Mabuhay!
The Philippines is among the many scenic places in Asia. Having been able to preserve a lot of its natural gifts, the country has been a hotspot for foreign travel and even business. Philippines is well known for its tropical climate, skirts of white sand beaches, lush forests, taste bud tickling variety of fruits, palatable dishes and beautiful people.Â
Pinoy is a term coined be Fil-Americans in the early 1920's which was later adopted by the Philippines as slang for Filipino.
One Pinoy trademark is the accommodation that they offer. People in the Philippines have been known for their world-class hospitality. Rich or poor, no matter what race, Filipinos readily embrace each and every visitor as if they were family.
A melting pot of different races, not only are Filipinos rich in culture, but their rich heritage borne the most beautiful of people. Armed with wit, talent and creativity, they have scattered themselves, showing the world that Filipinos are indeed the best!Â
