Living in another city is one thing, but relocating to another country... well that's even harder for her parents. ..... Anyhow, I won't ponder on this too long, but it's been an interesting experience. As Tia has to relocate herself with no help from her employer, it can be difficult if you don't know anyone there. So being a good networker and an organised person I've done 2 things.
