Pinay in the UK

Time to be serious. This is especially for those Filipina's who have been here around a year or less. How have you found the UK, what is it like, do you miss home, have you made a mistake? Etc.....

Will always miss Pinas and will retire in Pinas someday.
But then I'm flexible, as long as I can work and save and visit Pinas that will be OK!

Happy having lovely and real supportive in-laws. They're always there They understands how I wish to go home too and support me if I want to go home.

UK is lovely, breath taking country side I must say!
Good government spoiling lazy citizens

On my first year I was shy to speak english. Worried because others may poorly judge my bad english lol. I have phobia in speaking english!
I was poorly judged by a filipina and a thai that time. I remember.
But I am proud now, I speak chinese if I can't speak english

Hhhmmmm. This is a thread I'd like to see grow!

I would also like to ask, did any Pinay find support amongst other Pinays?

What helped the "settling in" process?

I always helped Pinays, I don't expect anything in return. Some Pinay here are really mean. Their feet are always above the ground.
But met nice members too.

I have never met any pinay in our area not till I was about a year and a half in our area when I enrolled at college but thats about it.IMHO its better to live in a place which is a pinay area free not to offend anybody but its hard to find a true and honest pinay here not unless you knew them already back home.

Too hard to find true friends overseas.
I will always cherish my old friends!
Childhood friends, classmates, and some I've got from Taiwan. They are like old wine
They knew me a lot, almost everything, and they still LOVE me.

I dumped pinay friends if they are so mean. You're right Wheelah!
