How do I meet people in Manila?
When we asked people living in Manila about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Expats in Manila often join clubs and activities such as golf, tennis, sailing, and running. Expats also join social clubs, such as the American Women's Club of Manila, the Manila International Club, and the Manila British Club. Additionally, expats can meet people by attending events hosted by the local embassies, joining language classes, or attending meet-ups organized by expat groups. Expats can also meet people by attending local festivals, joining a church or religious group, or volunteering with a local charity," remarked another expat who made the move to Manila, Philippines.
"Taking language courses at one of the Universities or Colleges is a good way to meet both locals and other expats whilst learning language and culture. I can personally recommend De La Salle/CELL or Christian Language Study Centre. If you can get membership of a Sports or Country Club, grab it. I've been a member of Valle Verde Country Club and found it to be a fantastic place to get away from the bustle and noise of Manila, not to mention play sports," explained one expat living in Manila, Philippines.
