How will you cope with no-one giving a flying fig about your expat life when you’re home for the holidays or repatriating? Kirsty and Nikki discuss why expats are hurt by friends and family that appear disinterested in their expat lives. Is it time to accept that you’re really not that special? 

How will you deal with newcomers writing you off when they hear that you’re leaving? And how will you keep yourself open to making new friends even though you know you’re at the end of your expat gig? 

Kirsty’s favourite things:

The Flatshare

Mathew Perry’s autobiography

Cherry Cherry Yum Yum (NYT’s food)

Nikki’s favourite things:

Treason BBC

The Recruit 

Turning on the subtitles to listen to the lyrics in films (Nikki swears you’ll be amazed)
