What's the difference between an expat and an immigrant?

Often enough little more than conceit, but you technically can't immigrate to a place you're already a citizen in. Brought my immigrant family with me though, so I'm happy enough to be called an immigrant along with them.

What country did you move too?

[โ€“] Gradually_Adjusting 2 points 10 months ago

The UK. Would have had more options a few years ago, but it's been alright.

Expats are white.
