The Black Expat Podcast aims to highlight the ups and downs of the expat experience. It touches on travel, current events, jobs, friendships, family, mental health and the overall expat experience. The goal is not only to provide others with information that I wasn't able to gain before my experiences, but also provide a space for expats worldwide to have their voices, stories, and experiences shared. We as people have far more in common than we think. Through interviews with other expats and people all over the world, I've learned of the many paths that may take when deciding whether or not to become expats. My hope is that The Black Expat Podcast reaches those seeking interesting stories and perspectives, good laughs, and information and knowledge presented in an entertaining way.

During the holidays being thousands of miles away from your family and loved ones can be difficult. While nothing can come close to replacing the holidays with family, a strong expat community, close friends, and special co-workers can help keep the holiday special and make it one for the ages. This podcast discuses how we made unique traditions while living abroad to help cope with being away for the holidays. If you like beaches, eggnog, and getting up close and personal with fireworks near the second tallest building in the world, an Expat holiday may be what you need.

As an Expat it's always the little things that airlines, hostels, hotels, and companies do that make the experience of travel that much better. For 2018 I want for myself and everyone to have and expect more. A resolution is good, but a challenge to be better in more ways than one can bring out greatness in everyone. My Expat wish list for 2018 focuses on the little things. What do you want more of?

The life of an expat certainly isn't easy. But when you grow up observing the relentless strength and ability to "make something out of nothing" from a strong black woman; you realize nothing is impossible. Have you ever stopped and really thought about why you're as awesome as you are? I mean really stopped and thought long and hard about all of the people that have had an impact on your life and helped shape you into the amazing person you are today? For me, that most influential person is my mother. And on her birthday it is my humble honor to share with you all how I am who I am, and have done what I have done because of, and for her.

Traveling is a big deal. Attempting to travel an entire continent is an equally big deal. When I announced on the previous podcast that I was going to venture through the continent of Africa, I left out some key concepts as to why this was important and the impact that I'm looking to make. Listen as I fill in those gaps and chase The Culture.
