Pedicore author of "How to Retire Overseas".
For more than 22 years, Kathleen was Editor and Publisher of

publishing group, Live and Invest Overseas, and a new free e-letter
service, the Overseas Opportunity Letter.

Had
enough?
Whether you find the government oppressive, the economy spiraling out
of
control, or if you simply want adventure, you’re not alone.
In increasing
numbers, the idea is talked about openly: Expatriate.
Over three hundred thousand Americans emigrate each year, and more than
a
million go to foreign lands for lengthy stays.
But picking up and moving to another country feels like a step into the
void.
Where to go? How to begin? What to do?
Volume 2 of the Process Self-Reliance Series, this smartly designed
two-color
guidebook walks you through the world of the expat: the reasons, the
rules, the
resources, and the tricks of the trade, along with compelling stories
and
expertise from expatriate Americans on every continent.
Getting Out
shows you where you can most easily gain residence,
citizenship, or work permits; where can you live for a fraction of the
cost of
where you’re living now; and what countries would be most
compatible with your
lifestyle, gender, age, or political beliefs.
So if you’ve had enough of what they’re selling
here and want to take your life
elsewhere—well, isn’t that the American way? At any
rate, it’s not illegal. Not
yet, anyway.

Parfitt -
My first book was accepted by the first publisher I approached, back in
1984. The book was 'French Tarts' and the publisher was Octopus. I went
on to have 13 word processing and desktop publishing handbooks
published by Macmillan, McGraw-Hill, Pitman and Paradigm, over the next
few years. By then I had become an 'expat wife' and was living in
Dubai. In 1993 we were posted to Oman, Word had become the only WP
program and so my other work dried up. Inspired by the landscape and
produce of Oman I decided to co-author another cookbook and create
Summertime Publishing in order to do it myself.
