Living Abroad - 2 Lessons to Learn

Living abroad can be a rewarding and enriching experience, but it also requires patience and the ability to slow down. One major cultural difference between the USA and other countries is the fast-paced American culture versus the slower pace of life abroad. The pressure to perform and achieve financial success can also be more intense in the USA compared to other countries. Living in a foreign country can be challenging at times, but it also allows for personal growth and development. By learning to be patient and embracing a slower pace of life, expats can fully immerse themselves in their new culture and make the most of their time abroad. In this expat podcast living abroad episode of Not Your Average Globetrotter, we discuss the importance of learning to adapt to different cultural norms and the benefits of taking a more laid-back approach to life.
