Beschreibung

Drawing on the author's own experiences as an aid worker, as well as extensive original interviews and desk research, the book looks at the challenges faced by those who aspire to a family life, from dating and finding a partner who is happy to move, to being away from home and family, finding childcare, and settling children in new places.
