Live and Work Abroad (Vacation Work)
Ref: VW030
Working in a foreign country is becoming commonplace; every year teachers, business people, artisans, professionals, entrepreneurs, diplomats and executives set off to work abroad; too often they are unaware of the pitfalls that lie ahead.
Whether they go by choice or are posted, whether they go alone or with partners and children, the experience can prove richly rewarding or a disaster. Preparation and awareness are the keys to making such a move a success.
Authors Huw Francis and Michelyne Callan are themselves inveterate travellers having lived and worked in the UK, Canada, Hong Kong and now Turkey and they cover in professional detail all the issues that need to be faced: making the decision, career considerations, family, partners, loneliness, expanding social circles, renting or buying a home, holidays, children and schooling, shipping, pets and finance, culture shock, coming home etc.
An essential guide for anyone thinking of moving abroad for several months or a few years and an essential adjunct to the Vacation Work Live & Work series on specific countries.
