If you're in the Philippines (like you actually live here), where do you go for fun?

I'd love to go to beaches and drink cocktails while sunbathing again.
But I hate crowded places and am saving up for long breaks when gas price hike is no longer a problem.

There also aren't fun libraries or parks close by. So just mostly malls.

This is me admitting I need a vacation. Badly. Lol.

I do not live there.

But years ago, on another site, a woman from the Philippines asked me, and others, if we would travel there from the U.S. to do housecleaning for her.

I guess that would be one way you could have fun without spending money on fuel!

@DrWatson I'm sorry to hear that. But I hope you don't make that person your only reference on the kind of people Filipinos are.

Like in any place, some kid about laziness. Some may even mean it.

But for the most part, I would describe Filipinos as resilient and hardworking. Unfortunately, that doesn't always mean well for us because we tend to tolerate more even if when we are well aware we deserve better. I'm talking about government now.

In retrospect, I think she was confusing "homework help" with "housework help." 😃

But of course I would not make any generalizations based on one person.🙂
