What are the highs and lows of working in an international team? Christa, the Team Lead People Experience at InterNations, talks about intercultural misunderstandings and innovating forces in the diverse melting pot that is InterNations.

It’s easy to forget, but returning to your home country is often the final stage of your expat journey. Many internationals underestimate the challenges of going from expat to “re-patriate”.
We wanted to get insights on what coming back home after years as an expat is really like. So we decided to ask some of our team members who recently returned from a stay abroad.
Was it easy to pick up where they left off? Are they still reeling from the reverse culture shock? And what advice would they give to expats currently considering their own repatriation?

InterNations offers up to 6,000 events worldwide every year. That’s 6,000 opportunities to meet interesting, international people, both face-to-face and online. And sometimes, event attendees may also run into us — members of the InterNations team.
InterNations is not only the largest international community for people who live and work abroad. Many of our team members are also expats and enjoy the chance to socialize with other global minds. Some of us have made use of our remote-first setup to move to a different city and are rebuilding personal networks. Others are just looking for people to share hobbies and interests with.
In any case, for InterNations team members from across the company, using our own product is eye-opening and inspiring. It helps unlock insights that you can’t get unless you experience the heart of our product — our events and activities — for yourself. Here’s what we learned this year.
