Sam Beckbessinger has written a book called Moving to the UK. It's perfect for anyone doing just that, and awesome even if you're moving somewhere other than the UK. In my interview with Sam, we talk about: Why and how she wrote "Moving to the UK". How emigrating messes with your head and makes you feel like a helpless baby. Hard choices, and how they are an opportunity to define and redefine yourself. How the British are basically hobbits. Appreciating your South African-ness and learning how to be a bit more British. The Newcomers Club, a community platform for expats in the UK. Be SURE to check this out. Sam's superpower, which is creating meticulous tick-lists and spreadsheets which you can use. Anyway, I can't recommend the book enough, and I want to thank Sam for a super-fun interview. As per my ads, this show is supported by the family business, Luggage Warehouse. If you're thinking about emigrating, I've got a discount code for you for three luggage ranges with lots of space: ⁠BG Berlin Cube⁠ ⁠BG Berlin Zip2⁠ ⁠All Samsonite Ranges⁠, if your budget can handle it. Use the discount code: EXPATS at checkout and you'll get an extra 10% off your already-discounted purchase. These are "Build-a-Set" ranges, which let you build a set of any size and combination, and gives you discounts the more bags you buy. In Moving to the UK, Sam recommends considering taking extra bags on the plane and paying it, as it turns out to be more cost-effective than many kinds of shipping.
