When American Sara Dyson moved to Croatia in 2012, she couldn't find any local resources in English to help her. So as she figured things out - like residency and healthcare, Croatian culture and learning the language, she posted about it on her website, expatincroatia.com, to help other foreigners. Close to a decade later, Expat in Croatia is a full-blown business, and Sara is about to become a Croatian citizen.

In this interview, we talk about why Sara moved to Croatia, the 'one giant grey area' that is local bureaucracy and how to work through it, and what she loves about the Croatian way of life.
