Question for Filipino nurses working in the US, Canada, the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand: Have you built close friendships with locals, or is your social circle mostly other Filipinos and fellow immigrants?
I’m the son of an OFW and have been living in Saudi Arabia for 13 years. During all that time, I haven’t really made any Saudi friends. In my experience, many Saudis don’t seem interested in becoming friends with Filipinos. I’m hoping to become a nurse in the future, so I’m curious about the experiences of Filipino nurses working abroad.
