The Xpat App

The answer is YES!!! My life has changed in amazing ways since finding this app!! I have been an expat for 21+ years but now I am living free and staying connected to community!! Merci Danke Thanks Gracias!!!

I’m so grateful for this app and the ability to connect with other like-minded people. I’m glad that shar winter put this global community together. I love that where sharing ideas and getting support and finding community.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I really want to be a fan of this app. Every few weeks my email becomes invalid and I can’t sign in, I can’t sign up again and I can’t change my password.

I have been a member of the XPAT community for more than a year I’m sure. I have enjoyed the positive dialogue between people who are already living abroad, and those people who are aspiring to live abroad. The conversations are always respectful and helpful. It’s a great space ❤️

I enjoy being a part of this community even though I don't come to it a lot ( working on it), I love the info, the podcast interviews, etc! Huge shoutout to Shar for making this happen

Great app! Thank you Shar Wynter, you really outdid yourself!! Building community at home while we’re working towards leaving the states as well as after with a community of folks doing the same, folks who understand the stressors of uprooting everything for peace, safety, and basic respect of humanity had made the process so much easier.

I am so grateful for this app, which allows folks (especially of color) to connect from around the World! This app is ESPECIALLY handy when planning a trip OR move abroad! You can actually build connections in your destination B4 you embark on your journey. So thankful for the app creator!! She’s absolutely brilliant!!

This app is such a flawless opportunity to be in a safe travel space online! I only joined less than 48 hours ago and have already feel like I’ve made some wonderful connections. Beware⚠️This app is addictive and healthy for your mental well being!☺️. If you are looking for an app to make connections, network, friendships, relationships, get tips, advice and positive energy then THIS IS THE APP FOR YOU!🫵🏾. Hope to meet you there😉

I was muted after pointing out that a white man was giving race-related “advice” on the app based on his “research”. He was highlighting racism abroad in a country he had never been to, folks. Peak cringe, I know! I was currently in that country and found his advice to be out of pocket and expressed this. I see now that I was a bit of a fool thinking the app was a safe space for Black women. I naively brought this to the attention of the creator’s account. Shar the creator had previously reached out to me for a spotlight feature which could have been cute. When I flagged that this white man was interacting on posts not based on his lived experience (as a white man dealing with/witnessing anti-Black racism), I was muted. Or rather, when I made a post addressed to Black people only, I was muted. As a woman I think it is important to have safe spaces to communicate within our community but such a place has yet to be created. This white man remains on the app, probably giving race-related advice he knows nothing about, but such is life. I must say that I enjoyed the app before I flagged the presence of white men unironically weighing in on racism abroad.
