Brandon & Arlene
Hello! I'm Wise, a Filipina with a deep love for my country and a passion for sharing its beauty with the world. As a writer, blogger, and videographer, I capture the essence of the Philippines through my eyes, hoping to give foreign visitors a true taste of what makes these islands so special.
From the vibrant streets of Manila to the tranquil beaches of Palawan, my journey is about uncovering the hidden gems and everyday wonders that define the Filipino spirit. My articles and blogs are not just travel guides; they are invitations to explore, to feel, and to fall in love with the Philippines, just as I have.
Through my videos, I strive to bring the sights, sounds, and stories of my homeland to life. Whether it's the local cuisine, the colorful festivals, or the warm smiles of the people, I aim to prepare visitors for an authentic experience.
For those seeking more than just a vacation, the Philippines can be a place of discovery and, perhaps, even love. My goal is to be your guide, not just to the places you'll visit, but to the experiences and connections that await in this beautiful corner of the world. Welcome to the Philippines, through my eyes. Let's explore together!

Hello FilAm couples. To Brandon welcome to the Phils. So to Brandon being new in the Phils. I recommend you watching other American vloggers who also married a Filipino woman to give you some “pointers” or a “birds eye view” of living here in the Phil. and with a Filipina. So have a good life and God bless you both.

Great to see you both together again (July 2023 Vlogs) and i’ll hopefully be back too in October to be with my beautiful Filipina whom i’m in an LDR with. Love & best wishes to you both. 💕💕💕💕
Thanks so much Graham
I’m interested to know what your long term plans are?
How did you two meet? How long was it until you both in person for the 1st time ? Congrats and thank for sharing your journey
We made a video for that…”your questions answered”. Thanks for watching!
Hello Brandon and Arlene, i’m starting to watch your channel today. Your 1st meetings LDR’s are bringing back a flood of memories to me ,,, and tears !!! For my filipina who i miss dearly every single day . But soon she is arriving in Canada as we got married back in June 2023 ..praise God !!!
GL to you, thanks for watching!
Im surprised to see you two eating with forks. When first met my wife and her family in 2016 in calbayog the first thing they did was take off my sneakers and gave me slippers. Then they took turns wiping the sweat off my face. We sat down to eat and they asked if i want silverware. But seeing no one else was using it i just ate with my fingers like them. Oh and i had to sit down first and start eating before anyone else would. Non stop fanning me. It was different but i spent alot of time learning about their customs and traditions before i went there. I picked up some warsy words before i went too but theres very few places to find the waray language. I totally felt at home with her family. They asked alot of questions and most of the time we were all laughing. They were shocked i guess that i wasnt like most Americans or at least what they thought of americans. It was a little akward though as they wouldnt let me pick up my plate or rinse it. I wasnt allowed to do that. The food was crazy good. As soon as one meal was done they were preparing for the next meal. Each time i thought id just had the best meal of my life. So so good.
Same experience as me, sometimes we eat with hands only depends on the situation. Thanks for watching!
