We want the ‘Fun’ and ‘Glamour.’

But sometimes we get ‘the Lost.’

A move abroad or cross-country often sounds glamorous, exciting, and like a brand-new start. We imagine the cafes, the culture, and the spontaneous new friends.

But then when the boxes are unpacked and we realize this is life now, we can find ourselves wandering around unfamiliar streets, feeling a little lost or like we don’t have anyone to share our experiences with…

This is where Gratitude Buddies can support you.

We want you to feel “at home” faster in your new home.

Our Mindful Village Relocation Support is a multi-faceted program that supports your emotional needs either before or after a move.

How it works

We begin with a conversation about what matters most to you — your interests, routines, values, and the kind of life you want to build in your new environment.

Within two weeks, you’ll receive a personalized Village Report and Mindful Village Map highlighting meaningful places and opportunities for connection. We map the people, places, and rhythms that help belonging grow. Each recommendation is chosen to help you pause, breathe, explore, and begin creating your life in a new place. It’s about finding 'Third Spaces' that act as the scaffolding for your emotional well-being.

Your report may include:

• Cafés

• Classes and workshops

• Parks and nature spaces

• Libraries

• Social media accounts to follow

• Facebook groups

• Therapists or support resources

• Community spaces aligned with your interests

We follow up with another call after you move to check on you. In the meantime, your welcome to actively connect with other Buddies on our website and swap time, skills and appreciation.

GBs is a global community, with many expat members. Our founder is a 3x expat who has supported hundreds of people with emotional regulation, mindful parenting and cultivating belonging. She also teaches a course on Mindfulness of Home and Belonging.
