#24 Why Your Second Move Abroad Can Still Surprise You

from Your Best Life Abroad · host Mary Martha Kipcak

If you've ever thought "I'm an experienced expat, this next move should be easy" or you're beating yourself up for struggling when you feel like you "should know better," this one's for you. We're getting real about why experience doesn't always equal easy, and why that's totally okay.I talk about:How I got completely humbled by Spanish Spanish (turns out 9 years of Chilean Spanish didn't prepare me for how fast these people talk!)Why I almost cried over a tiny kitchen and how your physical space affects your mental state way more than you thinkThe homesickness that hit me like a truck - because apparently being an "experienced expat" doesn't make you immune to missing homeHow perfectionism tried to convince me I was failing at something I should be "good at" by nowWhy every expat goes through the same emotional rollercoaster, no matter how many times you've done this dance before⁠🤝 Let’s connect!→ Book a free 1:1 chat: ⁠book a free chat here!⁠→ LinkedIn: ⁠Mary Martha Kipcak⁠
