  • You being proud and therefore sharing in our sense of pride as Filipinos really is an honor Mike.
  • This is new to me, Not a lot of Filipinos know About this history of seafarers in South Africa .WOW you made us proud
  • I had no idea there were Filipino early settlers in South Africa, love the history lesson, views and choice of music👍🏼 You two look so lovely together and such a good looking couple! You look so happy Mike🥰
  • Such a beautiful vlog ❤️ thank you Mike! I am so proud and emotional watching it. There is a proud Filipino heritage in Cape Town, South Africa ❤️I am part of the Pastor Clan. We were very honored to accompany my inlaws to the family reunion in Palompon, Leyte in Dec 2018 🌏 Looking forward to visiting the beautiful Philippines again soon ❤️🇵🇭

    Mike, it's wonderful to know that there's a place in South Africa that's honoured the Filipinos who settled there and passed away. I hope the remnants they left will serve a strong reminder that Filipinos could be anywhere in the world and are welcomed as much as when foreigners come to the Philippines being received with open arms. Btw, I would just be straightforward with this but, it is completely appreciative if you could likewise show your partner in your videos.. Although you say "we", but the other half of the "we" remains unidentified 95 percent of the time. If you're proud of already being like part of the Filipino "culture" then it is more than appreciative if you could furthermore show that feeling if your viewers "see" your Filipina partner. Thanks and all the best to you two!!
  • amazing vlog as always Mike. New place, new faces and different races. Hope you can explore more of that place for us. God bless and enjoy
  • The view is so breathtaking! ❤️❤️❤️Thank you Mike for showing us this! 🙏👌

    Wow! What a beautiful country! Thanks for sharing this information about my country and especially the recognition of my fellow Filipinos - very proud and so much respect❣️Finally, we got to see your new GF, and she's beautiful and seems to have that loving, nurturing, sweet, playful personality and kind eyes at that! You both seem to make each other happy❣️🥰 I’m glad for you, guys, and I wish you the best! Until next time - Mabuhay❣️🇵🇭🇺🇸❣️

    Wow, you taught me something about Filipinos that I did not know. I knew that indigenous people from the Philippines were seafarers and had traveled to Africa early on. I did not know that some of them settled there. Thank you. God bless.
  • South Africa is so beautiful. ❤️ Good luck and best wishes to you both.
  • Breathtaking landscape and scenery. Well-kept too by the government. So tidy and smart, orderly and elegant. As for Manila Steps, that's the first time for me to know that they migrated to SA in 1840. That's very historical. Filipinos must know about this forgotten part. The Filipinos also introduced agriculture and farming in the old days in California, when they were the settlers over 200 years ago or so. Thanks for this information video and a wow series. As for GF now being shown here, she is gorgeous indeed. Cheers!
  • Same as the first settlement of Filipino in the fishing village in the bayou of Louisiana.
  • Live, Love and be happy always, Mike. You look very happy together. She’s beautiful. I’m following your vlogs. What an awesome trip🥰
  • @tinaseil2027
