kamusta po! thanks for accepting me in the forum.

im working in ireland, also already a citizen of ireland after years of ofw effort ;)

now i found work in Birmingham city centre in an engineering consulting firm (near the train station) hopefully to start 3rd wk of april.

will be my first time in that city, i dont know anyone. but dugong ofw po kaya sabak sa unknown ok lang.

im scanning online looking for a room/place to stay, any chance any pinoy's here from Birmingham know or could recommend any for rent ?

sharing with any nice pinoy family would really provide me a soft landing in the uk with less risk, and also to connect with our kababayan. preference is big enough room than a single room size, some quiet after 9pm, has internet. dont mind sharing bills. no bad habits for me, loves to chat, walking and hiking, read books and listen to solopiano music, taga-davao po sa atin. salamat!

hi thanks all for the welcome!

from co carlow. lots of connections also with filipinos in kildare and cork. i have travelled around ireland quite a bit (working as telecom engineer), was thinking of travelling around uk. so transferring to the UK interests me, esp for my hiking and photography hobby. but im not really leaving ireland, really nice courteous folks here. gonna spot visit once a month if i can.

thanks for the tel info ill keep in touch with them. :smile:
