The Philippines has humid weather, so you should wear something comfortable and breathable such as linen or cotton polo.

Also, wear light colors like white or nude to appear neat and decent. If you don’t have a polo, a plain shirt will suffice.

More importantly, avoid wearing shorts or jogging pants if you don’t want to look sloppy or unpresentable. Wear well-fitted denim jeans instead. In terms of shoes, I recommend wearing loafers or sneakers.

Remember, less is more. With a minimalist look, you will look elegant without much effort.

Filipinos are some of the most positive, generous, loyal, resilient, and family oriented people in the world.

As a Filipino, I can attest to this. We don’t run out of problems, but we try to remain happy and hopeful because we love life.

But, we aren’t all sunshines and rainbows. Humans as we are, we also experience sadness and negativity, especially when life gets too overwhelming.

Despite this, we continue to rise because of our strong family ties. Our families are one of our most important sources of strength in dealing with life’s challenges.

We Filipinos may not be as wealthy as other races, but we are admired by many foreign cultures because we live by our values – values that inspire the world to be better.
