Description
Imagine handing over your passport in Saudi Arabia, being sent away with the 'women and children' in an evacuated from Congo, catching a ride on the back of a stranger's motorcycle in China, getting closer than you ever thought with your Italian mother- in-law, learning Arabic in a Syrian mosque, finding yourself at a dinner party with your husband's colleague and his multiple wives, or using your second language to teach another grown woman to use a tampon.Life abroad is an adventure. It can be both exhilarating and terrifying, and sometimes there seems to be no middle ground. One things is for sure, living in a country other than your own is anything but ordinary!These pages are filled with stories from woman who have shared the highs and lows of living abroad. The feelings are strong and real on these pages; covering love, loss, friendship and lessons learned across the continents.
