Questions & Comments Expats are Tired of Hearing
If you're an expat, you've probably heard these questions and comments a million times: "You must be lucky to live abroad," "How's the food?", "Do you speak the language?", "You could make more money back home," and "Don't you miss your country?" While these comments may be well-intentioned, they can become tiring and frustrating to hear repeatedly.
In this video, we're tackling these common questions and comments head-on. We'll share our candid thoughts and experiences on why these comments can be exhausting for expats to hear, as well as some tips on how to respond to them gracefully.
We'll also be exploring the deeper meaning behind some of these comments, such as the cultural assumptions that underlie questions about food and language proficiency. We'll also discuss the emotional toll that comments about homesickness and loyalty to one's country can have on expats.
Whether you're an expat yourself or simply curious about the expat experience, this video is for you. We hope to shed some light on the challenges and joys of living abroad, as well as provide some practical advice for navigating common questions and comments.
Don't forget to like and subscribe to our channel for more videos on the expat experience, and let us know in the comments below what other topics you'd like us to cover. Thanks for watching!
