I swear this is your best video yet! Love the national motto of the Philippines " They Don't Care".🤣

Hi Scotty. On your scooter purchase. You do not need the power, UNTIL YOU NEED THE EXTRA POWER. You will need the extra power when you tour around in STEEP mountain areas. Especially if you have a lady on the back. You will really notice and need extra power with a load on your bike and going up hills. Or, you will really appreciate the extra power on a really long ride. If you want a lower powered one that is OK too. It will work perfect for you about 80% of the time. Or, maybe later give the low power scooter to your lady, then buy a big power one for yourself. Q is a smart guy on bikes.

What a great video! Well organized! A lot of things mentioned I would have never have thought of. I like the animal noises but the distress kind is tough to hear. Some things remind me of how it is in the Caribbean but you just can’t beat beauty!

[jamesballard]

Scott is the perineal optimistic pesimest. The dark sense of humor is up my alley. It's all true though, you have to make concessions for affordability. Nice having you back buddy.

Glad to see you posting. 154 Work/ 226 Calendar Days from Retirement. What an idea: A mall as a Retirement Home. Beats a Nursing Home in the west. As for the rest of the "irritants"... I work in Education Support, I'll be retiring after 29 years. If I didn't have patience, I would have run screaming for the exit long ago. Healthcare is one of the REASONS I'll be moving to the Philippines. Depending on the Service, in comparable facilities, with comparable Staff... You get BETTER care for 8% to 15% of the price in the US. Animals: I was a 4-H kid with Chickens, Ducks, Geese, and other noisy animals in the neighborhood...

Great post here and I’m glad you brought these issues to light. Im always hesitant to say anything because I’m met with all the excuses made for the poor uncaring service thats not given here in this country. Ive come to expect bad service when I’m out, but the lack of carrying still irks me. Thanks for sharing!

[defwind]

Ive been binge watching this channel for days. Really make me wish i could live there.

[sdleasia]

Probably your best video to date. You are always a straight shooter when it comes to your opinion.

[lescline]

Good video honest and upfront about what to expect. I can't put my finger on it right now. But for some reason, you sound more positive and upbeat since you came back.

[miketheman]

Yeah, people who can't live on a thousand dollars in the Philippines lack a lot of skills/qualities. Great video Scotty!

"If this waterfall was in Thailand, they would have built a resort around it..." Scotty Boy, comedic genius, proves powerfully once again why he is one of You Tube's greatest storytellers and advocates for life in the Philippines and the beautiful Philippine people. "They just don't care". "They don't care if there's a hair in your breakfast..." "They don't care!" Regular Guy RULES!

[instricallysafe]

The Nmax is not overly powerful , you just need to get used to it. Buying a bit larger/faster bike than you are comfortable with is typically recommended for novice riders. After a week or two of carefull riding, it will be perfect.

[liquidmath]

For anyone who has spent any time in the Philippines, this video is so spot on and hilarious. Great video, Scotty!

[daveleephoto]

Awesome vid Scotty Boy! Speaking the truth smoothly is your forte’

[denismoreau]

It’s so true life in the Phil’s can be frustrating so you have to take on the same attitude to survive here. The no care attitude . 😊

[daveyorke]

Thanks once again Scottie, I have been patiently waiting for next video. Nice job as usual. I am getting excited to visit the Phillis. If all goes well it will be in April. First stop Malaybalay then Samal Island. Good luck with scooter adventure. Just a word of advise from a veteran motorcycle rider, that power that scared you would soon dissipate in a short time frame maybe 2 weeks and you will no longer notice it. What you will notice is a bike that is under powered and hate it.

[koufax]

I agree with you 100%! All these YouTubers talk so black and white about each topic you said when in fact there is mostly grey. I like the Phillipines because everything is not so intense and life and death like the US. The US is so over regulated. So much drama repetitively in US news. I stop watching news here. Americans in general are contentious. I respect people wherever I go. It’s not my country. I get along very well abroad. It’s a great adventure. Great video.

Hi Scotty. Please take a motorcycle/scooter riding safety course. You will learn a lot of important information. Do it on your own bike or one just like it if possible. Nobody wants you to get injured and there are very real risk on 2 wheels. Get a bike with ABS. Traction control is even better if it is an option on the bike your want. Learn to use your front brake and about countersteering. Start learning now to get the head knowledge then you can apply it on the bike when you have it. Find an open area like an empty parking lot and practice practice practice. Get out of the city and in the province everything with be much better for a new rider.

"They say there are no Filipino restaurants in foreign countries, for obvious reasons."

OMG! I'm laughing my ass off for obvious reasons! This is pure gold, you should do stand-up comedy.😂😂😂😂😂
