From North to South

I have decided to give this blog a new look to celebrate the chickadee's promotion to toddler-hood. This blog is now colored pink or within the same color spectrum. Pink is the only color acceptable at this age. I kid you not.

So Big News - We have migrated.     

We have gone down south to the Lion City. 

Migrating is like a big breakup. You are saying goodbye to your world of familiarity and comfort. Your country has done just about enough for you to willingly let it go. You have stopped listening to the old and your ears have now leaned towards the whispers of a better life from the new.

There are lots of articles covering migrating as a single person or an expat. 

Moving on an expat package is just cheating. It is similar to going on a tour where you do what you are told and everything is sorted out for you. Try backpacking. 

There is just not enough credit given to parents who move with their kids on a local package. It can be financially challenging when you are moving to one of the most expensive cities in the world and you have to do it on your own. 

But with our "pros" outweighing the "cons", we lifted our roots, packed everything into boxes and made our big move.
