    How many of you are Expatriate ?

    An expatriate (in abbreviated form expat) is someone temporarily or permanently in a country and culture other than that of their upbringing and/or legal residence. The word comes from the Latin ex (out of) and patria (country), and is sometimes misspelt as ex-patriot, due to its pronunciation.



    I came to Budapest June 1 2004. Since them I have spent 80% of that time here. Only going back to the states a few times for about a total of 4 months.

    This Expatriate thing is new to me and not sure were I fit in. I'm still paying taxes, have bank accounts and have a home in the states. So really I didn't think I would be called a Ex Pat however according to the above definetion I guess I am

      I started traveling outside of the US when I was 18 ... spent a lot of time in Europe.

      Then 1 year in Brazil.

      Then I moved to Canada for 6 years.

      Then I spent 2 years traveling around the US and now I live in Asia for 1 year and half.

              I spent most of my life as an "expat", but at the moment Im in the UK again....

              As far as laws, regulations and tax etc are concerned - its a bloody nightmare!!

              The best advise I can offer is to keep your head down....

                                  RAM, how're you getting along with the language? Back when I lived in Budapest almost nobody spoke any English at all. Which is really fucking surprising, considering the amount of tourists the city gets.

                                        I'm living in Budapest as well (in Almassy ter). Been here for the past 6 years shooting content for my own sites. Winter sucks frozen balls, but come the summer. Most of my friends who came here during the warmer months need to see the the chiropractor from turning the head this way and that, trying to catch all those pretty babes walking through Liszt Ferenc ter.....white thongs seen through tight pants!.

                                                and do people acutally speak english there?
                                                Instead of asking if people in Japan speak your language, why not learn their language?
                                                .

                                                  maybe it has to do with TIME ?

                                                  if everyone in Japan understands basic english I could leave tomorrow sort of speak, if they only speak Japanese I would need to learn the language first .. .

                                                        Cartagena is the city I enjoy the most. It's a beach city, has nightlife, great dining, lots of water activities and plenty of pretty chicas to attent to your every need.

                                                        It gets kind of humid there, always hot, and it's not as cheap as you think it would be (unless it's for coke or coffee)... but it's a great place to spend 4 - 6 months a year. Cartagena is a very romantic city filled with history.

                                                        I prefer the small mountain towns but they are WAY to sleepy to live there and the internet shuts off around 9pm in alot of them.

                                                          I forgot to add... If you can live in Brazil you can live in Colombia. Only difference is the police will fuck with you more in Colombia. Well, that and there are Guerrilla and Para Military groups that would love to kill or kidnap you. But other than that, it's about the same.

                                                            I'm not an expatriate but I'd love to fly over to Barcelona to meet some of you guys! (When the weather gets better, maybe in March or so...). Lived in Beijing for some time (months) and been to Barca a couple of times. Wish I could travel more, bit it's hard for me to leave my local friends.

                                                                Here's a good trick many Americans already use. When somebody doesn't understand English, speak it louder and slower! You'll do just fine.

                                                                          It gets kind of humid there, always hot, and it's not as cheap as you think it would be (unless it's for coke or coffee)... but it's a great place to spend 4 - 6 months a year. Cartagena is a very romantic city filled with history.

                                                                          I prefer the small mountain towns but they are WAY to sleepy to live there and the internet shuts off around 9pm in alot of them.

                                                                            It's mostly when you try to go from one city to another by land... or your driving in the mountains where there are guerrilla... or if your in a heavy drug trafficking area like Buenaventura.
