Coming back to the USA after living abroad really hits different… especially your wallet.
In this video, I share my real experience visiting family back home, driving again, and quickly realizing just how expensive everything has become — from gas and food to everyday basics. It definitely puts things into perspective when you’ve been living in Southeast Asia where your money stretches so much further.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s great to be back and see family… but wow, the cost of living is on another level.
If you’ve ever traveled or lived abroad and then returned to the U.S., you probably know exactly what I mean.
