Raves and accolades for Jim Santos, I love his writing and the way he tells his story. As he talks about the way people may see their past choices, he relates, “it is only looking back through the milky lens of memory that we imagine we see a pattern.” Imaginative and real, the book answers the questions you don’t even know you have yet and it does it in a way that makes casual reading a joy – not a chore.
Authentic and honest, Santos spins a web of experience into a useful guide. It gave me the courage to begin planning! The first chapter is titled ‘Anyone Can Do It,’ and this writing makes that believable. Cautions are made clear as culture shock, uprooting your life, and what it is to actually live in a foreign country are all explored. Delightful, interesting, and emotional personal accounts step the reader into what one must be prepared for. The book is neither persuasive or evasive. It simply lays out the truths and leaves the reader to consider the options.
“Living Abroad: Challenging The Myths of Expat Life,” gets my votes!
