  • Summary

  • Moving overseas in your 20s is a dream a lot of us have. But how do you make it a reality? The Expat Diaries is the podcast for people in their 20s who are wanting to move overseas and live the expat life but need some help to make it happen.


    Join me, Ruby, a 26-year-old Aussie gal who has recently moved to Portugal, as I share my first-hand advice and experience of moving overseas for the first time.


    Tune in every second Tuesday to learn all about the process of moving overseas, hear some fun travel stories and find out how “finding myself” in Europe is going.

    Moving overseas can be such an incredible experience. You have the opportunity to make new friends, explore new places and have amazing adventures. But there are a lot of things that people won’t tell you about moving overseas. That's not to say that these things should stop you from doing it, but they’re just things I wish I’d known before making the move.
