Welcome to the Truly Expat Travel Podcast. I'm your host Paula and this is season two. 

On season one, I talk to expats about their favourite holiday destination. 

On season two, I'll be doing things very differently. I'll be chatting to expats about where they currently live, why they chose that destination, all those secret hidden gems that only locals know, you know, like favourite restaurants, best neighbourhoods.

things that tourists don't.
