The country is a melting pot of cultures which is why the experience of living in the Philippines is diverse and very fulfilling. Vibrant colors from the rich culture, rich sounds from the varied experiences, delectable dishes borne out of a melting pot of races, among the many little sensual excitements the country has to offer. When one mentions the Philippines a few of the things which one thinks about are the Filipino food, the Philippine beaches, and the warm Filipino people. All of which exceptionally stands out.
Living in the Philippines mean having to be surrounded by warm and hospitable people. Filipinos are hospitable by nature because they take pride and honor at treating other people with enthusiasm. This rapport with guests is borne out of the fact that Filipinos treat everyone as if they are part of one's extended family.
The Philippines is also best known for their gusto when it comes to eating. The Filipinos have a passionate love affair with food. Everywhere you turn, you will see food in this country. Be it restaurants, fast-food chains, or even street vendors, in the Philippines you are never far from food. This desire to eat, coupled with the hospitality of the people is what makes the phrase “KAIN TAYO” (Let's eat!) very popular in the repertoire of the Pinoy.
