Hi, I'm Melody Nadal 43 years of age, Filipina. I'm a domestic helper for 18 years 3 years in Lebanon, 1 year in Malaysia, 1 year in Taiwan 3 months in Germany, and 3 months in the USA. Most of my employers are x pats taking me all the time they will go back home.
I've been here in Hongkong for 15 years. I'm proud of my Job as a helper because of this job I finished college, sent my daughter to college supported my family and whoever needed my help in the Filipino community. Same time helping my employers to make their lives easy. I still love to work in Hong Kong as I aim to renovate my house and prepare to save up for my future retirement. During my free time, I'm a writer and public speaker.
Thank you for reading my next possible family. For me being a domestic helper is an honourable professional job.
