10 months after landing a job in my dream city in Europe, I packed up and moved back to Manila. I have no regrets.
Briefly

"When I landed a job in my dream city, I thought the hard part was over. I got my master's degree in journalism in London and was hired as an entry-level business reporter, making $36,000 a year. Despite being on the lower end for the UK, where the median gross annual salary is about $45,400, I was thrilled because journalists back home earn an average of $7,000 annually."
"Living in London was a dream come true. I lived in a warehouse with five other Londoners, our rooftop overlooked Victoria Park, and I paid $1,075 a month for my room. Making great friends, who like many were journalists in flux, enriched my experience as we explored new parks, went bar-hopping, and enjoyed life in this vibrant city."
