Michael's voice is cracking the whole time. I understand the pain you're going thru talking about your past and I feel you, mate. Just remember that the experiences you've gone thru is what makes you who you are today.

You can sense Michael’s pain. He’s already aware of what sacrifice is like.
You are not obligated under any condition to reveal anything about your personal lives because there are fanatics out there pestering you. Do not let them influence or pressure you on how to live your lives.

Keep your info secure don’t say anything to people online.
The cerebral straight man and his funny and charming wife. You two are an amazing couple. Your authenticity and sharing are so appreciated.
I love how your Mom created the name Davina... And "Davina Bianca" is so beautiful, as you are. Thanks for sharing! ❤️
Very brave of you, two, to share with us what you did. Really appreciate it. Because that tells me you have really come to identify with us, that you are Filipinos. And i love you for that!
Good stuff. You two are incredible. Thanks for opening up your lives to us and your hard work. Amping:)
The most intellectually accomplished, are always the ones that go through the most in life. Now we know why Michael is as humble, kind and patient as he is. ✊ I can also tell you’re a very protective person, by the way you care after Bianca. You found her, and now you guys make each other whole. I love how Bianca, brings out Michaels inner child. You guys are a perfect match, like ying and yang.
Interesting. Mike, You were born to be an adventurer. You're the perfect man for this job. I'm glad that somehow out in the sticks you found a way back to civilization to meet Divina. Your childhood resembles my parents from upper Maine. And they are very nice people as well. Divina, I'm considering doing what you did as well. I like my privacy and I'm not a big fan of chismus. Not that I personally experienced it since I haven't yet been to the Philippines. I'm a bit concerned about the new immigration changes that may be signed into law in the near future. That might delay my move to the Philippines depending on which Visas I might qualify for. To be frank I would rather stay as a tourist for a few years to see if China makes a move. Anyway it's great to know you two better and I wish you a very nice weekend.
Here in the Philippines, if you have 2 names like your Davina Bianca, you can opt to have a nickname using either your 1st or 2nd name. You chose Bianca and that's ok. But for legal documents you have to use your complete name

Thank you guys for sharing a bit about yourselves. We truly appreciate you doing that. After all the travels, food and adventures you have shown us, this is a breath of fresh air. This video makes you more human and relatable to us. Hello Davina Bianca! Nice to finally meet you!!! 🤗😉🍻
Davina, Bianca. All that matters is you as a person, you and Michael are two lovely people
That was fun and interesting. I too would have reservations of laying everything out there so don't feel like you need to but in doing so, we really get to know more about you. Michael's background is really amazing and he surely brings an uncommon perspective and by that I mean a really good perspective. He is very personable and genuine. You MS Bianca are his gold mine and super interesting and cute. Your story also very interesting and its clear your momma loves you big time and you love her too. My questions for both of you if you care to answer are: Are you 'married' and do you have any plans for expansion (have kids) or will you continue to travel and explore a bit longer? Sometimes we never know those answers and things happen but kids can change your life for sure. Either way, love to you both from the Lone Star State.

We are married we recently (Feb) had our 2 year anniversary. We were married in Canada . We do expect to travel for a very long time. We do so as we can afford it, the food thing is we have our whole lives and it's not a rush :)
Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed watching this video a lot, especially because of the casual (i.e. more real, IMO) style of speaking that you both used, compared to many of your other videos. Continued success on your channel.
Just don't give up, don't break up... Stay together... bond stronger.... to last forever your relationship to each other... God bless 🙏 you both... We love you guys ❤❤🙏 💯
Ok. What's the REAL story? (Yawn). 24 mins lost
Well this video makes Michaels last video make a whole lot more sense. I hope one day both of you are able to recognize your patterns of behavior, and how history repeats itself. That sounds harsh, but it’s not intended to be that way. I sincerely hope yall are able to find your way back to each other, and not require “something different” in your life.

You didn't have to share with your audience but we thank your for sharing. I'm impressed by your success from a difficult upbringing. You both have alot to be proud of. I am glad you are enjoying this adventure together 😊
Divina is a Devine name, hopefully you get my grief. A typical name of Pilipino. Peace.
Hi Dav, nice to hear about you. Thanks for sharing. 😊
I dig your content and for the most part I'm inspired by your experiences in the Philippines. I admit I cannot relate to this video very well. Not your fault of course everyone's experience is unique to them. I live in the Bronx NYC. from where I stand y'all had it great. hunting, karate, moving to remote locations, beaver hunting, open land. etc. and being "private" about such a fulfilled life seems weird. If anyone from where I lived had those experiences you shared they would have never left Canada. My brother lives in Cebu city and he's doing greater than we ever have. I'm planning a trip to The Philippines for a better life where in a sense I'm heading to the things that you left, but economically more doable than my retired life in the Hood, relatively speaking of course. but realistically y'all had it good. way better than you imagine as far aside can see.either way. thanks for sharing.
I thought this whole thing of divulging personal information was cute. You truly have a choice of how you want to be called. As long as its not sort of nasty. I have been watching you guys for a while now. Your style of vlogging is quite relaxing. Keep it up. It makes a lot of people happy for sure!
Great Video and don't take this the wrong way but that was one of the greatest rambles I have ever witnessed!
Hi guys! Thanks for the videos! You really should bring your mom over if she's able to travel. Take care!

What I hear Bianca say is "Divina", but most commentors say "Davina". Its typical in Filipino culture to merge names to form a new one like, Luzviminda. I think of "Bianca" as a screen name for security, and you're right that its cute. Props to divulging parts of your private life, but you didn't have to. But your background helps viewers understand. There are many non-westerners who think that westerners are well off and rich. Wishing you a great life ahead. Take care guys.

It's Davina, a combination from her father's name "David" and the last 3 letters of her mother's name.
Thank you for being open and honest guys..may god blesses you in your travels.
This is an amazing video of you both! I have been following you and still reside in the GTA. My wife is Filipina and has family and her property back home in Mindanao. Look forward to finally settling down there pretty soon. Keep up the good work guys!! Love you!!
That's why I don't take social media couples seriously. Seen to many end up like this and so many folks invest emotionally.
That's awesome! Thanks for sharing a bit about your background. Michael's story is a bit surprising. Being a fellow Canadian, living in Saskatchewan, especially in the more rural areas can be desolate. No matter, it's good to see how he has embraced the Philippine way of life. I can relate to Bianca as well since I am a reserved and private person. If I ever visit Iloilo, would love to meet you guys
Ok Davina! We are nobody to judge you! I'm pretty sure that we have a lot of baggage in my back as well. I just I want you guys to be good and healthy and safe, and enjoy life! Ok, Bianca! No worried !
Totally understand your privacy thing DavinaBianca. My wife and I have similar feelings. Thank you both for all the information about your lives. Very interesting. Take care and best of luck with your KZread channel!
Thank you for being humble telling your past the important is you both are nice turned out to be good person mike
Stop feeling pressured and sorry about not revealing your real name. Many vloggers and artists adopt screen names, and we completely understand and respect that. For your information, it's quite common for celebrities in the Philippines to use catchy screen names for better name recognition, and it can actually work to your advantage. Using a nickname for your vlog is entirely up to you, as it's your channel and your prerogative. There's nothing wrong with it, and it allows you to maintain the level of privacy and identity you're comfortable with.
One more thing, lie is a strong word, in recent weeks there's been a crisis of confidence regarding a certain KZreadr in the Philippines who shall remain unnamed. My impression of both of you, is that you are kind and honorable people and do not deserve to in any way be put in that same category.

Davina, i like that. My real name is Robby, first sounds of my lolas's names, which is Rosita and Belen.
I have followed you guys since pre-Philippines, and I completely understand why you didn’t want to use your first name, Bianca. You wanted to maintain a sense of privacy. A mask, if you will 😜. I think both of your names are beautiful!
I have a Filipina mum and my name (Belinda) is taken from the first 2 letters of dad's name and last 5 letters of mum's name. It might be a popular "Filipino" thing to do as Bianca had a similar story behind her first name.
Now that we know more about you two, we love you even more!❤🎉

Michael I know you lived on a farm but not as close to the edge of the world as you really lived. I don't blame you for being scared. You've honestly have molded your life into something really special. You've lived the American Dream even though you're not fron the USA. No matter what secrets you and Bianca can spill will never change the fact you both are 2 of my friends & most favorite people on earth, as you both were there during a time in my life when I was going through a lifestyle change. Hope we have story time again. Love you guys 🥰💯
I like Bianca better, nothing wrong with Divina, but Bianca stuck in my mind better. And Mike, my fellow canuck, i feel for your revealing your pasts and your experiences before. Look what's in front of you now, you have Bianca and the whole Filipino people behind you two. Keep up the good work you two. From the Toronto the Good(now bad) to Mindanao (present). 😊

We have that toilet separated from the house in my grandpa's place growing up, yes it was scary at night, you hear the creaking sound of bamboos and night animals while in the middle of your thing so you kinda rush things and run back as fast as you can to the house while holding tight a shaky flashlight haha...🤣
Thanx to your mom coz she raised you well and let you experince Filipino ways and Filipino foods. Were proud of you.
How nice that you have shared anything! I don't go by my first name and when I go marry sister argued with the minister about my name!
Awesome informative video. Thanks for sharing. ❤😊
Thanks for sharing. Bianca looks like she is about 28. What is your age difference? My Filipino wife is 14 years younger than me but not a big deal for her. However, living in the US, it would have been difficult for me to find a woman that much younger to marry.
Thanks for being upfront. You are missing where you meet, how long together, how long in the Philippines, future plans, etc.....
Thanks for the quality work you both do, keep up the good work.
Nice to hear that Ate and kuya. Stay safe. God Bless.
Hey fam! Love your channel! Congrats on all your success and beautiful life in Pinas. Cheers!
I wouldn’t say lie…you also share your lives on the internet so you are careful as you can be Everyone has a different but sometimes similar journey
Wow Bianca. You can sure talk alot for an intravert; and we love it. By the way, my name is David but was going to be davina if I was a girl. Wow eh! Is that not interesting. Take care guys from the sunny Okanagan.
Am playing catsup on your older videos which helps tell your story. I really appreciate your transparency.
Bianca..Divina..Whatever! It is your Warmth, SunShine disposition and Lovely countenance that matters!! You make YT Philippines a Nice place to Chillout!!❤❤❤❤ Remain as Jolly as you are!

Great share guys. Who knew u were a pool Dippin, milk skimming beaver bashing hunter - wow man, that's outstanding in my eyes. And Davina ♡ I heard those trumpets and angels choruses for several minutes after. I love it and think this will be your milestone name - it's awesome and so so you my darling 😘 We all have a past and its already done - I love how you guys use each new day to build the experiences which will help you create a great future together. TPL inspires ♡♡♡
Bianca is so 'lucky' to have a Michael that grew up in that kind of childhood. I was born in a remote countryside where there was no electricity. That was the best chapter of my life.
I like Davina, mainly due to the history of the name, but we know you now as Bianca so I believe you should continue with that name. My mother went by her middle name as well, Willarose, mainly because her first name was the same as her mothers, Leah. There is no context as to where the name Willarose came from it just exists. As children and teen years I would spend time with my grandparents on the farm during spring break and summer break plus we would visit every month. They did not have running water and had the outhouse and granny cooked on a wood burning stove. So I have lived through that as well but not full time like Michael did. So your background stories are interesting however to see your adventures in the Philippines is Exciting and has been Awesome!! I can not wait to get back over there for my next visit - Maybe I will see you then !!!
Michael “respect” that’s what I give you! Bianca "wise" is what I give you! I watch you guys everyday! I was in the Navy many years ago and spent time in Manila and Subic Bay! I am thinking of visiting the Philippines next December for the holidays. It's a long way from Vermont where I live, so I would stay for 3 weeks to a month! I miss the food and the people! I would love to live there, but it is such a long way from home! I have tw/o boys that I love dearly and want to be part of their life's, so long visits to the Philippines is what will work for me right now. Your videos are so helpful and like I said, I have not been there for many years! Keep doing what you do! You guys are AWESOME!
Just live the life you want don’t worry about what other people think people will hate regardless all the best to both your channels 😎
Hi guys! You are always Michael and Bianca to me.
u guys are wonderful people and we love u ...dont change anything u about u :) best wishes to u guys

I swear we made a video on this....now we are not sure if we did or if it was on a live!
Davina Bianca..it is unique. My cousin's name is Divina Jennifer and we call her Dijen which is also unique.
How were both of your school days before where you grew up,was it nice despite the things that were going on like the weather and everything?
Its totally understandable. Just think of it as your nickname.❤
referring to your town in Saskatchewan as it is so far that the roads don't go up farther (north) is freaking hilarious 😂😂😂 and Bianca might have been used to eating rice 3x a day but she has never tasted Guimaras mangoes so you guys' reactions are still da bomb!
Davina is a dope name. That happens to be one of my favorite characters on a show of supernatural characters called "The Originals". Davina was the most badass witch on the show. No one messed with her 😊.
I'm a teacher, but I'm an introvert...I understand.
We've been to Toronto, Ca. in 2004. Our hotel was just behind the old city hall. That big grey stone building. We went up the CN tower and had dinner at that revolving restaurant. Toronto is a nice city.
That is just a normal thing that filipinos do. As you know we don't consider that as a middle name here in the Philippines but your first name as well. So what everyone do is just choose the first name they like to use. That is just a normal thing here.
Your daughter is beautiful. Lucky you as a father. Keep it up and God Bless.
Both of you are very enjoyable to watch and listen to! 😊❤️
"and i would steal people's milk, so i was always very adventurous...that kinda thing" OG Michael
You really deserve what you achieved in life now.
Davina...I like it. It fits you well, but Bianca is also a name for a beautiful woman. And thinking about Michael's early life makes me think if he continued that life style, he would be Shawn James of "My Self Reliance" you tube channel. Did you ever watch him build a log cabin in the lakes district of Ontario? It's fascinating to see all the work he does in old fashioned ways and how he lives off the land, growing his own food and hunting and fishing. Maybe you two should try your hands at that for the next chapter of your life together..
I salute and admire your bravery to go out there and reveal such a very private life. It actually makes me feel as a viewer that I am actually watching a reality show with genuine sincerity.
*_Considering how Bianca looks, I think 'Divine' would totally work! Yes, I'll call her Divine from now on._* 😎😎😎😎👍👍
Look where you have come from, look where you are now. Looks like it has been a pretty good journey.
SO.. How old are you guys and how did you meet ??

You shouldn't really be too open about your private lives online. You never know who will misuse/ ABUSE the info against you. It's good to be a little mysterious sometimes.
I’ve followed you both since forever. Bianca ,you have come out of your shell and your confidence shows. Our childhood shapes us into the people we become. Love both names. I know quite a few people that change their names f,or some reason or others.
Mike is the more open and real who never hesitate to tell about his childhood because I can relate with him the same almost the same story growing up in the Philippines and it's no big deal as there's nothing to be ashamed of if one look at it as consequential thing..
Thank you for sharing as much as you both have Michael and Bianca/Davina! There was no need but thanks again. My sister’s name is a combination of my dad and mom’s name as well, lol. ❤😊😂

@Chard neo. I’ve noticed that Filipinos esp of older generations always use nicknames. No one calls them by their formal given birth first name. It was interesting to me that the nicknames aren’t usually shortened versions of their birth names, which is what i observed more among my American peers growing up in USA. Like Cindy for Cynthia. For the Filipinos, the nickname is often totally different it seems to me. I also noticed nicknames are really popular in American South, as compared to other regions of USA. Not an official stat, just something noted in my experience living in different regions.
Thanks for sharing guys. Your both awesome and beautiful. Love the fun you get up to in the ph. Ask if you want to know more. It was my home for 5 years. How it has changed. Yet still the same. Buhay na sa Philippines. Stay awesome lads. Irish ☘️ guy. I’ll be there in July. Miss na miss na ako.
My husband use his middle name as his name everyday.I am constantly teaching my daughter to eat filipino foods so she can suvive wherever she goes.Adobo n sinigang is her faves.
You can just say that Bianca is your screen name. It is pretty common for celebrities to have a screen name. So just keep using Bianca as your screen name if you are not comfortable using Davina. Besides, Bianca is also your name so it's not lying to say that your name is Bianca. As for Michael, you can indeed survive anywhere. Surprisingly (or maybe not), those who grew up in hardships have a better outlook in life when they grow older. They are emotionally stronger and can adjust to any situations in life that they encounter. The Filipinos are also resilient because, just like Michael, most are used to hardships. But I wonder if Michael feels awkward calling Davina as Bianca. I'm sure he is used to calling Bianca as Davina off camera.
