  • Good on the girls for the courage to come to lapu lapu and giving this a good try. That cant be easy to do. Maybe misses her dad and old friends back home also. Great job Derek and Ai for opening your doors up for this opportunity.

  • Derick I remembered you thinking of doing a business with the lady who you helped with her house. I have watched a lot of the night market food in the Philippines and I have never seen any one selling something like Buffalo Wild wings there I wonder if it would work there

    • The cost is too high, which means we have to sell it at a higher price. That wouldn’t appeal to the student community for this specific location

    • @@qadventures my bad I thought it would be cheaper in the Philippines. How come even the franchises don’t have it I never saw it in any of the vlogs I watch I think it would be a great sell to the middle and upper class

  • Two things Derek, it is not uncommon to go to university and change your major once you have a better understanding. And more importantly, do Ai’s nieces perhaps feel uncomfortable around your frequent visitors and tenants?

    • They seem to be much more verbal with my guests. I speculate that they are intimidated by my authority figure

    • @qadventures Quite possible although I find your delivery is gentle but perhaps not in the Filipino way.

  • Maybe Keith thinks that you are disappointed in her . Like u say u and her just need to sit down and think things threw. God bless u n ai have a good filipino day derek

  • I think ts hard for her t o explain in English on how she feels uncomfortable. Maybe its the different lifestyle.

    English

    • 💯 agreed. Lifestyle. I tried my best to disclose to them and explained before they moved in, but in practice, it’s real different

  • Some people aren’t comfortable with change. She probably misses her family and friends back home as well. You also might have rules that she isn’t accustomed too. Sounds like it’s best for her to go back home and go to school there. It’s kind of you, Derek, for still offering to help. As long as she goes to school so she has options. Working at Jollibee is not an ideal choice. The fact that she suggested doing so shows how uncomfortable she is living there. Those are words of someone who feels defeated.

  • Sometimes change isn’t easy and when your a child having decisions made for you even if it’s made in your best interest can make you feel resentful for not being able to help those left behind knowing they are still struggling. I’ve been in those shoes myself a few times and although I’m greatful now as an adult still wish I could’ve been there for the ones I had left behind at the time. I Pray she will find the happiness she wants and desires.

  • Good Morning my Friend. It was a pleasure to meet Keth & her sister also. Very well spoken & I believe they will do great with Mentors like Ai & yourself! Take care. Lobster in Nov.!

  • No matter her situation, home is home. That’s why these kind of personal questions should be discussed off camera.

  • A chronically shy lady- my thoughts is she appreciates the blessings but just doesn’t know how to converse with you-and she is simply homesick- a super nice and decent lady from a fine family-thats my assessment .

  • I think maybe/possibly when she said she is not feeling comfortable its in the moments when she is chatting with you

  • Hi 👋 U2.People sometimes have trouble expressing themselves 👍. Keith is a young beautiful lady maturing into a successful woman 👍🙏. U BUDHA D & AI have big hearts ❤️ helping Keth out & are Angels 😇 in my book 👍🙏❤️. Please Support her 100% in whatever she decides to do👍🙏. GOD WILL HELP GUIDE HER LIKE HE DID YOU TO AI👍🙏😉
    Blessings 🙏🌸🌼🌺

    • That’s close minded, she’s 18, I believe she’s growing we all did if you support her decision and help her she’ll be successful maybe not to certain peoples standards but some people just need to stumble before they can succeed

  • Derek, I think she feels like a guest and hasn’t accepted it as home. In other words she’s home sick

    • Additionally she’s shy and a quiet person so regardless of whether or not you invite her to express her thoughts she will be hesitant because of that. So she just needs time to grow

  • You unintentionally put her in a very tuff situation. My heart breaks for her. I sense she wants to go home but is afraid to lose her chance for college.

    • @@qadventures you heart sunk but did not break. She’ll endure and make your proud you didn’t give up, maybe Ai can opening her up maybe a boy is involved as much is may sound bad it may be true she is 18

    • She does feel restricted, but she made more friends here than back home. It’s a solution we need to work on

    • @@qadventures goodluck, I know you have her best interest in mind, I was married to two Filipina’s helping the family is always their top priority, allowing her to choose a career path is great, maybe take her to an agency that deals with career guidance. Healthcare industry is where her individual freedom lies, being a stewardess is limited but other hospitality are open. Filipinas are some of the strongest people worldwide and caring I hope your mentorship helps along the way, open her mind. Maybe you could arrange some kind of career fair where different recruiters talk about job requirements and income potential

  • So awkward for her and for me to watch, what”s the purpose of this video? She reather go back eating only one meal a day then to stay with you, you need to question yourself first. Why?

    • The answer is pretty obvious when you think about it, instead of having a personal conversation he stuck the camera in her face and then published it for the hoards of sexpats that are the target demographic of this YouTube niche. He’s also had them over and in contact with the girls, most notably that “Regular Guy” creep and many more. I would wager that there’s more stuff going on when the camera is turned off, maybe nothing illegal but just general things that would creep any girl out.

    • ​@@timpike1616 *Regular Guy* lol that dude is weird & creepy. Something is off with that dude… I think its the alcohol.

  • Derek you are a wordly mature man should have handled her through AI as she being a filpina and relative could be better to guage her intentions and interest. You can take a horse to the water trough but cannot force it to drink. So let it be her way or the highway and learn the lessons of life in a hard way,if she not realise the facilities now offered.

    • Looking back at the video, I feel I would not take anything back. The girls need to learn how to deal with diversity and prosper

  • Damn thats rough but its reality. Reminds me of when i started college @ 18 yrs old living on campus. I drank partied and paid people to write essays for me. After 2 yrs i found out my mom owed $12k for loans paying out of state tutition costs. Its fantasy vs reality and its a fine line with this younger generation to somehow break through to them. Have them realize this is a one in a generational opportuniy. After i joined us army and paid her back but still at 45 yrs old hurts me to my core

  • I always feel your intention are good derek, though found you to be overbearing to the young girl in this video, learn as you go 😊

    • Yes. I agree. But it was done with purpose. To elevate their thought process and learn to deal with diversity

  • Derek, just continue to support her decision your the one who will be proud of her when she succeeds. Great comments and whatever she decides I know you’ll do the right thing by her

  • I completely understand that starting over in a new place can be difficult. But I know that with Derek’s help Keth will have a lot of opportunities to fulfill dreams, he is doing a lot to give back to the local community, as well as creating jobs 😊

    • No wonder she’s uncomfortable, because she is being filmed and displayed for old creeps like you

  • Good luck to Keth in her studies, and future flight attendant job – she’s going to travel and see the world. Keth, study well so you can pass that exam!

  • She definitely not shy of the camera…she been on camera a while time
    She didn’t wanted to be on camera answering questions about her business… but was peer pressured to be on. Not everything has to be showcase onto social media.
    If she comfortable around your guests and get nerves around you its a You problem. Maybe instead of trying to be her a Father try being her friend or a older brother.

    • I never claim to be perfect nor a know it all. But I am walking the walk and doing something with my passion

  • She is homesick. She should definitely realize that it’s not forever but it can set her up for forever. So many poor people dream of having the opportunity that is provided for her there. It’s not easy picking up and moving at her age and it’s not easy period being her age either. I know that you will still help her being at home but she’s not going to have you right there looking out for her best interest. You and Ai are good people. See you again in a month or so Q. ✌🏼

  • So much to process in the mind from this vlog,not just for Keth but me too 🙃 I reckon if Keth could have edited this vlog it would have lasted about 30 seconds,maybe 2 minutes 😅 but at least it has helped you in being an ‘eye opener’ where you can stop a problem from growing and get some fixes in place and restart. I hope Keth is happy to carry on with your help and can envisage the rewards in the future. Best wishes 🙏

  • God bless all but the most important thing is being saved by grace Jesus Christ is coming the tribulation is coming and the New World Order is the platform for the Antichrist fulfilling Bible scriptures we see corrupt governments all around the world and War so seek first the kingdom if you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God that he died was buried in resurrected with all your heart your sin will be washed in his blood and you will have eternal Heavenly lives saved by grace the free gift of God that you cannot earn or by number one number two live your life for Christ do good and help others as you making a living and most of all smile with that beautiful

  • I just think she’s shy and she’ll be fine at your house she seems like a really nice girl it’s just good now that it’s out in the open and things will only get better she might just feel guilty because she’s not paying any rent or anything and probably feels guilty about not working in the motorbike business but I think it will be good for her she stays there and finish his college you’re very nice to help or you’re a good man😊😊
