Living in foreign become challenges from everyone. One of challenges is about food. Each country has different food and also different the taste. Being a visitor of country, we have to try it. It was same with me. During stay at Philippine, I try some foods.

It is tofu with sauce. It contains white tofu with dressing sauces. The sauces were very variants. Those are strawberry and grape. The price was cheap. It was delicious. It makes our body warm. It could be found in every where actually in the tourism place. I bought it at Mine Vie Park.
It is ice cream. It looks like same with common ice cream. Actually it has little different. The different is the flavor. The taste of ice cream is strawberry. It is local strawberry. But it was exported to foreign. It could be found in Strawberry Farm. It was really cheap. It is only 30 pesos.


It was a street food. It could be found in along street. It made from fish and chicken. It should be frying to serve it. It can mix with vinegar sauce if we ate it. I and other friends bought it when went out from school. Our buddies suggested us to try it. A glass of it only 20 pesos. 

Burnham Park



Baguio is a city in Philippine that position in a top mountain. Here, I stayed during join to Sea Teacher Program. I lived in University of the Cordilleras’ hotel. Actually it did not commercial hotel. Because it was for practicing students of UC, that who take hotel and tourism faculty.  UC’s hotel is close to with public area that easy to reach. One of them is Burnham Park. We can reach it by walking. It is wide area. There were many facilities that available. It is like, play ground, jogging spot, and many benches for visitor to take rest. There is a lake in middle of park. The visitor could rent kinds of boat to walk around in this lake. Moreover in other side, many bicycles were ready to rent with cheap cost. Then across of this park, there is a Rizal Park. A monument was build here. It built to honor a hero that contributed for Philippine in the past. He is Rizal. Because of that this park called Rizal Park. I and other friends went here together with our buddies. They accompanied and guided us during walk around this park. We took pictures as documentation.
