So you would like to write a few notes or a profile about where you are living.  Great! Thanks very much.  Someone following in your footsteps will really appreciate it.  We had no support when we moved to Milan, but a very organised group of Unilever Wives had put together an excellent book of information, which was so useful when we moved to Den Haag. It was my intention to do the same for Dubai when we moved here so I started to collate information and that’s how ExpatMum.com came to be!

Notes can be something very simple - just a paragraph on choosing a school in Y, or getting the best out of shopping in X…. something really familiar to you, but a useful insight for somebody else. Or if you have the time and the inclination to do something more comprehensive, then take a look at the profile proforma. This is only a guide; different places call for different approaches. And if you have any experiences of repatriating you would like to share - successful or otherwise - you can tell us about that too.

Thanks for taking the time.
