My family and I have been traveling for nearly 10 years now (it will be 10 years this June). We have been to 29 countries in this time and have navigated the various systems for immigration, residency, and traveling with pets in many countries. We’ve dealt with real estate, landlords, utilities, banking, cell phone and internet service providers, transportation, government agencies, and so much more.
I have also spent most of this time trying to get my friends to leave the USA because I knew what was coming would be dangerous. I think that time is now.
Everyone has their own reasons for wanting a better life. Some go for job opportunities. Others move for family. Some move for safety. Whatever your reason, if you are genuinely ready to make the leap to leave the USA, I can help you.
I had friends try to tell me 5 years ago that I should offer this type of service, and I dismissed it. It’s so complicated and frustrating and more importantly, I need to deal with people who are committed. It is difficult enough dealing with the hoops and curveballs that countries can throw at you without also having to deal with people who aren’t committed to taking action and doing the work.
I left for many reasons. I left before Trump was ever elected the first time, so my reasons had nothing to do with who was President. I saw my country becoming more and more dangerous as the years went on. I spent decades navigating all manner of systems and seeing the cracks in the veneer. I saw the attitudes and the callousness. More importantly, I wanted safety for my children. That was #1 for me. I committed my efforts to helping my country and to those who were also helping to make the country a better place. I did this remotely so that I could maintain my sanity, while helping those who were in the trenches dealing with the tragedies first-hand. I had already been doing it while stateside, but it truly took a toll on my health.
I can honestly tell you that it took about 3 years after leaving the USA to recover from all of the traumas I had endured there. Not being hypervigilant. Not panicking over everything. It was honestly shocking to see my own responses when in contrast to other countries who were simply calm and confused why I would have such a response. Unlearning that trauma response took a long time and it also helped me to realize how damaging my experience in my own country had truly been.
Now, I put peace above all else. I eat healthy food and have affordable access to healthcare whenever I need it. I have safety everywhere I’ve gone. I’ve met so much kindness and people who were so eager to assist me when navigating so many new places and systems. I learned a lot of things that surprised me and some even shocked me. There is so much to learn and know and I know the biggest concern most people have before taking such a leap is the unknown. It’s scary to jump off the cliff. I get it.
After much contemplation, I have decided to offer a small opening for a very limited number of people who are seriously interested in getting assistance to move abroad. If this is you, please schedule a call at the link below. There is a consultation fee of $200 for the call as there will be much discussed. If after the call, you wish to pursue moving, I can provide a customized plan and personal assistance for your move.
Once you have scheduled your call and made your payment, please complete the questionnaire that will be emailed to you. This must be completed before your scheduled call. Please be as thorough as you can so that we can use your consultation time wisely. If you know someone else who might need these services, please feel free to share this article with them.
