If you're pondering living overseas for an extended time period, if not permanently, then you've probably been surfing the web looking at sites like International Living and Escape Artist. That's good, they have lots of information.
However, ExpatFinder has created a list of 100+ Twitter accounts of real, live people living in all parts of the world as expatriates. Connect with folks like these, and get the inside scoop on your dream destination:
