NEW: The Dream Locale Decoder Playbook

Because “somewhere warmer with good coffee and decent Wi-Fi” is a vibe — not a plan.

Hey!
Today’s post is part of our Dream Life Abroad Starter Kit series — and we’ve got a bunch of juicy tools dropping this month, all leading up to the big launch of our new brand, Home/Abroad, in early July.

✨ Subscribe so you don’t miss a thing — and consider upgrading to paid to access all the good stuff for just $5/month. Your future self will thank you.


Asking ChatGPT “Where should I move abroad?” feels like a genius shortcut — until it spits out the same 10 cities you’ve already seen in every listicle.

It can tell you where the Wi-Fi’s fast and the rent’s cheap.
But it can’t tell you what you need — not really.
It doesn’t know you’re in a season of reinvention. Or grief. Or that your idea of “affordable” includes emotional stability and a good oat flat white.

Because the real answers?
They don’t come from a chatbot.
They come from you.

This playbook is how you draw them out.
This is where you start.


🧳 Meet the Dream Locale Decoder Playbook

The newest addition to the Dream Life Abroad Starter Kit — and the missing piece between I took the quiz and got “Island Soul” and I’m booking one-way flights with confidence.

This isn’t a checklist.
It’s not a generic list of “affordable expat hotspots” that may or may not vibe with your nervous system.
It’s a soulful, practical, zero-fluff tool that helps you figure out where in the world you’re meant to be next — based on who you actually are right now.


Inside, you’ll find:

✅ A deeper dive into your Destination Personality (and how to use it well)
✅ A guide to filtering our Living Abroad Locales Database with both intuition and strategy
✅ A “Dealbreaker Radar” for each type (because Island Souls and visa chaos don’t mix)
✅ The Soul Test: 10 gentle-but-jolting questions that get right to the heart of it
✅ A Letter from Your Future Self (yes, really — and yes, it works)
✅ Space to shortlist your Top 3 dream locales, plus one wildcard you can’t stop thinking about


Who it’s for:

  • You want to move abroad but have way too many tabs open

  • You’ve taken the quiz and want to make sense of your results

  • You’ve never taken the quiz but like the idea of moving with more clarity

  • You’re already abroad and wondering… is this the place, or just a placeholder?


The full playbook is live now for paid subscribers, and it’s part of the growing Dream Life Abroad Starter Kit — your all-in-one, emotionally intelligent guide to building a life you don’t want to escape from.

You can preview the first section for free.
Then, if it speaks to you (and I think it will), you’ll unlock the rest when you subscribe.

(Your future self says hi, by the way.)
