      Hey, Lucy, we are here in London I've loved watching your vlog..I can see you love my country..I hope we can meet when we come for a visit in Manila.We are both chef working in London. It's true everything that you've said about changing your habits because you started adapting our culture. Like me here in the UK I need to adopt some of the lifestyles like doing shopping and plus the weather here is terrible..

    My wife is a Filipina - we live in the Philippines - and I have learned that to deny a Filipina her daily ration of rice unleashes a monster. We were in France a few years ago and she went without for half a day so my mission was to seek out some rice before I suffered the consequences.

    In the Philippines you can go out with a wet hair. When my first time here in UK, i went out with a wet hair and my churchmate asked me if it is raining outside 😂😂😂. I didn't know that you needed to blow dry your hair before you go out or else you'll get cold.

      Having wet hair is rude if ur gonna ride public transportation, if its raining then having wet hair in a public transpo vehicle is unarguable.
      And having a wet undone hair is also unprofessional if ur attending a corporate matter like a job interview, it will seem that u dont care enough to tidy urself up to face the interviewer and they will think ur not taking the day seriously(the interview that is).

I didn't realize until then how fast you have to be and still be organized because scanning your items doesn't really give you that much time. You not only need to pack fast but also have your cash ready as well. You have to be done by the time they give you your change or risk having the next person wait so your items don't get mixed up.

    This is funny. I remember when I went to the US and did my grocery and I was waiting for someone to place them in the bag, that was shocking for me. Also, my very first time I checked in a hotel and nobody assisted me to bring my luggage to my room, that was crazy and I asked if there was anyone who can assist me and the receptionist said you can use the trolley back there (WTF) hahaha. I just landed from Jakarta and stayed in a 5-star hotel and there are bell boys to assist you to carry the luggage. I thought why does Pinoy want to go live in the US? And these were just a few things I laugh at now when I look back. Why live in the US when you can be in Asia and have maids ( that is if you can afford it and find one) This video is so true, the different things we do in our own country and the places we choose to live.

    I laughed when you said about singing and dancing in public because when I first arrived in England and the few years after my manager would sometimes tell me, "Ester, your leaking" because I didn't realise that I was humming or singing. I found it difficult and saddening that there are no music blaring in offices, public transport and anywhere else. That's why I only know very few songs from the 90s up to present but recently discovered Wish 107.5 and started listening to songs again more regularly. I must say, there had been times when music comes on in some public establishments here in England and my children would get embarrassed when I suddenly would sing and dance to the music. They tell me "mum, stop it. You're weird"

      That’s one thing I never liked in the Philippines. I’m Pinoy who has lived in the states for 20+ years and if there’s one thing I cannot stand in the Philippines growing up there was the persistent music everywhere. I love music. I come from a very musical family with family members playing guitar, piano and the violin. I am also an audiophile but the Philippines takes it to an extreme level. A popular Japanese vlogger pointed this out on his vlog, too. But it’s just that there’s too much music everywhere, all day and all night, as if people seem to be afraid of quietness, of being still or being alone with ones thoughts.

    This is so true and I experienced those habits when I was sent by my company before to work in Glasgow way back 2014 and that’s 8 months away from my family from April to November. The sandwich and toast is very common during lunch and I love Greggs. The Indian food besides the Frasers Suites Glasgow is my go to place if I want to eat rice and curry, and lastly the one I adjusted the most is when I buy groceries at tesco and marks, I need to pack my own groceries and it’s weird at first but i’m kinda used to it after a month and I even bring my own bag for my groceries. I miss UK and most specially Glasgow. I will surely go back with my family soon 😀 I love how you summarized it and made me think all of it are true..

    EDIT: I stand corrected. The Philippines is north of the equator. Idk which latitude it is closer cause there are different kinds of maps I see on the internet with varrying accuracy of locations between lines. I think we're closer to the equator more than the Tropic of Capricorn. But anyway, it's still hotter here than in the UK.

Tell Mike and Nelly where to get what so they'd also enjoy the ease of knowing where to get whatever. But you know what I generally think about the changes that you say are happening to you? One word: "Filipinized". You guys are turning into one of us! And by the way, Lucy, you don't need to be tan. Your skin color is fine. A Disney princess has to have a pinkish complexion so don't fight it. You should know this already being here for so long: Filipinos generally don't care too much for skin color. That's because we're a diverse race and that means we sport different shades of skin. And what's important to us is the attitude of people. Kindness and cheerfulness, as you know, begets the same. You even greet kids on the street. So you're very welcome in the country. Stay and stay as you are. Everybody loves you. You like our scenic spots, our food, and the people as a whole. So why would we drive you away? Haven't heard you make comments that sound like what Hollywood actress Claire Danes did long ago after visiting Manila (making herself a "persona non grata" here) so there's no reason to dislike you.
