10 Expat Blogs You’ll Love

“Such is the nature of an expatriate life. Stripped of romance, perhaps that’s what being an expat is all about: a sense of not wholly belonging…The insider-outsider dichotomy gives life a degree of tension.”
- Sarah Turnbull, Almost French: Love and a New Life in Paris

Nice list! Bleeding Expresso is indeed a really good Italian expat blog – I’ve been reading her for ages since I, too, am an expat in Italy!

I’ve been an expat for 13 years, in Barcelona, London, Geneva and now Bhutan. This last place is the first that has merited documenting, so my wife and I have been keeping an expat blog for the past 8 months. If you are interested in what they don’t show the tourists, have a look!
