Our Story
Bring a piece of that place back home.
After living in Europe for a few years, in 2011 both founders settled in this small island in the Pacific called Guam. Fueled with inspiration and memorable experiences from traveling, to keep themselves reminded of each place, they began to collect keepsakes from their travels, most notably souvenir magnets.
At the time, they noticed they couldn't find a lot of Guam themed souvenirs. With extensive background as artists, they started to design and create their own magnets, tote bags, mugs and more, and just like that Happy Manta Studio and Hello Guam! were born.
Happy Manta, Inc. was incorporated in 2017. In that same year they created Whereto®, a brand they envisioned to represent countries and cities around the world. The opportunity to create products for other countries led to distributions in Japan, South Korea and Europe.
Our Mission
To provide products to people that capture the memorable moments of travel and the places we love through imaginative and fresh designs.
