#007: From Working In Water to Life In the Desert | Jared Dillet

Bahamian Jared Dillet traded a life on the water for a life in the sand when he relocated from his native Nassau to Beijing, on the edge of China's Gobi Desert, 4 years ago. You can't really ask for a more radical geographic change than what he and is wife have gone through, but as he says, they've been pleasantly surprised at how quickly they've taken to the expat life. Having made the conscious decision move to overseas when they did, essentially as part of a career change after at least a decade of working on or in the ocean in some capacity, is proof that it's never "too late" to become an expat. And, as happened with him, once you take the leap, you may be surprised at just how much your life experience may have prepared you for all of the changes that come your way once you land in your new "home."
