Sleeping In An ABANDONED HOUSE In Ifugao! Philippines Rice Terraces in Mayoyao
MANY HOUSES AND RICE TERRACES WERE ABANDONED IN MAYOYAO, IFUGAO OVER THE LAST FEW DECADES.
But now there's a plan to restore them.
Some of Mayoyao's rice terraces are UNESCO World Heritage listed - which makes this even more critically important! Keeping a culture alive - it's so important!

TATTOOED in KALINGA (His Grandfather Taught Apo Whang-Od)
Переглядів 34 тис.19 годин тому
TATTOOS HAVE A DEEP MEANING IN KALINGA. And in Lubo, Tanudan, I discovered that there is a deep yet unknown culture of tattooing, that still lives on today! The result of a peace pact between Lubo and Buscalan during her younger years, Apo Whang-Od visited Tanudan and was tattooed herself, then shared the culture in Buscalan. A beautiful village surrounded by terraces, Lubo's three barangays fo...
BEST Philippines Native Cooking? RARE River Fish Of Conner, Apayao
Переглядів 40 тис.День тому
IS THIS THE BEST PHILIPPINES NATIVE COOKING? In Conner Apayao, there is a rare river fish called AMLAD. The diet of the Isneg people here is mostly this fish, plus fruits and vegetables cooked to perfection. With local vlogger Kelly Legman Kengay, they cooked up a feast, of course with a traditional blessing for the harvest to begin. Then I discover bugnay wine at Gummon Farm, before travelling...
Smoking A WHOLE NATIVE PIG In Apayao! Philippines Sinapan Cooking!
Переглядів 98 тис.День тому
WE SMOKED A WHOLE NATIVE PIG IN APAYAO! Sinapan is a traditional Isnag method of preserving meat that's been caught, usually through hunting in the forest. Centuries ago, refrigeration did not exist - so locals had to smoke meat instead to keep it for as long as 3 months. We travel to the Paco Valley for this, a forested part of Kabugao in Apayao. First, they flame-grill the whole pig over the ...
Philippines CHEAPEST Fish In Luzon's Most REMOTE Island (Calayan, Babuyan Islands)
Переглядів 153 тис.14 днів тому
130 PER KILO LAPU-LAPU?! The Babuyan Islands are maybe Luzon's most remote islands. Accessible only by a 6 hour boat ride from the northernmost tip of mainland Luzon, they are cut off from the rest of the country any time winds tip over 25kph; the ocean is exposed and open on both the Pacific and West Philippine Sea side and the waves would be impossible even for the most skilled navigator. But...

Climbing MOUNT PINATUBO (Philippines Active Volcano)

MOUNT PINATUBO - A BEAUTIFUL DISASTER. The term was coined about the eruption in 1991, casting a previously unknown volcano into the limelight. Lahar flows decimated communities near the mountain, but it formed a beautiful crater lake that is now enjoyed by so many. From Baguio I rode to the jump-off point in Capas, Tarlac - and then with my friends from Gears/ARB Philippines we drove up one of...
Surviving Philippines MOST EXTREME Mountains! Rocky Rice Terraces (Tacadang, Benguet)

SURVIVING PHILIPPINES MOST EXTREME MOUNTAINS IS NOT EASY. But these amazing humans have managed it. Atop the rocky mounds of Tacadang, part of Kibungan in Benguet, in a landscape that reminds me of Machu Picchu, are rice terraces built over 100 years ago. The road getting here is new and rough (but better than trekking a steep uphill for 6 hours!) and the view phenomenal. Visiting the rice terr...

    Kumander Daot, I am from Mayoyao (at least my father is) and watching you in the US. I can barely recognize the place. But I can still feel the pain of cooking rice. That is from harvesting, to drying, to removing the rice husk, gathering firewood. By the time, I cook my rice, I have to get prepared to start all over.
