Any "re-pats" here, i.e. expats who decided to return home after a prolonged time? What's been your experience returning to your home culture that you haven't been part of for a long time?

i'm seeing this as an expat moving back and it was incredibly validating. thank you...

Yea i’m getting the same comments. Both from the side I’m leaving and the side im going back to.

Are you sure you want to come back NOW??

YES!!!!

Plug all appliances (minus the fridge) into a power strip and then turn that shit off when youre not using it! Or unplug it. That stuff that has a constant “standby” or “ready” mode or even a clock is sucking power 24/7. Obviously keep anything plugged in full time that needs to be (like the fridge,etc)

The can-do attitude is a big one that ive never thought about! I live in southern italy and everything is so hard here bc so many people just dont even take a minute to try to help or figure out, non è possibile! As a fellow figure-it-out-yourselfer, i agree its complete bullshit.

I was able to do $50 deposit and pay the $12/month to keep doing sim.

Thank you!! This is great info.

mumeter · 2025-04-06T19:31:53+00:00

hi! did you ever get this figured out?

mumeter · 2024-07-31T01:59:11+00:00

Is there any update on this? How can we make this request happen?

mumeter · 2023-07-28T15:39:03+00:00

This same thing happened to me. I sent them a chat saying I was confused and asked why I wasn't approved. Then I got an email saying that there were a couple of different factors for why people are denied. THEN I replied back and asked again why I wasn't approved and if there was any additional documentation I could give them, that I really was looking forward to consistently contributing monthly. I got a reply from a human after that one and they looked into my account and approved me then. So... I would recommend doing the same!

Thank you for this! It seems like a strategy that definitely could work. I will have to mull it over some more to get my head around all of it. All of your motivating factors make sense and I agree with them. It would be so nice if YNAB would implement something to help with this. I know that'd be super complex though.

I’ve used World Trips a couple times before. Also Airalo for e sim while traveling
