I completely agree — whether it’s been a week, a year, or just the time we've shared, I’ve never regretted opening my heart to a fellow expat.

I've always been the one to leave, long before moving abroad since I've written many different chapters. I've lived in so many places for a few years at a time that it changes what friendship looks like. The good ones stay in your heart even when geography separates you and you can pick back up as though no time has passed. That said, making friends in a foreign country where the language (yes, even in London) and culture are entirely new is a horse of a different color!!
