It's never been more critical to create a backup plan for yourself and your family by providing you (and your posterity) with the gift of a life without the limitations of boarders.
Dual citizenship and life abroad has always been enticing, but where is one to begin?
Will one waste time doing it one way, only to be rejected?
The internet can be so contradictory, but now, there's a smarter way to go about the process.
Welcome to CADLA, where working with a Dual Citizenship Mentor and international living expert can alleviate all of that overwhelm!
Experience all CADLA has to offer with founder, Ani, by your side.
Ani comes ready to use all the skills in her arsenal as a polyglot, international living expert, genealogist, and ex-investigative journalist to
ensure your success.
Our over 450+ happy clients often say it's like "having a personalized guide in your pocket for your global goals."
At CADLA, we specialize in helping individuals make the move abroad, and more importantly, stay there (for as long as you'd like!)
Visas expire, citizenships don't.
Our unique approach combines coaching and support to to make that dream a tangible reality.
So what are you waiting for?
Ani is eager to meet you!
Client Testimonials
A brand new lease on life
I can't say enough about Ani and working with CADLA. Her bubbly energy and vast knowledge about SO many different countries immediately calmed my nerves... and got me and my husband excited about what could lie ahead! Fast forward a few months, we are already set on our new dream town and have submitted our application for citizenship! I am so excited for this next chapter in our lives, all thanks to CADLA!

Feeling accepted abroad
My partner and I are part of the LGBTQ+ community. We came to CADLA/Ani to seek advice on where best to go. After only one call we had SUCH a clearer picture on what those countries were and now have a great base of knowledge to research from! I'm so excited to continue and book our next call!

From broke to bougie
No lie, I came to Ani with about $150 left in my bank account. At first I was skeptical if this was even a good idea. Thank goodness I took the plunge. With just an intro call, Ani showed me just how doable it was for me as a low-wage-earner to obtain dual citizenship and move abroad where my skills as a native English speaker could be valued, where my dollar can stretch further, and where I can FEEL better in my body eating better and walking more. Now with a financial plan in place, I feel confident to know what I need to do and how much I need to save in order to live like a QUEEN abroad! Thank you Ani!

Genealogy MASTER!
I always knew my grandparents came from Poland but had NO IDEA how to prove it. Nor did I know what insanely amazing privileges come with that. Within one call, Ani was able to both explain how I could live anywhere within the Schengen Area legally AND find the BAPTISMAL RECORDS of BOTH of my grandparents from completely different Polish regions! She also was able to trace 13 generations back in my family tree which was an added epic bonus! Loved sharing that with my family. DZIĘKUJĘ ANI!

A note from our founder
Welcome to all humans from all walks of life!
If you’re reading this,
CONGRATULATIONS!
You have already taken your first step towards learning how to take control of your future on an international scale. You are already miles ahead of the rest and honestly, I’m so glad you’re here.
At CADLA, we believe that you deserve to feel safe and have as much access as possible to the right of freedom of movement, no matter what life and/or world affairs may throw at you.
My name is Ani, the founder of Citizenship And Dream Life Abroad Services or “CADLA” for short, and after learning six languages, living in six countries, and navigating the process of obtaining triple citizenship on my own, I knew I needed to share all that I’d learned. I began to help my friends and family with their processes for a multitude of countries. After many successful cases, I decided I wanted to offer my guidance and mentorship to a wider audience.
I discovered my passion for helping others thrive sustainably abroad through my 15+ years of experience in international living, my high success record for tracking down your ancestors’ records from my skillset as a Georgetown University Master’s degree holding investigative journalist, and my seamless interpretation of those records from my being a polyglot and triple concentration Bachelor’s degree-holder in foreign languages from DePaul University in Chicago.
Now through CADLA, I am able to share my deep insight into world cultures through not only having visited but also having lived in multiple countries/continents to help match my clients to their dream countries and watching them THRIVE abroad. My experience in going through the trials and tribulations of obtaining dual citizenship, having wasted time and money during the process resulted in acquiring a deep knowledgebase of first hand experience of how best to navigate these processes, government systems, and the people that help get the job done right the first time for my over 450+ happy clientbase. As a client of CADLA, I am devoted to ensuring that you receive the full benefit of my aforementioned skills, knowledgebase, and connections abroad, doing everything in my power to help YOU reach your fullest potential in life.
And no, you don’t have to be a millionaire, heck, you don’t even have to be a “thousand-aire” to become a dual citizen or move abroad. You just need the will, persistence, and a positive attitude and you won’t even believe the life waiting for you across the globe. Keeping my prices affordable is important to me because I believe everyone should have access to their rights. This allows everyday people like you to realize their dreams of international living that, for some, feel so out of reach… when I know, from personal experience, that it really isn’t.
We know not one size fits all. That’s why with CADLA’s signature Build Your Own Program, you can stay as long or as short as you need in your process to attain your international goals! Some clients book one call and are ready to fly solo, while others need 10+. This program is NO PRESSURE, NO STRINGS, NO PREPARATION NEEDED and is designed and tailored specifically to YOUR needs which means you only pay for what you need. This flexibility is why so many of my clients come back and recommend us to others.
Imagine a year from now. You are stress free, living abroad in your dream country, with two passports, new aligned friends that feel like home, your health is better than it’s ever been, the food is fresh and delicious, you hit your 10k steps daily without even trying… all without the stress of your old fast-paced life of debt, constant work, consumerism, and always feeling like you can’t catch up. That new life is waiting for you. Are you willing to take the first step? If yes, know that you have an ally that will be right by your side through every step of the process.
Ready when you are,
Ani
No fear, just action!
The world is changing... fast. Will you and your family be ready and able to move if need be? While the world seems to present us with a new piece of jarring breaking news daily, it's become more difficult for people to stay calm while doing nothing about it.
Well, at CADLA, we say NO FEAR! Just ACTION!
When life feels out of control, having a backup plan can be that invaluable step taken to feel grounded, as much as one can during times of uncertainty.
Many of our clients have expressed an emphasis on this and we are honored to be able to provide this for them.
