Hi, I'm Michelle. For over 11 years I’ve proudly called Kampot, Cambodia my home, and I still pinch myself that this is real life. Guests at Bohemiaz ask me every week how I made the leap—questions about cost of living, starting a business, finding the right location, and what expat life is really like. Those conversations lit a spark.
That ongoing curiosity inspired Bold Moves Abroad—a platform to help anyone ready to create their own life overseas. Next, we’ll be launching Bold Moves Abroad Expat Retreats, designed to give you a real taste of what expat life could look like for you.

If you’re considering a move abroad, I’d love to share what I’ve learned and help you plan a smooth, exciting transition. Your bold move abroad can start right here in Kampot, just like mine did.
Cambodia offers the kind of everyday experience that inspired me to create Bold Moves Abroad—life beyond a quick tourist trip and full of possibilities. The expat community here is incredibly welcoming, a lively mix of people from all over the world who make it easy to build real friendships and find your tribe. With its affordable cost of living and a growing economy, Cambodia opens doors for entrepreneurs, digital nomads, and anyone ready for a lifestyle upgrade.
Picture this: days off spent on pristine beaches, slow cruises along palm-lined rivers, or lazy afternoons by a resort pool. Evenings buzz with live music, street-side cocktails, and the easy laughter of new friends. It’s the kind of rich, connected life that Bold Moves Abroad is all about—showing you what’s possible when you take the leap and start your own bold move.
Whether you’re dreaming of Cambodia’s palm-lined rivers or a café in Lisbon, the foundation for a successful move is universal. You’ll need the same courage to take the leap, the same practical planning to handle visas and finances, and the same skills to build a new community wherever you land.
Bold Moves Abroad was created with exactly that in mind—guides, insights, and retreats that help you gain confidence, stay connected, and thrive in daily life no matter which country calls you. The steps may unfold on different continents, but the tools—and your ability to use them—are the same everywhere.
