Advice on moving overseas?
I know that since he was stationed before we were married that none of my moving costs will be covered. My parents are allowing me to keep my personal furniture at their house until we move back to the States, but there are a few keepsake things that I definitely want to bring with me. Any advice on how to pack for a move to another country, overseas flying (I've only been on a plane twice, and only for a few hours each 
), living in Germany (Ramstein AB), learning German, or anything else that you think might apply to my situation, would be greatly appreciated. Let me know if you are in this area, it would definitely be nice to make a friend before I get there.
Also, sorry the post ended up so long. I've never actually posted on a message board before. Anyway, thanks in advance for the input!
Re: Advice on moving overseas?
A lot of us have moved over to proboards, though some of us post in both places, and one of the mods over there just did a PCS to Germany right before her H deployed. She's taking German lessons!
Anyway, if you google GBCN Proboards Military Families and page Nomadic Mama, or just do an intro, I bet she'll have tons of good advice for you.
