a relative sponsored me kaya ako nakapag abroad. sinuwerte naman

------
unang alis ko pala ng bansa, umutang ako sa mga kamag anak ko. sa mga lending. that was the year when my family were trying to make ends meet. that experience brought me to where i am today.

2004 pa ako andito Sa SG sis. Dito na din ako nagka family. Medyo mahirap nga pag from pinas iiwan nyo kids para mag work dito. There's so much sacrifice involved. But if it's any consolation marami kami friends dito na same situation. Iwan muna nila family for a while then kunin nila lag stable na sila. Usually in a year or two nakukuha na nila.

I was offered a job in Singapore. While there, I got reunited with an ex BF (we broke up because of the strains of long distance relationships). Got married in SG. Shortly after, hubby got an offer to work in Germany. We are Permanent Residents in Singapore, EU Residents in Germany, and we hold US Visa (tourists), pwede siguro kami maghanap ng work don and settle there if it's really necessary. Kung magka major problems, we have at least, these 3 options to fall back on.

yapeegurl · « **Reply #148 on:** February 15, 2011, 11:04:18 am »

^that's nice sis! we're here in SG too. Mas ok ba sa Germany in terms of cost of living? or same lang as SG? IT related ba hubby mo?

Claudia P · « **Reply #149 on:** February 16, 2011, 08:21:22 am »

hi sis yapeegurl! hmmm, how should i explain this.... let's just say, mas mura real estate dito by half. when we left SG in 2007, yun yata peak ng rentals/sales ng condo dyan. as in, namimili kami ni hubby kung magbe-baby kami or bibili ng condo unit. here, one can easily afford a car...audi, bmw, benz (cheapest since factory is here). In SG, parang pangarap na lang yon, plus, sobra din naman efficient transpo system dyan so you don't really need a car. Kaya lang, hubby pays 43% tax. Pero napapakinabangan din naman, as in may monthly allowance ang kids mo until they are 18 years old, sagot ng gov't education ng kids until high school, etc.
Downside lang, sobrang lamig, language barrier so one needs to really learn german, ang layo at ang mahal umuwi sa pinas. but in general, i think it's the best place to raise a family. my hubby is a cardiologist, but he is working as a clinical consultant for a medical equipment headquarters here. in demand din IT dito, so if you or your hubby is in the IT field, you can look into some opportunities here.

^nakaka engganyo naman sis..

oo super mahal ng kotse dito.. around 80k SGD ang Toyota.. and ngayon ang 3 bedroom sa ang mo kio is 2.3k to 2.5k per month ang rent. Maganda pala dyan kasi sagot ang school and meron allowance ang kids. We'll look into it pag malaki laki na si baby. Alagain pa din kasi ngayon.. Thanks for your input ha

Claudia P · « **Reply #151 on:** February 17, 2011, 01:20:50 am »

sis yapeegurl, nagmura naman na pala renta dyan. HDB ba yan sa AMK or private condo? Dito, we are paying around 2.2K sgd for a 3 BR bungalow with terrace and garden. Meron din yata akong makukuhang Mother allowance, up to 2 years nga lang. Sagot din ng medical insurance lahat ng gastos sa pregnancy, sa baby, even artificial insemination and InVitroFertilization. Pero gusto ko pa rin bumalik sa SG, hehe.

I applied for a tourist visa and was granted a 10yr multiple..

I was chosen to start a new business for our company and did the training abroad.. went to mexico, texas, chicago, LA, india and Kuala Lumpur..

yapeegurl · « **Reply #153 on:** February 17, 2011, 07:01:12 am »

Claudia P, HDB lang sis.. Ang condo ranges from 2.8k onwards.. hindi kaya ng budget.. sana maka tour kami dyan

First time ko out of Pinas nung nagpa-training ang Microsoft. We were sent to Brisbane Australia. Hindi ko masyado gusto dun kasi medyo discriminating

Not sure lang ngayon..

Claudia P · « **Reply #154 on:** February 18, 2011, 01:03:07 am »

@sis batchoy0819 - congrats! sarap ng feeling no? twice ako nagapply sa pinas before, syempre denied. nakakadepres... then i had to apply for a US visa again in SIngapore for work. Nabigyan ako, single entry. I needed to go back to the embassy, para lang magpakita na bumalik ako. Here in germany i applied again using hubbies documents, i was joining him on his business trip. approved agad, 10 years, no questions asked

@sis yapeegurl - wow sarap mo naman. i have not been to australia. gusto ko makapunta someday. dito surprisingly, hindi pa ko nadidiscriminate. sobra silang sensitive and careful dahil sa history nila with hitler : ) so ok di ba? mas nadiscriminate pa nga ako sa SG eh. Sana nga makpag tour ka dito. Abangan mo na lang promo sa singapore airlines. usually may and november meron.

yapeegurl · « **Reply #155 on:** February 18, 2011, 04:00:50 am »

^same tayo sis. Denied US application ko Sa pinas kahit sincere tour Lang ako nun kasi manganganak sister ko. Dito ako SG naapprove. 10yrs multiple din. No show money and Di pa ako permanent resident that time. Nako iipon muna kasi mahal mag tour dyan. Hehe

Ako naman i studied here in Australia... My kuya is a permanent resident here and my parents were green card holders (shempre sa states)... So ayun. And i also got married to an australian citizen.

Wala pa naman akong naexperience na discrimination dito, and if ever i will, sus lahat naman merong discrimination mas lalong lalo na sa pinas.
