ABC are really exceptionally good presenters. They literally sound and look like ABC (no pun intended) TV show presenters. Always enthusiastic, succinct, clear, show a little personality etc. That's why their videos come across as so professional. It's not even the camera quality or anything, but primarily how well they present. Also, their kids are quintessential, witty 90s family sitcom American kids. I feel like I am watching Full House or something. All they need is a laugh track in the background and it feels like a professionally made family travel major network sitcom.

What drew me to yours and MomDuty's channels is how happy and positive your vlogs are. I know you encounter some set backs or things don't go as planned but you still manage to look at the bright side of things. I hope this carries on throughout your journey there in the Philippines

15:00 Thats the downside of shopping directly on High Street :/ but a bit outside the prices get slowly better. And by outside I mean, still in walking distance. When you are on Hight Street just keep walking towards east, until you reach some kind of traffic circle and then it says "Market!Market!". They have better/fairer prices, despite being part of BGC district. Maybe there are other places too, but thats what I know from last time I lived there. As you already know SM Aura - it is north of SM Aura. And if you already know what you want, Lazada and Shopee are worth a try, they are like "Amazon" of the Philippines. Also, those Grab Drivers can pick up things and bring them really fast, if you dont want to go to a place yourself and you need the things faster than online shopping.

Try out Breeze Massage on 9th and 32nd. Also try Fitness First at SM Aura. I have been working out there for 1.5 years with coach Eric. Kerry Sport is nice… but once u LIVE here u wont want to hang out in a hotel with tourists. You will want to hang out with locals.

Thanks for the tips! Fitness First sounds like a great alternative for the reasoning you provided tho if we end up at Sapphire, I think the distance will be a deterrent to the daily workout?

Not a bad place to stay actually I was there a month a go with my fam for school break. There is a nice burger joint just around the corner from there, forgot the name but their burgers were some of the best i tasted since moving here. Definitely going back there on the weekends.

I love the shang (except for the prices) oh well at least you are maximizing the facilities. Btw I lived in the adjoining building, Grand Hamptons, which has the same developer, for a few years, so you picked a great area (it's called Crescent park). Lots of shops nearby. My tip is observe the aircon, in our case we changed the aircons to more energy efficient ones at our expense but the savings were well worth it. Also lots of great options in Bonifacio stopover which is righ across saphire.

Hi Lockwood Fam! We were at Shangrila-at-the-Fort for 4 days from NYE-at-the-5th countdown celebrations. I said Hi to Cole when I saw him at the Bread section on the 2nd day of buffet breakfast back at the High Street Cafe. New Year's day breakfast was at the Grand Ballroom (hotel was 100% capacity). Cole told me to say Hi to the fam, but I didn't want to bother you guys while you were enjoying your breakfast. I saw you again at breakfast the next day. It was really nice to see you guys in person albeit from afar. High Street Cafe Breakfast is one of the best! I'll see you around here in BGC 🤩Come to Uptown Bonifacio! Good luck on your condo hunt.
