A little piece of home
Filipino Culture
Filipino culture is made up of so many little things that can be hard to explain until you’ve lived them. It’s the way we welcome people like family, the celebrations that somehow always involve food, the respect we show our elders, the expressions we grew up hearing, and all those little things that just make you say, “That’s so Filipino!”
I grew up with many of these traditions without really thinking about them—they were simply part of everyday life. But living away from the Philippines has made me appreciate them in a whole different way.
This is where I’ll share more of that side of the Philippines—the traditions, celebrations, everyday life, places, language, and little pieces of Filipino culture that remind me of home.
Whether you grew up in the Philippines too or you’re discovering Filipino culture for the first time, welcome! I’m happy you’re here. 🇵🇭
