Sober Awkward5 Marras 2023

Pissed-up Abroad

Vic and Hamish have both lived abroad. One thing they noticed was that no matter the country, expat communities have an odd booze philosophy - drink as much as you can, as often as possible.

It’s not shock to find out that separation from friends and family, loneliness, and the need to fit in to this new environment could lead to a bit of over doing it. Expat life disrupts your usual routines and makes you feel like you're on an endless holiday..... but could it be a slippery slope towards addiction?

So, today Vic and Hamish look back at some very messy times living in boozy expat communities and question if they went away to discover the world and further their 'careers'.... or to hide the fact that they were both over drinking?
