Before You Move Abroad: 16 Questions to Work Through

You may have chosen the country already. You may just know you want out. Either way, there are a few things worth working through before you start spending money.

This free 16-page workbook helps you examine what you want from a move, what it could cost and what you need to find out before committing. There are examples to help you answer, exercises to complete and space to put actual figures against your plans.

Inside, you’ll find:

• 16 questions about your reasons for moving, everyday needs and expectations.

• A budget worksheet with a worked example.

• A comparison of moving now, staying, preparing for later and trying a destination first.

• A plan for a scouting stay.

• A worksheet for discussing the move with a partner.

• A decision brief and seven-day action plan.

You don’t need to have chosen a destination, and completing it doesn’t commit you to going anywhere. Finding out that you need more time, more money or a different plan is useful too.
