Living Abroad: Challenging the Myths of Expat Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798704813699)

"LIVING ABROAD is a useful, honest, laugh-out-loud funny guide for anyone who's considering a move from the United States to a new country. The author's years of experience both as an expat and as a writer make for a book that is truthful, realistic, funny, and sensitive. Even though I'm not currently planning to move overseas (although now I'd seriously consider it ), .... truly a pleasure to read. " Elizabeth P., Elite Editor.Although good numbers are hard to calculate, reliable sources estimate that more than 3 million Americans each year decide to try living in another country. Most of them are not making a political statement; some move abroad for economic reasons, some to start a new life or "re-invent" themselves, and some are just seeking new experiences. In the wake of COVID-19 and contentious politics, that number is likely to increase. With over 200 published articles in the international travel/retirement field, three books about travel, and a dozen presentations at international retirement conferences on his resum , the author is uniquely qualified to bring you an unvarnished look at the challenges, pitfalls, and possible rewards of expat life. This is not a how-to book, or even a why-to. Instead it is an honest look at some of the questions and myths about living overseas, using entertaining and informative real-life examples to illustrate what is true and what is not so true. The goal is to provide the reader with the good and the bad - not to persuade you to become an expat or not - but to give you enough insight to decide what might be best for you.
