From Welsh Rugby to Expat- Sion Bennett’s Expat Journey

In this episode of The Expat Property Portfolio, I sit down with Sion Bennett to explore a truly unique expat story. Sion went from captaining Wales U16s and playing alongside world-class athletes to dealing with injuries, career crossroads, and a last-minute choice that moved him from the UK to Hong Kong.

We dive into:

- How a professional sports mindset helps in building wealth
- Why feedback, discipline, and high-performance habits are important in property
- Sion’s transition from rugby to life as an expat
- How he began investing in property overseas
- How he now helps other expats build and grow their property portfolios
- Insights into managing life, work, and property investment as an expatriate
- The lessons he’s learned while navigating property markets away from home

It’s a conversation about mindset, opportunity, and making bold decisions, both on and off the pitch, in sport and property alike.
