I know for me, if I am in the mall and see a caucasion I make eye contact and see how they react. Alot of times I am ignored. <BR/>I do not know the answer. I enjoy meeting and talking to all peoples, Americans, Europeans and Filipinos. I do find more Filipinos are willing to talk to you then Foreigners.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06965694568419641290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233502769232126183.post-27197098435163149722008-08-19T17:46:00.000-04:002008-08-19T17:46:00.000-04:00Hi Bruce, like I said before in your previous post...Hi Bruce, like I said before in your previous post, that we are used to other foreigners coming to us, knocking on our hull, just to say hi and welcome, and most times offering help with information about the city and how to go abouts.
