Expat Bloggers – Europe, a Facebook group

July 25, 2014 by Lois Britton 8 Comments

 

There seems to be a Facebook group for any interest you may have. I’ve become friends with someone who lives in our subdivision in Tucson because we belong to the same gardening group. Ā Here’s how Expat Bloggers Europe came to join the ranks of FB groups.

I applied to join a group for expat bloggers and got tired of waiting to be added to the group, so together with some friends, we started our own! (The original group did finally add me, many months later.) Ā Our group started small, but has been growing big enough that people are noticing us. I guess you can feel like you’ve arrived when you’re turning down people who have no connection to your topic but want to join your group.

I’m mentioning this in case you’re reading this and happen to be an expat living in and blogging about Europe. You can find our group onĀ Facebook “Expat Bloggers – Europe” and ask to join. It’s a place where you can ask questions and share expertise. We promote and encourage each other, and provide perspective in challenging situations. For example, what wouldĀ you do when someone comments on all of your blog posts and wants to argue with you about everything you’ve said, including how you take your coffee?Ā How crazy is that?

I’m going to share with you a little bit about the other bloggers in our group, but first I’ll take a moment for shameless self-promotion. Polish Housewife has a Facebook page; let me invite you to stop by and “like” our page. You’ll find tidbits about about Poland and life here that might not make it to a blog post and interesting discussions happening in the comments. I hope you’ll join in.

My blogging friendsĀ are an interesting group with a variety of interests beside the multicultural aspect of our lives.Ā Let me introduce you to some of our group and I’ll share more bloggers in the days to come: swirl small

And 2 Makes Crazy — Brooke and I areĀ both from Arizona but met in Poznan. She writes an incredibly funny and inspiring blog about her life as a parent and missionary here in Poland. She and her husband came to Poland 13 years ago. They now have 3 children.
Anula’s Kitchen — is written by Anna, a Polish woman living in Ireland with her husband and their two daughters. She loves to cook and bake. We’ve been reading each other’s blogs since before she was a mom, and she often answers my questions about Polish cuisine.
Blog — by my Israeli friend, Yana. Most posts are in Hebrew, and since I know a lot of pastors, that will be interesting for some of you, but if you’re like me and need to read in English, be sure to check out this post about Christmas and her experience growing up in Russia.
Chasing the Donkey — SJ is an Australian expat living in Croatia with her Croatian husband and son. She writes about life in their small village, gardening, cooking, traveling, and wine making.
Chido-fajnyĀ — David is from Mexico City. He met his Polish girlfriend while part of an exchange program in Paris. He currently lives in Warsaw. He’sĀ pursuingĀ Ā a master’s degree inĀ InternationalĀ Business at the Warsaw School of Economics.

      It really is, SJ. Virtually and sometimes in person! I’m glad we connected. Our city hosted a lot of Croatians during Euro 2012.
