Alicante is becoming a top destination for Filipinos and Latin Americans in Spain—but why? In this video, we sit down with members of the Filipino community in Alicante (Comunidad de Filipinos en Alicante or CFA) to hear their real stories about moving to Spain, finding work, and building a new life abroad.
(English subtitles available! On the YouTube video, click the gear icon ⚙️, then choose "Subtitles/CC" and "Auto-translate", then choose "English" or your preferred language.) From the incredible health benefits and the work-life-balance culture to the simple joy of walking to the beach, discover why residents and immigrants are choosing this "City of Light" over bigger cities in Spain like Madrid or Barcelona. Whether you’re planning your own move or curious about the Pinoy experience abroad, this conversation captures the heart of the Filipino-Spanish connection.
What we cover in this video:
First impressions of living in Alicante vs. the Philippines.
The reality of finding jobs.
How the Communidad de Filipinos en Alicante (CFA) supports newcomers and immigrants.
Why the health system and security are major game-changers for families.
The vibrant community life: Volleyball, basketball, and Filipino food!
