Moving Abroad Advice
For a lot of reasons, thousand of people relocate to live overseas and make their home in a new country abroad every year.
They have been tempted by a better life quality, work in international careers, study abroad, take on volunteer work, retire overseas and have extended vacations abroad.
Moving to a new country can be a trying experience. You will need to take care of a number of things before you leave, and face up to new challenges once you arrive.
Making proper and sufficient arrangements prior to your move is key to a smooth and quick transition.
Visas and work permits
Visa and work permit applications can take some time to prepare, so it is best if you could start looking into it about a year before your departure. You should also make sure your passport has a validity of at least 6 months at the time of your move.

Alan, I heard many stories about people moving abroad. Some come back after a few months as they can’t get used to the new environment, but mostly stay and some even bring along their other family members together with them when they visit home. I wish to travel and stay in different countries too, will be good if I can stay one year in each different countries 🙂
I think I should take note of this since I don’t intend to settle down in our country. Once I get an employer willing to sponsor my VISA requirements, then I would definitely move out.
