What’s it really like to leave the U.S. and start a new life in Europe as a Black woman?
In this candid conversation, I’m joined by returning guest and fellow expat Maureen Jenkins, a writer and global citizen currently living in Amsterdam. Together, we reflect on our journeys, sharing what we’ve learned, what we’ve loved, and what we’ve left behind in our Blaxit to Europe.
We’ll talk about:
✔️ Navigating Europe as Black women
✔️ Our favorite things about life abroad
✔️ Upcoming travel plans to Nice & Monaco
✔️ What we miss (and don’t miss) about the U.S.
✔️ And answer your live Ask an Expat questions!
Whether you’re planning your own move abroad, curious about life in Amsterdam, or just here for some real talk and Black joy—you’re in the right place.
