Moving Countries 101
Whether you’re moving for work, love, or lifestyle, one truth remains: relocating is about more than the destination. Host Clare Kay leads you on a quest to create a life abroad: the paradox of arriving in a new destination, yet discovering the real journey is the ongoing experience of making another country home.
Clare is your essential guide to navigating the complexities of moving countries and realising the benefits of a new lifestyle. Drawing on her extensive international experience, Clare helps you uncover both the dreams and the realities of relocation, from the logistics of settling in to the emotional and cultural shifts that shape daily life.
Through authentic guest stories and Clare’s solo observations, you’ll gain practical guidance and fresh perspectives to prepare you mentally and emotionally for life abroad. You’ll hear from global movers who have relocated for jobs, relationships, family, or lifestyle, and learn how they handled the challenges and opened up to the opportunities.
Their stories illustrate how moving unsettles us emotionally, physically, culturally, and spiritually, but each conversation shows how moving countries provokes growth, awareness, and possibilities.
🎧 Tune in for revealing insights, heartfelt reflections, and uplifting moments that inspire confidence, connection, and clarity as you create a fulfilling life abroad.

In this episode, Clare is joined by Gabriella Kovac who is Hungarian and who has been living in County Limerick, Ireland for 14 years, with her family. Gabriella provides some great insights into settling into and giving birth in a new country, raising bilingual children, and why living thousands of miles away from your family does not always result in seeing less of them.
Gabriella also explains why they only plan for 2 to 3 years, why they are thinking of moving to Spain soon, and how one of her husbands´s childhood toy memories has inspired a new business venture.
