Well if Filipino can survive, how could I not? Besides which, many resort hotels provide staff accommodation, so that might be one less thing to worry about. It is not to earn money, if that was the purpose it would be a waste of time. It's just for experience and I would do it practically for pennies if I got meals and accommodation. Here hotel below senior management jobs are low paid, of course it's a lot more than the philippines, but the cost of living is so high you still end up with next to nothing after a few good nights out.
