For those who leave, arrive, and become

The book is beautiful, comforting, gentle, and emotional.

Through her own experience, as well as the experiences of others, Nika talks about the challenges of living abroad, all the hardships, complications, and emotional phases, but also the wonderful experiences. I love how the book structurally guides you from start to finish, offering guidelines and advice essential for moving, while also shedding light on all those imperfect and invisible struggles experienced by people living away from their home countries.

I loved this guide. There are so many things you don’t think about when planning a move abroad. As someone preparing to relocate from the USA to Europe, this was incredibly helpful and genuinely motivating.

I bought this book thinking maybe one day I’d be brave enough to make the move. By the last chapter, reading the real stories from people who did it, I found myself actively preparing for my first steps.

Such an amazing & inspiring book. So personal with all of the individual stories inside, yet so practical and comforting! Can’t recommend it enough – if you or someone you know is planning to move abroad, this book is a must-read!!

Nika named the thing I couldn’t. I moved for a job. She helped me realise I was also moving away from a version of myself I’d outgrown. Our sessions are the quietest, most honest hour of my month.
