Letters from abroad
Susie Hollands launches Letters From AbroaD
an insider's guide to living beautifully abroad - one letter at a time.
After more than twenty years of living abroad and helping thousands of clients relocate to new countries, I've learned that choosing where to live isn't just about beautiful views or good weather. It's about finding a place where you can thrive and build a life filled with a little adventure and a lot of the feeling of home.

21 Places to Live Well
The guide I wish I'd had before moving to Paris.
Twenty years ago, I relocated to France with more dreams than practical knowledge. Since then, I've built a life across multiple countries and helped thousands of clients do the same - learn what works, what doesn't, and what nobody tells you in the glossy blogs.
21 Places to Live Well is my insider's perspective on the destinations I know intimately - either from living there, visiting repeatedly, or helping clients relocate successfully.
I cover what genuinely matters: Can you actually get a visa? Will you feel safe walking home at night? Can you find your people? Will the bureaucracy break you, or is it manageable? Can you work remotely and still have a life?
Whether you're seriously planning a move or just beginning to wonder "what if?" - this guide gives you the real story.
Get the guide. See what living abroad could actually look like for you in 21 Places to Live Well.

I've been thinking about this for a while—how to share what I've learned. How to capture the conversations I have constantly with friends over dinner, the advice I give walking through neighborhoods, the insights that come from actually living between cities rather than just visiting them. So here it is: Letters From Abroad - a newsletter for those living abroad, those wishing to live abroad, and those who navigate the line between home and away.

ABOUT
Susie Hollands has spent twenty years following her clients' stories across Europe and beyond. Her insatiable curiosity about what makes places and people come alive has taught her more than any guidebook could: wisdom gathered from market vendors in Provence, aperitivo hours in Milan, and countless conversations about what keeps expats falling in love with Paris over and over again. These letters are love notes from twenty years of restless curiosity and life on the road.
