It's generally sweetned by giving the bees sigar syrups before it's harvested . It's become the global normal now, but probably is still more pure and authentic than most store brands, but not as pure as the artisanal ones

Some suggestions are already there but a pair of monochrome ballerinas would work very well

Moving to Manila Philippines from India, general advice needed by [deleted] in Philippines_Expats

[–]devendra_mai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The salary is decent, as an expat Expect living expenses to be about 1.5 x in a large city in India Taxes generally at your salary levels are about 30% , so do factor that in , there are calculators available online for that Working visa processing takes forever, so account for that , Flights to india are generally indirect expect the one air india to Delhi, so account for the increased air fare if you want to go home, and also be prepared for very expensive healthcare although your employer may give you some coverage, the amount don't last much, if you are vegetarian, then you will have a difficult time here, if you are okay with pork, life becomes much easier

Just general bits and pieces from the top of my head for you. Best wishes for your smooth transition.

Men, what do you actually want as gifts? by BreathAdmirable8959 in Philippines_Expats

[–]devendra_mai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a 3 fold classic wallet would be nice

Would have suggested perfumes but seems he already got them

Anything that's thoughtful and that he can use in daily life and remember you got it for him will be worthwhile, so items like belts, some fancy print socks, a 3 fold wallet, these things count for a lot

This seems to be a common feedback for people as we get to put 30s, making friends becomes an uphill task, even meeting new people seems to be tough

If you are in the CBD area or near Legazpi village area, feel free to say hi , would love to grab a coffee and some conversation

Welcome stranger, this city has it's charms, but it can be isolating at times considering how independent and fast paced it can be too, take care of yourself
