    Mate, I've been 'expat' for the last 5 or 6 years.

    Particularly in design, it sucks... reason is, that you have to know your market. If you haven't lived or at least travelled often to where your client wants to sell/promote/etc., you'd be in a very bad position to design a campaign.

    Do the following test: go to a comedy club (or watch one in youtube) and see how many jokes/gags you get. That will give you a good idea about how can you perform in another country.

    If your role is purely technical -e.g. you are a developer- there's nothing to worry (leaving aside angry dolphins, that is).
