_{A Players Newsletter: Life Overseas}

Overseas Life with Elijah Bryant 🎙️

Playing overseas is not easy… but it is worth it!

Elijah and his family are headed back to Turkey for another season

• One question from this picture…

  • Why so many bags?

    • _{“We are living overseas, not camping. We are bringing our favorite things because we can’t ship our belongings to Turkey. So, we are packing items like vitamins, proteins, and toys. Toys in Turkey are super expensive.}

      _{I also don’t buy clothes overseas because I prefer getting items I like in America. Turkey does have good things, but it's a matter of preference. If you only had two bags to bring your favorite items, what would you bring? Keep in mind that I'm bringing clothes, recovery items, and vitamins, so there isn't much room.”}

"Anything Worthwhile Requires Sacrifices"

Our perspective in life has so much influence on our happiness, Elijah has a great perspective of making the sacrifice of living away from his home country by focusing on the blessings of being able to provide for his family and set them up for a great future.

Another huge blessing of playing overseas is that him, his wife, and children have an opportunity to experience new cultures and meet so many incredible people.
