Re: Teamwork

Teamwork is indeed a good thing than working alone, because it can make you accomplish a lot more because more people are helping you in your task.

Re: Nomadic Lifestyle

No, I don't think I would want a nomadic lifestyle, I also prefer to be settled and live in the same place and not roam around. I want to settle in one country.

Re: Movies with English subtitles

I like watching movies with subtitles because it helps me in understanding the hard to hear dialogues that are whispered or said in an incoherent way.

Re: The karaoke is banned by 9 pm

Well if it's too loud then I guess it's justified, you really don't want to wake up the neighbors in the middle of the night. That would be considered inconsiderate.

Re: Opinions on Rodrigo Duterte

I'm really not a fan since I don't see graft and corruption improving here in our country, and with every president that has served the country, the politics game is still corrupt.

Re: How to fight homesickness

Well, I think it's simple, just communicate with your relatives more using phone and the internet, I doubt you actually miss the place in the first place.

Re: Shipping to the Philippines

Try FedEx or the other companies mentioned, the local post office can hold your package and illegally charge you "mandatory tax", especially if the item or items are quite expensive, so you're better off using a private company for delivery.

Re: Best thing about where you are currently living?

I think the best part of where I'm currently living is the weather, there is no winter here, and the close proximity that is has towards stores for our daily needs and 24-hour convenience stores are the perks in my area.

Re: Conversational Japanese

Japan is a progressed country, but the locals speak little English, unfortunately. I think that you can get by there if you know the basic sentences that you should learn as a tourist.

Re: Pasalamat Festival

When it comes to local festivals I only know of Ati-Atihan and Santacruzan. I haven't heard of Pasasalamat yet until I read your post. Seems like it's not that popular here in Manila.
