Description

This week’s podcast episode had us discussing things we thought we would miss when we moved abroad but surprisingly we don’t miss much at all!

When you are making a choice to leave the home you’ve known, it can feel daunting to think about these kinds of comforts that you fear missing- a home you and your partner built, your favorite bourbon or even the car-centric lifestyle you’ve always been used to…

But honestly, we’ve realized that a simple, peaceful life here makes those things seem so insignificant after our move abroad to Portugal 16 months ago now.

So lean in - and know that some things are worth missing and sometimes are the very thing you give up for a better life abroad.
