The Newsletter
Every week, we're exploring global culture through the lens of the home. From floorplans to fixtures, we examine how houses are built, designed, and decorated around the world (with a side of sass, of course!)
The Podcast
The only podcast where we pass on the pyramids and poke around in the plumbing. Iβm Ash, and I'm, exploring the strange, smart, and wonderful ways houses are built, designed, and decorated around the world.
The Books
A new series of OTHER PEOPLE'S HOUSES books designed to help you try on a new life in different places around the worldβby getting to "go behind closed doors" inside local homes to discover what it's really like to live there.
Hello from Lancaster, Pa! This is inspiring me to take action on an idea that my husband and I have talked about for several YEARS!!
DOOO ITTTTT!!!!! I LOVE Lancaster. It’s only getting cuter and cuter – and I know it’s very up and coming. I remember one of my fellow grad assistants, when I was in grad school at West Chester, moved out there and she LOVED IT.
Universities: in Germany, they offer this as a perk for new professors. Relocation scouts help you find a kindergarden spot for your child, tell you where the best schools are, help with bureaucracy and accompany you to city hall, and even find new job options for your partner! They also host regular meetings to connect new people in the area. Especially helpful for foreign exchange professors who might not speak the language, or need help getting a visa. — This exists as a job at very few German universities, but is mostly outsourced to freelancers.
What *incredible* insight this is! This would be a killer niche, especially given the fact that there’s already a budget precisely FOR this type of thing. Oh, I love this suggestion!!!!!! And the one about the football clubs, too. Imagine?!
Yessss, and basically every semester (or season), there will be an an endless supply of new guest teachers, docents and professors as well as football players who change clubs, move to a new city, and have to start fresh with their entire families. Everything is SO last minute! They will be happy if someone helps them out. Even better if it’s not a faceless assistant but someone who is from the region, can act as a translator and knows an area like the back of their hand, right? — You could also do this in foreign countries: Help US-American athletes relocate to Europe, Italy, Spain, etc. … and start working, fast.
Also German football clubs offer this service for new players.
Athlets have very little time, and a lot of money π
