Pakikisama (from paki “please” + sama “to go Pakikisama (from paki “please” + sama “to go along”): companionship or going along with others.⁠ ⁠ Maintaining smooth relationships and group harmony is at the heart of Filipino culture. Workplaces in the Philippines often feel like extended families, where cooperation and camaraderie drive productivity. ⁠ ⁠ Colleagues go out of their way to help one another, and leaders are expected to be approachable and supportive.⁠ ⁠ To build trust, take time to get to know people personally. A friendly greeting, remembering personal or professional details, or sharing a coffee break goes a long way. Filipinos appreciate genuine warmth and are quick to reciprocate with loyalty and enthusiasm. Participating in informal team activities or joining small celebrations signals respect and strengthens connections. ⁠ ⁠ While pakikisama encourages collaboration and goodwill, it can sometimes prioritize group harmony over blunt honesty. So, remember to be mindful of relationship dynamics.⁠ ⁠ Do you want to work more effectively with your Filipino colleagues? We have four more tips waiting for you at the link in bio. 🇵🇭⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #philippines #filipinoculture #pakikisama #filipinoworkplace #workingacrosscultures #crossculturalcommunication #crosscultural #culturalintelligence #culturalawareness #culturalcompetence #culturematters #interculturalcommunication #intercultural #globalworkplace #globalteams #internationalbusiness #globalleadership #leadershipacrosscultures #workplaceculture #businessculture #asiancultures #globalcollaboration #diversityandinclusion #inclusionmatters #learnaboutculture #culturallearning #expats #culturaltips #culturalinsights #culturalmixology
Chag Sameach to those celebrating Passover tonight Chag Sameach to those celebrating Passover tonight!⁠ ⁠ At many Seders, the evening begins with a moment of curiosity: the Four Questions.⁠ ⁠ Traditionally, the youngest person at the table asks them, starting with Ma Nishtana: “Why is this night different from all other nights?” It’s a simple question that opens the door to the entire Passover story: a journey from slavery to freedom.⁠ ⁠ We really appreciate that a central part of the tradition is… asking questions. Curiosity isn’t just welcomed, it’s built into the ritual.⁠ ⁠ If you’re feeling curious yourself, we put together a short Passover quiz. You might know more than you think. 😉 Find it at the link in bio.⁠ ⁠ Wishing everyone celebrating a meaningful and joyful holiday.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #passover #pesach #chagsameach #pesachsameach #passover2026 #jewishheritage #jewishculture #jewishtraditions #judaism #jewishholidays #seder #sedernight #sedertable #haggadah #manishtana #fourquestions #exodusstory #freedomstory #traditionandculture #culturaltraditions #culturematters #culturalawareness #crosscultural #globalcultures #diversityandinclusion #learnaboutculture #holidaytraditions #didyouknow #passoverquiz #learnsomethingnew

Ramadan Mubarak! 🌙⁠ ⁠ In 2026, Ramadan bega Ramadan Mubarak! 🌙⁠ ⁠ In 2026, Ramadan began on the evening of February 17th and ends on March 19th.

Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday! 🏈⁠ ⁠ It’s t Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday! 🏈⁠ ⁠ It’s the culmination of a season where 32 teams (16 in the American Football Conference or AFC and 16 in the National Football Conference or NFC) have played 17 games each.⁠ ⁠ We’ll help you with the math. That’s 272 games!⁠ ⁠ American football is a complex game that even many Americans would struggle to explain. We’re here to break it down for you though. Because if #culturematters, then understanding American football matters too.⁠ ⁠ At the link in bio, you can find out all about the coin toss, who does what, how long the game actually takes, and even where else in the world you can find "American" football.⁠ ⁠ PS. Want to "huddle around" for a fun fact? 😉⁠ ⁠ The huddle, where football players gather closely together to discuss strategy, started with the Gallaudet University football team in the late 19th century. (Gallaudet University is a university for the deaf and hard of hearing located in Washington, D.C.) The team huddled to prevent the opposing team from seeing their sign language signals and gaining a tactical advantage. This innovation eventually spread to other football teams, and today, the huddle is a standard part of the game!⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #superbowl #superbowlsunday #superbowl2026 #americanfootball #nfl #footballfans #footballculture #footballhistory #americanfootballculture #usculture #culture #culturalmixology #culturalawareness #culturaldiversity #expatliving #expatlife #globalcitizen #tck #diversityandinclusion #worldculture #sportsfans #sportstraditions #expatwoman #whereintheworld #globetrotting #travelculture #traveldiary #understandingculture #cultureconnection
Kölle Alaaf! (Cologne above all else!) 🎉⁠ ⁠ Carnival season is gearing up in Cologne, and the city is about to shift into full Fastelovend mode. This year, the Kölsche Karneval runs from February 12th to 17th, transforming Germany’s fourth-largest city into a kaleidoscope of color, costumes, and tradition.⁠ ⁠ While Carnival technically begins each year on 11.11 at 11:11 AM, the real energy builds as the “fifth season” approaches its famous six-day whirlwind, stretching from Weiberfastnacht (Fat Thursday) all the way through Aschermittwoch (Ash Wednesday). Locals lovingly call these the “crazy days,” and they earn the title.⁠ ⁠ And of course, no celebration is complete without Krapfen, the jelly-filled pastries that seem to disappear faster than you can say “Alaaf!”⁠ ⁠ If you’re curious about the history, quirks, and uniquely Kölsch traditions behind it all, you’ll find 11 fun facts waiting for you at the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ Carnival is coming… and Cologne is getting ready.⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #culture #travel #culturematters #culturalmixology #culturalawareness #culturaldiversity #cologne #koln #köllealaaf #karneval #fastelovend #germany #germantraditions #carnivalseason #carnivalculture #aroundtheworld #culturaldifferences #globalcitizen #expats #expatlife #expatliving #tck #diversityandinclusion #wanderlusting #globetrotting #worldtravel #urbanexplorer #traveldiary #travelcommunity #whereintheworld

Today is World Snow Day and we know that somewhere Today is World Snow Day and we know that somewhere out there the flakes are already falling! Snow has a way of stirring up emotions and shaping language in ways that say a lot about culture.⁠ ⁠ In literature, snow often symbolizes danger or isolation. Yet plenty of expressions flip the script and make cold weather feel warm and affectionate. Think of how calling someone a little snowflake can sound tender, or how a cold drink on a hot day suddenly feels inviting. At the same time, phrases like ice queen or cold feet can create emotional distance.⁠ It all depends on where we are, what we have lived, and how language reflects our experiences.⁠ ⁠ We put together a look at how different cultures talk about snow, which languages have collected the most words for it, and a few global winter activities that bring people together. Explore it all via the link in bio. ❄️⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #winter #snow #snowflakes #coldweather #winterculture #skiing #hygge #friluftsliv #inuit #vocabulary #learningthroughplay #expatlife #expats #tck #expatliving #movingabroad #whereintheworld #aroundtheworld #culture #culturematters #culturalmixology #culturalawareness #culturaldiversity #culturaldifferences #globalcommunity #travel #travelculture #worldtraditions #diversity #inclusion
