NEW Side Of SIARGAO, Rebuilding Human Trust During Lockdown
May 4th 2020 - We made new friends today: Martin & Ave who also make YouTube videos got stranded in Siargao a few days before the lockdown and we began getting to know them through their vlogs from the other side of the island. Vital community information was shared between us and we made a connection online.
Now that the quarantine situation is easing, everyone around us is taking steps to resume some form of normality. The locals are opening their shops and people can be seen on the streets bringing life back to the emptiness caused by the pandemic.
So when Martin & Ave asked us to join them for lunch at a villa in Tawin Tawin, we decided to take the examples of those around us and begin the process of rebuilding human trust.
Siargao island is in a unique situation wherein there are absolutely no cases of the virus at all, so now being 7 weeks into a quarantine for an illness that didn't even arrive here, many on the island are feeling ready to start becoming human again.
We joined our new friends at the Mango Tree, and also met another couple that they had been on lockdown with that live here in Siargao for part of the year. Story had a fantastic time in the swimming pool and we all learned how to play some Filipino games before sunset. It was a fantastic day.
For now we are going to upload a daily video diary of the Siargao Island Lockdown scenario. This is day 48. Our regular family travel vlogs will resume publishing later.

We will be updating it day by day.
