Thanks to all who volunteered to "Share Your Story." We really value your input, and are excited to say we incorporated many of your compelling travel tales into our latest product, an "iPhone App" (application) for the Apple store. Still in development, the app will be an indispensable product to help international travelers. The app will be available this spring. Check back for updates.

Stay tuned for upcoming highlights of the research study, At Home Abroad: How Design and Architecture Influence Overseas Living. I co-authored this survey with Dr. Anne Copeland. We examined the relationship between housing choices and expatriate adjustment for over 100 international participants, who shared their experiences of choosing and settling into a home in a new country, and their thoughts about how their new home influenced their cultural and family experience living overseas.
