Even tough some Spanish influence is still present in the Philippines, I understand that most of it has been erased, and is not visible in the daily life.
But Catholicism is still overwhelmingly the most popular religion.
Why has Catholicism become such a big part of society in the Philippines, but not other Spanish traditions?

Don't say Rosetta stone, because not only is it expensive (to me) but I heard that it isn't good for learning languages. I also looked at Langocity, but found a lot of bad reviews on it. So what is the best Tagalog learning software?

Traveler, Bud Brown is traveling the Philippine islands and interacting with the local people.  In this video he tastes common fruits of the Philippines but very new to him.

For a month. Mentawai is also near Sumatra which appears to have fantastic waves, too.
