Living abroad takes the many benefits of travel to a whole new level. But there’s much so more to the expat lifestyle than posting a sweet Instagram photo.
Living abroad is one of the best life experiences you can have. In this two-part episode, I list the Top Ten Things I Love About Living Abroad (and think you’ll love, too!).
Living abroad helps you give less f*cks while boosting your sense of self-confidence, strengthening your resilience, and providing a more open-minded perspective of the world.
If you’re curious about what it’s really like to live abroad or if you just want to hear from a fellow expat who relates to you, this episode will provide the insights and real talk you’re looking for.
Throughout, I share stories and examples of how travel has helped me gain a broader perspective, taught me valuable lessons, and expanded my mind (along with my network of friends).
TOPICS DISCUSSED/WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- How travel unlocks and stimulates your senses
- Why you become more present and mindful when experiencing a new place
- Endless options for fun + Seeing every part of life as an adventure
