Hi,


End of summer is always the time for more new features on Easy Expat. And this year is not different from the others, as we have the pleasure to announce two new cities on EasyExpat. You will find now a lot of information on Dubai [ http://www.easyexpat.com/dubai_en.htm ] and Shanghai [ http://www.easyexpat.com/shanghai_en.htm ].

The first city (Dubai) is a very popular destination for expatriates and a big hit on EasyExpat's forums (especially on the French one). Shanghai, and more generally China, is proven to become more and more attractive as the future destination for a lot of expats.

As usual we encourage you to add your own comments and send your contribution to enhance the contents using our contrib form [ http://www.easyexpat.com/mod/contrib_en.htm ](link at the bottom of each article).

We have also reorganised the forums [ http://www.easyexpat.com/forums/index_en.htm ], in order to devide clearly the sections by destination: Europe (with Work, Accommodation, Life and Get-together), USA&Canada, Middle East, Asia and the Rest of the world (including Australia).

We remind you about our FREE BLOG service. Why not start this post-summer time with a blog activity? EasyExpat offers its own FREE blog service [ http://www.blogexpat.com/ ]. A blog is an interactive website, easy to administrate, half way between the normal "static" website and a forum. You can join the community and talk about yourself, your experiences, things that you read, political events...everyday or once a week... it does not matter as it is YOUR space.

You can imagine how handy it is for an expat:
- you can put your photos on the Internet easily so all you friends to see and comment upon;
- if you are travelling you can keep your readers informed of your trip;
- you are abroad for a certain period (Erasmus, au pair...) and you want to share your experiences;
- you live in another country and want to discuss the differences in culture;
- share all the little cultural nuances;
- etc.

Your new blog will have the following format: http://.blogexpat.com. Then everybody can remember it easily.

Easy Expat, already well known on the Internet, offers you - by opening a blog on the portal - the way of being immediatly linked to the expat community. All the latest messages will appear on the Blog's page [ http://www.blogexpat.com/ ].

In addition to the message, admin, link and photos functionalities, you can also fully customize your blog. You will find tips on EasyExpat's blog [ http://easyexpat.blogexpat.com/ ] and you can also post messages and ask for help on the dedicated forum [ http://www.easyexpat.com/forums/forum_35.htm ].


Last, but not least, may I remind you that if you want to organise a long weekend or a trip abroad, you can use our service with EasyExpat Travel [ http://travel.easyexpat.com/en/index.htm ].


Happy reading, happy blogging!
