Is there any Filipina here who lives near New Providence, PA? It's near Quarryville and Lancaster. I live here and I rarely see Pinays. Its sad. :crying: I wanna make new Filipina friends but I can't find some, well I did find a group but they are much older to me so I can't really hang-out with them a lot. I will be glad to meet new friends here. Thanks! :D

Sorry for the delayed reply. Sure I will! I met a Filipina here about 2 weeks after I got here and she introduced me to her friends. It was really nice! But the problem was they all have jobs and are busy which sucked.

We are in Milton ,PA. ot far from you.

Awwe.. I googled and thats also 2 and 1/2 hours away but thats fine, maybe I'll send you a message here when I will be able to drop by there sometime! Thanks! :D
