Since 2011, BlogExpat.com has been a public voice for many expat bloggers through regular interviews published on the website. This book offers a small number of them that we have selected for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThose interviewed have become expats for a number of different reasons. Many are attracted by the idea of living in a foreign country. What is abroad? Is the grass greener elsewhere? How do people live there? What are their customs? How would I live in this country?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe imagine throughout the different stories that ties with family or friends are not as undermined as they might have been a while ago. Internet, Skype and social networks have reduced the distance between people. The long-distance disappears and kilometres are no longer an obstacle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese interviews are snapshots; they express opinions delivered at one time and they may have evolved later. Comments reflect the thoughts of their author at that moment, with their share of subjectivity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou must read this book as a photo album, allowing you to discover a world view, at a given angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AFNIL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47044158324976,"sku":"9791093013060","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9791093013060_p0.jpg?v=1764127477","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9791093013060","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
