I am from Zamboanga City also known as Asia’s Latin City. You can expect to be received with open arms and hospitable people. Our language is Chavacano and it is a Spanish creole. Our city is a melting pot of Christian and Muslim cultures which creates beautiful and colorful blend of different foods, architecture and traditional clothing unique to our city.

Zamboanga City is a very diverse city. Everyone respects every religion, race and gender. My city is “Asia’s Latin City” because of the unique culture influenced by Spanish during their colonization period. It is evident on the city’s local dialect called “Chavacano. The food and the way of living was also changed.
