You want me to move where? I yelled at my boss. Ro-man-i-a, he repeated, like I had to read his lips or something. See, here's the thing. I've always lived in the USA. My whole life is here. I am an American, through and through. I've never visited another country let alone ever thought about moving to one. I hope you mean Romania, USA, I said. Yeah, that must be it. There's some city named Romania in the States. I was just about to heave a sigh of relief when I ... more...

After sitting on pins and needles for three months, it was finally decided, we were moving to China. My husband's company had been hemming and hawing about it for so long, the kids and I had almost given up hope. The only drawback was, my husband would go first, leaving me behind to handle all the details. Me, who's never even been outside of my own State! No problem. I could do it with the help of my friend the Internet. First thing I did was google international moving compan... more...

Google international moving company my friend suggested. We were having a Saturday morning chat over coffee. I was telling him how I've always wanted to live in the USA ever since my aunt, uncle and cousins had moved there years ago, when I was just a boy. Finally, my dream was going to become a reality. My parents had passed away, leaving me a substantial inheritance. It was time, time for me and my wife and children to move to the land of opportunity; the land of the free. I wa... more...

When my husband told me we were moving to South Africa in two short months I panicked. But that was nothing to how I reacted when he told me he was leaving in three days and that I would have to arrange the move! The company he works for was transferring him to head up its division there. Where would I start? Would I move everything? Only some things? What about our dog? Due to health concerns, I couldn't be running around all over the place to get information, visit international mo... more...

Finally, the time had come to retire and I was left with the big question: Did I want to live out my days in the land I'd come to love this past twenty years or did I want to return to the US of A, my birth place and home of my remaining family? After months of sleepless nights, soul searching and emails back and forth to my daughter, I had finally decided to move back to my original home. Having moved overseas twenty years ago you would think I'd have found it an easy task. But... more...

That's just what I did when I received confirmation from my company that I would be transferring to India indefinitely. Wow! I could hardly believe that within two short months I would be living in a totally different culture, an ocean away. I had so many questions! But first things first. I filled in a form at the international moving company site with my home state and de... more...

Well, guess I need to bite the bullet and call an international moving company. Don't know which one, maybe I should Google it. I still can't believe I have to leave the home I've always known to go live somewhere I've never been in the USA. How can I leave South Africa, the adventure capital of the world where natural beauty and wildlife abound? Where one can follow the African drum and gumboot beat; the bright sun, stars and city streets; the friendly people, rich cu... more...

I am planning to go on a driving tour of Europe next summer, and would like to bring my car.

Right now I still don't know my exact itinerary, but I do know that I will be traveling to Italy, France, Germany, and Switzerland. Is this possible? What are the things I should know about overseas shipping of vehicle... more...

My uncle was young then, but this is my favorite story of his. At 19, shortly after graduating from high school, he went into the Navy and was discovered to be adept at languages. They trained him (being smack in the middle of the Cold War) in Russian, which he spoke fluently for a long time. Then he became the button man. That was his name for it. Quickly elevated to G4 or G3 status and assigned to military intelligence, he carried a bag around and was always no further than 10 feet be... more...

I own a call center in Utah. I have just finalized negotiations with a new partner in the Philippines and will be moving my operations to that country.

I would also like to bring my car, if that is possible, as I expect to stay in the country for a long time.

My kids call us rolling stones. I've been called worse and this brings a smile to my face, simply because of the source. Sure, we like to roll around, seeing various spots and places and experiencing new cultures. Why not? We're retired, in our 60's, experiencing reasonably good health, and have set aside enough to allow us the freedom to travel and live all over the world. I call us movers and shakers. We've been quartered in Japan for the last few years, speci... more...

I am Romanian, born and raised. I was brought up in Constanta, on the shores of the Black Sea. Now, I must move to the USA. I have never been out of my country and I am afraid to go.

She is only sixteen. ... more...

The United States and its immediate neighbor to the north have always had an open border policy which made it possible to travel back and forth between the two countries with just a driver's license. After 9/11 and the ratification of the Patriot Act this all changed. Crossing the border now into Canada requires a passport and moving to Canada has become more complicated. Heightened security in the United States has caused a ripple effect up north that makes immigration and establish... more...

I thought she was nuts. A friend of mine connected online with a guy in Spain and had decided to marry him and move there; all in the space of about two months. She had met him exactly twice; once when he came here for three days and once when she went there for a week. Who does stuff like that?? But there was no talking her out of it. She was in love and she couldn't believe I didn't want to see her happy and blah, blah, blah. Anyway, it was done. She was packing and her... more...
