Expats and Isolation

This episode is dedicated to everyone who is feeling isolated right now – expat or not.

I’ve been hearing from many expats recently that this topic - isolation - is particularly poignant right now. And this goes for recent repats, and non-expats too, of course.

When you move overseas, you’re expecting a fabulous new life. Moving overseas is exciting. It heralds great change; perhaps the hope of a better future. To most families it represents a new start in their lives both professionally and personally.

But it’s quite often that you’ll hit a period of feeling isolated and lonely as hell. Of course, now, in 2020, the isolation is even more pronounced.

This sense of isolation, loneliness and boredom is a common problem – even outside of COVID.
