In one of the vlogs or video blog of a Canadian youtuber known as Becoming Filipino, he went
to a fish market in Tawi-tawi, Mindanao and showed the varieties of fishes that are offered, From
lapu-lapu to yellowfins. They are freshly harvested from the seas of Mindanao and are sold by
the locals in the markets of Tawi-tawi. The Canadian youtuber was praised for being able to
expose and appreciate the simple things that these places have to offer. He did not only show his
viewers the things that Mindanao has to offer, but he was also able to experience it. He wore the
traditional clothes of Muslims, went to a Mosque, and told his viewer about its history and
origin.
The video showed how foreign people enjoys and appreciates the beauty of the
Philippines. They appreciate now only those are highly recognized and famous things like the
Boracay and such but also those unrecognized places and traditions. These unseen spots and
traditions were given the exposure of someone who was not even from the country. They do not
care about the negative images and unpleasant rumors about a certain place. Because to criticize
something, we must first have the ability to experience it. The video only shows that sometimes
the unrecognized are the ones who are able to offer more and shows more beauty.
