The longer I have been living abroad, the more I think that being international is really about going back eventually to your home country.
When you go abroad is nice to stay long so that you can really change your mindset for ever and take full advantage of a new of world opportunities that suddenly appears in front of your eyes. So was my experience. But after that, once your metamorphosis into a new person is completed, once you you feel that you can receive less abroad than you can give in your come country, then it may be time to go back.
Apart from Spain, I have been living in 4 countries for periods longer than one year. I could keep on moving to new countries every couple of years. But what is point? In fact, after almost one decade abroad, I do think I can do more in Spain than abroad, and I do think that my experience will more valuable for Spain or in Spain than for or in any other country. As a result, I am more and more convinced that, after my MBA in Chicago, I would like to either work for a Spanish company abroad or work in Spain in something related to International Business.
The video I have added to illustrate this post is the main theme of the soundtrack from Pedro Almodovar’s Volver. A very Spanish film and a very Spanish (or Agentinian) song whose title means “Coming back”.
