Samu't-Sari

Samu't-Sari is a Filipino word which means "Potpourri." Or "a little bit of this, a little bit of that." A word which aptly describes the Filipinos penchant for little odds and ends, bric-a-bracs, and souveniers. In this case, let me use the word to give you a general overview of the Philippines.
