In this episode of the Expat Repat Podcast, I talk with Alison Trainer, Opera Singer, University Professor - and Founder of the wildly popular Grumpy Expat closed Facebook Group. Alison was a grumpy expat and decided to leave her expat life behind and split with her Swiss partner when she moved back to the US for a professor position in 2017. Alison and I talked about career and work as an expat woman and mother, international separation with children in the mix, and what makes a happy expat.
