I blind moved to Australia with my son. It was a last minute decision after I won a public court case. I gave away most everything to friends. I didn't prep much. It was awesome.
On the plane ride there he seemed really nervous and after a few hours I realized it might not be the fact that it was his first plane ride. I finally asked him what was wrong and he asked "what language do they speak in Australia?" there are ALWAYS things you miss.
What surprised me the most was rentals in Australia are paid weekly not monthly.
Another thing that surprised me is the TV overseas. I've lived in Hong Kong, the Philippines, Australia etc. and the TV had no drug ads or tension causing divisive propaganda, even the news was calm. It might be simple but those are the things I remember surprising me, a sense of calm.
Where are you moving to?
