(singing happy birthday)
(clapping and cheering)
- Thank you guys. Thank you. Thank you very much.
Thank you. Thank you.
They're wishing me a happy birthday. It's my birthday today.
(upbeat music)
Hey everybody how's it going?
28th of April, 2018, it is 9:30 in the morning.
I am at the port of Siquijor in the Philippines,
I've thrown a map up on your screen so you can see it.
Behind me is what you'll be greeted
with when you arrive at Siquijor.
You probably can't really see it now because the
sun is covered with the clouds,
but if I show you just quickly
(wind blowing)
the colour of the water is just absolutely amazing.
And I've been here for two days.
I've had the best experience.
I'm gonna wrap this up for you real quick.
That if you are coming to the Philippines,
looking for a place to come to,
definitely come to Siquijor. Again, the spelling
and the map and all that will show up
so you know what I'm talking about.
I've been here for two days. I've had the best time,
waterfalls, meeting new people.
I've developed an incredible connection with my driver.
Almost emotionally, just a moment ago and I might
just even cut to that right now. Hello.
Okay guys, this has been my, this guy here June,
has been my driver for the last two days here in
Siquijor, Philippines.
An absolutely guy. He's super friendly and just the
biggest heart and we've had such an adventure.
You've seen the videos. - Yeah
- We've had a good time haven't we man?
- Yeah we have a good time.
- A very good time.
- Yeah - Yeah?
- We have lots of fun.
- Yeah
- Lot of adventures.
- I love adventure guys and if you ever come to
Siquijor and you see this man,
definitely say hi to him and he'll take you
around the island and will take care of you.
- Thank you.
- He's awesome this guy. Thank so much my man.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
- I appreciate it.
- I really miss you.
- Aww - Aww
(laughing)
(upbeat music)
- So yeah, that was quite emotional, almost emotional
I almost, like, was like wow. It was hard.
Even after two days of having a driver that's
taking me around the island and to some of the most amazing
waterfalls here. It was hard to let him go.
But that's the thing. That's the spirit of this country
and these people and just unbelievable, probably one of the
best sunsets I've seen in my life.
And so everyone at Siquijor usually, most people
in Siquijor go to Paliton Beach to watch the sunset.
So make sure you make an effort to go and see the
sunset at Paliton Beach and yeah otherwise
Czar's place, I think it's called or Czar's Palace,
is where everybody goes on a Friday night.
I'll even throw up a couple photos of that.
I was there for about a half an hour.
So I'll show you some of that and lot's of
beautiful quiet restaurants around here as well.
And one single road that wraps around the entire island.
There are caves up in the centre
of the island in the mountains.
Never had time to go to those.
But yeah, so I hope you enjoyed the videos
and if you come to Siquijor, let me know
and I hope you enjoyed the journey
and continue to follow this one.
So, have an awesome day and I'm off to
jump on a boat to head back to Dumaguete.
And then from there, I don't know what I'll do,
I'll probably go back to the waterfall or maybe
head on somewhere else. Welcome to paradise.
