In this episode of the Blaxit Global podcast, I sit down with Maureen Jenkins, a corporate storyteller, former journalist, and passionate citizen of the world. A Chicago native with an impressive travel résumé spanning nearly 40 countries and territories, Maureen shares her journey of living as a four-time expat. From the artistic streets of Florence to the romantic outskirts of Paris, the sun-drenched Caribbean island of Sint Maarten, and now the vibrant canals of Amsterdam, Maureen has cultivated a life rich in global experiences.
We’ll explore her love for international travel, her passion for storytelling through food and culture, and her reflections on living abroad. Maureen’s insights will inspire you to pack your bags and step into your own adventure. Tune in for a candid conversation filled with humor, wisdom, and practical tips for navigating expat life.
