Publisher's summary

You’ve done your research, your gut’s telling you to go, and you’ve finally made your decision: you’re moving to a foreign country. It all sounds wonderful except for one, minor detail. You’re an introvert.

Now, the idea of living in a foreign country, speaking a foreign language, socializing with complete strangers (in another language!), and navigating all the cultural nuances of a new place are really freaking you out.

But whatever you do, do not refund your ticket. Instead, pick up this audiobook and realize that you’re going to be just fine.

In fact, it’s going to be better than that. You’re going to thrive as an introverted expat. But here’s the thing. It won’t happen overnight. You’re going to need some tips, tricks, and strategies. You’re also going to need a good understanding of who you are and what it really means to be an introvert.

And that’s what this audiobook covers, along with these key points:

  • What an introvert is and isn’t
  • Seven essential characteristics of an introvert
  • Why being an introvert is your biggest asset while living abroad
  • What to pack to create the best home, aka recharge station
  • How to identify your stressors and triggers before you leave
  • How to cope with isolation, loneliness, depression and overwhelm in your foreign country
  • Networking tips and more!

A transatlantic leap to Italy, where she’s spent the last two years learning Italian, attending University and eating with the locals at little trattorias.

A few helpful tips but a big over-reach

This book is more a saccharin Stuart Smiley self-help book than a book about being an introverted expat. There are very few tidbits of actionable information. Good audio quality and narration. Maybe worth it for the few tidbits, but I found myself fast-forwarding through 90% of the tedious and unqualified advice.

Great positive support for introverts

This is great and positive and mostly stays away from labels, as it keeps reminding you of the uniqueness of everyone.

The narrator has a very positive tone.

Great for all people with some introverted qualities, not just expats.
