Meet Neil Crossland
Neil Crossland began his career in UK financial services in the mid-1980s before moving to the Middle East as an expat — a decision that changed the trajectory of his life entirely. Over four decades in international finance, he worked across global markets while living the reality of expat life firsthand.
Along the way he informally guided friends, colleagues and clients through their own relocations — helping them navigate the visas, the finances, the culture, and the complexity that nobody warns you about. That accumulated experience, combined with a finance professional’s instinct for risk and numbers, is what eventually led him to found Your Next Chapter Abroad.
- 40+ years of international finance experience
- Firsthand expat experience across the Middle East and Southeast Asia
- Based in Ho Chi Minh City — lives this life every day
- Founder of Your Next Chapter Abroad
- Specialises in British, American and Australian professionals aged 50-70
What Our Clients Say

“I’ve been thinking about retiring abroad for 10 years. Neil’s session crystallised my thinking in 90 minutes. I now have a clear roadmap and I’m moving forward with confidence.”
“The 12-month protocol Neil created for me was exactly what I needed. It took the anxiety out of the process and gave me a step-by-step plan. Highly recommended.”
