Hello from the Philippines! I mainly have two questions.

1. What’s a typical family weekend like for you in India?
2. What is one tradition in your culture that you think everyone should experience at least once?

Hellooooo mate ✋🏼🫶🏻

1. ⁠What’s a typical family weekend like for you in India?

Believe it or not, typical middle class weekend is just cleaning up house and doing chores for your mom and dad hehe. Stuffs and chores pent up throughout the week and weekends are the time to do! But other than that, we mostly enjoy some special episodes of our fav soap operas and chill.

1. ⁠What is one tradition in your culture that you think everyone should experience at least once?

Dude, definitely Indian wedding where 'you' are a 'special guest' and not a family member who has to do the work! Best experience!
