CURATING LIFE BETWEEN PLACES

Living culturally and intentionally in the in-between.

Reflections and insights on living, working, and growing across cultures with a global mindset.

For Expats, by Expat

The combination of having lived and worked on four continents, holding a Master’s in International Business, a postgraduate diploma in Strategic Management, and teaching corporate English and intercultural skills to professionals around the world, has given me broad experience in guiding individuals and organizations through meaningful global transitions.

The Life Between Places

My Cultural Background

_

  • Grew up in Poland, educated in London and Japan, worked across 4 continents
  • Lived long-term in Panama, the UK, the US, Japan—not just visited
  • Did field research on economic barriers to tourism development in Cuba, and sustainable supply chain management in China
  • Advocate of minimalist seasonal living: one suitcase, many lives
  • 20+ years of ski experience, though now you’ll find me chasing palm trees and sunshine
  • Never used professional relocation services—built a lifestyle through personal design

Global living

I offer something rare, as I am someone who has actually lived across countries—understands systems, emotions, logistics, and identity. That’s insight, and insight is extremely valuable for relocation, travel design, destination branding, and global living.
