Welcome to the expat life!

I'm going on my second international relocation as a wife. We moved to Sao Paulo, Brazil, about 3 years ago and now we're moving to Mexico City, Mexico.
As I know very well relocating is not easy but it is a choice. So, even with all the issues we have I'll try to make the best out of it!

Day 3 of the Move

The container is unpacked. Not a single box left. Can you believe?


I did not think it would be possible but everything is out of the boxes. The kitchen is fairly organized. All the dishes and cups are clean. I still need to clean the pots and pans but at least they are inside the cabinet. The bathrooms are almost done. There are still a few things in the counter but the bathroom is clean. I washed lots of towels and some bed sheets. I made huge progress.


The moving crew was great. They were on time, very professional, hard working and polite. The guys were committed to finish unpacking and they did not damage anything. Of course a few things got damaged along the way, but nothing big.


The handy-man came over to put some things together and hang some pictures but did not finish the job. He couldn't assemble some items and he did not take his time to try to figure it out. But he's coming back tomorrow and I'll have him fix what he did not do. And finish his job.


I am exhausted and ready to have a good night of sleep. I'll have another big day tomorrow.
