Moving to a different country

Like I mentioned on my last post I was born in Mexico quite a few years ago. But recently I got married and moved to Illinois to live with my amazing husband, truly the love of my life. We're a mexican/american couple so believe me there are many stories to tell.

Moving from one country to another is definitely not easy and adapting to a new life style can be quite difficult sometimes, but it is totally worth it when you've found love or if you are following your dreams, it depends on what situation you are at the moment.

For me was love, and it has been amazing!

But looking at the whole picture for a moment, moving to a different country can be scary and challenging! Am I right?

Sometimes when I look back, I see it like this ...
One morning I woke up in Mexico and had breakfast. Then I went to the airport and a few hours later I was speaking English and having dinner at 6:00 pm, also I was now Mrs. Wife and it was very very cold outside. Don't get me wrong I would't change anything about it but wow things changed big time.

The language you speak changes, some new traditions are added or maybe replaced by others, your life style changes even the people you meet every day is a little different from what you are used to and you probably had to leave behind friends, family, work, school, projects, many things,  right?

But what do you do when you feel overwhelmed by all that? Normally what I do is look at the reason why I'm doing all that for, like I said for me is my husband and the magnificent life we have together and everything that the future will bring, that gives me the strength to over come all those feelings, ... you can do it too, just remember why you are doing all those changes in your life and it will give you peace and comfort.

But also remember, your friends are still there (faraway, perhaps but still there for you and you for them) your family loves you very much and thanks to technology you can talk to them every single day if you wanted too!, there are tools like GOOGLE HANGOUTS, FACEBOOK, FACETIME, SKYPE, WHATSAPP and more, tools that can help you stay connected through message or video-chat.
I know all this tools are not "new" and probably you already know about them, but just don't forget staying connected is as simple as just  sending a text saying "Hello" now a days.

Don't forget that it might be not easy but is worth it!

In this blog I will try my best to share all this journey and adventures that this changes will bring, hopefully you will find it interesting enough to keep reading, don't forget to follow my blog, twitter and YouTube channel, where I will begin to upload new things soon.
