Why Expats Fail and Move Back Home
Living abroad can be a thrilling journey, but it's not without its challenges. How can you navigate cultural differences, language barriers, and the temptation to stick to old habits? How can you truly immerse yourself in a new environment living abroad without losing your sense of self?
In my 14 years of expat life and life abroad, I've learned some valuable lessons about flexibility, openness, and the importance of local connections. I've discovered that the key to a successful expat experience lies not just in surviving, but in thriving and making the most of the opportunities that come your way.
But how do you strike a balance between preparation and taking the plunge? How do you avoid the 'expat bubble' and truly engage with the local culture? And how do you navigate the fine line between holding onto your roots and embracing new habits after moving abroad and living overseas?
