× The Philippines is my hometown, it is a tropical country that has a lot of island, delicate foods and very hospitable people.

✓ The Philippines is my hometown, it is a tropical country that has a lot of islands, delicate foods and very hospitable people.

The word 'island' should be plural 'islands' because it refers to many islands in the Philippines. Using the singular form here is incorrect when talking about multiple items.

× And I really believe that my country is really great destinations for travelers and families to enjoy vacations due to umm our beautiful places.

✓ And I really believe that my country is really a great destination for travelers and families to enjoy vacations due to umm our beautiful places.

The phrase 'great destinations' should be singular 'a great destination' because 'my country' is singular. The subject and complement must agree in number.

× What I love about my hometown the Philippines is our beautiful islands such as Charga and Boracay.

✓ What I love about my hometown, the Philippines, is our beautiful islands such as Cagayan and Boracay.

The sentence is mostly correct in plural usage, but the place name 'Charga' seems to be a misspelling of 'Cagayan'. This is a proper noun correction rather than grammar, but important for clarity.

× Another is our delicate foods such as Senegal, Adobo and Lechon Belli.

✓ Another is our delicious foods such as Sinigang, Adobo and Lechon Belly.

The word 'delicate' is incorrect here; 'delicious' fits better to describe food. Also, 'Senegal' is a country, likely a mistake for 'Sinigang', a Filipino dish. 'Lechon Belli' should be 'Lechon Belly'. These are vocabulary corrections rather than grammar, but important for clarity.

× And lastly, another thing that is very lovable in our country is the hospitable people making you feel home.

✓ And lastly, another thing that is very lovable in our country is the hospitable people who make you feel at home.

The phrase 'making you feel home' is incorrect. It should be 'who make you feel at home' to correctly use the relative clause and preposition.

× I did not spend a lot of time living in the Philippines.

✓ I have not spent a lot of time living in the Philippines.

Since the question is about how long the person has lived there up to now, the present perfect tense 'have not spent' is more appropriate than simple past 'did not spend'.

× I only lived there for seven years and then my parents took me and my brother to study here in Qatar for a better future.

✓ I lived there for only seven years, and then my parents took me and my brother to study here in Qatar for a better future.

The sentence is mostly correct, but 'only' is better placed before 'seven years' for natural emphasis.

× But I would say that the childhood in the Philippines is really fun and really memorable.

✓ But I would say that childhood in the Philippines is really fun and really memorable.

The article 'the' before 'childhood' is unnecessary because 'childhood' is an uncountable noun referring to a general period.

× The Philippines is a good place for young people because we offer a lot of tourist spots like our islands, our forests, our mountains and other land forms which makes it more enjoyable for young people as there is more adventure and new things to try.

✓ The Philippines is a good place for young people because we offer a lot of tourist spots like our islands, our forests, our mountains and other landforms which make it more enjoyable for young people as there are more adventures and new things to try.

'Land forms' should be one word 'landforms'. Also, 'which makes' should be 'which make' to agree with the plural subject 'islands, forests, mountains and landforms'. Similarly, 'there is more adventure' should be 'there are more adventures' to agree with plural 'adventures'.
