When we moved from the city to the mountains (as well call it, we just moved to the suburbs – the very far suburbs!), it was like experiencing a cross country move. Not only did we experience environmental changes, there were more lifestyle changes that we need to adapt to. It was quite overwhelming, being in a new place, adjusting being a homemaker instead of a career woman, and being completely on your own but it was worth it. It made me remember when my sister-in-law did some cross country moving too, from Chicago to California just last year. They did the move by land because they had three kids and was in convoy with the mover trucks. East coast to west coast – wow!
