An ExPat Connection

By Patricia

Hello Everyone,

This post has been inspired by someone I’ve just met via social networking through a wonderful group called Ladies Who Launch. Her name is Kelly and we met via a post I made on one of the Ladies Who Launch groups.

As you may know, Joe and I are going to South America at the end of December. While I have traveled a lot I have only been to South America once and Joe has never been. Our plan is roughly this:

Arrive in Buenos Aires December 15th and use BA as a base to discover BA, surrounding suburbs as well as Uruguay. We then head to Mendoza for Christmas and hopefully lots of wonderful wine. After a few days in Mendoza we’re off to Santiago then back to Canada. I’ll write about the trip of course when I get back.

Anyway, back to connecting with Kelly. I posted a request for suggestions on our trip nd Kelly replied. I read through her profile and was really interested as we do have some similarities in that both of us have been expats and teachers and of course share a passion for travel.

Kelly has a blog – Global Roam – which has sections for teachers as well as posts about travel and one in particular struck me as interesting. It is a post about a book “The Geography of Bliss”. I was really intrigued by this book as it somehow speaks to me and my search for happiness in a distant land.

Check out her post where she talks about the book and the expat life.

Cheers
Patricia
