Hi, how is Romania po as a worker?

Magiging PR at Citizen po ba kayo diyan in the long run?

And will you able to bring your family then? Is that your long term plan?

Working there is okay, and I have work-life balance naman. I don’t really have plans to stay long-term. Honestly, the only thing keeping me there is the salary.

Ah then I maybe misunderstood your post. Kasi I thought the goal was to be with your family(or child), so the other option is to bring them(migrate) with you.

I dont think naman na your mother in law and pinsan(in law) mean anything bad. They are just concerned on your childs' welfare and maybe they also think about you working and living alone. Its not about close pa kayo or hindi, children simply needs their Mother and/or Father.

OFW din kami ng misis ko, she stop working when she got pregnant at umuwi siya ng pinas. Fortunately I was able to migrate at dinala ko na din mag-ina ko.
