Looking for Brit expat bloggers for guest posts

Hi,

I'm looking for British bloggers living abroad to write guest posts for my blog, Tales of a Brit Abroad (http://talesofabritabroad.blogspot.com/).

I've just moved from Madrid to London but would like to keep the blog going, so I thought it would be a good idea to feature a monthly post from other 'Brits abroad' in different countries.

I am looking for posts of around 800 words on your experiences in the country, fairly light-hearted and funny but informative. In return I'll feature links to your own blog.

Please let me know if you would be interested by commenting here or sending me a message on Twitter (@katebritabroad).

Thanks!

Hi Kate, I'm currently living in Bahrain with my family and blogging about our life and travels here. I'd be interested in writing a guest post for you sometime. Kate (www.kecarey.blogspot.com)

Hi Kate,
Sounds great to me! I think that would be really interesting - just taken a look at your blog. If you could send me about 800 words on your experiences in Bahrain, why you moved there, some anecdotes and some photos if possible that would be wonderful. The first expat post should be going up soon so I can pass that on to you so you can see the kind of thing I mean.
Thanks,
Kate

OK, great. Will aim to get something to you in the next weeks. I'm travelling until 15 September, so would end September be OK for you?

Hi Kate, are you still keeping this blog alive? It wouldn't load when I tried to open it - could be a slow connection or could be down. I am a British citizen living in New Zealand (though was born and raised in South Africa - lived in UK for 10 years to become 'cultured'! and in 5 months going for NZ citizenship) and would love to write of my tale of adjusting to Wellington (NZ). If my stories and travels fit in with your blog - then let me know.

Hi Kerry-Ann,
Yes, most definitely! Haven't written anything for a couple of weeks but it's still there - www.talesofabritabroad.blogspot.com. That sounds great to me, would love you to write something about adjusting to Wellington life! I'm looking for around 800-1000 words, ideally with some photos if possible. Thanks!
