Introduction

An expatriate (sometimes shortened to expat) is a person temporarily or permanently residing

in a country and culture other than that of the person's upbringing. The word comes from the
Latin terms ex ("out of") and patria ("country, fatherland").
In other words,
An expatriate is someone who has chosen to live in a country other than the one in which he or
she legally resides. Most often, an expatriate is a citizen of a Western nation who has chosen to
live in a non-Western country, such as one in South America, Asia, or Africa. Occasionally,
someone who is living in a different Western country than the one in which he or she has
citizenship is referred to as an expatriate, but this usage is less frequent.
