Eleanor An American in Munich

08/15/20 • 45 min

I'm back! Episode 17 is a hoot!

I got the chance to speak with Eleanor Mayrhofer an American who decided to visit Germany for a year and hasn't returned.

We are taking you back to the nineties when tech was meeting art and Photoshop was becoming popular.

Eleanor got the travel bug early traveling to India with her aunt, after college she decided to go to Germany for one year and hasn't returned.

We cover stepping out of the comfort of the expat bubble, building a business and the hard decision to close it down.

Sometimes the answer to what you should do is right in front of you you just have to tweak it a little bit.

Nina Boons: Two Expat Experiences in Panama

Nina Boons is a Health Coach, Mum of two, globetrotting German and business owner.

In this episode of The Enterprising Expat we take it back to when people planned their trips with The Lonely Planet.

We take a leap to Australia then to The Emirates, pause in London and make a few other detours along the way.

Nina talks frankly about some of the choices we can ease into when we are the "trailing spouse" and how an undiagnosed condition was the launching point for a business she didn't plan.

Thank you for listening to the Enterprising Expat
