Planning Your Move to Europe

Before you choose an address, get clear on the life you want to build.

You can picture yourself living in Europe. The harder part is knowing which place fits your budget, your priorities and your everyday life - and what you need to work out before committing.

This self-paced course helps you turn scattered research and unanswered questions into a written decision and practical next steps.

Work through four modules to:

>> Clarify what you want your move to change.

>> Map the costs, routines and support your first year could require.

>> Compare moving, staying, preparing for later, or testing a destination against what matters to you.

>> Decide whether to move, prepare further or reconsider - with your reasoning on paper.

Includes the complete Architecture of Relocation™: Choose Your Hard book, four course guides, fillable workbooks and supporting resources.

A downloadable PDF course you can work through at your own pace, with a suggested four-week structure.

Launch price: €149 until 27 October 2026. Standard price: €249.

Your answers become a practical record you can use when researching destinations, discussing the move with your partner, or preparing questions for professional advisers.

Compare your options

Use a weighted decision table to assess moving now, preparing for later, staying, or testing a destination against your own priorities.

Set your financial boundaries

Record the income, reserves, housing costs and relocation costs your plan needs to accommodate - and identify the figures you still need to verify.

Put your next steps on paper



Finish with ten actions, named responsibilities and deadlines, supported by plans for your first 30 and 90 days.

Four modules, one considered decision

Week 1: Your Reasons for Moving

Examine what is driving the move, what you hope to find and which expectations need a closer look. Establish the priorities that will guide the rest of your work.

Your outcome: a Relocation Motive Audit.

Week 2: Your First Year in Europe

Consider the costs, routines, support and adjustments that could shape everyday life after arrival. Identify the information you need to check and the preparations your circumstances require.

Your outcome: a First Year Reality Map.

Week 3: Comparing Your Options & Trade-Offs

Compare what each option offers and what it asks of you. Distinguish acceptable compromises from the conditions that would make a place unsuitable.

Your outcome: a Trade-Off Ledger.

Week 4: Your Decision & Next Steps

Bring your findings together, consider the uncertainties that remain and decide what you are ready to do next. Record the reasoning behind your decision so you can revisit it as plans develop.

Your outcome: a Relocation Decision Dossier.

Is this course for you?

This course is for people considering a move to Europe who want to examine the decision before committing, and for those already planning a move who need to bring their research into a clearer structure.

You can begin with a chosen destination, several competing options or an idea that still needs definition. Previous experience abroad is useful, but a different stage of life can bring different priorities.

The course is most useful when you are willing to research your circumstances, question assumptions and put your answers on paper. It provides a decision-making framework; destination-specific immigration, tax and legal questions require separate, qualified advice.

The experience behind the course

Created by Maggie Mark and Pete Kai Cunliffe, co-founders of Neartú Advisory. Together, they combine lived experience with an analytical approach to examining options, uncertainty and consequences.

Maggie brings more than 27 years of first-hand experience living across Europe and the United States, master’s degrees in Finance and Marketing, and certification as a Master Business Coach. Her experience informs the course’s attention to both the practical demands of relocation and the life a person hopes to build.

Pete contributes expertise in systems thinking, forecasting and structured decision-making. His perspective helps bring a disciplined approach to comparing possibilities and examining the assumptions behind a plan.

Questions before you begin

Do I need to have chosen a country?

No. You can use the course to examine an existing plan or establish the priorities you will use to compare destinations. Begin with what you know and identify what needs further research.

Can’t I research a move myself?

Yes, and your own research remains essential. The course gives that research a structure, helping you decide which questions matter, compare your findings and connect them to your priorities.

Do I have to finish in four weeks?

Four weeks is the suggested rhythm. Work at your own pace and allow time for the research, conversations and reflection that your answers require.

Is this a video course?

It is a PDF course built around reading, practical exercises and fillable workbooks. The documents can be downloaded so you can work through them and save your answers.

Is the book included?

Yes. You receive the complete Architecture of Relocation™: Choose Your Hard book alongside the course guides, workbooks and supporting documents.

What if I decide against moving?

The work can support a decision to move, prepare for later or stay. Its purpose is to help you understand your options and the reasoning behind your choice.

Does the price include private consultations?

The €149 launch price is for the self-paced course. Private advisory is available separately if you would like individual help working through your circumstances.
