The Not Your Average Globetrotter project is an expat podcast for people who want to become an expat or are already expats who are interested in living abroad, moving abroad, “expat life”, and especially for those interested in living in Italy. Because moving abroad (including moving to Italy & moving to Portugal) can be quite the undertaking, ‘NYAG’ was created to share information and experiences in hopes of helping people to avoid a potentially difficult transition into life abroad as an expatriate regardless of where they move.

How I See The US After 8 Years in Europe

After more than 16 years living abroad, with the last 8 years living in Europe, the differences between life in the U.S. and life in Europe have continued to become even more blatantly obvious while watching a shifting landscape back in the U.S. In this week's expat podcast episode of Not Your Average Globetrotter, hosted by Rafael Di Furia, we’ll get into everything from moving abroad and expat life in Italy and Portugal, to how living in Europe compares to American consumerism, cultural shifts, cost of living, healthcare, travel, and day-to-day life.
