Kumusta, Kabayan?
OFW or Filipino immigrant, you belong to the millions of Overseas Filipinos all over the world. You are among the modern-day heroes of the Philippines because of your remittances. The money you send sustains your family and the country's economy.
Or you are planning to work abroad but do not know where to start.
You are in the right place!
This website will guide and help you in going abroad and coming back home in these phases:
1. Pre-departure - looking for jobs and getting requirements
2. Working and living abroad - knowing helpful tips to help you adjust to your new place, and
3. Coming home - for vacation or for good, also called re-integration.
So you can enjoy work and life with family and friends here and abroad.
My previous work keeps me aware of issues of Pinoy migrant workers abroad. Your needs, concerns and triumphs inspired me to set up this website. It will lead you by the hand as you walk through the overseas journey. This is your website -- make it your place.
Going abroad and coming back home is a cycle. How many times did you plan to come home for good? And how many times did you not find the right time to do so? Opportunities and life seem better abroad.
No matter where you are in the cycle, I'll be writing about...
The helpful tips and information in this website are useful to your family as well. And since the stories and experiences here are close to their hearts, they will understand and love you more.
Exciting stories inspire and give hope to fellow OFWs, immigrants and their families. Each story of friends, relatives, readers and people living and working abroad has a life of its own.
I invite you to share your story as an OFW or immigrant. Inspire others or let them learn from your experience. You are a hero and you should be proud of that. Make your family proud of you, too. Add pictures to give more life to the story.
This website will grow as you and I add more stories and information. The best way to get updated is to subscribe to my monthly newsletter. It tells you each month about the new information added. Sign up here.

Let's start, and enjoy your journey as an Overseas Filipino...
