WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE COURSE
"This is very useful. When coming from someone who has done it themselves, you get these details and caveats that you will never learn when simply researching the information online on your own. David provides the framework that allows you to not get overwhelmed by the number of things you need to consider when moving abroad. I definitely recommend this to anyone who is serious about moving abroad!" - Louigi
"This was a very thoughtful and informative course. David provides step-by-step instructions on how to successfully reach your goal of living and working abroad. Through his story and experiences, he shows you how attainable this dream can be with careful planning and hard work. Living abroad can seemingly be a daunting, scary endeavor but with David’s course you’ll hopefully see that it doesn’t have to be!" - Andrew
"This course was great! It covered everything I could think of for moving abroad. David's presentation was straightforward and easy to understand - I especially liked that he gave specific examples of services I could use for shipping my things abroad, etc. Thanks, David!" - Thomas
