𝙒𝙀’𝙍𝙀 𝘾𝙊𝙊𝙆𝙄𝙉𝙂 𝙎𝙊𝙈𝙀𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙉𝙂 𝙂𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙏!

Another week, another no vlog drop… 🥲

YouTube is still limiting our uploads to just 15 minutes, even though our actual vlogs are much longer! 😭

We’re still editing our videos, though, so once we’re allowed to upload longer videos again, we’ll be ready to release them all. Trust us, we have so many adventures waiting for you!

But while we wait, we’ve been cooking up something special… and IT’S HERE!

Introducing our website: www.chubexplorers.com! 🥳

Think of it as your new travel buddy—a place where you can revisit our adventures, discover the places we’ve been to, and find travel tips, itineraries, and guides to help you plan your own trips. You can also check out our favorite travel finds and booking links to help make planning your next getaway easier!

Even without a new vlog this week, we’re finding more ways to bring our adventures closer to you. And this is just the beginning!

Visit us at www.chubexplorers.com, explore the site, and let us know what you think! We’d love for you to be part of this new chapter of Chub Explorers. 💛

Sorry, mga Chubibis, no vlog drop again tonight.

We have some good news and some not-so-good news.

The good news is that we’ve gotten our hacked YouTube account back! 🎉 The not-so-good news is that it’s still not fully recovered. We’re currently experiencing technical issues, including being unable to upload videos longer than 15 minutes, even though the feature is enabled on our account.

We’re working with YouTube to get everything back to normal. Our vlog is READY, mga Chubibis! We’re just waiting for our YouTube account to be fully restored before we can share it with you.

Our final South Island New Zealand Road Trip vlog will take you to the breathtaking Milford Sound, along our drive from Queenstown to Christchurch with a stop in beautiful Wānaka, and around Christchurch as we ride the gondola and tram before heading back home to Manila. We can’t wait for you to see the last chapter of this adventure!

Our Disney Cruise Adventure vlog will also be delayed because of these ongoing issues. In the meantime, we’ll share some Shorts to give you a glimpse of our cruise experience. And if you have any questions about the Disney cruise, feel free to send us a message. We’ll do our best to help!

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support, mga Chubibis. After everything that happened to our channel, your messages and encouragement mean the world to us. We’re doing everything we can to get back to our regular uploads.

Hopefully, we can say “CHUBAY NA ULIT ANG VLOGS!” very soon!
Promise, Chubay, Chubay ulit tayo gagala!

𝙃𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙤 𝙢𝙜𝙖 𝘾𝙝𝙪𝙗𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙨!

We’re sorry, but we won’t be able to release a new YouTube vlog tonight.

The past few days have been a lot for us. We’re grateful that we’ve recovered our YouTube account, but there are still some aspects that aren’t back to normal, and we’re continuously working on getting everything sorted out. At the same time, we’re trying to get our schedules back on track and, most importantly, give ourselves time to recover from everything that happened.

As if that weren’t enough, life decided to throw in a few more surprises and stressors along the way. Sometimes, everything just happens all at once, and we need a little time to catch our breath.

But please don’t worry about us. We’re okay, and we believe we’ll come out of this stronger and better than before. We just need some time to get back to our usual routine, regain our momentum, and ease ourselves back into editing and creating the travel content you’ve come to love.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, prayers, and all the love you’ve been sending our way. Your support means more to us than you know.

We’ll be back when we’re ready, and we can’t wait to take you along on our next adventures!

𝗪𝗘 𝗚𝗢𝗧 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞!

After one of the most stressful 60 hours we’ve ever experienced as content creators, we can finally say it:

𝗖𝗛𝗨𝗕 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗟𝗢𝗥𝗘𝗥𝗦 𝗜𝗦 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞!

For those who may not know, our YouTube channel was hacked on October 4. The hackers took over our Google account, changed our security information, renamed our channel, and deleted our videos. With 85K+ subscribers and years of memories on that channel, losing access was absolutely heartbreaking.

For a while, we honestly didn’t know if we would ever get it back.

But today, we’re incredibly happy and relieved to say that 𝗪𝗘 𝗛𝗔𝗩𝗘 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗘𝗗 𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗢𝗥𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗟 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗧𝗨𝗕𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗟!

We want to thank everyone who prayed with us, reached out, shared our posts, gave us advice, reported the account, and simply kept cheering us on. To everyone who subscribed to our temporary channel and watched our old vlogs while we were trying to recover our original home — THANK YOU!

Your support during those stressful days meant more to us than you know.

We’re still cleaning up the channel and making sure everything is secure, but the most important thing is that 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗹, 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗼𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗯 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀.

One important lesson we want to share from this experience: 𝗣𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗕𝗘 𝗩𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗧. Be extremely careful with emails, especially those saying you have copyright violation, offering brand deals, sponsorships, partnerships, or anything that asks you to click a link or download a file. 𝘿𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙘𝙡𝙞𝙘𝙠 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙪𝙣𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙞𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙡𝙚𝙜𝙞𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙚. Even emails that look completely real can be phishing attempts.

This happened to us, and we hope sharing our experience can help prevent it from happening to someone else.

This experience reminded us just how much this community means to us.

We’re not taking any of this for granted.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝘀.

Now… back to traveling, vlogging, and making more memories!

With so much gratitude,

New Zealand roadtrip episode 3 dropping at 7pm. See yah!

𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩’𝙨 𝙪𝙥 𝙢𝙜𝙖 𝘾𝙝𝙪𝙗𝙞𝙗𝙞𝙨?

Episode 3 na ng New Zealand South Island Road Trip natin! This time, nagpunta kami sa super charming na Arrowtown, then umakyat sa Skyline Queenstown para sa cable car at Luge. And guys, hindi kami prepared sa Luge… sobrang nag-enjoy kami! Plus, ang ganda ng view ng Queenstown from above. Worth it talaga ang pag-akyat!

Of course, hindi puwedeng nasa Queenstown kami tapos hindi namin aalamin kung ano ba talaga ang hype sa Fergburger. At para balance ang savory at sweet, nag-Patagonia Chocolates na din kami. So, Fergburger ba ay hype lang or worth it talaga? At bakit parang kailangan naming bumalik for more Luge? Watch the full vlog and find out!

VLOG DROPPING TONIGHT AT 7PM!
See you on our YouTube channel!

Kahit gaano ka-busy ang buhay, kahit saglit lang ang time… we will always make time to celebrate you.

Kasi important ka, Chub Toni. Very important.

Kaya kahit may ginagawa ka pang pagwawalis, titigil talaga ang lahat para sa birthday mo. Kahit 18 seconds lang ang available namin.

Happy birthday! We may be busy, but never too busy to remind you that you are loved, appreciated, and… apparently, very easy to surprise.

Okay, balik na tayo sa pagwawalis.

From turquoise lakes to epic mountain views… tapos grocery run sa PAK’nSAVE. Ganito pala ang road trip sa New Zealand — bawat liko, may bagong “OMG, ang ganda!”

Episode 2 takes us from Lake Tekapo to Queenstown, with stops at Lake Pukaki, Ho**er Valley, Lindis Pass, and a quick room tour at Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park.

Pero ang tunay na tanong: ilang beses kami mapapahinto para mag-picture bago makarating sa Queenstown?
