A is for... Announcement and Arrival

Ais for Announcement -- and Arrival!

Real Life events can now be revealed -- I got a job transfer to Geneva, Switzerland!

Anyone who's ever moved out of one country to another knows how much work this takes. The packing, the sorting, the paperwork, the selling, the storing, the paperwork, the farewells, the final leap into the unknown, the paperwork...

It's still not all complete, of course, but as of a few days ago, we've arrived!

Wow, congratulations! I've never been to Switzerland before, but I've heard it's beautiful there. I admire anyone (including you) who can start a new life in a different country.

Congrats on the new job! You could say A is for Alps! When I moved from the U.S. mainland to Hawaii, that was a bit like moving to a different country. I understand what you went through with purging your possessions.

Best of Success in your new job.
Aloha.

Congrats on the job move! We moved to Ecuador in December, but we're retired. Hope you enjoy your new country as much as we are enjoying ours.

I hope all these new changes bring you happiness. I'm always impressed when people leave their home country for more than just a vacation. Enjoy your next adventures. I look forward to hearing about them.
