The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup

Chris Penn from Off Grid Skoolie has been living and travelling in vehicles for over 10 years now. His journey started in a self-converted camper van, and today, he lives full time in a 2002 Blue Bird Skoolie. After spending 3 years in a Class A motorhome, he knew something had to change.   WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW: Listen in while Chris talks about the extensive renovations required after buying his 2002 Blue Bird Skoolie. What happens when you realize that you want something bigger and better… What life is really like living in a BlueBird Skoolie and travelling through Alaska, Canada and the entire USA for more than 10 years? Mikkel and Chris talk shop…1700w of solar, 900ah of lithium battery storage, 26quft. Of cold food storage and 200 gallons of fresh water capacity. Now that’s the way to travel! What does life look like after the culmination of lessons learned from hundreds of thousands of miles travelling in many different kinds of vehicles? Off-grid life and what features are important when you spend several months on the road.  Favourite quote of the day: Don’t talk about it, be about it Life can be absolutely amazing doing something that makes you happy, and driving coast to coast in a Skoolie is what does it for Chris. But what about money? Chris talks about earning a living, a good living.  Chris and Mikkel share travel stories, what living on the road can teach someone and is being a digital nomad and seeing the world really in your blood.   RELATED PODCAST EPISODES 143: Building A Business And Finding Romance In Brazil – Kevin Koskella 140: How To Live Your Life Unconstrained – Myles Wakeham 135: Living A Perpetual Traveller Lifestyle – Sergio Von Facchin   HOW TO REACH CHRIS PENN TheOffgridSkoolie.com Tinyhometour.com Zepplin travels.com   CONCLUSION: What a great life Chris has!

Gret Glyer is the founder of DonorSee, a support network for the world's poorest. Their Mission is to become the world's fastest-growing charity platform and usher in a new age of global charity by raising the industry's standards for transparency, immediacy, and innovation.   WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW: Exactly how to make a difference in the life of an infant child, a widow or an orphaned child….and how to help them possibly provide for themselves for a lifetime! Who really benefits from donating as little as $10 a month to people from the poorest country on the planet? Why it’s essentially impossible for people from developing countries like Malawi to get themselves out of poverty with the system we have without some help from outside sources How your donation can provide simple necessities like formula and food for a child for an entire year. A common myth about why people from Africa are some of the poorest countries in the world... This is an important concept to understand when you reach into your pocket to help and why it’s so important to help. How to guarantee your donation goes directly to the project that you have chosen. What happens after you donate? Listen in as Gret explains what the protocol is and how your money will be spent. This is tax-deductible -- I would much rather see my subscribers voluntarily giving money to help families in need instead of it being wasted on taxes.   PODCAST EPISODES YOU WILL ENJOY 145: Building A Nonprofit In The Slums Of Uganda – Jennings Wright 076: Chasing Black Unicorns - Tech Startups & Corruption - Marek Zmyslowski 031: How You Can Make A Difference In Small Island Nations With Renewable Energy And Sustainable Innovation - James Ellsmoor   CONCLUSION: What a heart-wrenching conversation with Gret Glyer. Listening to his stories of living in the poorest country in the world for three years led to the founding of DonorSee. Gret believes relationships are the heartbeat of effective charity. His platform enables donors to donate directly to people in need and see the impact of their gifts with a video update on every donation. I would like to encourage you to donate; even just a small amount will make a big impact. You’ll understand my urgency once you’ve listened to Gret’s story of living overseas and how important DonorSee is.Mentioned in this episode:No Plan-B Without the LanguageIf you’re planning to move overseas—or even just set up your offshore Plan-B—learning the local language isn’t optional.

Today’s guest on the Expat Money Show is Linda Mueller, a coach for expat partners who have given up their own careers in their home countries to help support their spouses abroad. Her company is called The Expat Partner Coach and she offers a program called Adapt & Succeed Abroad that addresses the key issues faced by expat spouses from planning a move to adapting quickly and creating connections.  She has been featured in HuffPost, Women’s Health, MSN, and Thrive Global.   HERE’S WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW: Linda and Mikkel discuss what it’s REALLY like being a spouse living overseas. Top tips and tricks to understanding if your spouse is saying ‘yes’ to the opportunity for them or not. Best bit of advice you can get from an experienced spouse & expat that has moved to more countries than you have probably moved homes! Why it’s so important to help your spouse to communicate & understand what lays ahead of them. Best advice from a veteran expat of 13 years, who has made 7 international moves Is reverse culture shock (coming back to the USA), real?  Linda shares what the move to Japan was like, not once but twice? What did she go through? Was she scared? Was it a massive shift?   RELATED PODCAST EPISODES 144: How To Raise Your Children To Be Multilingual - Sara Tarvin 138: Digital Nomad Life In Asia - Dean Kuchel 115: The Solution To Educating Your Children Abroad - Michael Strong   HOW TO REACH Instagram and Fb @ The Expat Partner Coach The Expat Partner Coach   CONCLUSION: I had such an interesting conversation with Linda about living overseas with a spouse who has taken on a new job in different countries, 7 times. They were lucky enough to live in Japan twice and also one of my favourite places, Abu Dhabi UAE.  Life can be daunting for a spouse that has their own career and is then asked by their spouse to give it up. Linda really understands what it takes to make the move and still keep her family together.

Is it still a great place to buy real estate? and is living tax-free at the top of living a free life! Brazil: freedom, food and safety. Why living in one of the safest areas of Brazil has been one of the most interesting times as a family! Did we mention Food; Churrasco... Mikkel talks about having an indoor BBQ in his home and enjoying some of the best meat ever, being one of the highlights of living in Brazil.  Listen in as Mikkel talks about buying real estate in one of the most beautiful places in Brazil and having the ability to walk out your back door to some of the best beaches in the world.  Cost of living in Brazil, you will be pleasantly surprised! Children, how quickly they adapt to the language, food and surroundings and why you shouldn’t fear their ability to make these changes.  The truth about government-run schools, the damage that can be done by forcing your children to attend and how a new expat international school based on Socratic ideas can change your children’s lives forever. Heading home to Panama and the work that lays ahead of us, and how excited we are to be going home!    RELATED PODCAST EPISODES 144: How To Raise Your Children To Be Multilingual - Sarah Tarvin 131: Travelling To Brazil During The Pandemic - Mikkel Thorup 115: The Solution To Educating Your Children Abroad - Michael Strong   HOW TO FIND MIKKEL THORUP'S WORK Our new YouTube channel, subscribe here: ExpatMoneyShow.com/youtube Facebook Group: ExpatMoneyForum.com Buy my book: ExpatSecretsBook.com - profits get reinvested back into the podcast to pay for the editors and to make the show.   SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER If you’d been receiving the EMS Pulse newsletter and the weekly Expat Sunday Times, you would have already read the basics of today's story!

Today’s guest on the Expat Money Show is Jennings Wright the Founder & Executive Director of 10Eighteen.org, a nonprofit organization that works with teen moms in the Namuwongo slums in Uganda with a halfway house and a vocational school; a WASH campaign in remote Rwakobo village inside Lake Mburo National Park; and food for children in 3 schools.   WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW: How modifying your perspective on something so important will radically change your life. What you feel when you step inside a country like Uganda, how it changes your life and gets in your heart You can’t even imagine what the slums in Uganda are like, the smell, the waste, the garbage yet Jennings has been 13 times to help make a difference for all that live there. Listen to the story of a grandmother who is raising 6 grandchildren from 2 of her children who have died of AIDS...unfathomable. Who really benefits from the normal average non-profit? Jennings describes in detail how different their organization is and how the people she helps learn new skills to take out to the world and make a difference. What happens when you work with a nation that is mostly illiterate? Or that 65% of the population is under 18? What is in store for Ugandans going forward? Here’s how you can really truly make a difference in the lives of others that don’t have access to clean water, clothes or food every day; imagine only eating every other day?  Learn how vitally important schools being open in a country like Uganda so that children can have food to eat every day.  The shocking stories of teen pregnancies in the slums of Kampala and how food is traded for sex.    PODCAST EPISODES YOU WILL ENJOY 131: Travelling To Brazil During The Pandemic – Mikkel Thorup 127: Lockdowns Around The World And Where It's Safe To Go - Jeffrey Tucker 115: The Solution To Educating Your Children Abroad – Michael Strong   HOW TO FIND JENNINGS WRIGHT'S www.10Eighteen.org Facebook   SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER If you’d been receiving the EMS Pulse newsletter and the weekly Expat Sunday Times, you would have already read the basics of today's story!

We had to stop several times so that I could get myself composed. Jennings's stories are heartbreaking but true. I know my listeners, and I can only imagine that every one of you who takes the time to listen will be compelled to want to help. I know I am and that is why I have decided to make 10Eighteen the official charity of Expat Money and I will be supporting their initiative going forward. Mentioned in this episode:This Is Your Invitation to The HubThis isn’t for tourists.
