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?

Research/Survey/Interview

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.
