About this episode

Want to move abroad but have no idea how to support yourself when you get there? For this mini-episode, we are joined by David McNeill, creator of Expat Empire, a consulting service for aspiring expats, and host of the Expat Empire podcast (check out this recent episode in which he interviews Tiffany).

From finding a local job in the country you are moving to, to getting a transfer through the company you already work for, from opening your own business to becoming a digital nomad, David shares all his tips on how to support yourself on your expat journey.

Find David on Instagram here and here, on Facebook here or here, and on Twitter.
