Are you sure it's 'Culture Clash' ? :Erm:

There is a really good book called 'Culture Shock! Philippines', could that be the one your thinking of?

That one's available from Amazon:-
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=culture+shock+philippines&tag=googhydr-21&index=stripbooks&hvadid=8235865849&ref=pd_sl_2ochymjjkh_b

There are quite a few similar books available. A quick search should pull them up for you.

Absolutely !!!

Get writing lastlid.

We came to UK in 2002 and my wife still doesn't quite get it sometimes.
She often says things like 'we don't do that in Philippines'.
Which is odd really because she hasn't lived in Pinas since 1984.

They do say "you can take the girl out of the Philippines, but you can't take the Philippines out of the girl." Which is just so very true!!

'we don't do that in Philippines'.


I have heard that so many times over the last few months.... :D
