I have been staying In Malta island. I expected this a certain level, I encounterd some trouble. Im struggling some calture differences. but don't worry! It's not serious, it's somewhat funny.

自然な表現

I have been staying on the island of Malta. Although I expected this to a certain extent, I have encountered some trouble. I'm struggling with some cultural differences. But don't worry! It's not serious; it's somewhat funny.

1. The correct preposition is "on" because we use "on" for islands. "Malta" should also be referred to as "the island of Malta," to be more precise.
2. Added "Although" to connect the expectation with the encounter of trouble, creating a clearer sentence structure.
3. This is a more natural expression.
4. Changed to "have encountered" to match the present perfect tense used earlier ("have been staying"), indicating an ongoing experience.
5. Corrected spelling.
6. Added an apostrophe in "I'm" to form the correct contraction of "I am."
7. Added "with" to correctly use the verb "struggling with."
8. Corrected the spelling of "calture" to "cultural."
9. Capitalized "But" because it follows a period (if you're making it a new sentence).
10. A semicolon is used to connect closely related independent clauses that are not joined by a coordinating conjunction (e.g., and, but, or).

That sounds interesting! What specific cultural differences have you encountered that are causing some amusing struggles? I hope you are doing just fine.

I have a big appetite among Japanese, but I can't finish all meal that restaurants served. I love pizza, I love pasta, but I can't. The portion of most meal in western countries at restaurant is too big for me!Besides, people tend to drink some booze, but I can't drink and don't want to drink a sweet juice with meal. So I order a water, and they bring a bottle, but I want a glass of water! And the problem is...ordinary water at restaurant in Japan is free. So I can't stop thinking about its waste of money.

自然な表現

I have a big appetite for a Japanese person, but I can't finish all the meals that restaurants serve. I love pizza and pasta, but I can't finish them. The portions of most meals in Western countries at restaurants are too big for me! Besides, people tend to drink some alcohol, but I can't drink and don't want to drink sweet juice with my meal. So I order water, and they bring a bottle, but I want a glass of water! And the problem is that water at restaurants in Japan is free, so I can't stop thinking about the waste of money.

1. This is clearer and more grammatically correct.
2. By using the definite article "the," you're specifically referring to meals provided by restaurants, not just any meals in general.
3. The word "meal" should be in the plural form "meals" because the word "all" suggests you are talking about more than one meal.
4. The verb "serve" should be in the present tense to match the general statement about restaurants.
5. No need for repeating "I love."
6. Clarify the sentence by adding "finish them" to make it clear what you can't do.
7. 8. 10. 11. Use the plural form.
9. Capitalize "Western" because it's referring to a specific cultural group.
12. This is a more formal and clear term compared to "booze."
13. 15. Removed "a" because both "juice" and "water" are uncountable nouns in this context.
14. Adding "my" makes it clear that you are discussing your own experience with meals at restaurants. Without "my," the phrase "with meal" is vague and grammatically incorrect because it lacks a determiner (like "my," "the," or "a").
16. By introducing "that," you set up a specific issue you are discussing.
17. Use the plural form.
18. This part should be joined in one sentence.
19. Use "the" to clarify that you are referring to the money spent on bottled water.

Portion sizes and beverage options can vary widely. It might help to communicate your preferences clearly when ordering—such as requesting a glass of water instead of a bottle. Some places may be willing to accommodate you if you explain your concerns about waste. Have you found a particular strategy that helps you manage these differences when dining?

Though I have no idea if I can call this a strategy, I try to eat at my Airbnb or get a quick stand-up pizza. There isn't any problem with me, because I wasn't going to be "grummet tour" this time. Staying healthy is most important for me, so preparing simple meal by myself makes me feel good.

自然な表現

Though I have no idea if I can call this a strategy, I try to eat at my Airbnb or get a quick stand-up pizza. There isn't any problem for me because I wasn't planning to be on a "gourmet tour" this time. Staying healthy is most important to me, so preparing simple meals by myself makes me feel good.

1. The phrase "problem for me" is more appropriate here to indicate that there is no issue affecting the speaker. "With me" would imply a personal issue or fault, whereas "for me" conveys that the situation does not cause a problem.
2. This makes it clear that there was no intention to partake in a "gourmet tour."
3. This is the correct spelling.
4. This is more idiomatic when talking about what matters personally.
5. Use the plural.

What a practical approach for maintaining health while traveling! Keeping meals simple can definitely help manage both budget and well-being. Do you have any favorite quick recipes or go-to snacks you rely on during your trips?

There is a my favorite snack I first found here. It is made by three kind of seeds. And I brought a smoogy maker from my house. I'm mixing protein supplement, fruits and soy milk using it and drinking for breakfast.

自然な表現

There is my favorite snack I first found here. It is made with three kinds of seeds. I also brought a smoothie maker from my house. I'm mixing protein supplements, fruits and soy milk using it and drinking that for breakfast.

1. "A" and "my" are both determiners and only one can be used at a time. You could rephrase this whole sentence: "I discovered my favorite snack here."
2. The preposition "with" is more appropriate than "by" when describing the ingredients something is made of.
3. Using "kind" needs to agree with "three."
4. "And" at the beginning of the sentence is unnecessary here; "I also" is more natural to indicate an additional point.
5. This is the standard English term.
6. The word "that" clarifies what you are drinking for breakfast.

Mixing seeds, fruits, and protein supplements sounds like a great way to start the day. Do you have any favorite fruit combinations or special recipes you like to use with your smoothie maker?

I have been into. peach smoogy lately.

自然な表現

I have been into peach smoothies lately.

1. Removed the foolstop since it's unnecessary.
2. "smoothies" is the standard term for blended fruit drinks.
