my head hurts
Filipinos are usually VERY nice people. My family, and every otehr Filipino family I’ve met was very nice and loving. They love to jokes around and especially eat food
You have to remember to be respectful though, Filipinos are all about respect for your elders. Make sure to try new foods when your new family asks you to [ Don't worry, there's not TOO many disgusting filipino foods. Alot are really tasty!]
Also, as your cousin;s wife if she thinks it appropriate to use respectful names.
Such as Ate [ ah-te ] Which means older female cousin/sister
Kuya [ Koo- ya] older male cousin/brother
Lolo [low-low] grandfather
Lola [ low-la] grandmother
Tita [Tee-ta] Aunt
Tito [ Tee-toe] Uncle
Have fun !
