With the rainy season here in Siargao, I'm remembering one of the scariest moments of my life, in Bolivia (It's not the time I went blind!). Have you seen this one yet? 🌧️ https://youtu.be/qpPqlwFZHSY

I just updated the look of this video because I felt the old one didn't capture how hard this actually was.

Have you seen my Philippines food fail yet?

Tomorrow’s video was one of the hardest I’ve ever made.
“No Food Challenge Disaster | Solo Trekking Philippines” goes live here tomorrow…
and it’s already live on Patreon for early access ❤️

If you missed the setup, the prep video is still up:

Those warnings? They mattered more than I expected.

I also want to take a moment to say thank you. Truly.
To my new Channel Members, everyone who sent Super Thanks, and my Patreon supporters - you are the reason I can keep choosing stories like this instead of playing it safe.

This channel exists because of your trust, encouragement, and belief in slow, honest adventure storytelling. Whether you comment, share, watch quietly, or support financially - I see you, and I’m grateful.

See you tomorrow.
This one changed me. 🌿

woke up today feeling so grateful. ❤️

A huge thank you to @Wynnie0204 for the incredibly generous Super Thanks and for the beautiful words: “Be bountiful and healthy.”

Such a simple blessing - but it carries so much heart. Messages like this remind me why I keep sharing my journeys, my adventures, and the little moments along the way.

To everyone here: thank you for walking with me. Your presence, your comments, your kindness… it all means more than you know. 🌿✨

Wishing you all the same blessing:
May you be bountiful. May you be healthy. And may you always find beauty wherever the trail leads. 🤍

🚨 NEW VIDEO DROPS TODAY! 🚨
This one nearly didn’t make it to YouTube.

While I was living in a remote village in the Philippines, my phone - my ONLY camera, mic, and editing tool - died on me.

Then the island brownout hit… for two days.
Charging, backing up footage, even editing became a survival skill of its own.

But I refused to give up on this story.
And today… it’s finally going live. 🙌🔥

This isn’t a wilderness survival video. It’s a lesson in real survival - the kind that comes from community, generosity, and bayanihan.

Two weeks of rice, cabbage, stream snails, and the kindness of strangers who didn’t stay strangers for long.

⏰ The video goes live in 1 hour - don’t miss it!
And if you want to watch it right now, it’s already available for my Patreon members. ❤️

Can’t wait to share this one with you. This experience reshaped me in ways I didn’t expect. 🐌🌾
