My Story

I’ve lived overseas for most of my adult life. My wife and I love it, but it comes with unique challenges of surviving and thriving. I didn’t take these challenges seriously until I moved overseas with my family, where crisis struck and I realized that my family was at risk because I hadn’t taken the time to prepared. I vowed never again, and The Prepared Expat was born.

What I found when I researched security and preparedness resources is that the vast majority are focused on people living in their home country and their solutions and suggestions were inadequate–or laughably inapplicable–for an ex-pat. I decided to create the resource that I wish I had: a website dedicated to the tools, knowledge, and skills you need to go and thrive overseas.

Whether its figuring how to make an international will, how to fly during COVID, or how to stay safe in a sketchy hotel, The Prepared Expat is for you. Subscribe and never miss a post!
