I spent nearly all of my journalism career abroad in Europe and Asia. I had a fantastic time and loved every minute of it. I covered business and fashion/retail so none of it was dangerous like war reporting obviously. Got to travel, talk to people all over the world. I would not have changed a thing about it. I would do it all again!
Just a combination of circumstances. I got a good job offer in New York and felt the need to come back to the states for a while for personal and family reasons. I hope to head back overseas someday. I miss the expat life a lot!
Hi, I am a reporter for CNN, and I have worked as a war correspondent twice, I am currently applying to cover Ukraine, in my experience, it is super cool this job is full of adrenaline and you learn a lot about the military cultures of the different countries.
Hi, I'm a soccer sports correspondent in the UK, working for the SKY network in the USA. If you are a family person being a correspondent is difficult at first, but when you have your family with you it's great, because as a correspondent you have a lot of work in a certain amount of time, but you can also enjoy long days without work, but you still get paid, as is my case.
I would like to know a little more about your question because the case varies depending on what type of correspondent you speak of, war correspondents are always in action and it is for those who like this type of work, there are sports correspondents and correspondents of international news, it all depends on the focus.
I have worked as a journalist in other countries. It can be a really rewarding experience, but it can also be dangerous. You have to be able to deal with a lot of stress and be able to work independently. It's also important to be able to adapt to new cultures quickly.
I did work as a stringer for a couple of years in the late 1990s. It was an interesting experience. I mostly wrote for business journals, so I didn't get to do much reporting on the ground. But it was fascinating to see how the sausage gets made - to see how the media works, and to see how governments operate behind the scenes.
