PINAYexpat, the personal blog, is a hybrid blog. Not only do I blog about everything that is important in my life, I also blog about the nonessentials. I talk about my kids and then I’d switch from being sappy to angtsy as I rant about my problems at work.

Irrelevant or not, what I blog about is important to me. In my opinion, they are legitimate blog fodder. However, this kind of blogging will not really fit with what BNN has in mind. This blog needs to have more focus.

Hence, we have changed the name to MyExpatConfessions where the spotlight will NOT be on ME but on HOW LIFE IS FOR A FILIPINA (that would still be me, though) ABROAD.

So… what will I blog about…

I will blog in detail about HOW I FOUND WORK ABROAD. Perhaps, that could give some of you some ideas, should you be interested to spend a part of your life working elsewhere.

Before the HATERZ (don’t you just hate how jologs that sounds?!) start, I am not encouraging people to leave the country. But if you must leave, I want to at least be able to share with you my experiences so you could get a great expat package.

In addition, I will also talk about how I manage to bring my whole baranggay home to the Philippines once or twice a year na walang mintis! I’d also be sharing my REPATRIATION plans (looking for work, home and school, among others), as my family and I prepare for our move back to our homeland in a couple of years.

Other topics I intend to talk about: Finances, Expat Parenting, Multi-Cultural Workforce, Foreign Language, Racism and Stereotypes and Fellow Filipino Expats. If you think I missed any topic, do let me know.

Oh yeah, don’t let me do all the talking. Indulge me and let me know what you have to say.
