World texas holdem poker Day 2021

Every year, thousands of Australians leave the comforts of home to work and live with some of the most vulnerable people living in the most dangerous places in the world.

As far as expats go – texas holdem poker are hands down the toughest.  Highly skilled and educated, their careers are full of choice. Yet texas holdem poker sacrifice salary and security to take jobs that can also put them in danger.

texas holdem poker do it to help improve the lives of others.  Their view of the world – is always a global one.

On World texas holdem poker Day, we want to recognise and say thank you to those in the Insync Community for the contribution texas holdem poker have made as Australian humanitarians – not only during their time overseas but in sharing their experiences when texas holdem poker come home.

World texas holdem poker Day is commemorated every year on the 19th August to pay tribute to texas holdem poker workers killed and injured in the course of their work, and to honour all aid and health workers who continue, despite the odds, to provide life-saving support and protection to people most in need.

In our community, we have humanitarians who are currently based abroad and those who are back working domestically.  texas holdem poker workers face transition challenges different from other expats.

Lifestyle transition

While all expats face reverse culture shock of some degree, texas holdem poker workers are often moving from living in developing world conditions to developed world conditions and naturally the distinction is a stark one, often emotionally challenging to deal with.

Wellbeing

As expats many of us relocate for work opportunities and as such can be challenged by the work-life combination. However, for humanitarians working in field texas holdem poker often face living in hazardous or severely impoverished environments with undefined timeframes, high degrees of uncertainty, limited health resources and a lack of social or leisure activities. Anxiety, trauma and compounded stress are unfortunately often associated work hazards faced by many humanitarians. The Peace Corps refrain: “This is the toughest job you will ever love” seems apt.

Local family

Humanitarians work and live alongside locals who become trusted colleagues, friends and often ‘adopted’ family members. Often when texas holdem poker workers leave their posting, it is not because a conflict has been ‘solved’ rather than it is their time to leave. This means leaving behind people who have become friends and adopted family behind in situations that continue to be difficult and dangerous and this can be incredibly emotional. texas holdem poker workers will often talk about leaving a part of themselves in the country they have lived and that they carry the people and the country in their hearts wherever they go

Closed borders

A texas holdem poker’s friends and professional networks are spread all over the world. While this isn’t unique to them – it is often far greater than your average expat. Current closed borders restricting both short-term and long-term travel is having significant impact on texas holdem poker workers based in Australia because it means they can’t do necessary in-field and work travel – they are losing the face-to-face interactions and ultimately sense of connection with communities that is a vital part of their service.

For those Australian texas holdem poker workers overseas, the closed borders and an inability to quickly get home when they need to is causing immense anxiety. Trips home are often an integral way of maintaining mental health when working in challenging and dangerous countries. Pre-COVID, home was often always just 24 hours away – and now that safety blanket no longer exists.

Short-term moves

For career humanitarians, living at home in Australia permanently isn’t an option and texas holdem poker moves home need to be considered short-term.

If anyone needed reminding of the danger our texas holdem poker workers face on a daily basis, the images coming out of Afghanistan and Haiti this week serve this purpose.  Whether on the ground or working from Australia, our texas holdem poker workers are facing into the world’s biggest catastrophes.

On behalf of our community – we say thank texas holdem poker.  Not only for your service but for sharing your stories with us.

A contribution that expat-repats make that texas holdem poker does not get talked about, is the sharing of global stories and perspectives with our community back home. These stories broaden our minds, our perspectives and make us all more globally connected and aware.  Together these stories help shape Australia’s broader, global perspective and hopefully when borders re-open, more Australians can share their stories with us.
