Hiroki經驗談 – Living in the Philippines

Hello I am Japanese Intern manager Hiroki

The topic for today is about how you live in the Philippines and introduce it briefly

 

  • water of the Philippines

first of all , I will talk about water . It’s possible to drink water carelessly in Japan however , you would better refraining from drinking water of a faucet in the Philippines . Literally it’s said that water of a faucet is safe though , basis regarding to water level is totally different from Japan , so if you drink the water , you would probably get poisoned . What’s more if you boil the water , it goes white haha you should make sure that you use water of water server even when it comes to brush your teeth

 

  • Food of the Philippines

next is about food of the Philippines there is a big difference between Japanese food and filipino food . Most of filipino food is quite oily and sweet . If people who haven’t gotten used to eating those kind of foods get upset stomach and there are so many venders which sell local foods at low price however , those foods are not hygienically treated so they are not recommendable . If you are really interested to challenge those foods , you try once but you have take responsibility haha I personally tried one of a famous exotic food named ballot here and next day of attempt , I got food poisoning haha please be careful haha

 

3.Beverages of the Philippines

next is about drink of the Philippines . Here in the Philippines , there is one of the famous beer named San Miguel and also Red Horse consumed by people almost every day haha both of beers sell for around 50pesos , because of their cheapness , some of people drink them every day and as as result , they big tummy haha the different thing from Japan is that they share one cup with friends and put ice into a cup . So people who are clean-conscious can’t survive here haha

Actually , atmosphere of observation in storage is not good , some of beverages are in a refrigerator eternally . I strongly recommend you to wipe dirt of a bottle of beer out you bought .

 

  • Stress caused by study

finally I will talk about what cause you feel sick the most . Probably this is from study you do intensively every day . Most of people came here for the first time . You cram studying in unfamiliar place makes you stress out unconsciously and lead you to sickness . So when you have free time , you should do what you like as much as possible such as traveling sleeping all day and so on . Studying is important but also unwinding is more important so that you expend your study more efficiently and productively .
