About the course

You love visiting new places and learning about different cultures, but you want to do more than just scratch the surface. You want to know what it’s really like to immerse yourself in a new country and live like a local.
This course goes beyond keeping a travel diary. You’ll learn how to develop a journalling habit to record all those little moments and observations you don’t want to forget. Journalling about your overseas experiences also gives you the opportunity to explore that new side of yourself you’re discovering through your reactions to your adopted country.
During the next three weeks, you’ll find out how to get started with journalling about your new life. We’ll look at how you can find time to write, even on really busy days, and how you can begin to organise your thoughts.
You’ll discover how to use writing prompts to focus on particular aspects of life abroad. And we’ll also go into what you can do when you come across common writing problems such as self-doubt, perfectionism or feeling stuck for ideas.
You’ll also learn how to go deeper with your writing and experiment with different journalling formats and styles. At the end of the course, you’ll to get to explore different reasons for keeping a journal and set your own writing goals for the future.
Because you’ll be busy adjusting to your new surroundings, I’ve kept the course short and focused. You’ll only need 1 – 2 hours each week to work through the content and try out the journalling prompts.

Teacher & Writer
I help expats and migrants write about their overseas experiences by taking the fear out of writing and journalling. Born in New Zealand, I set out on my O.E. (Overseas Experience) after graduating from university and loved it so much I decided to stay abroad. Since then, I’ve lived in 3 different countries and travelled to many others. Currently, home is Melbourne, Australia.
I’ve taught writing classes in schools, businesses, universities and online. During this time, I’ve worked with expats, migrants and international students from a wide range of cultures. As well as keeping a regular journal, I also write short fiction.
Something I’ve learnt from both my own writing practice and helping others is that writing can be intimidating and scary. But it doesn’t have to be! Journalling or freewriting is one of the most approachable and enjoyable ways you can start recording all those amazing experiences you’re having in your new country.
