The story

Sarah Gonzales, a grade school teacher of English, joins the 150,000 Overseas Filipino Workers in the United Kingdom to support her husband, Teddy Gonzales, in making a better living for their family. More than just a chronicle of the Filipino experience working as nurses and caregivers in the UK, this story also charts Sarah's journey of self-discovery from a submissive wife who makes sacrifices for her husband's aspirations to an empowered woman who finds dignity and pride in a humbling job as a caregiver in London. The story begins as Sarah says goodbye to her familiar world.
