Our New Panglao Home? UK Family Shops for Home Furnishings in Alturas & ICM Bohol, Philippines

UK family continues their Panglao property search in Bohol, Philippines — exploring Alturas and ICM, shopping for home essentials, and taking a huge next step in their tropical island journey.

After months of viewing houses around Panglao Island, this episode marks a big turning point for our British expat family living in the Philippines. We head into the bustling stores of Alturas Mall and ICM Tagbilaran, hunting for furniture, décor, and everything a young family needs to make life on a tropical island feel like home.

We’ve been documenting every stage of our move from the UK to the Philippines, showing what it’s really like to relocate with kids, homeschool abroad, and create a simple, family-focused life in Southeast Asia. From adjusting to island living to finding local stores, it’s been an adventure — and today brings an exciting new chapter in our story.

🇬🇧 About Us

We’re a British family of four who left the UK to begin a slow-travel lifestyle across Southeast Asia. After spending time in Manila and Bacolod, we settled in beautiful Bohol, where we homeschool our daughter, raise our baby, and share our experiences of living abroad as expats.

Our channel, In the ’Ppines, captures the everyday reality of family life overseas — from the highs of tropical freedom to the challenges of building a home and routine in a new country.
