A three-hour exploration of what it means to be at home. Whether you want to feel more comfortable about living in this new-to-you city or whether you want to explore more, do more and be more in Manila, this workshop is for you. 

Does this sound like you?

I just moved to Manila! I’m so overwhelmed.

I want to make friends.

I want to discover fascinating places

to go to and stuff to do (that's not in the mall).

How do I do that?

This is my home now but it still feels so strange for me and my family. How can I feel more at home wherever I am?


You're not alone.



Welcome to At Home in Manila, At Home with Yourself.

Whether you’re new to the Philippines or have been living here for years, this workshop will give you a new perspective by looking at the city through the concept of place attachment, getting actionable tips on creating a home, discovering fascinating things to do and living a full life from Amber Folkman, an expat mom who’s been living in Manila for the last nine years.

Life coach Aurora M. Suarez will guide you to honor your feelings about your new home while helping you envision (and act on) creating a beautiful life in Manila (or whatever city you may find yourself living in the future).
