Here You Are - Reflections on Year 2 & How it Felt Going Back to Australia

In our second part of the returning episodes, we shout out a bunch of you listeners keenly back on the podcast again (and we're so excited to see you all made your way back!).

We answer a question from a listener about what going to Australia was like after being away for two years, and how we know we're in the right place.

And Matt talks a bit about how he was sucked into working for himself in a year of burnout.

We're Matt & Bernadine, sharing our stories From My Home To Yours.

About the Podcast

From My Home To Yours: An Expat/Repat Journey from Australia to Ireland
Experiences and advice for expats and repats moving to Ireland
Moving across the world to another country can be hard, but it's easier when your significant other is a local. "From My Home To Yours" follows the journey of Bernadine (Irish) & Matthew (Australian) moving their lives from Australia to Ireland. They leave no stone unturned as they discuss the logistics and planning needed to make the journey successful, and the emotional upheaval of making a new life together halfway across the world.
And now they're back after two years away from the podcast and living their lives in Ireland, with a bit more to share about what being an expat/repat is like in the long term and what to expect a couple of years into your journey.
