Hello everyone,

My name is Evangeline a filipina and I am 22 years old and we (my fiancee (66) and i with 2 kids) are planning to move to Fayetteville, Arkansas hopefully this July 1, 2014. Does anybody know how i can contact some of the Filipinos or a Filipino Community in Fayettevile? I want to be in touch with them so i will not be very isolated.

mod cut

Thank-you!
Your help is very much appreciated.

Filipino communities typically are very close-knit. Where are you moving from? It's rare that a Filipino moves to an area where someone they currently know doesn't know SOMEONE there, in my experience.

Hi JWG223,

I am from a small town of Alburquerque in the island of Bohol, Philippines. We are moving to Fayetteville, Arkansas because of the University. Where are you from?

Shreveport, LA, although I am not Filipino. I'm moving to NW Arkansas next year. I lived in McAllen Texas for 4 years. Huge Filipino community.

It seems like I visited a hypnotherapist on College Ave once whose wife was of Filipino descent. Sorry that's all I've got! :lol:

Hi Evangeline. I just happened to read the blogs in this forum. I'm Sterling from Balilihan, Bohol! It's nice to meet you here. Have you moved to Fayetteville yet? I'm married with 2 kids and we're thinking of moving to Rogers, AR next spring after my kindergartner son is done with school. I'd be glad to hear from you. it's nice to know someone in the area before getting there. di ba?
Anybody in Rogers area here? please let me know ...
thanks guys!

you might want to see if you can contact the original poster directly some how. They haven't come back to post so who knows if they ever moved here. Good luck and welcome to AR or welcome when you get here.

Default nmita :)

Hello nmnita. I tried sending her a message so far I didn't hear anything. I was just excited to talk to her since where she came from in Bohol is very close to my own town as well. But of course I want to meet anyone from the Philippines in the Fayetteville-Rogers area so I can get more feedbacks about this place. Currently, we're living in Phoenix, so moving there next year would be very different environment (less crowd and different weather ). I'd like a private message nmnita. If you want to tell me about yourself and NWA (where's best to live or find an apartment) I would be very happy. please email me whenever you can. sterling_81ph@yahoo.com.
Thank you

The email you listed isn't working. You should be able to just PM me. But, I don't live in Fayetteville, we are north of there and of course I am not from the Philippines. I can try and answer your questions.

If timgie ever returns, the local catholic church should be your first stop.

I've heard there's a meet up of local filipinos on facebook (NWAFAA, NWAFH). My wife and my best friend are filipinos but they don't mingle.

There's also a filipino supermarket in fayettville just off 412 called Mana.
