a person working outside their own country, sometimes on a fat corporate contract, sometimes as a foreign expert, sometimes just as an English teacher.
Often their pay is considerably higher than the locals and they live a life of
wanton pleasure while working as little as possible.
Other times, like as an English teacher, they live better than locals but not by much and spend their leisure time searching for
the best deals on local beer.
Female ex-pats tend not to get laid and grudgingly accept
celibacy. Largely because they don't like the locals and the male ex-pats aren't interested in them.
The male ex-pats often receive
underserved hero/rock star status from the locals, especially in Asia, and get more local pussy than they know what to do with. Which is why they ignore the ex-pat females.
Dude #1: "
Hey mate, why is that ex-pat chick always so bitter and
grouchy?"
Dude #2: "Because she hasn't had sex since she arrived in Asia."
Dude #1 "Really? Damn, I'm in ex-pat heaven with all the local action I'm getting. I couldn't get laid
to save my life back in the UK".
