Eh, Kamusta Na?: A Funny and Honest Look at Filipino Immigrant Journey in Canada by Ian Montenegro

So, you finally made it to Canada—congrats! Now what?

Your nose is frozen, your wallet’s crying, and the job market just hit you with your 47th “Thanks, but we went with someone else.” Welcome to the Filipino immigrant experience—unfiltered, funny, and full of heart.

Eh, Kamusta Na? shares the real deal of starting over in a land of snow, small talk, and sky-high rent. From surviving your first winter (spoiler alert: “feels like -30°C” is a real thing) to navigating job hunts, potlucks, parenting without tsinelas, and that awkward moment when your baon stinks up the office microwave—this book gets it.

This isn’t just a survival guide—it’s your story, told with laugh-out-loud honesty and warm, unapologetically Filipino heart.

• Perfect for newcomers, long-time immigrants, or anyone who’s ever stuffed a balikbayan box with more snacks than sense.
• Packed with humor, hugs, and diskarte you won’t find in any immigration handbook.

Whether you’re bagong dating or decades in, this book will have you laughing, nodding, and saying, “Ay, ako ‘to!”
Read it. Laugh with it. Gift it.

Because no winter can freeze a Filipino heart on fire.
