Worried about gifts

I have a friend at work that is going on vacation to the Philippines for two weeks together with his wife who is a nurse here. After 13 years of living here in the US he finally decide to go back to the PI. He is very excited to go back there and see his brothers and sisters and relatives but at the same time worried. Worried about the gifts to his family of what to gives to them he said they might not like what he has to give to them. We always told him not to worry about that because what ever you can give them they will be happy with it. He is like that because he doesn’t have a lot of money for all the presents and some cash for his siblings. That is why he doesn’t like to go home because he is thinking that they might want more. Still we kept telling him don’t worry just go see your family that is more important than anything else. If you give them a bar of soap they will be very happy and if you can give a dozen bars of soap they still very happy it is the same. I hope he and his wife have a safe travel and enjoy their vacation there with out worrying about anything.
