Expat Life In Iceland
Have you ever visited a city or a country and just known deep down that it's where you were meant to be? This is what Steph Zakas experienced on her first visit from the USA to Iceland, and it's the reason why she's living in the country today.
Steph Zakas is a true slashie - she’s a coach, advisor, consultant, and photographer. In this chat, you’ll find out how she made Iceland her home, what it’s like to live in a country of such extreme contrasts (so much darkness in winter and a sun that never sets in the summer), and how Steph thinks that contributes to such a creative society. You’ll also learn that if you do come to Iceland, you shouldn’t treat the place like Disneyland.

    14:40 "You have to learn to be comfortable being uncomfortable if you're not already... At some point, you just really have to surrender and adopt a mentality of 'whatever's going to happen is going to happen' because so much of your life is out of your control especially towards the end. You are relying on governments and bureaucrats and movers and housecleaners and veterinarians, and so many things are essentially beyond your control. It's really a fantastic exercise in trust and patience."

    Being in a country that is Strict and conservative when it comes to preserving the family is a wonderful thing. I love Oman I do also advise expats to find out about Islam before they go, as Islam and family are extremely important to the Omanis and Muslims

    Oman is great if you wanna stop by for a limited time vacation However, I advise you all to not move there... because there's a lot of Racism which people want to not talk about or avoid People are losing their jobs due to something called "Omanization" and the conditions for survival if you're a foreigner are very harsh In America , people can stand up to racism and even protest.... over in Oman people aren't even allowed to protest or speak for themselves... The Government supports locals and will do nothing for foreigners , I advise you all once again... go there for a Vacation but do not go there for Job opportunities or a "better life"...

    Its amazing that Aussies and Kiwis can come and work here but as a British Indian they stopped me going into thier countries and I only went as my grand mother was dying of cancer. They asked me and interogated me. I said why are you asking so many questions, I aint here to work and even if I were in the UK we have so many Kiwis and Aussies who come to work in England. They reply I got was we have to look after our own people and unemployed. We in the UK, had at teat time nearly the population of NZ 3.5 million unemployed which is the population of the the N.I of N.Z. I said we still let your lot in.The chap at immigration control sadi well your country is stupid then , we look after our people first. That line has haunted me ever since. How dim are the British. I was refused entry and my grand mother died two days after I arrived at Heathrow! How shitty is that!

    I immigrated from Texas to the Czech Republic in my 50s. It is my ancestral homeland, and I live in Ostrava. Each day I study the language, and I am getting better at it. Even so, if I spent the same amount of time learning Indonesian, my husband's native language, I would be around C1 by now. In Czech I am somewhere between A2 and B1. Even so, I enjoy learning, so I just keep progressing. It just takes time. I will never return to the US, as I love my life here. Not perfect, but life here is very good.

    Actually as an expat woman in Oman you can join your husband and any other relative in your visa. What they have said about this is NOT accurate!! Maybe they didn't check the rules propely.

    What sort of visa does he have? I'm Canadian and I'd love to retire in Hong Kong but visas are an issue. I could go for the investor visa if I'm wealthy enough when I retire. Or I could go there "to learn Cantonese" with a student visa and after seven years gain right to abode.

    Sara, enjoyed your interview. I'm in the Kastela region looking for real estate. This is my second visit. I have a villa in Spain, but I am limited in stays ,[Schengen] winters in Canada last longer than 3 months. I am from Amarillo and Dallas, but do enjoy a dual citizenship living on Campobello island in Canada. There are numerous reasons for interest in Croatia that I won't elaborate in this contact, but do find my comfort level increases with each day. I will leave on the 2 of December. I am a subscriber of your 'Focus' and would appreciate additional information about Croatian residency. I am retired and interested in the 6 months window if owning property here. I cook Mexican food! Don
