Working and living overseas is an unforgettable experience for all Filipino workers, a bitter-sweet moment for all. Moving to a new country - miles away from your family and familiar surroundings can lead to homesickness. You will also face the inevitable challenge of adapting to a new work environment and practices, cultural adjustment, and even a language barrier. These are some of the hurdles that you may encounter along the way. But come to think of the bright side of working and living in a different country: it is a unique and fulfilling experience not just for your personal but also your professional life.
By taking this huge step, you will make a better life for yourself and your family by earning higher salaries abroad than in the Philippines. You can also develop new expertise, leave your comfort zone, become independent, travel, and explore picturesque places you once dreamed about going to.
