Last week we heard from Tiffany about her very first days living as an expat in Rome 17 years ago. Today, it's Katy's turn. She digs into the daily journal she kept back in the fall of 2013, when she moved to Rome with not only no ability to speak the language, but also no clear idea of what she would do there, or even who she would be. In this intimate mini-episode, hear from Katy's own experiences how moving abroad is not always rainbows and roses—especially not at first. The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron, the book Katy talks about on this episode. Hear about Tiffany's first days in Rome if you missed that mini-episode. **This episode was sponsored by SafetyWing, a fully remote team building a global safety net for digital nomads and travelers worldwide.

With NBA preseason officially underway we talk about the grind of fringe roster players. The mental and physical battle of fighting for a job in the NBA. Does it make more sense for a player who may spend more time in the G League to head overseas where the earning potential is higher? The leagues that exist overseas offer more than just earnings but opportunities to see a new world, add life experience and develop. Who you would choose to spend 24 hours with dead or alive? Family or celebrity how would you break down the day with that individual?

10/03/2021 Paul Bang Acts 13:1-13 English Standard Version Barnabas and Saul Sent Off 13 Now there were in the church at Antioch prophets and teachers, Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger,[a] Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a lifelong friend of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul. 2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 Then after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off. Barnabas and Saul on Cyprus 4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus. 5 When they arrived at Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had John to assist them. 6 When they had gone through the whole island as far as Paphos, they came upon a certain magician, a Jewish false prophet named Bar-Jesus. 7 He was with the proconsul, Sergius Paulus, a man of intelligence, who summoned Barnabas and Saul and sought to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the magician (for that is the meaning of his name) opposed them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith. 9 But Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, looked intently at him 10 and said, “You son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, full of all deceit and villainy, will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand. 12 Then the proconsul believed, when he saw what had occurred, for he was astonished at the teaching of the Lord. Paul and Barnabas at Antioch in Pisidia 13 Now Paul and his companions set sail from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem,

Valley Cooperative Association account manager Kate Farrell says flour, oil and sugar has been affected by droughts and extreme temperatures. This will raise the cost of those goods. She says agribusiness customers may increase the costs of their apple cider donuts, for example, to avoid absorbing those increased costs of goods. Wisconsin is No. 1 in the nation for cranberry production, providing half of the world's cranberry supply, says the 74th Alice in Dairyland Julia Nunes. Nunes spends the month of September and into October touting the state's reputation as a cranberry powerhouse with 250 growers and more than 21,000 acres of land. The red fruit brings in over $1 billion in economic activity to Wisconsin. ever.ag broker Mike North says Chinese ports, due to COVID-19 outbreaks, went back to diminished capacities. So container ships and vessels have begun to stack up. This is also slowing down product going into China, rippling back to the U.S. and causing pileups in ports in southern California -- which primarily supports exports to southeast Asia. This is concerning for dairy, he says.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tiffany and Katy dig into their mail bag and pull out a letter from Tyler, who had been just about to move abroad when the pandemic hit. As he waits and waits (and waits) for things to go back to "normal," he feels time (and perhaps his expat dreams as well) slipping away. He writes to ask what we think he should do—should he throw caution to the wind and go ahead with his plans, or continue to keep his dreams on hold. As you might have guessed, Katy and Tiffany have VERY different opinions on what he should do. Listen in to hear them get into it. ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.

Three weeks ago, the nation's 13 worst performing super funds were revealed. On the list, was an industry fund most Australians would not have heard of called the “Energy Industries Superannuation Scheme”. It currently holds $6 billion of retirement savings on behalf of about 20,000 largely blue-collar workers in the electrical industry. It is also now the subject of serious allegations – revealed exclusively in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald – that member funds have been misspent on lavish Christmas parties, overseas junkets for senior management and a series of questionable sponsorship deals of local community and sporting clubs. Today on Please Explain, business reporter Charlotte Grieve joins Jess Irvine to discuss.

The leaders of China and the US - Xi Jinping and Joe Biden - have announced new commitments to tackle climate change at the UN General Assembly. Also: there are further signs that the conflict in Ethiopia's Tigray region is spreading to neighbouring areas, and why was an athlete disqualified after running a half-marathon in England?

At the United Nations, President Biden is trying to make the case that “America is back.” But the world may be skeptical, given the U.S.' dust-up with France over a nuclear submarine deal, the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal, and COVID-19 surge.  Johnson & Johnson has released new research showing that a second dose of its vaccine increases protection against COVID-19. What does this mean for Americans wanting booster shots? LA and Long Beach ports are clogged, and most crews have to wait more than a week before they can dock their ships, so all the goods they're carrying are in short supply on land.

During the past four elections -- two presidential elections and two general elections -- the average expat turnout was as low as 5 percent. Expats cite the low number of polling stations as one reason and are demanding a postal voting system. *turnout: 투표율, 투표자수, 매출 (숫자와 관련한 결과)*cite~: ~를 인용하다, ~를 이유로 들다 [4] Yun Ho-joong, floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, said at a parliamentary meeting Sept. 7, “Reports of expat voters and absenteeism will begin on Oct. 10 to prepare a list of presidential electors.

New Zealanders overseas trying to book a coveted spot in MIQ are still rolling the dice - just under a different system. A new MIQ voucher system made its debut today, allocating more than 3,000 rooms through randomised 'virtual lobby' lottery. The revamped booking system is supposed to be fairer, but as our political reporter Anneke Smith reports, there were tears of both happiness and heartbreak today.

When you've lived abroad for 17 years, going "back home" can sometimes feel like going to a completely foreign country. Things that were once normal feel odd. You find you're no longer used to the way things are done in your former home. And sometimes, you realize that things have changed so much since you last visited, that it doesn't even seem like the country where you grew up anymore. On the heels of Tiffany's recent trip to the US—after over two years away—she comments on the things that surprised her, unsettled her, and baffled her. She also shares her thoughts on the prospect of moving back to the States one day. ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.

Today, I will talk about a few interesting things: Lessons learned from working with an overseas assistant; and some thoughts on developing personal self-reliance when life feels too busy to get anything done. Stump the Sauce From Jenni: How do I deal with self-reliance overwhelm? How do you deal with self-reliance overwhelm?  I'm making a list of skills I want to learn, but I get overwhelmed every time I visit it. What's the most important? What's something I actually want to learn? How much should I invest when I don't know if it suits my long term goals?  The evaluation process just leaves me with more questions, but the biggest is in becoming self reliant on my own... How do I find the time to do it all by myself?   I understand time management and prioritizing but I'm also a single parent with other responsibilities and challenges.  Thanks for any input Definition:  Self Reliant Self Sufficient Thoughts on Resilient Lifestyle Design Resources TSP Episode on Self Reliance and Self Sufficiency http://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/1666-self-reliance-and-sufficiency Self-Reliance Festival in Camden, TN on October 23, 2021 Main topic of the Show:  4 Things I Have Learned in Working With an Overseas Assistant The background: Why I chose an overseas assistant The Four Things: Choose the right one (You may go through several) - my shortcut Most challenges are my fault (culture, poor planning, time management) Improve Email Skills (All the things in one email) Upfront Time Investment in Process Yields Long-Term Time Savings Membership Plug Make it a great week!

After her month-long mega-trip to the States in August, Tiffany regales our listeners with the adventures (and many mis-adventures) of the international travel aspect of the trip. What kind of documentation do you need to get on an international flight? How difficult is it for a non-American citizen to get into the US under the current Covid regulations? What are the crowds like, and what's it like to have to wear a mask for an entire 14-hour flight? And what giant wrench was thrown into her plans that resulted in an unexpected morning spent in Brooklyn, New York? Also, how is international travel like motherhood? Tiffany answers these and many other questions on the very first episode of brand-new Season Nine. ------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.

As the chaotic flames of war continue to engulf Kabul, endangering the thousands of American citizens stranded behind enemy lines there, Charlie was on the frontlines of the latest war raging here at home. More specifically, he recaps how he and his wife, Erika, took the fight to the lawless tyrants at the Scottsdale Unified School District who are mandating masks on students of all ages in the heart of Arizona's most conservative city. After encouraging every red-blooded American patriot to do the same and stand up for the kids of this nation, he covers the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan where new reports claim there are 23 California High School students stranded and the Biden Regime has no plans to help them. He also talks about the battle to recall Gavin Newsom and gives an update on Larry Elder's increasingly real shot at becoming California's next governor—no matter how hard the activist media tries to smear him out contention. All of that, PLUS: Herschel Walker is running once more in Georgia, in a bit of a different context than before, and an in-depth look at the real cost of Biden's Bungled Withdrawal thanks to a comprehensive report published on OpenTheBooks.Com Support the show: http://www.charliekirk.com/support See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
