Format:Paperback
A must-have on the bookshelf of any future or current expatriate. With wisdom, insight, experience, and brimming with optimism, it covers all the bases from the practical to the emotional of moving and thriving abroad. You can't go wrong as this "Dr. Spock for Expatriates" steers you through all the important decisions you will need to make and helps you consider things you might otherwise overlook. I especially liked the sections on children, culture shock, and spouses. One feature of this book that I particularly enjoyed was that it was loaded with relevant anecdotes from expatriates from all over the world living in all sorts of countries.

This book is very basic and general, so would only be helpful if you are quite open to where you may re-locate to. It didn't really tell me anything I didn't all ready know, so I'd save your money and buy an area specific book from the Explorer range.

Melissa Brayer Hess and Patricia Linderman's indispensable book covers all the practical aspects of adjusting to life in a foreign country. They pay particular attention to factors that can help or hinder an expatriot's adjustment. Every chapter includes short, personal sidebars recounting the experiences of those who've lived and worked abroad, an addition which brings the book to life with insightful, useful and often hilarious detail. We recommend this book to anyone who is considering relocation to another country. To be at home anywhere on the globe, supplement it with a couple of books about the specific country where you are going. Pay attention to the advice about planning ahead, then get your shots, tuck your passport in your pocket and head for the airport. (Don't forget to pack this book; you may need it for re-entry.)
