If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this it?” this book says, empathically, “Nope. Here’s your boarding pass.”
Synopsis: Post-COVID, author and entrepreneur Michael M. Clements sold everything, left America, and moved his family to Bali. Then came the 2024 U.S. election, and with it, a flood of messages: “How did you do it?” This book is his answer. Drawing on his personal experiences relocating to Japan, Hong Kong, and Indonesia, Clements combines memoir with actionable advice to help readers explore life beyond the United States. Structured around practical chapters—from overcoming fear and evaluating visas to parenting abroad and managing money—How to Leave America … And Become More American is more than a how-to; it’s a wake-up call to reexamine identity, freedom, and what it means to be American. With activities, personal stories, and punchy insights, the book empowers readers to live globally and think expansively, without losing their roots. Plus: where would America, and the world, be if Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, Steve Jobs, Maya Angelou, MLK, Mark Twain, or Prince had never left the homeland?
