Expat! Thoughts for your first month living abroad by David Miretti is a good book about the different challenges and adventures you will face during your first month as an Expat.  Expat is the short version of the word expatriate.  An Expat is a person temporarily or permanently residing in a country other than that of the person's upbringing.  The word comes from the Latin terms ex ("out of") and patria ("country, fatherland").I enjoyed this book and as someone who has traveled overseas I think it is important to be prepared as best you can whenever you travel, well enough go live in a foreign land.  The book covered alot of topics like how to be careful when going out at night, foreign bureaucracy, and even storing and shipping your possessions.  But the book is not a in case of doomsday book, it also talks about the you definitely experience everything your new home has to offer.  I very much enjoyed this book and would recommend it to others to read.Thank you for reading my review.
