Hello and welcome to another episode of Two Fat Expats where we believe you should live a fat expat life, live it to the max and make the most out of every moment.

This week we’re talking to two amazing expats who are doing extraordinary things in their expat life. Dr Erik left his medical practice in Beverly Hills working with famous actors and actresses to start a new life overseas. Firstly with Doctors without Borders and then with The Clinton Foundation. Dr Erik now lives in Thailand working for a medical clinic. He has done it all and seen it all and you’ll love his interview.

A big thank you to the lovely Jane, an Australian expat living in Hong Kong. With three young children at home, Jane still found time to dedicate to a group of refugee women and teaches them how to sew.
