    FINALE
    Oct 27 2023
    The first season of the Expat Dispatch Podcast has come to an end. In half a year we recorded 15 episodes, 13 of which were with fascinating guests from all over the world: 11 countries and 5 continents. A map of listeners is even more mindblowing: countless countries from all inhabitable continents. In the FINALE Tina, Sergei, and Dmitry share their personal and professional journeys throughout this season, together with their observations and conclusions. It was such a valuable experience to be able to dive into the unique life stories of each guest and to see their path to and in the Netherlands, all their struggles and joys. This was not about success stories (as we considered doing in the beginning) but about people. We wanted to create a sense of community and in that, we believe, succeded. We didn’t follow the prepared questions and structure, improvising and trying to catch what our guests wanted to share. That’s why we haven’t just focused on the Netherlands but also spent a decent amount of time comparing it to the guest’s places of origin and the places they lived in before. Not all interviewees are staying in this country anymore, but for us, it was important to pick up and document their voyages at particular moments in time. We tried to catch as many perspectives as possible, and it didn’t matter if they came here to work or to study, to have some fun or to settle down. Will there be a continuation? We don’t know yet. After all, in that half a year we’ve found new jobs and changed places. Most of our guests were a friend of ours (and sorry for those with whom we didn’t have time to record an episode). If we will continue we also need to see the demand that you want this. That’s why we are asking you to leave us reviews and rankings on the platforms that you use, or even directly reach out to us. Share what you’ve enjoyed the most and the least. And finally, if you value what we’ve been doing, consider becoming a member on Patreon. Just by paying 4$ per/month (and cancel anytime) you’ll help us to understand if can continue because each month of editing and hosting the podcast costs at least 60$. Find the link in the bio or type in: patreon.com/ExpatDispatch. We express our deep gratitude to all the guests and listeners. Stay tuned (hopefully) and listen to the bunch of cool stuff that’s already out there.

    In this thought-provoking episode, Sergei and Dmitry sit down with Jessica, a landscape architect from South Africa, to delve into her unique urban perspectives. We start by exploring the differences between Cape Town and Johannesburg, shedding light on how these cities influence their residents' social lives and lifestyles as Jessica offers valuable insights into their contrasting dynamics. Her experiences with a German company operating in Saudi Arabia, lead to discussions on the evolving culture and global integration of that Gulf country, along with the challenges of reducing car dependency for sustainability through improved public transport. An intriguing twist comes when Jessica recounts a brief job stint in Amsterdam, driven by a compelling counteroffer from her previous employer's CEO. We explore urban forestry master planning and her fascination with the complexity of city systems and concepts. We also delve into the complex issue of gentrification, citing case studies from Cape Town and Rotterdam, where Jessica shares her admiration for Dutch urban design, emphasizing its diversity and innovative planning. Join us for this insightful episode, as Jessica guides us through her life journey, offering valuable insights into ever-evolving urban landscapes that shape our lives.
