Expat Blueprint

Designing Your Bold Life Abroad

Escape the Ordinary. Design the Life You Truly Want—Abroad.

In Expat Blueprint: Designing Your Bold Life Abroad, Michael Morton delivers a comprehensive, honest, and inspiring guide for anyone who’s ever dreamed of living in another country—whether for six months or forever.

This is not a fantasy-laced travel diary. It’s a boots-on-the-ground roadmap to building a life of freedom, security, and purpose outside your home country. Drawing from personal experience and extensive research, Morton takes you step by step through the entire process: researching destinations, building a realistic financial plan, navigating visas, preparing for cultural adjustment, finding housing, making friends, and even coming back home (if you choose to).

You’ll learn:

• How to identify the best countries for your lifestyle, values, and budget

• What most guides leave out about healthcare, income, and long-term legality

• How to avoid costly expat mistakes that could derail your dream

• Why part-time expat living may be the best of both worlds

• And how to confidently design a hybrid or permanent life overseas—with clarity and intention

From retirees seeking adventure to remote workers chasing flexibility, Expat Blueprint is your trusted companion for making life abroad not only possible—but sustainable and rewarding.

If you’ve ever looked out the window and wondered, “What if?”—this book is your answer.
