United Arab Emirates (UAE) has a significant expatriate population, with
recent estimates suggesting that expatriates made up over 80% of the country's
total population. Expats are individuals from various countries who come to the
UAE for work, business, and other purposes.
My daughter, Amanda Sheldon, first earned the “Expat” title in 2010 when she accepted a job in Kuwait, and helped to launch a popular North American brand in the Middle East.
Except two short return stays in Canada, Amanda continues to enjoy living and working overseas and lives full time in the United Arab Emirates.
I am on my way to Dubai in a few days to spend time with her and my grand dogs and thought this was the prefect time to share this wisdom for the first time on our podcast channel.
Have you ever daydreamed about living and working in another country?
Would you like to travel more and longer but money is a barrier?
Does your job tie you down and prevent you from seeing the world because you only have two weeks paid vacation?
Expat employment may be your ticket to travel the world!
Enjoy this interview (Part One of Three) candid conversations between Mother and Daughter, both #EncoreExplorers and get many of your questions answered!
