This book establishes a new perspective on common themes faced by expatriates, exploring the challenges and rewards of a multicultural lifestyle. It delves into how expatriates’ views on the world, their careers, home, and self-identity evolve during their time abroad, highlighting shared experiences. The text offers valuable insights into critical aspects of the expatriation process and strategies for supporting expatriates throughout their journey. By blending personal, artistic, and psychological viewpoints, it presents a philosophical exploration of the concept of home ("Heimat"). Furthermore, it contributes significantly to the emerging idea of integrating coaching and the arts within expatriate management. The author, Cora Schwarz, draws from her own experiences to provide a compelling narrative that reads partly like a novel, revealing rarely told stories. Her thorough investigation includes innovative suggestions and experiments in storytelling and art-making, which facilitate a deeper understanding of expatriation and foster opportunities for transformation. This study presents the phenomena in a culturally sensitive manner, driven by a passion for uncovering untold stories.
