Smile Abroad Club

Join Now for weekly group coaching and the tools you need to successfully move abroad.

€39,00 EUR every month

Weekly Support, Real Progress.

 Move abroad with confidence, community, and a clear plan, without guessing your way through it. 

If you have the dream, the timeline, and about 100 open tabs, this is for you.

Smile Abroad Club is the membership for people who want to relocate abroad (especially to Albania) and do it smarter, faster, and with support from people who have actually done it. You get guidance, real-world tools, live help, and a community that turns “someday” into booked flights, a plan, and progress.

What you get when you join

Weekly live support and accountability

 Show up with questions, leave with next steps. We meet regularly so you do not stall out or spiral into research mode. 

A community that gets it

Connect with people at your exact stage: dreaming, planning, downsizing, scouting, applying, landing, and settling in.

Step-by-step playbooks

Clear checklists and templates that remove friction from the biggest bottlenecks: paperwork, banking, housing, residency, moving logistics, and “what do I do first?”

Trusted resources and referral

We share vetted contacts, tools, and practical workflows. 


 

What’s inside the membership

  • Weekly group calls (Q&A + hot seats + action plans)

  • The Move Abroad in 90 Days framework (timeline + milestones)

  • Residency and relocation walkthroughs (Albania-focused, with broader EU reality checks)

  • Housing and neighborhood guidance (what’s legit, what’s a trap, what’s normal locally)

  • Budgeting and cost-of-living tools (so your plan matches your actual life)

  • Packing, selling, downsizing, and shipping playbooks 

  • Community hub hosted on Kajabi 

  • Member-only deals and perks (where applicable)

  • Updates as things change (rules, processes, and on-the-ground reality)


 

Who this is for

You will love the Club if you are:

  • Ready to move abroad in the next 3 to 12 months 

  • Curious about Sarandë, coastal Albania, or using Albania as a home base for Europe

  • Overwhelmed by paperwork and planning, but motivated to take action

  • A remote worker, business owner, or early retiree who needs a realistic plan

  • Done with vague inspiration and ready for actual steps


 

The outcomes members want (and actually get)

  • A clear move timeline with weekly progress

  • Confidence about where to live, how to arrive, and what to do first

  • Less anxiety because you have people to ask before you guess

  • Fewer expensive mistakes (bad rentals, wrong paperwork order, sketchy intermediaries)

  • A practical path to residency, daily life, and community


 

How it works

  1. Join and get immediate access to the member hub

  2. Start with the roadmap (we point you to the right first steps)

  3. Bring your questions to the weekly call

  4. Follow the plan with community support and accountability

From research to real life

After three years of research, they made the move.

“I was very impressed with their level of detail in regards to creating an actionable plan. … We made the move to Albania and it has been truly an amazing experience. … As one last thought, we are still members of the Smile Abroad group as we are constantly learning new information about living in Albania.”

What you’re joining

A regular place to get unstuck.

Moving abroad is a series of decisions. The Club gives you ongoing support as the questions change—from choosing a destination to preparing for arrival.

Talk through the next decision

Join the Monday group call with your questions about timing, preparation, housing, and everyday life abroad. Learn from the questions other members bring, too.

02

Go deeper on the details

Use the member calendar to find travel sessions, pet travel calls, and other focused conversations relevant to your plans.

03

Have people to turn to

Join group conversations, connect one-to-one with like-minded members, and find relevant discussions and resources in channels organized around specific topics.

Can’t join live? Catch up with over a year of call replays and access the chat transcripts from every call.

Bring your real questions

What’s standing between you and the next step?

You don’t need a finished plan to join. You need something you want to work out.

What should I get in order before leaving the U.S.?
How can I use a scouting trip to decide whether Albania fits?
What should I consider before choosing a rental or neighborhood?
Where should I start when planning travel with my pet?

A member’s experience

“For anyone considering living or moving abroad, their YouTube content and the Smile Abroad community tackle real-world questions and provide solutions. What makes them different is their firsthand knowledge.

…

Their consistency, generosity, and thoughtful guidance gave me the confidence and sense of community to actually go for it.”

The people behind Smile Abroad.

If you found us through YouTube, you know we share the practical side of building a life abroad. The Club brings that conversation closer—with time for member questions and firsthand perspective from life in Albania.

Our deepest local experience is in Albania. If you’re still comparing countries, you’re welcome to bring your questions about preparation and what to investigate next.

Membership

Give your move a regular place in your week.

Choose monthly flexibility or a full year of support. Both options include the same Club membership.

The Club is a good fit if you’re seriously exploring a move, preparing for a scouting trip, or working through what needs to happen before you go.

Stay connected as your questions change—from “Could this work for me?” to “What should I sort out next?”

Private consultations and professional services are separate from membership.

Before you join

A few useful answers.

Do I need to have chosen Albania already?

No. You can join while seriously exploring your options. Albania is where our strongest local experience is, and the Club is especially relevant if it’s on your shortlist.

What makes this different from watching YouTube?

The videos introduce ideas and share our experience. The Club gives you recurring live conversations, a calendar of focused sessions, and a community where you can bring questions about your own preparations.

Do I need to attend every call?

No. Join live when it works for you, or catch up later. Members can replay calls from over the past year and access chat transcripts from every call. You can also stay connected through group conversations and one-to-one chats with other members.

Is this private relocation support?

The Club provides group guidance, shared experience, and community. Private consulting, residency applications, property services, and professional legal or tax advice are separate services.

How does billing and cancellation work?

Monthly membership is €39 per month, with no long-term commitment. You can cancel your monthly subscription at any time. The 12-month option is €299 paid upfront. Membership payments are non-refundable.

You don’t have to have it all figured out.
