Lots of changes in my life, I become more friendly, more self dependent and more self reliant.

When in UK my favourite saying was " I really don't do people" since moving to Bahrain I have a wide circle of friends and have a gathering at our place every other weekend with a minimum of 20 people turning up.

Being an expat has been the making of me. Taught me so much and made me a much happier person.

It taught me understanding and tolerance of others.
It taught me to be independent and how to survive in places and difficult circumstances.

Life changes totally; in my case for the better.

I am the foreigner now.

Well Fred, you can't denied it, can聽 you???

That is number one.
So many people go to a new country but can't see past their old one.
My country is so much better because.....
They don't do that rubbish in my country
This place is a dump and that sort of stuff would never be allowed to happen in my country.

I say this to those who can't get the fact, they are the foreigner, "you decided to live abroad, commonly for a fat sack of cash and/or as many women as your tongue could handle, so get used to it or bugger off".

Of course, I've never been accused of being subtle.

The biggest changes were to my address and phone number.聽 They're not even close to what they used to be.

definitely more friends, addapting the new environment, tradition and life comparison.........

Environment, definitely.聽 It's hotter than hockey sticks around here.

lots o changing in my life, freedom inside, independent woman and spiritually ,,reaching at firts the real joy ..the one inside of me te real peace

Moving from the developed world to the third world was a very interesting experience.

I moved from a gated community in the US to the jungles of Belize.

There is no good shopping in Belize not much selection, unless you want weed. There is tons of that here.

I had to learn patience and keep my cool when things did not quite go as planned.聽

I had to adjust culturally and learn to take things as they come.

I have always loved animals and nature. The jungle killed any notion that I ever had about nature being friendly. Nature is a 24 hour murder machine in the middle of life occurring all around me. Crazy stuff this world.

All of the changes for me were dramatic experiences for me. However I am a better person for adapting and changing.

Pretty cool.

All of my day are really different...^^

but like other, i learn may things, see many things and get a new view of live actually ^^

Still try to adjusting my self but... spiritually i'm very satisfied because this is one of my dream. ^^

I like the weather here than at home, I dont pay my electric bills and water bills

wow !! that's amazing!! where are u??

Hi, I'm currently living in Coos Bay, Oregon and want to talk to someone who was from United States and is living in British Columbia now.聽 Hope I'm not bothering you.聽 You said being an expat made you feel more dependent.聽 I would think so.聽 But also more free.聽 Can you be both?
聽 Also, would you recommend it for a couple who are in their 60's?

Typo.

It is both actually.

I am the most spiritual agnostic I know.

Pretty cool is what I meant.

Was that on purpose or a typo?聽 I can see it going either way.

The changes in life when becoming an expat...for me, it taught me to have a much broader mind set of the world! Another important one, is to be very self dependable to get any thing done..
