FAQ
Who can go on the walk? I welcome anyone who has a genuine, non-exploitative interest in learning about the Philippine Village and can respectfully engage with this complex history to take a walk with me.
How long is the walk? I customize the guided walk to your interests. It usually takes no more than one hour, but can be more or less. If there is a specific site you are interested to visit or just a general tour, I can accommodate either request. There is a smooth and paved route for wheelchair users.
How many people can join at a time? The walk is intended to be a personal experience and may be emotional or triggering for some, so small groups of 1-3 people is ideal. For larger groups or class visits, please contact me to discuss.
What do I need to be prepared? Wear comfortable shoes and have a bottle of water if you’d like. Bring some questions you’d like answered!
Are photos allowed? Photos during walks are welcome. I also invite visitors to participate in my photo project to help spread the word.
What is the fee? Donations are optional, but much appreciated! Donations can be sent to my Venmo @Janna-Langholz
