H&Dee Abroad - We're Moving Abroad...But Don't Know Where!11 Sep 202301:58:55

Enjoy this Bonus episode of my conversation with Herman and Dee on the Blaxit Global YouTube channel.

Herman and Dee (@handdeeabroad) are a couple of empty nesters who are planning to move abroad. They've been married for 25 years and have two grown children who are now living on their own. They've always dreamed of living in a different country, and now that their kids are gone, they feel like it's the perfect time to make the move.

But Herman and Dee have a problem: they can't decide where to move! They've been doing a lot of research, but there are so many great countries out there, that it's hard to choose just one. They're looking for a place that's affordable, has a good climate, and is friendly to foreigners. They're also interested in a place with a rich culture and history.

Herman and Dee will share their story and their journey to finding the perfect place to call home. They'll talk about the factors they're considering when making their decision, and they'll give you some tips on how to choose the right country for you.

If you're thinking about moving abroad, this conversation is for you!

Natalie Wester: Mid-life Reimagined in Lourinhã24 Apr 202300:55:51

I'm so happy to share this episode of the Blaxit Global podcast. In this episode, I reunite with Natalie Wester who was featured in the Condé Nast article I wrote, How to Retire in Portugal: A Complete Guide, and our popular Moving Abroad Over 50 panel on our YouTube channel.

Natalie  Wester is a former second-grade teacher and National State Teacher of the Year who retired from teaching as a second career at 59. A radical reinventor, permission-giver, and storyteller, she encourages midlife women to give themselves permission to change the life they're living so they can live a life they love.

By 60 she became a solo around-the-world traveler and recovering social media avoider. At 61, she launched The Hot Goddess blog for midlife women and started a "blackboard to bourbon" journey by developing a Midlife Reimagined Apprenticeship and becoming a whiskey distillery intern. At 62, she became an expat and now calls Lourinhã, Portugal home.

Thea Duncan: Making it in Milan

Thea Duncan is the Founder of Doing Italy, an online training company that helps people gain the knowledge they need to move to Italy with ease while avoiding many of the pitfalls that negatively affect other expats when moving abroad. 

Trinidad and Tobago-born, and Miami-raised, Duncan spent much of her life traveling the globe, before Italy captured her heart. She studied for her master’s degree at Milan’s Bocconi University in the early 2000s, later holding roles with some of Italy’s most storied fashion and design houses – including Gucci and Luxottica. 

Doing Italy, which began as Duncan’s effort to connect with travelers and curate her Milan, now offers the opportunity to get an even more authentic understanding of Italian culture by helping them move abroad. The company offers 1:1 sessions and group coaching where students dive into just about everything a foreigner should know about moving to Italy. This includes insights into the Italian job market, to why, if an Italian home announcement says an apartment is unfurnished, it most likely means you literally need to bring your own kitchen sink.
