Staying Connected with Other Expats

Post new topic

Hi everyone!

I am originally from Italy, and live in UK yes, I know what you are thinking of I survived through the UK/EU divorce so I am stronger then I think.  Expats are very strong and brave never that is my mantra.

I am a survivor over and over again. 

I wanted to ask you what is your strategy to go thorough our fast changing times?

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

My strategy is I work for today, plan for tomorrow and don't worry about the past (you can't change it).  Then, be nice to other people; there is no prize for not being nice.

Hi Cynic, You sound smart!  What do you mean by UK/Netherlands expert?

Hi again.

I don't know about smart, probably better to say that I've been around a long time and have made all the mistakes already. :top:

The UK/Netherlands thing means I work for the Forum (as a volunteer) and they are the 2 countries where I know quite a bit about things that relate to Expats.  You don't have to agree with me.

I am also not smart and I am not an Expert for any country here but a DE for a couple of places on TripAdvisor, so a bit smart only.

My philosophy not just for now but always has been to move with the times. I believe anything is possible. You should be prepared to change direction at all times career-wise even though this may mean re-educating or relocating anywhere in the world. A change will often lead to better things. I believe anyone can work for themselves.

Above all, I have always believed that since we only have one life that we should live it to the fullest. I sometimes pity my friends who have lived and worked their entire life in the UK with only occasional holidays abroad. For me, living abroad is like being on holiday 24/7.
