NEVER did we expect to be visiting Zamboanga Sibugay during our time in the Philippines but here we are…and we couldn’t be more thankful we got the opportunity! In this vlog OUR FIRST DAY IN ZAMBOANGA SIBUGAY ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ we take you guys with us on our day of travel from Cebu City to the island of Mindanao. An island with a very rich past, not always great, a present with prominent progress, and a future as bright and beautiful as the people who call this island home โค๏ธ

When we were so graciously invited by Governor Dr. Ann K. Hofer, to visit her home of Zamboanga Sibugay we were a bit nervous. Of course we were honored however we had heard stories from friends, and of course those random articles on the internet, that painted Zamboanga as a place to be scared about visiting. A place riddled in kidnappings and political unrest. Basically a do not fly zone for many nationalities and a place where standing out is a bad thing.

However, we have NEVER been ones to travel in fear or push our curiosity aside just because of here-say or the past. Heck if we all lived in the past there would never be progress or a future. So, we accepted the incredible offer and made our way there!

We won’t give too much away but let’s just say Zamboanga Sibugay is not a province stuck in the past. In fact, quite the opposite.

— THIS IS PART 1 of a mini TRAVEL GUIDE series to the province of Zamboanga Sibugay! So be on the lookout for more videos in the coming weeks!!

* WE WANT TO GIVE A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO GOVERNOR DR. ANN K. HOFER & THE ENTIRE STAFF OF THE ZAMBOANGA SIBUGAY TOURISM DEPARTMENT (and everyone in this video) *. You guys not only showed us complete graciousness but truly gave us an experience unlike any other. We can’t wait to be back again!!

And thank you Arjay for the amazing night drone shot!

  1. You have to check out dipolog city and dapitan city cuz you so near oir place such a wonderful placeโค๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ

  2. Love that small and beautiful church in the middle of the mangroves and what a magnificent drone shot at night. You both are lucky to be invited by the governor of Zamboanga. A very great honor and privilege. Can't get over those beautiful drone shots of the rice fields and the church. Zamboanga is a mix Spanish speaking people and there are a lot of gorgeous places to explore and cultures to know too. Enjoy your travelsโค๏ธ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ’ฅ

  3. I think small planes, when traveling on a short distance, donโ€™t go up as high unlike bigger planes that are traveling on a much longer distance. Therefore, the smaller planes donโ€™t hit as much turbulence as the bigger planes that are flying at a higher altitude.

  4. Hi lovelies, we really appreciate your episode in Zamboanga, you did your best to show its beauty. Thank you so so much โค๏ธโ€ฆ this video is one of a kind. We love you always, Filipino family living in Belgium ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ช ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผโค๏ธ

  11. A friend of mine knew someone who was a Mormon missionary. He's an American. He was once assigned to Zamboanga as his area. He fell in love to the place and when he got his first born he named her baby girl "Zamboanga".

  12. Great video Guys. I have enjoyed all your videos in the Philippines. Drone footage just spectacular! I loved it You are becoming master film makers.

  15. Great to see you guys exploring Mindanao which hardly gets notice by foreign vloggers.

  16. you see that! it was stunning view, province life is comfortable than the city, its full of local traditional traits, its more touristy today than a decades ago from 1986 to 2015 hope that government leaders in the south western of Mindanao would welcome and promote tourism
