Work is not the most crucial thing in life, but still pretty important I’d say! I believe that having a fulfilling career can support us in making our dreams a reality, which is why I’ve been working to build one for myself as well as helping others do that too.
When you work in corporate, you’re expected to be high-performing, adaptable, confident in leading both younger and older colleagues, and also to be able to work effectively internationally. You may need to work remotely with colleagues from various offices around the world, support various global projects, or who knows - maybe even move abroad for work too.
That can be a lot of pressure. Good news is - it’s manageable!
If you’re energised by the idea of growing your international experience and building a truly global career - you’re in the right place.
Project Abroad is designed to help you overcome various challenges you may face in your international corporate career, support you in reaching and nailing the next steps in your professional development, guide you through an international relocation, or even figuring out your aspirations and goals in the first place.
If you’re aware of something, you can do something about it..

How to avoid 5 common corporate traps that impact your career?
Hi, I'm Marta!
I'm a psychologist by education, HR specialist and coach by experience, as well as an expat and a recent re-pat by choice.
I’ve always been close to a lot of ‘intercultural’ things. Starting with a real passion for an atlas and it proving to be the most interesting read ever, through starting to learn foreign languages, singing in a choir which hosted international festivals, to getting a corporate job in HR, having regular exposure to people from various global offices, getting CQ & Transformational coaching certified.
I love supporting other professionals in building their international careers. You can learn more about my qualifications and experience here.
In 2015 I decided to move abroad. I wanted to get some more day-to-day international exposure and experience by myself, to see what it’s like to live in a different country. I moved to London, UK, and after living there for 9+ years I have recently moved back to Poland and am now navigating my repatriation adjustment.
This website started as my expat blog project. Project: Abroad. It was about me navigating “the abroad”, adjusting to the new country and building my career here. With time it grew to be more than just a blog. I want to keep discovering “the abroad”, helping you successfully go through the ups and downs of working internationally and progressing your global career. Regardless of whether you’re working with colleagues from abroad out of your home country, or living and working in another culture yourself.
