OFW in Hong Kong Fights to Finish Her Dream House
A Pinay OFW in Hong Kong continues to fight to finish building her dream house.
Liz’s story is one that many overseas Filipino workers can relate to. Leaving your home country to work in a foreign land is a challenging decision, but it’s one that many Filipinos make in search of better opportunities and a brighter future for their families.
For Liz, building her own house was one of her biggest dreams, and she worked hard to make it a reality. She saved as much as she could while working in Hong Kong and, after years of sacrifice and perseverance, she finally had enough money to start construction on her dream house in the Philippines.
Liz shared how she took a chance in going to another country back in 2015. The Pinay OFW saved as much as she could until in 2019, the construction of her dream house finally began.
“Dati akong ofw sa doha,but unfortunately dahil sa mababa nuon ang sahod walang naipundar. Then year 2015 nag apply ako dito sa Hk,luckily September 2015 nakaalis ulit dala ang pangarap na makaipon, para sa maliit na lote at makapagpatayo ng bahay kahit maliit lang din,and God is goodbinigay niya sobra pa bunos pa yung napunta ako sa mababait na employer,” Liz said.
The process of building a house is never easy, especially when you’re miles away from home. However, she remained determined and focused, knowing that the end result would be worth all the effort.
As an OFW, Liz also learned many valuable lessons that she believes can inspire and motivate her fellow OFWs. She believes that perseverance, hard work, and faith in God are essential in overcoming the challenges of working abroad.
“Marami man pagsubok pero ika nga hindi tayo bibigyan ni Lord ng pagsubok na hindi natin kakayanin. Sa lahat ng sakripisyo natin abroad,may biyayang kapalit yan! Kapit lang sa Kanya Medyo malayo na,pero malayo pa,” she added.
