What to Bring!

Before moving a lot of people told us..."DON'T BRING THIS, DON'T BRING THAT!" I was actually worried about bringng our couch because so many people acted like we would have no room in our house. I thought the homes were going to be super tiny but I haven't seen a super tiny place yet! Our place is 1200 sq. ft which is PLENTY of room for my hubby and I! If you have a larger family you can find some places that are larger so don't freak out!

Before moving a lot of people told us..."It will be easy to find a great car there!" "Wait to buy a new car once your there..so many options!"  Okay..if you are looking for a 15-20 year old, standard, BMW then YES you have TONS of options! And these cars are great for back and forth to work and running around town but if you plan on needing or wanting a newer more reliable car I would suggust making sure you have that before you come. It's not impossible find a newer, automatic car here but it takes looking at the classifieds every day and jumping on it if something comes up.

We were lucky enough to find two great cars that fit us here but if I had known what I know now I would have just bought a car in the states (I was in the market for a better car anyway so I left my old car behind) it just would have been nice to have choices, ya know? :)

Now it's time for a POLL...comment with your answer.
What is one thing you left behind at your last base that you wish you would have brought?
