Life Beyond Borders: Real Talk on Moving to Mexico, New Zealand, and More | Live from Move Abroad Con San Diego
What if the life you have been imagining could actually begin somewhere else?
At Move Abroad Con in San Diego, at the Hard Rock Hotel, Lori Adams-Brown stepped onto the conference floor to have three honest conversations with people living and breathing the conference about the expat life. Each one brought a different perspective. All three pointed to the same truth: the world is more open than most people think.
