439 days that led us to LIVE in the Philippines 🇵🇭🇺🇸

It’s been 439 days since our family first stepped foot in the enchanting country of the Philippines. Since then, we’ve returned from the U.S. 3 more times, visited 23 of its 7,000 islands, and experienced everything from off-grid houseboats and beachfront glamping to chicken blood and fertilized duck embryos. What’s more is that we’ve fallen completely in love with the filipino people and culture — and found our new BFF family along the way. So enchanted are we with “Asia's Pearl of the Orient” that we’ve now leased a second home in Manila’s BGC neighborhood so that we can spend even more time exploring, zip lining, canyoneering, diving, boating, shopping, and of course, eating.

Well, we just launched our very first episode on our new Live the Philippines channel and BOY is it a doozy! Over 4 hours of incredible adventures showing you how we fell in love with the Philippines. We’ll take you back to our very first visit in September 2022 and show you our journey to where we are now, just over one year later. Moving forward, we’ll be launching an endless supply of new Philippines content, beginning with a behind-the-scenes look at how we found our apartment in BGC and the journey to make it our home when we fly back on Christmas Day! 😱

If you’ve been following our journey on our ABC channel but never went back to see all of our dozens of Philippines episodes, this is a great way to get caught up. And if this is your first time watching the Lockwood family, this video will get you up-to-speed quickly on twhat . Thank you for watching and thank you for supporting our family! ❤️🫶🏼🇵🇭

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.
