Where's home? Where are you from? These sound like simple questions, but for millions of people around the world today, they have no simple answer. One in ten Canadian, British and Swiss citizens live abroad, as do 7 million Americans and 20 percent of New Zealanders. Who are all these people, and why are they leaving their home countries? Featured in Monocle magazine's The Forecast 2016, Roaming is a radical new way of living that defies age-old categories like "home" and "abroad" or "expats" and "immigrants." Roamers are the great "other" living around the planet today, moving from country to country with an ease and speed that was unheard of thirty years ago. But this new phenomenon raises questions for us all: How can societies cope with this constant flux? Can you really be at home abroad? What are the pleasures and pitfalls of living as a roamer? In this clever and timely anatomy of roaming, CM Patha crisscrosses the globe to cover these questions and ends up uncovering many, many more. Roaming is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand this fast-growing lifestyle and what it means for governments, societies, and roamers themselves.

All of these experiences have allowed me to continually perfect my strategies, removing the guesswork in my life which provides comfort and income stability. Through the years, I've gained a multitude of valuable information that I've organized into a master plan that is the How To Live Abroad and Thrive with Passive Income book. My financial stability has come from developing passive income streams, which pay consistently with minimal effort to maintain. With this financial stability, I can focus on pursuing the things that I want to, like learning more deeply about the cultures that I am living among, or pursuing my other passions.

How To Live Abroad and Thrive with Passive Income goes much deeper than finances, diving into philosophy and life strategies to make the most of life, no matter where in the world you end up. These strategies include choosing where to live, how to learn languages quickly and efficiently, how to meet people and make lasting connections, the benefits of minimalism and frugality, how to achieve optimum mind and body health, and more!
