    Based on your lists, answer the following questions:

    1. What are the similarities among the regional practices?


    In my table, I really put categories in different regions and
    under that is what each region has, and based on my analysis,
    each region has a unique culture while yet showing a lot of
    similarities. In terms of weeding practices, northern Luzon and
    Mindanao have a lot in common, as do courtship Luzon and
    Visayas. However, the main similarity between each region is how
    they manage to keep their own culture growing and expanding.

    2. What are its uniqueness in each region?


    There are many things that are truly unique that you may witness
    in any region, especially when it comes to festivals. We can
    definitely say that every location has something to brag about.

    3. Which cultural practices can you best relate with?


    I can definitely relate to cultural cuisine because culture is
    something that is learned or socially transferred. So cuisine is
    one of the ways we demonstrate our culture.

    4. What significant learnings can you get from the cultural


    practices?
    I learned to appreciate each region's culture; I'm interested by
    how each region of the Philippines has its own distinct culture
    that we can be proud of. Some practices aren't all that great,
    but I've learnt not to judge and instead to be more interested
    in learning from it.
