About this title

Review:

“Mackay Nails It: Move up by moving abroad.”
“Mackay’s savvy guide on ‘moving up by moving abroad’ is packed with inspiring stories and tips. It reads as though a knowledgeable friend is digging deep to give you her very best advice and Mackay doesn’t disappoint. My favorite aspect of this useful book is the breadth of topics discussed — everything from relationships (and moving’s effect on them), to cultural adaptation, to getting up the gumption and grit to make a big leap abroad is addressed. I love Mackay’s attention to challenging the status quo by having a healthy fear of settling. This book can help any person inhale a deep breath, feel assured, and take that exciting risk they’ve been wanting to pursue!”
