Description

Today's guest is a true nomad - Iliana, a Living Abroad Strategist, writer and scientist, born and raised in Bulgaria, and currently living in Chicago.

Iliana left life behind the Iron Curtain for adventure in the US just before the millennium and has since lived in five countries on three continents.

We talk about the transience of life, making friends all over the world, what it means to have a relationship with a country, and how to keep a glass-half-full attitude through the darker times.

To connect with Iliana, find her on Instagram, LinkedIn or via her websites, www.olivemaps.com, and www.iliana.us, where you'll find the writer's side of this free spirit.
