So I finally nailed down a few details of the impending 6 month move to Sao Paulo. Of which most importantly was that my departure date is in 2 DAYS!! The rest of the family will wait till after thanksgiving to move down. We will be living in Moema, a neighborhood close to the office. (And also conveniently close to the main park in the city!) I'm still only on lesson 4 of Pimsleur's conversational Portuguese so I suppose I will be pointing a lot and drawing pictures to communicate when I can't find an English speaker.
I haven't packed a single thing, in fact my luggage is currently still residing in the attic. My goal for the next 24 hours is to make an extensive list of all the things I will need to take with me with the hopes that I can get everything packed on Saturday (while watching college football of course). Unfortunately this means we will not be attending the wedding of Lawdog and Callie, which I'm sure will be both beautiful and a lot of fun! (Shout out to the rest of the FPS crew that will be attending, I hope you behave yourselves! And if you don't I better be copied on the evidence that circulates next week.)
Wish me good luck - I seriously need all I can get!
Oh and here's an article I will be referencing this weekend- packing tips from Deltalina.
