EXPATRIATE ABROAD

There are nowadays more and more people who go on expatriation across the world. And many of them chose blogs.

This is a very widespread phenomenon (skyblog alone hosts more than 30 000 000 blogs). Expatriates use this communication means to either write stories about their inevitably different and thus exciting lives in foreign countries, or to give advice and information about everyday life, musts in London, Washington or Tokyo with photos and videos.

The booming of expatriates' blogs

Expatriates are the only people who can describe a country from an objective standpoint, without any patriotism. Every day, millions of expatriate internet users create virtual communities which they regularly visit. Blogs are not only very stirring for the expatriates who write them, but they are also useful for those who dream of leaving their country and giving it a go, because they are the best way for them to know everything. Franceline Vernet is the 33 years-old wife of an expatriate, and she has been living in Japan with her family for three years. She says that " at first, I had only created this blog to tell everything and escape from boredom. But then, I became aware that I was helping many people. All those who were wondering how Japan was and how life was there talked to me about their faltering and their doubts about their arrival here. Some of their fears were sometimes wholly unjustified! I have been very happy to provide them with truthful information. Some of them have even come here, and we actually meet ".

There are different types of blogs, and everyone can add motivations to the pleasure to share new experiences, according to their expectations and wishes.

Fred, a Belgian expatriate in Vietnam, has thus created a blog to both comment on many social actions and give rise to further social actions.

Gwenn, who comes from Lyon (France), is an expatriate in Germany who puts magnificent photos on his blog and thus shows his talent as a web designer. And Christophe even films some mythical stories of chinese history. Each expatriate enjoys infinite possibilities to share his passions where he lives by using any means of expression. Let us note that some bloggers even use blogs to become better writers and thus be spotted as web journalists.

How to create one's blog

Everyone has many internet websites at their disposal to create blogs, whoever they may be. Some of these sites even pay quite an important sum according to their audience (between 1 000 and 2 000 euros for those who are best paid)! You should also give it a thought, and you have to know that creating a blog is all the easier, as it does not require any computer skills. Blogs are first created by using self-publishing softwares, and they are then hosted by computer service providers to be available for consultation. Articles are published chronologically, eventually along with pictures and videos. All visitors can react to these articles and ask questions. As an expatriate, you should get to know the others, support and help one another, and also enjoy your hosting country.
