LIFE in the FORESTS OF ZAMBOANGA (Philippines Subanen Community)

I SPENT 36 HOURS IN THE FORESTS OF ZAMBOANGA. This was a beautiful mountain home in Nanga-Nangan, Tigbao, Zamboanga del Sur. Nearby is a Subanen community, a people who have been living on the peninsula for over a thousand years, and who I was very interested in visiting. It turns out - they are very much like us! A new exploration in the Philippines begins, as I start to experience the vibrant diversity of the Zamboanga Peninsula! UPDATE: Agh! I forgot to subtitle at around 13 minutes! The explanation of why the Subanens moved from the river. This is the translation: "Before, the Subanens lived beside the river. But something happened regarding their belief that a Big Flood was coming. So now they had to move to the hills instead." ================ Follow me on FACEBOOK -   / kumanderd   Daily updates on INSTAGRAM -   / kumanderdaot   If you want to EMAIL ME - [email protected] Support me on PATREON - as little as $5 a month helps me create better content!   / kumanderdaot   FIVE THIRSTY MERCHANDISE AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE!
