I'm A Filipino-American Visiting the Philippines This Summer (Please Read)

I DON'T KNOW MUCH TAGALOG, SO PLEASE ANSWER IN ENGLISH. MY DAD WOULDN'T LET MY MOM TEACH ME THE LANGUAGE LMFAO

Hey everyone. I'm a Filipino-American and this summer I'm going to the Philippines with a few of my white friends. We're planning on really immersing ourselves in the culture and social scene. We'll be visting various cities and beaches. It's going to be a final, coming of age trip before we all head off to different states for first year college. We're definitely hyped up about hitting up some clubs, but how's the scene in the Philippines? Also, is it considered weird or invasive to approach random girls at malls (Rockwell or Eastwood, especially)?

it is sad that your dad would deprive you of your mom's culture and language.

In Manila or anywhere in Philippines, it is invasive to some degree for you guys to approach random girls at malls. Majority of filipinas will not welcome your action to approach them. But try your luck, do not let me stop you, you might hit the jackpot. You might have more luck in the clubs though. As the people in clubs expect some interaction with other people.

Just be safe. Don't be stupid and go walking along streets in night time on your own.
