× For example, we have a trip last time in a beach, so I can now share it in my social media where others can also enjoy but the view too.
✓ For example, we had a trip to a beach last time, so I can now share it on my social media where others can also enjoy the view.
The original sentence mixes present tense 'have' with a past time expression 'last time'. Use past tense 'had' for a completed past event. Also use correct prepositions: 'to a beach' (direction) and 'on my social media' (platform). Remove 'but' which is incorrect here and replace with 'the' before 'view' for clarity.
× The natural landscape is a relax is so relaxing and it's easy on the eyes which help me relax after the busy day.
✓ The natural landscape is very relaxing and easy on the eyes, which helps me relax after a busy day.
The original has a repeated phrase 'is a relax is so relaxing' causing redundancy and incorrect noun use. Replace with adjective 'relaxing'. Also ensure subject-verb agreement: 'which helps' refers to 'landscape' (singular), and use 'a busy day' rather than 'the busy day' unless a specific day is meant.
× Umm Philippines has lot to offer.
✓ Umm, the Philippines has a lot to offer.
Use the definite article 'the' with country name 'Philippines'. Also include the quantifier 'a' with 'lot' to form 'a lot'. A comma after 'Umm' improves fluency.
× Philippines has its mountains, its seas, beaches and.
✓ The Philippines has mountains, seas, and beaches.
Add the definite article 'the' before 'Philippines' and remove redundant possessive 'its' to avoid repetition. Finish the list properly: 'mountains, seas, and beaches.' Remove the trailing 'and.'
