Moving from Sydney, Australia to the East coast of the US. Pretty much the other side of the globe.

Ps. subject to attaining admission in my dream school...

I'm moving from the west coast to the east coast. Pretty far if we're talking about within the US, but nothing compared to the people moving around the globe.

I am moving from London, where I have good credit, to New York where I have none.

Do not underestimate how much trouble this can cause someone. Fortunately my gf is American, and has good credit, which is saving me somewhere between $10-15k deposit on a rental property, even with my guarantors and everything.

Baltimore, MD to Boston, MA.

However, this doesn"t diminish the stress of moving! Even with selling off a lot of things, I still feel like I'm swimming in boxes!

moving from the DC area to Madison, WI (assuming I gain admission)

it's about 850 miles but I have lots of family in Madison and lived there for 8 years growing up so it's not too foreign a place.

I'm living out of a weekly motel in Seattle until something becomes available (hopefully) by the end of the month. Probably scoured every piece of property within a five mile radius of the Peninsula only to discover that occupancy rates are currently hovering around 98~99%.

Oh yeah, just flew in from Tokyo and enjoyed a beef burito supreme from Taco Bell. Was really hankering for that good ol' americanized mexican dog food. :smoke
