Real conversations about culture, travel, reinvention, and life beyond your borders.

Meet Your Host

I’m Al B, a retired U.S. Air Force veteran who traded military life for a new chapter in Belgium. As the host of Abrotha Abroad, I explore what life beyond your home country really looks like through honest conversations with travelers, expats, entrepreneurs, and everyday people. From culture shocks and career pivots to unexpected opportunities and personal reinvention, we share the wins, struggles, surprises, and lessons that come with building a life abroad because living overseas is about far more than collecting passport stamps.
