Carmina asked Mom Violy what kind of food she would like to eat for her upcoming birthday. Mom Violy said she was craving for a restaurant that serves steak and lobster. Carmina gave Mom Violy a list of restaurants for her to decide with a link of the websites for her to see which one look something she would like to try. One week before Mom Violy's birthday she made her final choice where she would like to try Mamou . Carmina had picked up Mom Violy at her home before heading to Gateway 2 located in Cubao, Quezon City. Mamou is located ground floor inside Gateway 2. Upon entering the person asked if we had any reservations however, they do except walk as well was seated at the table of our choice. The person had handed us the menu. Beverages Menu Bread and butter were served after we had placed our order. Our appetizer was the Mamou's Bacon Steak. Mom Violy decided to order her lobster tail with rice. Carmina had ordered Beer Battered Fish and Malt Vinegar with choice of pot
Carmina’s observation from able to travel and stay in the United States for two months.
There are people who don’t wear a face mask when there are a lot of people in their homes.
Not like living in the Philippines we wear a face mask going downstairs.
We have families coming over from different homes we are all required to wear a face mask.
Families from the outside don’t eat at our homes they prefer to have it take out cooked by Manang V.
Shopping:
Carmina notice even if there are sign on the doors no face mask no entry. I sometimes see people shop with no face mask they may have it inside their pocket and only wear it upon entering the store.
Sometimes it is not only customers fault I’ve seen employees who are also not wearing one when it is required in some area.
Not like in the Philippines we are required to wear one at all times and stores check our temperature through our palm of the hands or forehead.
Restaurant:
Customers prefer outdoor dining or restaurants that has doors wide open to dine inside the United States.
In the Philippines they also cater people who want to dine outside or inside but our doors are not fully open more closed with air conditioner on.
Driving/riding:
When Carmina is riding with her friend’s car we always have the windows wide open the air is circulation and having our face mask on.
Yes, sometimes we remove it knowing we both have been vaccinated.
Carmina has friends of Mom Violy riding with us the windows are slightly open and have air conditioner on. Carmina has a hard time driving with a face mask but her passenger have their face mask on.
How we live based on how we’re trained in the Philippines adapts us by bringing it along when we do travel.
What I notice the rubbing alcohol in the States is too strong and prefer the brands we use in the Philippines.
Most people carry the gel type or wipes for their hands in the United States.
Outdoor Parks:
After seeing all areas in my vacation some wear face mask outdoors or don’t wear one when not many people are surrounded with them.
They put their face mask on when too many people are surrounded.
Carmina can now understand when she see people exercising it is really difficult to wear a face mask hiking up a hill or just walking outside.
I’ve tried and experienced it when I was with Joanie doing our hiking. I had a hard time breathing and catching my air.
I had to remove it and wear it when I see strangers coming by.
We need to experience it before we talk about it when you’re there. I was also the type of person who questioned Mary Ann while she was in Germany why she had no face mask.
Based on my own experience I can now relate to all my friends who have post in their social media.
Carmina no longer question her friends allow them to do it on their own.
We need to experience it before we begin to question what others are doing to understand the situation.
