Most important book to read; to start to understand us!,
By Filipina Cupid "Jean" (Cebu, Hong Kong, Manila, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Culture Smart! Philippines: A Quick Guide to Customs & Etiquette (Paperback)
This is in many ways an update to "Culture Shock Philippines." It is not a travel guide but does describe a number of good places to visit. It gives a good historical overview, then spends much of it's 168 pages explaining daily life, cultural issues, family values and our focus on the family.It explains common attitudes toward foreigners, and how a foreigner can make a good impression. It includes an excellent discussion about Religion and our many Christian festivals. Descriptions of common housing, shopping, entertaining, family celebrations, and a whole chaper on traveling in The Philippines. I recommend this as the most important book to read to start to understand us. Jean @^:^@ |
