Ep. 4 - Tre Nichols (Boise St Basketball)

Overseas Diaries | Athletes Post Podcast

Former Boise State basketball player gives his insights on what it’s like to play in Asia and Australia and the difficulties of being away from his children. Sometimes the term “overseas” clumps too many countries together when talking about a person’s experiences. Talking about pro athletes overseas usually boils down to “it must be tough to be away from home” but it’s much more than that. Tre talks about going from the difficulties of even finding food in China, let alone dealing with a foreign language, to being much more comfortable with everyday life in Australia. Those little stresses and comforts can really add up quickly and affect you in ways you don’t even notice. And if that isn’t stressful enough add in supporting small children financially! Tre touches on being away from his two daughters and the need to tame your lifestyle and keep the end in mind when you are providing for others.
