Finding a sense of purpose – abroad

Relocating to a new country forces you to step out of your comfort zone. Settling in and building your support network requires a good amount of energy, patience and confidence – before you find yourself at ease with things and how your daily life takes shape. In many ways it is super scary, yet, moving to a new country is a unique opportunity to reinvent yourself and take charge of a new development path. It is a unique chance to reboot your personal eco-system. To find your ‘why’.. Whether you are in a new place by choice, by relationship or coincidence – nothing beats the feeling of having an abundance of opportunities ahead of you once you hit the ground. And nothing beats the frustration when feeling lost in it all and you are just longing back to a clear framework for your (work) life.
