What's your home country known for? I was born and raise in the Philippines and whenever there are foreigners visiting, they always complement our being hospitable. Our food has also been popular for some and even our cultures through the existence of festival events has been embraced by more and more people. It's just that, despite our country can offer so much, our government is still considered as one of the most corrupt countries in the world. It's been an ongoing issue for so many years, and we can't do anything about it because the Filipinos are very much forgiving.

Unless you live in a country for a while you have no idea what it's like. I could never discribe the U.S. because it's complicated. Politics is a joke. The country has it's problems, but if I had to discribe it in one word, it's diverse. It's a melting pot of all types and blends. It's hard to say what's 'Americian'.

That's what I felt also when I went there. It's a mix of people, culture, and beliefs that's why I always go home too tired. Though I experience racism in some huge cities in the US, it's still manageable. I can handle it in a manner that I don't get myself into trouble.

The Republic of Panama where I was born is famous for the Panama Canal, some famous musicians and sports stars.

What is Scotland famous for? Well quite a lot given our tiny population. John Logie Baird - sort of invented TV Alexander Graham Bell - telephone, maybe if he hadn't come along when he did I wouldn't be on a cell phone on here. Alexander Fleming- discovered penicillin. The Loch Ness Monster Whisky Buckfast Tart an, Kilts and Bagpipes Deep fried Mars bar, yum. Just cover it in batter and deep fry. Amazingly the chocolate doesn't melt like you think it would. Rober Burns, he wrote the new year song everyone sings and holds hands for, Auld Lang Syne GLASGOW RANGERS I could go on all night, Scotland the Brave.
