Embracing the Expat Life: Lessons from Nine Years Abroad

How Change, Experiences, and Finding Home Transformed My Journey

Nine years ago, I left America for love and embarked on an incredible journey.

Here are three lessons I’ve learned along the way:

Embrace Change

Moving from the familiar to the unknown has been a journey of growth and self-discovery. Each new place, from London to Copenhagen, has taught me to adapt and thrive in different environments.

Experiences Over Things

Traveling and living abroad have shown me that the memories we create and the experiences we gather are far more valuable than material possessions. Moments like watching my daughters grow up, experiencing new cultures, and exploring new places together are priceless.

Home Is Where You Make It

Whether it was London, Copenhagen, or now preparing for Qatar, I've learned that home isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling. It’s where you create memories, build connections, and find your peace.

As I pack for my next adventure to Qatar, I’m excited about the new experiences and lessons that await me.

Here’s to embracing change, cherishing experiences, and finding a home wherever life takes you.
