Hello,

Im moving to pointe noire soon!.looking for house or apartment with 2 rooms..with swimming pool too

I am Filipina,i dont speak french very well but i understand a bit.

i heard life in congo very far from the life here in angola,.

any filipino group or association in pointe noire?

hasta pronto pointe noire!

Hi,

Understanding a little bit of French will definitely help you here.  Ordering at a restaurant or shopping was initially difficult because I don't speak any French.

I have not heard of any Filipino groups or associations but I have met Filipinos while I was shopping in the markets and have seen Filipinos at a disco I went to last month. So there are Filipinos here - I don't know of any formal organizations.

My wife's company already leased the apartment we live in before we moved here.  Will a company help you search for a house or apartment? Or do you need to search on your own?

Hello,

Wow good to know that there are some filipinos there.

For the moment,i dont know if the company of my husband will assist us to find our own house.
