The Bittersweet Life

Should you visit a country if you can't speak the language? Some say no, that you'll never be able to understand or truly experience a culture if you can't make sense of what its people are saying. (One person who makes this claim is recent guest Paul Theroux in Episodes with Tiffany as your guide! 

We won't be remembered for long after we die—that’s a conclusion that Mo Rocca, correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning, came to on with Tiffany as your guide! 

What makes someone’s life worth remembering? Mo Rocca spends a lot of time thinking and talking about this, on his podcast with Tiffany as your guide! 

We are so grateful for all of our wonderful listeners around the world for your love, attention, and support throughout the over five years of this show!

In the lead up to Thanksgiving, Katy and Tiffany muse on the inevitable missing out on important holidays and events that comes with being a far-away expat. And the annual November dilemma: do I make the effort to celebrate Thanksgiving this year, or do I just skip it? In addition, in light of the numerous losses of loved ones they have both been through in recent years, they discuss the difference between being "home" when someone important passes, and having the opportunity to process it as part of a community, as opposed to going through it alone and far away. To lighten the mood and get ready for the holiday, they reminisce abut funny Thanksgiving memories, and attempt to tell a few Turkey Day jokes (prepare to groan). ---------------------------------------- ADVERTISE WITH US: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.
