Hi!... I'm Marie, been living here in Scotland for 2 months now, and so far I haven't seen any Filipinas yet around my area here in Falkirk.

I hope to find friends here instead, doesn't matter where you are here in UK as long as we can have some meet ups sometimes, or be friends in Facebook instead :biggrin:..

Welcome to the Forum Marie, I'm sure you will find friends on here.

My wife had the same problem for a long while but I think things are beginning to come together now. Good luck! :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Welcome Marie. :Wave:

I'm sure there are forum members living not too far from you. Hopefully they'll make themselves known to you. Good luck in finding some new friends and chatmates here anyway. :xxgrinning--00xx3:

Marie ... I must say I'm surprised you haven't yet met any Filipinas in and around Scotland's 'Central Belt'. Falkirk is only 40~odd miles from the Fair City of Perth where my wife has lived since joining me here just over five years ago. :smile:

And in that time ... :anerikke: ... scarcely a day passes when she doesn't happen to "bump into" her fellow kababayan in town.

Can I perhaps suggest visiting one or other of the main Shopping Malls in your locality, e.g., the 'Thistle Centre' in nearby Stirling. Also, you might even consider attending a Catholic Church in Falkirk. :smile:

Another suggestion keep an eye on care homes at clocking on/ off times - 8am & 8pm you'll often see them going in & out

Welcome to our friendly forum , Marie.

Some good suggestions from the posters. Another suggestion would be to go to the Bario Festival in Hamilton in a couple of months time http://feest-uk.com/SCOTLAND-BARRIO-FIESTA-with-MEGAWORLD-INTERNATIONAL-Hamilton-2014

You'll meet loads of pinoys there , many of whom will have similar circumstances to yours and I'm sure you'll make some new friendships. Best wishes in your new life in Scotland.
