The Road to Becoming An Expat

You know my story. Now I’m wondering about yours. Are you already an expat or thinking about becoming one? Do you, like me, wonder what expats experience when moving abroad? Are all experiences pretty much the same or do they widely differ? What makes for success — and what about failure.

I plan to further explore these issues in the future, but here are a few thoughts.

The Expat Path

From my own observations, most people in the U.S. seem fairly glued to their fast food restaurants and tv remote controls. Most of us can related to the necessity of earning a living and getting totally caught up in the daily grind of getting by. This is very understandable. Been there, done that. And heaven knows all we read about is how exhausted Americans are by nightfall. And then they can’t sleep!

So what has to happen —- what kind of intervention takes place — to set one on the expat path. What process begins that has someone heading off for the wild blue yonder —- in another country and culture. We read all the time how immigrants from other countries will take many great risks to get to the United States. They are willing to risk their lives to become expats here.

So why are U.S. citizens headed out the other way —– and making their way to live abroad. Is there something we don’t know? Is the grass always greener? It certainly makes one pause to think about it, contemplate and speculate.

Activating the Expat Factor

I myself like to muse that there is something, a spark within all of us —- that when activated, gets us going! Over mountains, across oceans and deserts — and even into outer space! Human beings are amazing in how once an idea is generated —– they pursue it so singlemindedly. And have chosen the expat life for thousands of years — as archeological discoveries constantly remind us!
