Expatriate women have plenty to care for. From taking care of the family to holding a job to expats abroad, the day can seem like it never ends. ExpatAngels is here to assist you in keeping everythingone at a time, whether you are looking for tips and advice, assistance in finding a healthcare plan, expats abroad, or just a community of similar minded expats to get in touch with. We understand that it is hard dealing with all life can hit you with, so allow us to help you find anything you will need to keep moving forward abroad.
Instead of trying to handle expats abroad and everything else on your own, allow us to help you during the transition of expatriating. Dealing with all of those areas in life in an unfamiliar culture isn't always effortless. For most ladies, keeping only one job is an impossibility. With ExpatAngels by your side, even dealing with expats abroad and the confusion of relocating abroad you can continue doing everything. Many ladies have to fill the roles of mother, wife, chef, cleaner and more on top of their usual work. For expatriate women, things can get even more difficult and new things such as expats abroad are needed.

Not all Dutch things are easy to adapt to(c) Amanda van MulligenAround a year ago I published a blog post which threw up the question whether the Netherlands was a friendly place to live for expats. The resounding response was no. And it was the most commented on post I have written - with comments still coming in.It seems that most of you indicated that making friends with Dutch people is nigh on impossible. That Dutch people are very closed off (to expats) and that the local language is a...

Today we made the wrong choice. After a good lunch at Rakuzen Publika, we went to The Bee (at the far end of Publika, close to a Carpark entrance/ exit). The place was packed. Music was too loud. Plus points- had sofa, and mix of benches, tables, chairs which made it "homey"- Lots of people, maybe food is good' Many expats and locals alike- waitress changed the ultra-hardened old red velvet slice. We ordered a cupcake and instead she came with the wrong order. We gave it a go and was shocked...

Today is effectively the very first day of my "summer vacation 2012" - Â 3 months of not much work & no paycheck. I didn't have a paycheck for 5 years before this, but somehow now that I'm back to the "workforce" (though still working in the margins), it does bother me a lot not to have a salary in the next months. Sigh...Next year I will have it for at least a month when I teach for the study abroad in Brazil which reminds me that I do have to work this summer planning that. And I...

Expats have a tendency to miss those "little things" from home.When I first got to Germany it became obvious that I would need to research and find new shampoo, different deodorant, dental floss, etc. And that was just in the bathroom.
In the case of some items, I ended up finding a product/brand which was better than what I was replacing. But when it came to others, I had to settle for something I didn't really like as much as what I'd left back home. Never have I found dental floss which is...

My first days here in the compound were no sorrows, neither fun rather boring. I had a car and a driver but where should I go. I'm more interested in the local life than in the expats-proof locations but should I risk going out on my own already' If only I could get on line! But internet can be very challenging here in Angola! Sad to say, but without the internet I'm pretty much lost. One day at the pool we met a very nice couple who are coincidentally moving back to the States. They were...

Weird Sign At The Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa, April 2012
I'm a huge fan of signs and I always keep an eye out for the funniest or strangest ones, at home or abroad.
I found this gem when exploring the Central Experimental Farm a few days ago. It was put up in the very quiet parking lot. Feng and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. ?The hell'?? we wondered.
?Looks like it's a warning against old perverts kidnapping innocent girls,? I ventured.
I know it must mean ?use the...

Loud rhythmic music and all the usual chaos at the supermarket checkout. The cashier hands me the receipt and change in 5-Kwanza bills. I glance at my receipt and I notice that there are 10 Kwanza less. Full of confidence in my Portuguese I tell her that she should give me the proper change. She refuses with a loud laugh and yells at the others cashier ladies with sarcasm: dez Kwanza!Some other expats are smiling at me with compassion. I get irritated and insist on getting the change back...
