Here we are in an area of Manila called Bonifacio Global City, or BGC. This is one of our favorite places to hang out in the Philippines because it’s also home to our best friends from the Mom duty channel. But before we meet back up with them, we’re gonna explore one of the top destinations in the city: Bonifacio high street. This 6-block development is equal parts public park, shopping center, and urban promenade, with some of the highest end eateries and real estate in town. Let’s get started.

ABOUT US
We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience—up close and in person—all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.

Keep vlogging about Philippines, BGC in particular. You’ll be getting lots of subs and views from millions of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW) and Filipino migrants around the world-plus Filipinos living inside the Philippines. We love you guys❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸

Awesome! very details ❤
I’m following bc you have class
Wow El Nido, Safari that is life. Traveling
I would definitely go visit that place when I come back to visit Manila. I will try all the different foods. YUMMY 😊
Haha why you still Rolling
Husband's back 20 Sept 23 AKA Dennis & Eflida Ceniza Kjolso – I just signed up for your first meet & greet with Mom Duty.
We will be at our home on Mactan Island, Cebu for five months starting in Nov. It would be exciting to meet the family's that I
am kind of living with as you travel around the world. My wife's brother lives in Makati so we would visit with him and be close
to come over the the BGC area. Here's hoping we are early enough to get an invite. 😁
I just love you guys when you eat!
Yet all stay ohhh sooo fit !!!
Thank you for another DEVOURING episode ABC fam. Kudos for finding cheap everyday priced eats like 99php at BGC! That'a gold😊😊😊
your kids are so lucky to have Adventurous parent's,you have such a great family bond,enjoy your vacation in philippines,can't wait to see your reaction about how to celebrate filipino christmas🥰ENJOY
Filipinos aren't really friendly. We just love the Lockwoods, so we're nice to you.
This is just so awesome and wonderful ❤🎉
Dont worry u can pronounce SIOMAI whatever u want as long as its understandable ❤
I love this family. Enjoy your stay in the Philippines
Your pronunciation for siaomai was fine; your buddy’s reaction came off pretentious there.
Drooling to the max! 😱
Try to visit the American soldiers cementery just 10-15mins .walk.its also in bgc u will mesmerize and find peaceful and know the history about world war 2
Try canopy walk in El Nido.
Yummy,food trip ❤
13:21 Aw Erin! Just wanted to say that that was actually a valid pronunciation! "Shu mai" is closer to how they pronounce it in Cantonese (so in places like Hong Kong). But yes, it is referred to as "siomai" in the Philippines more 😂 Just a little fun fact from someone who's half Chinese! Love watching you guys btw. I'm a Filipino YouTuber too living quite close to BGC. You guys definitely make me appreciate it even more 🤍
i want to buy a condo in BGC soon… hope to see you guys there…
Definitely a place for a family to enjoy their meal during vlog filming. 👍
Glad you loved BGC, and the food. And good to know you'll be spending New Year's Eve here. It's a "war zone" though, lol. Firecrackers are a thing here.
Btw, another recommendation on your return: check out our hot springs capital in Los Baños, Laguna which is only about 3 hrs drive from Manila. Lots of nice hot springs resorts there with a great view of Mt. Makiling. 🙂
You are such a good family. Thank you for making the Phls your fun country. Yes come on November and sornd your holidays here. Enjoy and have a safe trip.
