Working holidays in Manila?

Question

I have been given the opportunity to work in the Philippines, i live in Australia.

I work in an aged care home as a carer. I was wondering if someone could please tell me the names of some nursing homes in Manila? if there are any...

If not could you please tell me the names of some community help programs?

Thanks for your time

If I were you I would highly suggest you read your contract before you go there if you choose to work there. Also be prepared because manila has no equal place to any city in Australia. It's a totally different place and its really really on the go that city. I can only offer you advice on what you are going to expect if you haven't been there before. Learn as much as you can online about Manila and the customs and culture that you'll be immersing yourself into, have a back up plan ready incase it doesn't work and you need to get out of there in a hurry. Last but not least you will be attracting alot of attention because I assume your white. This has alot of advantages but also disadvantages as you will be treated differently. If you need anymore general advice give me a buzz I'll help out a fellow Aussie.
