I’m a writer and expat, so much of my published work (but certainly not all) tends to be on expat issues.
[BTW, all info pertaining to the Turning Points book I co-authored is under a separate tab.]
What follows is a list with links to most of my work on a variety of online and print media: radio interviews, non-fiction expat articles, expat book reviews, my guest posts at other expat blogs and some very cool awards & recognition.
