAL
