Stop! Before You Move Your Life Overseas You Need To Read This Book Moving to a new country is certainly not as hard as it may seem, but it does take a concrete decision, followed by decisive action. This book helps you make that decision, and points you firmly in the right direction to not only move but to live successfully in your new home. Once you've read this book you will be able to confidently answer all-important questions such as... 1. Is moving abroad really right for me? 2. Do I have a temperament suited to the expatriate life? 3. Am I considering emigrating for the right reasons? 4. Would I be best placed staying where I am? 5. Where in the world, home or away, am I likely to be happiest? 6. What factors should I consider when choosing my new country? The whole life abroad dream seems great, and yes, moving overseas can lead to a healthier, happier, richer life - but many expats still return home each year with their dreams and finances in tatters. So, rather than giving you yet more on the mechanics of moving overseas, this book is packed with first-hand accounts, well-researched facts and balanced questions to help you answer the most important question of all: should I go in the first place? Should you stay or should you go? Now is the time to make up your mind and really start living.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for Anyone Considering Expat Life, April 8, 2010
By 
SE Burlingame (Bernardsville, New Jersey USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Any valuable primer about life abroad must provide a comprehensive view
of the realities involved with an international relocation. This involves
an accurate assessment of the advantages and disadvantages, the risks and
the rewards, and the marvels and the laborious details inherent to any move
abroad. Paul Allen's aptly titled book will truly assist those who want to explore
whether or not living overseas is for them. -- Betsy Burlingame, [...]

4.0 out of 5 stars Honest book on the pros and cons of moving abroad, April 29, 2010
By 
Writer Abroad (Zurich, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Truth About Moving Abroad and Whether It's Right for You: Should I Stay or Should I Go? (Paperback)
The question to move abroad is a complex one, but Paul Allen's book, Should I Stay or Should I Go: The Truth About Moving Abroad and Whether It's Right for You makes the decision process simple (at least as simple as something this life-altering can be). It's well-written, well-researched, easy to read, but most importantly, it's honest. While the decision to move abroad is emotional as well as rational, Allen's book helps you separate the two by focusing on ten areas one should consider when moving abroad. But ultimately, as Allen points out, the decision to move really comes down to the big what if and which what if? you'll regret more in the future. My only regret: not having this book before I moved to Switzerland.

This review is from: The Truth About Moving Abroad and Whether It's Right for You: Should I Stay or Should I Go? (Paperback)
It did not cover all the countries in SA I thought it would. It makes you think about leaving though.
