Welcome to Pardon this Expat! I'm Sandra, a lifelong Chicagoan turned Londoner since the summer of 2023. Alongside my husband and three kids, I've started on this new venture.
Following my graduation from Denison University, I dedicated nearly two decades to the nonprofit sector, orchestrating fundraising events and strategy. However, I’ve always had an itch to do something creative. After toying with the idea for some time (and a nudge from my husband), Pardon this Expat was born.
Here, I'm thrilled to chronicle my London experience, share insights from weekend getaways to Paris and neighboring cities, and indulge in my passions for trip planning, discovering great things to eat, and supporting local gems. Join me on this exciting adventure—thank you for being part of the journey!
