I came down with flu after contracting it in Frankfurt a day before flying ‘home’ to our new house. Literally, the day after I arrived, after we got the keys to the new place, I woke up feeling very, very sick.
3 weeks of headaches, painful aches, hacking cough and painful chest while trying to make a new home was hard. It didn’t help that my other half left back for London a day after my eldest left, a week and a bit after we moved in. I had to sort 3 children’s schools and other daily agendas. As soon as I was getting better on the 3 weeks mark, my husband came home with his own cold.
This battered body of mine with its low immunity then came down with another bout of viral infection. It was hard but I was excited that the second half of our household goods was finally going to be delivered and we can finally ‘properly’ move in.
But wait… what’s going on? The friendly, communicative guy who delivered the first round of our goods has disappeared after getting his full payment.
Below is my full Sunday vlog to explain the horrible week I’ve had while trying to gain my strength again.
Me being the positive lass I usually am, I’m trying to find the blessing behind this ‘curse’. I hate it when I see good people being cheated but now it’s happening to me. So taking a deep breath and trying to calm down and fix whatever we can no matter how small. Send me your good vibes please! ♥️
p.s Thank you to my fellow expat mamas for sharing your own crazy move story! 6 months without your container of goods, delays at customs, bribes to pay in 3rd world countries… it’s all made me feel saner to know my loss is probably small in the grand scheme of things.
If you haven’t subscribed to my channel, I’d love it of you do!
