About the host

Hi! I’m Chandra Alley and I have been living abroad as an expat for over 6 years.

I have lived in two different countries with my husband and 4 children and have learned the arts of pivoting during pitfalls, traveling tastefully for less, and soaking in amazing new cultures without losing my own.

I enjoy traveling and exploring with my family and feel most like myself hanging out with friends or whenever I can be near the ocean.

Chandra's soothing voice & relatable stories about expat life will keep you wanting more! She keeps things lighthearted & fun, but still dives into the (not always so fun) reality of being an expat. Give Expatriotical a listen & subscribe so you don't miss any episodes! You won't regret it!

Having been an expat myself for three years, I can totally identify with Chandra's ups and downs in the initial process of moving overseas! This is a great resource for anyone about to, in the midst of, or reflecting back on their experiences. Looking forward to future episodes!

The Expatriotical Podcast with Chandra is a gem! I look forward to listening to what she and her guests have to share each week. Chandra's insights are relevant and very relatable for both new/fresh and old/seasoned expats. Keep going because it think it's worth it!
