Have you ever wondered what it really be like to move to a foreign country? In this episode, I speak with Kaitlin Wichmann who did exactly that! Kaitlin was born in the US and has lived in a few different countries, and she now calls Portugal home. We talk about why she made the move, her expectations versus the realities of expat life, things she has learned along the way, and if she will ever move back home.
