Hello, friends! In this series, I'll answer almost all your questions from the comments. These will include topics like... how I met my Filipina girlfriend, how old she is, how much housing costs, how much it costs to live in the Philippines, public transportation in the Philippines, sewage systems, underwater photography, and much, much more. Meanwhile, I'm filming a regular vlog: we go snorkeling on the beach, filming the beautiful underwater world there, then we go to a waterfall and have coffee in the mountains with a beautiful view, while I answer questions. On the way back, we also stopped at a hot springs I'd never been to before, and we had a blast in the pool. So, watch it all for yourself, enjoy, friends!

Hi, my name is Dima. Almost a year ago, I left Russia, specifically Moscow, where I lived for the last six years (I'm originally from the city, by the way). I left my job in Astrakhan and now live in the Philippines, in a bamboo house by the sea. Negros Island, 20 km from Dumaguete City. I do videography and make money selling stock footage.
You can see what stock footage is here -

I also make a YouTube vlog, a lifestyle vlog, travel, self-improvement, and tutorials. I also enjoy underwater photography, snorkeling, diving, trekking, mountaineering, and more. :)

A series about my first six months living here in the Philippines (how, why, and what for).
I also filmed from Moscow, as I pack my things.

I filmed my entire typical week in the Philippines on my iPhone.
This is how we live in the Philippines.
