Have you ever wondered how different your life would be if you were more socially confident or charismatic? From early on in our lives, a lot of emphasis has been put on academic ability and its relation to our success or lack of it. While academic ability can be important, it is now believed that in reality our ability to adapt to our social environment is the better predictor of our future success in several areas of our lives, even more so than anything we learn in school.

Publisher's summary
You’ve done your research, your gut’s telling you to go, and you’ve finally made your decision: you’re moving to a foreign country. It all sounds wonderful except for one, minor detail. You’re an introvert.
Now, the idea of living in a foreign country, speaking a foreign language, socializing with complete strangers (in another language!), and navigating all the cultural nuances of a new place are really freaking you out.
But whatever you do, do not refund your ticket. Instead, pick up this audiobook and realize that you’re going to be just fine.
In fact, it’s going to be better than that. You’re going to thrive as an introverted expat. But here’s the thing. It won’t happen overnight. You’re going to need some tips, tricks, and strategies. You’re also going to need a good understanding of who you are and what it really means to be an introvert.
And that’s what this audiobook covers, along with these key points:
- What an introvert is and isn’t
- Seven essential characteristics of an introvert
- Why being an introvert is your biggest asset while living abroad
- What to pack to create the best home, aka recharge station
- How to identify your stressors and triggers before you leave
- How to cope with isolation, loneliness, depression and overwhelm in your foreign country
- Networking tips and more!
Listen to Introverted Expat today!
About the expert: Marie Therese Batt has traveled the world, and knows the ins and outs of thriving as an introverted expat. When she was 20, she bought a one-way ticket to Germany, where she completed her bachelor degree, made wonderful friendships, and fell in love with freshly baked breads. Her latest move? A transatlantic leap to Italy, where she’s spent the last two years learning Italian, attending University and eating with the locals at little trattorias.

Hardly anyone ever leaves Des Moines, Iowa. But Bill Bryson did, and after 10 years in England he decided to go home, to a foreign country. In an ageing Chevrolet Chevette, he drove nearly 14,000 miles through 38 states to compile this hilarious and perceptive state-of-the-nation report on small-town America.

Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house - a farmer’s stone cottage - on “a small acre” of land. Mary assumed duties as the island’s district nurse.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

New Hampshire features Frost's meditations on rural life, love, and death, delivered in the voice of a soft-spoken New Englander. Critics have long marveled at the poet's gift for capturing the speech of the region's natives and his realistic evocations of the area's landscapes. This compilation, first published in 1923, earned Frost the first of his four Pulitzer Prizes and includes several of his best-known poems: "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening", "Nothing Gold Can Stay", and "Fire and Ice".

For 30 years, drummer, author, and songwriter Neil Peart had wanted to write a book about "the biggest journey of all in my restless existence: the life of a touring musician." Finally, the right time, and the right tour. In the summer of 2004, after three decades, 20 gold albums, and thousands of performances, the band Rush embarked on a 30th Anniversary World Tour. The "R30" tour traveled to nine countries, where the band performed 57 shows for more than half a million fans. Uniquely, Peart chose to do his between-show traveling by motorcycle, riding 21,000 miles of back roads.

A few helpful tips but a big over-reach
This book is more a saccharin Stuart Smiley self-help book than a book about being an introverted expat. There are very few tidbits of actionable information. Good audio quality and narration. Maybe worth it for the few tidbits, but I found myself fast-forwarding through 90% of the tedious and unqualified advice.

Great positive support for introverts
This is great and positive and mostly stays away from labels, as it keeps reminding you of the uniqueness of everyone.
The narrator has a very positive tone.
Great for all people with some introverted qualities, not just expats.
