Monisha S. G. – A Journey of Strength, Opportunity, and New Beginnings
At 31, Monisha looks back on a journey shaped by determination and the belief that hard work creates possibilities.
She completed her M.Sc. Nursing at Thasiah College of Nursing (2021–2023) – years that strengthened her skills, confidence, and ambition.
In April 2025, she made a life‑changing move to Germany – completely free of cost.
Leaving her family and her hometown behind was not easy, but Monisha knew that this step would open doors to a better future.
She now lives in Greifswald, a peaceful city in northern Germany, and works at the prestigious Universitätsmedizin Greifswald in the Pediatric Oncology Department.
In July 2025, she began preparing for her “Anerkennungsprüfung”, with the goal of taking the exam in
September 2026.
The journey has had its challenges – especially the language.
“I want to improve my communication skills. German is not easy. But the people here are friendly, supportive, and they help us grow. Nurses earn well, the work environment is less stressful, and the culture is welcoming. I like living here.”
Despite moments of homesickness, Monisha has embraced her new life with courage and consistency.
Her story reflects what is possible when opportunity meets dedication – and how a nursing education from Thasiah College can lead to a global career.

Benitta W. K. – From Uncertainty to Confidence: A Nurse’s Path to Germany
When Benitta looks back on her journey, she sees a path filled with challenges, growth, and quiet strength.
She completed her Nursing studies between 2020 and 2023 at Thasiah College of Nursing, always carrying the hope of building a stable and fulfilling career abroad.
That hope became reality on 7 April 2025, when she arrived in Germany – without paying any agency fees.
A few months later, on 27 October 2025, she began her Anerkennungsjahr, which she is expected to complete in October 2026.
Today, Benitta works in the Stroke Unit at Universitätsmedizin Greifswald, where every day brings new responsibilities and new learning experiences.
It’s a demanding environment, but one that has helped her grow into a more confident and capable nurse.
The beginning, however, was far from smooth.
“The beginning is not easy. The language, the new system, the responsibility – everything feels overwhelming at first. Of course, I miss my family the most. There were moments when I felt tired and doubted myself, especially during the first months at work. But I reminded myself why I started this journey. Step by step, it became better.”
Benitta refused to let those moments define her.
“I reminded myself why I chose this path. Slowly, things started to make sense. I learned, I adapted, and I became stronger.”
Today, she sees the value of every step she took.
“It is absolutely worth going this way. Germany offers many opportunities, professional growth, and stability. My advice: be patient with yourself, never stop learning, and don’t be afraid to ask for help. Stay strong – it will pay off in the end.”
Benitta’s story is a testament to resilience – a reminder that even when the beginning feels overwhelming, perseverance can open doors to a life filled with purpose and possibility.

Ahana F. L. – Stepping Into a New Life With Courage and Purpose
Ahana’s path began at Thasiah College, where she completed her B.Sc. Nursing between 2018 and 2022.
She always dreamed of expanding her horizons and gaining international experience – a dream that took shape when she moved to Germany in June 2025, supported by a family friend.
Soon after arriving, she started her Anerkennungsjahr, which she is set to finish in June 2026.
Today, Ahana lives in Wiesbaden and works in the Geriatrics ward of a hospital, caring for elderly patients and learning the nuances of a new healthcare system.
But her transition was anything but effortless.
“Everything felt unfamiliar at first – the language, new environment, and different healthcare system. I miss my family the most. There were times when I felt stressed and thought about giving up.”
What helped her move forward was a combination of determination and the support she found around her.
“I reminded myself why I chose this path. I stayed patient, asked questions, and accepted that learning takes time. Many colleagues were incredibly supportive, and that made a huge difference.”
Looking back, she knows the challenges were worth it.
“You gain international exposure, professional development, and better career opportunities. If you stay committed and work hard, you will succeed.”
Ahana’s story is a reminder that growth often begins outside our comfort zone – and that with resilience and clarity, a new life in Germany can become a reality.

Pon Subash – A Story of Consistency, Courage, and the Power of Inspiration
At 25, Pon Subash has already built a life many young nurses dream of — but his journey began in an unexpected way.
Subash did not study at Thasiah College.
But through the German class coordinator, he met Mr. Thasiah, and that meeting became a turning point.
Mr. Thasiah shared his own story — how he once stood at the same crossroads, facing the same fears, the same uncertainty, and the same dream of building a life in Germany.
That conversation lit a spark in Subash.
He realized that success wasn’t about having the perfect path — it was about consistency, courage, and using every opportunity.
In 2025, Subash moved to Germany through an agency without paying any fees.
He began his Anerkennungsjahr in February 2025 and completed it successfully in October 2025 — a major milestone for any international nurse.
Today, he lives in Frankfurt, one of Germany’s most vibrant cities, and works in an Altenheim (elderly care home).
He is proud of the life he is building — step by step, day by day.
“My advice: be consistent. That’s what helped me reach Germany and build a new life here.”
His story is a reminder that sometimes, one conversation, one mentor, or one moment of encouragement can change the entire direction of a life.
And that with determination, the right guidance, and the courage to keep going, a future in Germany is within reach.

Bibin I.R. – A Story of Clarity, Courage, and a Life Transformed in Germany
At 27, Bibin stands in Berlin with a confidence he once only dreamed of.
His journey began in India, where he completed his Nursing studies from 2016 to 2020. Like many young nurses, he dreamed of a stable career, international experience, and a life built on independence and dignity.
In February 2025, he took the leap and moved to Germany through an agency — without paying a single rupee.
Shortly after arriving, he began his Anerkennungsjahr on 30 June 2025, a crucial step toward becoming a fully recognized nurse in Germany.
Today, Bibin lives in Berlin and works in an Altenheim (elderly care home), contributing his skills and compassion to a respected healthcare system.
His journey was shaped by a powerful moment:
During his language studies, Mr. Thasiah visited the academy to give a motivational speech.
Hearing how Mr. Thasiah once faced the same challenges — arriving in Germany, learning the language, adapting to a new world — gave Bibin the strength to believe in his own path.
But the transition wasn’t easy.
“Coming to a new country like Germany is not easy. The language, culture, weather, food, and work system are completely different. But if you are clear about your goal, this journey can change your life.”
There were moments of doubt.
Moments where everything felt overwhelming.
But Bibin refused to give up.
“I asked questions without shame. I accepted that mistakes are part of learning. I focused on long‑term goals, not daily struggles.”
When asked if it is worth to go this way:
“Yes. I work in a respected healthcare system. I earn independently. I gain international experience. I am building a stable future.”
Bibin’s story is a powerful reminder that clarity of purpose can carry you across continents — and that with courage, consistency, and the right support, a new life in Germany is absolutely possible.
