While doing my daily RSS Feed reading on blogline, I came across this post that certainly has my attention. I totally agree with what it says on the post. If you ever plan to stay in other country for more than a year, you should take time to visit that country before you move. Thing may not always be the way you expect. The culture, the reality and the society don’t look pretty after the first sight.

You can read the original post from mytropicalescape.com, which has some travel related topics.

If you are thinking about moving overseas and can afford it PLEASE take a trip and spend some time in the country that you are planning to move to. Sometimes the reality of a country is not what the soon to be expect dreams about. A tremendous amount of frustration and wasted energy can be avoided if a pre-move trip is made.

Especially, if you are going to Asia, the climate, living environment, culture and even government policy may cause you some troubles. If you visit those countries for vacation, you may not feel the pain. Once you moved to the country for a period of time, you start seeing different things that you don’t expect. So set a schedule and visit those countries before you move.

I will recommend a backpack trip to those countries. Don’t carry luggage. You may need to catch the train and find your luggage too heavy. ;-)
