In this episode of the 10 Adventures Podcast, we sit down with James Balagot, author of "Beyond the American Dream," to explore his family's daring move from the Bay Area to Berlin and eventually Hong Kong. James shares insights from their journey, revealing the challenges and unexpected joys of embracing the expat lifestyle. We dive into the motivations behind leaving the familiar for the unknown, inspired by the desire to create meaningful moments and avoid the trap of the conventional American dream.
James discusses the pivotal role of the annual life visualization exercise in shaping their decisions and the profound impact of recognizing the finite nature of time. He also opens up about the practicalities of such a move, from navigating international schools to downsizing their possessions. Join us as we uncover the highs and lows of living abroad and the lasting memories forged along the way.
