Differences in a Short-Term Move Abroad vs a Long-Term Life Abroad
When you make your first move abroad, usually it's with a short-term mindset. You’re there for 6 months or a year, ready to make the most of your time and with plans for a return home.
But then all of the sudden you are there for years? How does your mindset over your move and life abroad change?
This episode of Packing Up & Peacing Out, Taylor and Lili talk about the difference in mindset and logistics when you are moving for a more short-term period versus indefinitely with intention to stay. Lili has done both, Taylor has always had a more long-term mindset, we learn from each other's perspective!

Choosing Happiness in Copenhagen Over American Prosperity with Lindsay Tigar
Would you move to Denmark if it meant a 30% pay cut but you get affordable childcare and walkable cities?
In this episode we investigate that very question with award-winning storyteller Lindsay Tigar who made the decision to move to Copenhagen with her young family.
We dig into:
Meeting her Danish husband on Tinder and how their relationship unfolded
Having young children in the US and how difficult it is to raise children in the US
Why she chose to move to Copenhagen after buying a hose in American suburbia
How difficult the transition has been to life abroad in Copenhagen

Move Abroad Hot Takes: Worst Parts of Living Abroad
Living abroad is AMAZING until it just… isn’t! Some parts just straight up suckkkk and we have things we don’t like.
So we did a whole episode on our HOT TAKES on the worst parts of living abroad.
Now these aren’t our actual biggest issues with moving abroad like missing family, career issues, visa stress… they are more our pet peeves with being an expat/immigrant. We get a bit cheeky and complain about the WORST parts of our lives as Americans abroad.
