Hey guys in Norway or wanting to move there,

Fellow expat Stephanie has sent us a piece about how she navigates between her British-ish and her French-ish identity and we thought we would share it with you.

Her opinion piece is featured on our magazine:
Opinion: Does being an expat mean Ill always be the outsider?

We would love to know what you think!

Happy Thursday,
AL

I've lived in Norway for almost 7 years and been an expat for 14. At this point I don't really think about my "expat identity". I'm a mom, a wife, and a person with a collection of experiences just like anyone else.
