{"product_id":"american-expat-moving-abroad-solo-after-60","title":"American Expat: Moving Abroad Solo After 60","description":"What if the life you’ve been dreaming of is just one bold decision away?\n\nIn 2021, amid global uncertainty and COVID lockdowns, Barbara Grassey left the United States and moved to Europe—alone. At 62, she boarded a plane to Portugal without knowing a single person, without speaking the language, and without ever having set foot in the country. What she did know was this: It was time to stop waiting and start living.\n\nAmerican Expat: Moving Abroad Solo After 60 is a candid, often funny expat memoir about leaving the US later in life and starting over in Europe. The book chronicles Barbara’s first year living in Portugal, from navigating confusing visa requirements and bureaucracy to building a new life from scratch in a foreign country. Along the way, she confronts fear, loneliness, freedom, and the unexpected joy of reinvention.\n\nWritten for anyone who has ever wondered if it’s too late—or too risky—to move abroad alone, this memoir speaks directly to readers considering leaving the United States, retiring overseas, or relocating to Europe later in life. Whether you’re in your 50s, 60s, or beyond, partnered or solo, Barbara’s story proves that reinvention doesn’t have an expiration date.\n\nIf you’ve ever dreamed of leaving the US or starting over in another country, American Expat is your permission slip, your roadmap, and your proof that it’s never too late to change your life.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0FCLNKL94\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: LFV.B0FCLNKL94.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Grassey, Barbara\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Book is in very good condition.
