Hello and welcome to a new series for Two Fat Expats.

Our podcast will now be coming to you twice a week. On Mondays you can tune in and listen to our normal format where Kirsty and I discuss all things expat. Thursdays is the day for our new series “On the Road”. Kirsty and I will be interviewing expats both from all over the world, we have some really interesting stories over the next few weeks. Expat business, expat divorce, expat entrepreneurs, and what happens after an expat affair. We thought we’d start of slowly though and talk about expat entrepreneurs.

Our first interview is with Ali Longmate, a Doha expat for almost 9 years. Ali had a career as a corporate lawyer in London, and after making the move to Doha with her family her dreams and passions shifted focus. Fitness became an essential component in Ali’s life and from that she started Ali Fit Club.

Ali shares with us some great tips on why exercise and movement in your every day life is so essential. It was also great to hear from such an inspiring woman who has successfully built her own company from the ground up and is doing so well. Ali is a great example of how to build a new career from scratch in an expat world, she has a strong and engaged online community and is loving her new field of work.
