Customer Reviews

Great overview of things to consider and places to go

This book was very helpful in providing easy, organized information on various countries and what to consider in expatriating there. My only complaint is that many smaller countries (particularly in the Middle East)were not included but the book overall is invaluable.

All the info.

I spent a couple of weeks just skipping through different parts of this book, and I don't regret it. It's like cruising through a buffet of food that you really like. Then I sat down and read it cover to cover. I learned a lot, I appreciated the many web resources that it presented, and I am much more prepared for my future move. A good tool for those of us that love our country, deplore our government, and need the best chance at survival for us and our families.

Very well done.

This was an incredibly fun book to read. I agree with other reviewers - this book covers a lot without going too deep in any one thing. But it does contain several references to outside sources which have more information. It is as much a motivational book as a how-to. Also, I found some of the most useful information in here to be the many letters from people who had already made the jump and were living abroad.

Great place to Start

My boyfriend and I have been talking about moving out of the states, if just for a few years. I found this book to be very user friendly - it doesn't drag on with just the boring facts & it has a lot of real life examples from people who have moved out. It gives a ton of useful websites, and some information about each of the 50 countries that are most popular with expats. It was very enjoyable to read this book cover to cover.

Living in Another Country

This is a very fine book for anyone thinking about trying to live in another country. From Canada to France to Egypt to China, most of the world is covered. The book is full of little essays by people who have moved away and lived to tell about it ( a little humor there). The book gives suggestions on steps to take to get started, things to think about before making the move, How to stay (legally and not so legally) and the pluses and minuses of many countries around the world. It's an easy, interesting and quick read. A very good guide book and very informative!
