Lornadahl says she took @Lecquiem's advice & watched Nat Geo's "Meet the Natives". It's great to hear the Tanna tri

they find it unusual that some people had to sleep in the streets.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:27PM

says

They said in Tanna, everybody has a home. If they're building one, everyone would be happy to help out.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:29PM

says

Then, they were surprised at the amount of care the English people give to their pets.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:29PM

says

That they bring their dogs for grooming and all. They were like, "They don't eat the animals here,".

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:30PM

says

THAT'S A VERY PROMISING THING TO THINK ABOUT.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:31PM

says

One guy told their English host: Maybe you should take care of your people (like the homeless ones) like the way you take care of your pets

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:31PM

says

weird no? We think we're "superior" but when you look at it, di rin. I like that idea that no one's homeless in their place, whereas sa city

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:31PM

says

the idea is money = houses, no money = homeless.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:32PM

says

In anthropology talaga, it's wrong to assume that one culture is superior from another.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:32PM

They also find it unusual that a man would dress up like a woman. Tranny pala!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:33PM

They also find clubbing pointless.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:33PM

says

They say in their tribal dancing, the men and women have their own place.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:34PM

says

I'm with them about clubbing

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:34PM

says

Ritual dancing kasi yung kanila eh.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:35PM

says

In the western cities, it's all about relaxation or possibly trying to get laid.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:36PM

says

if you look at it on the get laid part, clubbing can equate ritual dancing in a sense that it's about how to catch a potential mate

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:36PM

says

Anyway, the weird part is that they believe Price Phillip is from Tanna. That it's about time He comes back to his homeland.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:36PM

says

or something like that.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:36PM

says

True, saber_kite. The thing is, urban people want to forget their affairs the soonest time possible.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:37PM

says

Or some of them.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:37PM

says

^Prince Phillip.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:39PM

says

Eto pa, they were so impressed with KFC. They find it better than the ones they have back home.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:40PM

says

I think KFC per country differs

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:40PM

says

AHAHAHA I really don't think of clubbing that way. I'm the one who sits in a corner, soaking up all the music, drinking my life away!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:41PM

says

England's KFC has pork and beans!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:41PM

says

And coleslaw!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:41PM

says

Similar to McDo India's curry!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:43PM

says

haha naalala ko yung "Top 5 American fast food items you can't get in America"

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:43PM

asks

Ketsana, didn't you groove along to music the last time we went to saGuijo?

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:43PM

says

Kunsabagay, saGuijo is NOT a club.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:44PM

says

I did. But that's different! I was thinking like Absinth or Temple. God, I'm THAT outdated. I suck.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:44PM

says

Oh, I remember, they find it strange that their black host is married to a white woman.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:44PM

says

maybe one of these days, if I get dragged (somehow) to a club, I'll let my inhibitions go and just dance.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:44PM

says

They asked, "You're a black guy. Did you marry a white woman because she's a great cook?"

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:44PM

says

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:45PM

says

You better do, saber_kite!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:45PM

says

saber_kite: Go, go, go!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:46PM

says

hindi ko kasi type yung mga lugar na yan eh. tapos I don't think i look good when i dance

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:46PM

says

pero once in a while, i dance by myself sa room

sarap kaya

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:46PM

says

Exactly!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:46PM

says

Lornadahl: HAHA who wouldn't want to be married to a good cook!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:46PM

says

I got injured out of that high!

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:48PM

says

OK lang to go dancing like there's no tomorrow, but yeah, don't do it while you're drunk or high! But that's kinda fun actually.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:49PM

says

In my case, my muscles were not used to strenuous dancing like I did. It's been ages since I've danced like mad.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:49PM

says

Hence, bumigay.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:50PM

says

I don't drink and I only get high with sugar wahahaha. I turn cartwheels when I have too much sugar.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:50PM

says

Guys, try to catch next week's episode ha. It airs on Nat Geo at 23:00.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:50PM

says

oooo, that's my problem too. I know I have weak knees, though I walk a lot and used to be active in sports.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:50PM

says

they're staying in a castle before tonight's episode ended.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:51PM

says

My knees & feet hurt all the time now, too.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:51PM

says

They were happy to see that Prince Phillip visited the castle and they feel they're getting nearer to their aim to take him back home.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:53PM

Beelzebabe

says

Lornadahl Hey, thanks for sharing the schedule. My dad would love to see the documentary.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:54PM

says

No biggie.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:57PM

says

Check it out here.

Dec 20, 2009 - 04:58PM

says

One group pala went to the US. So the group I watched is the other one.

Dec 21, 2009 - 01:45AM

says

Oh, they had different hosts: working class, middle class and upper class. I missed the working class.

Dec 21, 2009 - 01:45AM

says

I missed the working class episode, I mean.

Dec 21, 2009 - 01:46AM

says

They did car wash and one of them compared the chore to one's well-being. Doctor pala siya sa tribe nila.

Dec 21, 2009 - 03:02AM

☼ Lakapati ☼

says

I should watch that
