Nowadays many of our compatriots prefer to work abroad,specially now that we are so affected the pandemic,even it is difficult but necessary for the good of the family to be able to sustain thier every needs and lift the family into poverty,they need to go,courage is the only key to survive the when the homesick attack.You cannot comtrol your tears specially when you are first timer in abroad.You have to prepare your self for all the consiquences there.

The departure

On the day you leave that is the painful and difficult part of working abroad,youre temporarily say goodbye to your family and loveones and there no certainly if you ar able to come back home safely,even if you are nervous and feel like backout na but you have to taje a risk thinking that everything will be ok,hoping and praying that your employer will be kind and never hurt you physically.You will your family this only temporary,you only save enough money the finish the contract.But suddenly the opposite happen right,the 2 yrs become 3 4 5 6 yrs and so on..You can never tell.

Upon arrival in your workplace

From the airport,the agency will pick you up then bring into thier office,after a few hours your employer will pick you to take to thier house will you will work and stay for 2 yrs or more it depends on how they treated you,if they treat and feed you well you can stay long or longer more but if not 3 months you can left them and request to return you into the agency,then the agency will find you another employer that is better than the other one.

Base on my experience

In my case,my first week stay with is ok i work normal as cleaning the house,after doing all the chors i can make food that i want,the whole house full of camera in the kitchen,dinning room,living room and the 4 rooms have also,they see if im working or not.I was thankful that time i said to my self that im lucky coz have a good employer.They have 2 kids that time and going to school everyday so that im alone in the whole morning,during lunch the kids will arrived from school they treated me good also,they are friendly.

Misconception,almost a month of staying with them i notice that my lady boss attitude change,i notice that all my action are monitured ang counted even when i ate and have coffee,even when i seat a little for relax.She is always monitoring the camera and checking me every now and then even im alone in the,i dont know maybe she dont trust me or what idono.

Months pass by i decided to stay in the same employer instead of going back into agency.Because when i return to agency my stay there will be even longer coz another contract will start again.So even though i only ate once a day i endured.Im losing my weight to much,im 55kls when i arrived after a year only 42kls.its like a skeleton hahaha.The lady boss become very stingy she got angry when she saw me eating so somethimes i learn to steal and hide some foods.Sometimes when they send ne to store i will buy some noodles,bread and cupcakes i will hide it in my pocket and under my clothes hehehe,my room is in the roof top no camera they cant see me if im eating.

Finish contract

After 2 years i finish already my contract and so excited to go home,i thank god that i survive all the trials that im going through,even i lost too much weight its ok atleast now im free,i can ate whatever i want to my hometown i wil gain weight again.Byebye naughty employer hahaha.

• Its not easy to work in another country,all the hardship you can go through there.Im still lucky that even my boss was stingy,they wasn't hurt me physically and i went home safely.Its more pitifull for those who have abused by thier employeer and some are unlucky went home inside the box.

• For the families of OFW's please dont always think about the money that will be sent,say hello and ask always if they are ok there.Its important for the OFW the support from family mentally and emotionaly,Give them strenght and pray always for there safety.

Goodnight everyone
