田善妃小姐於台灣

工作

年後,轉大學任教 3
年並擔任大紀元全
球網記者與編輯至今。2008
年萌生想繼續深造之念,但在有限的存款與不想
和家人分開太久,又希望到英語系國家留學的前提下,選擇了菲律賓的第二大
城—宿霧市的聖卡洛斯大學,成為該校第一位來自台灣的留學生。
宿霧的留學經驗著實另她印象深刻,從申請學校、親訪系所,以了解入學
與註冊流程,到搭起台灣與菲律賓兩地大學的民間學術交流,這些都是新鮮的
嘗試。宿霧生活則是從申請特殊居留簽證開始到買房,凡事自己來不假手他人
的堅持也讓她深刻體驗到菲律賓政府行政手續的官僚與繁瑣。為了減少未來有
興趣的人不必要的困擾,她詳實地將其中的心路歷程紀錄下來,供讀者參照。
熱心友善的同學更是不時推薦宿霧的藍天白沙與小島景點,讓作者得以深
入這些遺世而獨立的世界,與讀者分享宿霧令人屏息的自然禮讚與質樸。
隋猶是田小姐的「書僮」,現職大學副教授,在寒暑假期間亦經常前往宿
霧伴遊兼陪讀,一同記錄下這段特殊的留學經歷。

菲律賓觀光處給讀者的一封信
Cebu
is known as the Philippines “Queen City of the
South” for
its balmy
weather, crystalline waters, pristine beaches
and palm trees.
It also
carries a rich cultural heritage way back in
1521 when the first wooden cross was planted to
mark the beginning of the Christianization of
the entire country. One can witness century old
structures, consisting of forts, churches and
houses around Cebu.
Being the
number one tourist destination in the
Philippines, Cebu also offers a lot of tourists
facilities, hotels, resorts, shopping areas,
restaurants , SPA and the like to cater to
different requirement of tourists from high–end
to backpackers.
All these
beautiful treasures are complemented with the
smiles, warmth and hospitality of the Cebuanos.
One can truly
enjoy Cebu as there is no communication barrier
in the province as long as one can speak the
English language as most of the local
population can communicate in the said language.
Cebu is now the haven of foreigners who wants to
learn English language with its excellent
facilities, learning programs and competent
instructors to ensure effective learning.
On behalf of
the Department of Tourism, we hope that this
book will encourage the reader to personally
experience the more than the usual wonders of
this destination.
Mabuhay!
