Every Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) dreams to provide financial stability to their families in the Philippines. They work so hard to give them a brighter future. If there are horror stories about Filipinos working abroad, there are also success stories worth pondering.

Christina Cogonon Patorio went to Kuwait to work as a domestic worker for the welfare of her two children. She is a single mom. Patorio’s eldest child is already married while the youngest is in college.

After working for many years in Kuwait, she was proud of the house she invested in. Although it’s not as grand compared to the houses of other OFWs, she was really happy with what she achieved.

“Dati bahay kubo lng ngayon, naka pagawa ako ng simpleng bahay na matibay. 2 kwarto, may sala, dining area, kitchen, at 1 bathroom. Simple lng kasi sabi ko darating ang panahon na yung bunso ko mag aasawa siya at hindi ko alam kung saan ang swerte niya. Maiiwan akong mag isa sa bahay. Mabuti na yung maliit at least kahit hindi na ako makatayo, makaka gapang ako punta ng kusina, maka luto at maka kain ako,” says Christina.

But that’s not all. The OFW also managed to invest in a 1-hectare land where corn is being grown.

“Mas priority ko ang pangkabuhayan kaya para saakin hindi ko kailangan ng bonggang bahay. Mapagtapos ko lang ang aking anak sa college ok na ako kasi wala akong yaman na maipana sa kanila kundi ang edukasyon lamang na hindi manakaw ng kahit na sino,” Christina added.
