@Q Adventures I wish I had visited the Philippines younger in life. I feel I would have prepared myself better to retire early. Still retiring early but will have savings and etc to last many years til I collect SS.
@Q Adventures correct, life is short and I definitely have learned that. Just going through a few things and getting things setup before I fly back over.👍
derrick i have a idea for a show you love to interview people why not interview the guitar makers on lapu lapu i am sure many here in usa would be interested in the amazing artizans plus for me can you do a show up on tops the look out over cebu city i only made it ip there at night time i would love to see the views during the day
I was thinking of doing Tops after getting a drone. But I’ll do my best.
The guitar makers. Do you have any leads? I would love to do it as it features local tradition, culture and artisan that you speak. I am just not musical so I would be hesitant to speak words of ignorance
I haven’t noticed as these bigger bikes are extremely rare due to toad infrastructure, cost and ease of getting around. I looked at a Kawasaki Ninja 636 and the price is similar to a Toyota Wigo. So for a local to choose a big bike or small car, 90% of the time it’s a small car. But you CAN get it through special order
No more rooms Eddy. I have 2 kids living with me now. I have 10 bikes in my fleet now but the demand leaves my garage empty most of the time. 1st opportunity I get, I will make an updated video of my inventory
Gotcha. I’ll make an updated video in the next few days. I have a return the day after tomorrow and I should have 1 of each model and at least I can speak on it then
I brought one home with me, so they’re free now.
A filipina told me they learn nail work in school.
@Timmy! Massages too!
@Steven Thomas yep!
@Timmy!They do I’ve seen it
I got a manicure pedicure at El Spa when I was there. Tipped the two young ladies doing the work and came to less than $20.

It’s never too early or late. Do with what you have on hand. Life is too short to reminisce or, worst, regret

Cool. Come visit if you come through Cebu
@qadventures will do.👍

I’m glad the gentleman made changes to enjoy his life … Have you seen any #honda #xr650l in your area or the PI ??

Spoiling the young ladies I see. Has Jon gotten out and seen the city of Cebu.
I heard he been all over the Philippines.
A good home base.
Many time over. John has the freedom of a bike. He runs cebu so much that he is desensitized
Need to see your lineup of motorcycles for rent. You have a few. Are you still renting out rooms as well?

@Q Adventures it the size I was looking at. I always felt like I was riding a moped, smaller then a 175 cc
Gotcha. I’ll make an updated video in the next few days. I have a return the day after tomorrow and I should have 1 of each model and at least I can speak on it then
Great educational video. Thank you Derek and John for sharing. The info is a big help. Keep up the good work.
Without saying it directly, John basically told us he isn’t sure if what he just accomplished can even be attempted in 6 months from now let alone yrs
@Q Adventures meaning I better hurry and quit wasting time. 50 now and I want adventure.
Did he climb that huge mountain in Mindanao?
Knowing John, he probably did. I just personally haven’t been to Mindanao so I didn’t know the reference
Derek, good story. Thank You for sharing.
Great job John. Very nice of you. God bless. Happiness for all.
1:34…Dam that’s not cool….don’t get used to the luxury
They are Ai’s nieces and they live with us now. They will be closely monitored
Damn just got back internet, gone the whole day
Derek, help out Mountain Angel, Gel. She has her comments turned off. Not been able to comment on her vlogs.
Ok. Right away
@Q Adventures thanks
@Q Adventures it’s working now.
its hard to change back to the U.S. reality after having been touched by the Philippines….my feet are in ohio…my mind and heart are elsewhere.
October is just a blink on an eye bro
John is brave
I don’t think it’s bravery, John. More so “curious” and the refusal of just excepting life
