Burn up or Splash Down

Just like a space shuttle struggles and strains to re-enter the earth's atmosphere, so those returning from living overseas can find themselves confused and in a state of panic at coming home. While people anticipate that going overseas will require major changes in their lifestyles and thinking, few anticipate the difficulties they will face upon return.

Intended to aid the re-entry process, this encouraging, and insightful book deals with these important subjects:

adapting to the passport culture

identifying areas of potential struggle

dealing with the emotional challenges

finding a new job, a new place to live, learning the social mores

returning is not coming home it is leaving home

facilitating a smooth transition for those on the receiving end
