Mamang Sorbetero - Paradise Philippine children's Super Hero
Dirty Ice cream. We've always called it that, and regardless of how stern the warnings from our parents, we can't help ourselves but have some whenever we see a cart. Mamang Sorbetero can be found roaming streets all over the Philippines. The hero of little children, he provides instant relief from the harsh, glaring rays of the sun. With Mamang Sorbetero, you don't need to look far or to go the grocery stores to buy ice cream. Yes, I am also an avid fan of Mamang Sorbetero since I was a kid and until now I still reminisce the moments when I'm still in the Paradise Philippines. During my childhood phase when we hear the tinkle of Mamang Sorbetero's bell, we (me, my cousins and our playmates) are all in a hurry to convince our parents to buy us this breezy sweet ice cream. And we make this chilly ice cream as a partner of bread (or what we call "Monay"), we put it inside the bread and spread it while we were in a mouth-watering manner.

Clean Up the Philippines
A national environmental campaign that encourages communities around the Philippines to clean up, fix up and conserve their environment through Clean Up the Philippines as part of the Clean Up the World Membership program.
Fact
Philippine People (Filipino) has a little courtesy goes a long way. Filipinos are a very friendly and hospitable people, sometimes even to a fault. Take the time to smile and say “thank you”, and you’ll receive much better responses. You will receive an even better response if you throw in a little Tagalog, such as “salamat”, which means “thank you”. When talking to the people older than you in Filipino, it is greatly appreciated to include “po” in your sentences such as “salamat po”. In the countryside and in some urban homes, footwear is removed when entering a home, though they may make an exception for foreigners. The key is to look around before entering any home. If you see footwear just outside the door, more than likely the family’s practice is to remove footwear before entering. If you wear socks, you don’t have to remove them. Although if you don’t remove them they will be very dirty. - Sikat ang Pinoy
