About Me:

My bio is pretty random: In short, I am a professional singer/songwriter from Toronto, Canada who moved to Manila, Philippines which sorta became my Hollywood because my first Youtube channel MIKEYBUSTOSVIDEOS grew popular due to Filipino comedy videos. Meanwhile, I'm also a big biology geek who is obsessed with ants, so I built an internationally operating ant business supported by another popular channel called ANTSCANADA, and well basically, today I travel and tour around the world doing what I love so I wanted to start this vlogging channel, in hopes to encourage you guys to follow your dreams no matter how random, by showing you what happened when I followed mine! You just never know where life will take you when you listen to the yearnings of your heart!

    I am going to agree with you, having lived in Ontario (yes even in Toronto) and now I have decided to be in Quebec. The people here are very cultured and involved. They still attend theater shows like broadways, magic shows, go for walks, they have a whole section dedicated to fine cheese, paté, cretons, baguettes, etc. in their grocery store!! They will pay top dollar for amazing wine, bread or cheese. The beautiful people, the surrounding, the buildings, the monuments, the diversity and the share of culture even when it comes to food. They have all types of food here. I can honestly say they are very warming. I don't know if anyone understands what I mean but yeah...

  • OMG! I feel like crying watching this video. I'm in Montréal also and i also have my own story to share on how Montréal changed my life. Life here is difficult but definitely beautiful. 😍
  • @bethbarclay855
    I want to move to Montreal now. The colours are so beautiful. Thank you for showing us.
  • @willowwinkle
    I love your Montreal story - and I think it's part of how you got into success mode. I really feel like we sometimes have to break our dependence on our old story/environment to really make big changes. Kind of wish I would have done this in my 20s.

    40:42 "Move somewhere far and different" Love that advice! We recently moved and it really was a challenge living in an empty apartment like literally empty and just sleeping on cardboards for the first few nights. But it is true that it gives you a hard reset and lets you learn how to stand up again. Soon, we'll be moving in Cavite hoping to see you and RJ 😁
  • @MsKimko32
    Favorite line of the whole vlog, “what is this again? …… salad”😂 love being on this tour with y’all! Thanks for showing us around!
  • @elainemd6303
    Seeing how chill you guys are in all your travels makes me think how cool it would be to tag along too in real life. Thank you for "bringing us" with you in your trips!
  • @mikeschiesel2852
    Mikey, you have learned from your parrots...when you are enjoying your food, your eyes are pinning, lol.🦜
  • @lAdrianl
    Thank you for taking us along and sharing your stories! I really enjoyed the vlog. I plan on moving to another country soon and starting a different life and it was nice to hear you talk about that.
  • @TurfSurf
    I felt the same way about Montreal. I fell in love with it when I was 29 after I visited it for the first time, it’s truly an amazing place for the minds and hearts.
  • Wow!!! Mompy, thanks for bringing me in different places…just love your being natural…
  • @HomeChefRichie
    This vlog was really special! I hope folks recognize all the wisdom you’ve shared in this vlog. Also, I appreciate everything you’ve shared, I think it takes quite a lot of courage to open up your life and just put it on display like this. Thank you for that. I love, love, love Montreal! Ya’ll visited so many of my favorite places and it was awesome to see them all again. So many incredible memories I’ve got from Montreal over the years (decades actually, LOL). I love that ya’ll ate some incredible food! Poutine is a whole experience all in itself!! I hope you got tons of maple syrup to take home (there’s nothing like Montreal Maple Syrup). Mikey, your story times are always awesome, this one was very special. I’ve always encouraged my niece and nephews to “take a chance” while they’re young. That’s the time to try new things, experience new places and, as the song says… sing like no one’s listening, love like you’ve never been hurt, spend like you don’t need the money and dance line no one is watching, LOL. Funny enough, Montreal was the place that I actually came out to one of my nephews. There must be something in the aire…LOL. Ya’ll are having an incredible trip and, I appreciate you sharing with us!! Now, back to Toronto… I’m excited for some awesome family vlogs. Ya’ll be safe and I’ll see ‘ya next time.

  • @bengmandal631
    Thank you Mikey for sharing beautiful places in Montreal ! Awesome!
  • @emmetee9675
    You can see how much Montreal means to you by the way your eyes brighten when you reminisce about your time there. It was so neat seeing the European influenced architecture of the buildings. It has such an elegance that you can’t stop looking at.
  • @Otii
    It's so fun to see a vlog of my city from your perspective 😊 Hope you guys are having a great time!
