Hey this is Reze. I am new here located in Huntington Beach, California with my fiancé.

I am from Cebu Philippines and would like to make some new friends here.

Are there any Filipinas near me that would like to Skype or yahoo chat and help me get accustomed to this strange new land?

Hi Ann. Naa diay ka nagpuyo dapit sa Greer, SC? Nakaadtu na ko sa Greenville, SC kay akung parents-in-law didtu man gapuyo. Kamu sa pag-Skype ni Reze dayun ingna nya ko kung di ba spam. Medyo cautious lang ko kay I have not seen her post here before and sometimes VJ gets spammed. Medyo sigurista lang ko. Ahehehe... No offense meant to Reze.
