Expat Women Blog
 
ExpatWomen.com is a comprehensive, global website helping women living overseas. The site displays 1,000+ quality content pages, over 1,400 expat women blogs, nearly 300 readers' stories, invaluable country resource pages, interviews with successful expat women, loads of motivational articles and an inspirational blog and monthly newsletter.

ExpatWomen.com was created by two friends, Andrea Martins and Jill Lengré, when they were both living in Mexico City. Their dream of connecting expatriate women worldwide was a result of their combined 20 years of experience living overseas.

Andrea and Jill worked together on the web site for two years (one year prior to launch on 16 January 2007, then one year after launch) before Jill stepped aside from the web site to focus on her move back to the US. Andrea now coordinates the web site from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Jill now lives and works in sunny California.

ExpatWomen.com's mission is to inspire your success abroad by providing you with a first-stop website to share stories, network globally, develop personally and find the best resources. Whether this is your first experience living overseas, you are a seasoned expat, a returned Expat Woman, or you are about to embark on your big adventure, we have something for everyone.

Thank you in advance for your tremendous support and our very best wishes for your life overseas!

  Andrea Martins
 
Andrea was born in Brisbane, Australia. She lived in three Australian states before she ventured overseas to become an Expat Woman in 2000, leaving Australia's clean air to follow her husband to Jakarta, Indonesia, for three years. They then moved to the similarly robust Mexico City, Mexico, where they lived for four years, with their two young children. Andrea and her family returned to Australia for two and half years, to live close to beautiful beaches and extended family. They recently moved to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia – which they plan to enjoy for the next four years.
