MANILA, Philippines — The founder of Facebook group Home Buddies launched a new online travel hangout. 

After a successful Home Buddies Community, Mayora Frances Lim Cabatuando expanded her online city with Home Buddies Hangouts.  

“From merely being a home enthusiasts group, Home Buddies has become one of Filipinos’ go-to source for authentic finds and reviews. Since we’ve been successful in helping Filipinos navigate the pandemic home improvement era, we believe there’s a role for us to play in helping them enter this revenge travel phase,” Cabatuando said.  

“The goal of Home Buddies Hangouts is to inspire better vacations, with strong focus on better accommodations, because we believe that the best trip is a well-rested one,” she added.

 
Home Buddies Hangouts had its soft launch on April 17, 2022 while Cabatuando was finding a place to celebrate her brother’s 21st birthday. She was lucky to find a secret lake house in Pililia, Rizal that had not been listed on travel apps yet.
 
“I think people are seeing the merit of this little big travel group. In two months, we’re now at 20,000 members and over 300 posts. We’ve actually already given out two overnight stays, one in Cavite and one in Quezon City. More to come as we continue to grow,” she said. 

Mayora Frances Lim Cabatuando is one of the exclusive talents under NYMA, a talent agency focused on nurturing trailblazers to break through all media spaces. She regularly posts vlogs on her channels.
