    Kumusta sa inyong lahat!

    I stumbled across the forum whilst researching my heritage. I was born in Hong Kong, but raised in the UK (Dorset). I now live in London.

    My father never let my mum or my cousins speak to me in Filipino or in the Ilocano dialect which makes me very sad but I am actively learning both now.

    I am hoping to meet new people who can help me with both. I know more people can speak Filipino but I really want to keep my Ilocano heritage alive too and be able to speak with my family idiay adda ti la union. Ilocotaglish all the way.

    I look forward to speaking with you all :)

    Hi Nat and welcome to the forum. Interesting that your father wanted it that way. My daughter is half (Brit-Fil) and just under a year old but I am actively encouraging her momma to learn her Cebuano at minimum, maybe Tagalog too. Hope you find what you need.
