Episode Details

Moving abroad isn’t just about chasing the views or sipping cappuccinos on cobblestone streets — it’s about finding your people too. Because spoiler alert: you’re gonna need more than Instagram-worthy mountains when real life hits.

In today’s episode, I’m diving into one of the hardest (and most important) parts of expat life: building your community abroad.

I’ll walk you through:

• Why finding a tribe matters more than you think (even if you swear you're a loner)
• How to make friends as an adult without feeling super awkward
• Where to actually find other humans — both locals and fellow immigrants
• Why your partner can't be your only social life (seriously, save yourselves)
• Real tips to get yourself out there — even if you're an introvert like me

If you’re feeling a little lost, homesick, or like you're ready to meet someone (anyone) who gets it, this one's for you. Grab your coffee, and let's talk about how to build your life abroad with real friendships, real support, and real connection.
