An Aussie SLP in New Zealand (Auckland)

In March 2026, I had a chat with Voon, an Australian SLP living and working in Auckland, New Zealand. You may know that New Zealand, with its breathtaking landscapes, was the filming location for The Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies. But did you also know that New Zealand was the first country in the world where women could vote? And, given its positioning and time zone, it’s one of the earliest locations to kick off new year celebrations each year. Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to learn what life is like as an Aussie SLP in New Zealand 🇳🇿. 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and ⁠Instagram⁠ so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun). SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast. I record, edit and publish episodes while working full-time as an SLP (and travelling, of course!) If you enjoy listening to my podcast and want to buy me a coffee to show your support, I would greatly appreciate it. ☕️ ⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/slpsoverseas⁠ 🔗EVENT: Literacy Intervention for Older Students 🔗Skill Builders SLT Enjoy the episode!

Updates from an American SLP in Australia

Back at the start of 2025 I had a chat with Abby, an American SLP living and working on Bribie Island in Queensland, Australia. In early December, Abby and I caught up again, and I also met her partner Monique. They’ve had a big year in their business, and we wanted to give you all an update. Not only have they officially hired their first employee (also an American SLP) but they have released a resource to help other SLPs Overseas who are thinking of making the move abroad, specifically to Australia. In this episode you’ll hear about how undertaking the process of hiring an international SLP inspired the creation of this resource. Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure as we get an update on what life is like as an American SLP who has hired another American SLP in Australia 🇦🇺. 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠ so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun).

An American Tele-SLP in Costa Rica

In December 2025 I had a chat with Daphne, an American SLP working remotely via tele-therapy with clients in Alaska while living in Esterillos Oeste, Costa Rica. You may know that Costa Rica is located in Central America, with the Pacific Ocean on one side, the Caribbean Sea on the other and Nicaragua and Panama as its neighbours. But did you also know that Costa Rica has some of the most amazing nature and wildlife anywhere in the world? There are volcanoes, rainforests, beaches, birds, monkeys, turtles, sloths, and so much more. Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to discover what life is like as an American SLP working remotely for an American employer while living in Costa Rica 🇨🇷. 👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠ so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that's an airplane pun).
