Hong Kong is one of the safest places in the world. The safety standards are very high and there is little to worry about. Violence crime is generally low in Hong Kong though traveller's are encourage to take sensible.

There are much to see on Hong Kong its filled with famous attractions

historic building and popular theme park.

Filipino domestic helper here in Hong Kong have a better pay and work conditions becoming more demanding. The majority of Filipino domestic helper are very thorough with rules and regulations of Hong Kong labor department.

Hong Kong is the second home for many foreign workers of many ethnic groups, here you can hear a variety of good and bad stories about the things that happen in our everyday lives. There are stories of inspiration and some are hardship but whenever the predicaments are we still standing proud, strong to tackle each day with love dedication and persistence because each migrant worker no matter what the nationality is bound surpass every challenge and always hope the best.

Working abroad as domestic helper is great experienced, you will be suffered

outdated meals, tiredness, hungry, sleepless, even we feel sick we need to get up with the rang of our alarm clock to work. It's really difficult we need to work for other people, we work for money, we work for our dream.And the most importantly is we work for the sake of our family.

 I worked harder and wisely. I treasured all of my income. I make sure all of my income are not goes to waste/nothing. That's why over a year I worked here in Hong Kong I was able to bought already my property . Did you know that the most expensive that I was able to bought for my self is my white shoes worth 60hkd in Php arround 350😊, that's how I gave importance to my salary, during my holiday off I brought my pack lunch so that I wasn't able to spent money anymore and I ate my dinner on my employers home,I have a limit sending money to my husband I want to let them know that earning money is not easy here on abroad.

Despite these small  wins and blessings of mine, I want to tell you the story how I surpassed the darkness on my way before I gained my little success.

August 22,2018 it was the day I needed to say goodbye to my family, it was painful in my part as a mother to leave my kids in their very young age. But for me it was more painful to think that they would not have a better future.

As a newly worker here in Hong Kong was really never been easy, its hard ta adopt their culture, beliefs, and their cleaning practices.

There was a time before I want to surrender, having a five supervisor while doing my work in the very small house make me frustrated,  to walk here walk there while carrying the baby and the bag that so heavy make me tired, my employer very like to eat outside until late night, my employer have a car but here in Hong Kong they can't used their car as a shoes, they need to leave the car on the designated parking area, then we walk and walk until we reach the restaurant where we eat,late sleep, and their language make me stressed. I really knew before is  I can't t survive I almost cried every night asking my self '' do I made a wrong decision to leave my previous employment In the Philippines as card room supervisor in the casino industry?'',  but too many how comes into my mind if I go home" how's my dreams, hows my kids, how's may utang, how's my parents"?,  that's why instead I quit, I stay patient and focused on my daily task,I highly respect and follow the instructions that my employer gives me, I learned from my mistakes, they never been heard me to complain because I don't like any conflict between me and my employers, I want a harmonious working relationship.I'll do all my best attaining my employer satisfaction towards my work outcomes.I show them that I have dedication. I worked systematically organised, with or without their supervision I'm consistent doing my work especially in taking care of their 3 years twin  boys.

And then September 17 exactly on my 25th day here in Hong Kong massive storm go through in my life.I received a message from my brother telling me that my father was no more. I couldn't believe it, I thought it was just a dream, I want to cry that time but no tears drop into my eyes,but the pain in my heart is like an open wound. I don't know how to go on a brave  front but I'm  dying inside. I didn't informed immediately to my employer that I have burden because I don't want they will feel pity and conscience for me.I decided not to go home on that time because I don't have enough money and the money we should borrow for my tickets going home we set aside for the funeral of my father. During the interment of my father I don't want to see any pictures and updates on social media I unstall my Facebook account on that time because I want remain alive the memories of my father in my thoughts and in my heart. And another reason why I didn't insist anymore to go home to see the lastwake of my father  is probably it more worse I felt when I come back here. I know my father understand my decision because he knew how much I loved him, I gave /I do everything I can to help them financially and moral support during his lifetime.I stay strong despite the challenges in my life I accept the fact that my  father was gone to be able his soul can rest in peace, but my heart hurts up to now, sometimes I can't stopped my tears drops if I remember him. May be can only take off this pain if can cry out loud in the front of my father's tomb. I  lift up all my sorrow to our Lord God Almighty and I thank him for giving me strength and energy to faced the challenges in my life, he help me to able to endure, overcome and prevail. I believe the sun always shines after the storm.

After 3 months I feel betterer on my work, I got my employer confidence and trust to me. I can now do my own techniques to make my work easier. They kindness and generosity comes out, they treated me as a part of their family, they provided many food, I can eat whatever I want at home, they provided me my clothing, shoes and for my personal hygiene, they gave un expected bonuses, christmas bonus, red pockets for Chinese new year, one year bonus, birthday bonus, they gave red pocket also if mothers day  and if someone have birthday with them.

I'm now enjoying working/serving to family Hui. I'm now enjoying discovering and exploring the beauty Hong Kong and travelling other countries together with my employer.

I am now happy and excited because in just a few steps I nearly reach the finish line of my own race.

And I hope by God grace I will be fulfill all my dreams come true.

I work hard I dream big and I never give up, because I want to give my family life I never had. I believe blessing come at the right time for those who patiently waits.

This is the power of pinoy and the power of the people.
