About Expats.GoSEAsia

Hello! I’m Mike Hamilton, originally from the United States. After many years in the IT and computer industry, I decided to take a new direction in life — one that brought me to the Philippines and Southeast Asia. What started as a personal adventure turned into a passion for helping others who want to make the same move.

When I first arrived, I realized how valuable it would be to have one central place where expats and locals could share honest advice, daily experiences, and practical tips — from visas and healthcare to culture, business, and life adjustments. That’s how Expats.GoSEAsia.com was born.

This community is for everyone — expats already living here, people planning their move, and local Filipinos who want to connect and share their perspective. My goal is to make this forum an open, respectful, and useful resource for all of us navigating life in the Philippines.

So jump in, share your experiences, ask questions, and help others who are just beginning their journey. Together we can make life abroad a little easier, one conversation at a time.
