I have moved abroad alone, learned a foreign language, barely survived culture shock and returned home burnt out, navigated reverse culture shock, and then built a life as an immigrant in Australia.
I have failed at this. That lived experience - combined with formal training and expertise - is rare. You won't find this anywhere else.
