The idea of home is a universal one — it resonates with everyone. But what happens when home becomes more than one place? Join us in the first episode of “Always an Expat” as we delve into this intriguing concept with Serra Kiziltan, a UK-native who has made the United States her second home for over two decades.  

Serra's journey is one that implores us all to think beyond borders and cultural differences. From recounting her days studying architecture under an iconic mentor at Yale to the reality of navigating U.S. immigration, Serra's story is a testament to resilience. So, allow us to take you on a journey filled with architectural marvels, cultural anomalies, linguistic adventures, and the unique experiences of an expat. 

I'm Richard Taylor, from Plan First Wealth. I'll be bringing you captivating interviews with people who have embarked on incredible journeys, and experienced life in different countries. 

Discover how our bold guests have chased their dream across the pond, hopping time-zones and navigating cultural change, and learn from their experiences along the way.  

This isn’t a peacocking exercise – Always an Expat follows real people who have faced some real challenges, but have also had the time of their lives in a new home.
