Having
moved sixteen times across four continents, speaking
four languages (Arabic, French, English and
Portuguese), Leslie's world is truly
international. Leslie conceived the Living In Series
and now coordinates a team of researchers and
writers around the world. All books in the Series
are based on personal tested and trusted
experiences.
Of Lebanese origin, Leslie left her home country for
the first time at the age of 17 in order to pursue
her university education. French educated, Leslie
had to learn quickly in her first Anglo-Saxon home
how to adapt in order to take full advantage of the
many
opportunities which presented themselves to her.
Every time a move comes along, new lessons are
learned. This gives her the ability to explain
through her books in a clear yet simple way the
different cultures which exist around the world. Her
readers will be aware that each city they move to,
conduct business in or visit distinguishes itself
from any other they might be familiar with despite
the existing similarities. This includes cities
within a same country as well as cities close to one
another geographically.
Familiar with the corporate world, Leslie enjoys
interacting with people at all levels. Communication
is one of Leslie’s strengths and passion. The Living
In Series will help readers familiarize themselves
and anticipate what to expect when coming to a new
city for a visit, on business and/or when
considering a move there. By going beneath the
surface, the reader will feel the true heart beat of
the city. |
