Do they eat soup in England? Helen McClure

Are you an expat, thinking of becoming an expat, or have been an expat? This is not a book about how to be an expat, how to find schools, work, deal with rules and regulations. There are lots of those. This book is a comfortable pair of slippers, designed to be an expat's friend, understanding and legitimising feelings and concerns - a support crutch on your emotional journey. But it's a wonderful journey, and the opportunity to travel and create unique experiences, which often requires strength, open-mindedness and patience. Based on international expat case studies, survey results, personal experience, and wider research, this book is a ready-made personal support network, offering witty, and often sad or poignant, insights into this special community.
