Thank you all for the amazing questions regarding the REALITIES of the nomad or expat lifestyle. Let’s get right into it.
In this episode I give advice on the following:
- How do you find meaningful friends and connections especially with language and cultural barriers?
- Why learning the language of your new location IS a non-negotiable for overall happiness and a sense of belonging.
- My tips on getting out of the traveler scene and develop more local connections.
- The struggles you may face while moving your life abroad or cross country. Not here to pretend it’s all sunshine and rainbows!
- Embracing the discomfort that comes with living this lifestyle: stressful mistakes when traveling, body reactions to new locations, heartbreak and other disappointments, etc.
- The benefits and blessings of getting through all of the previously mentioned challenges.
- Preparing for unforeseen emergencies back at home: illness and death of loved ones.
- How long it took me to find deep soul connections and a sense of belonging in my new home (Guatemala). It doesn’t happen overnight!
- Benefits of getting involved in a long term volunteering project in your new location!
