I moved coast to coast back in December, California to Georgia. Packed up my Jeep and a trailer and made the 2400 mile journey. It was the best decision I have ever made. My biggest piece of advice if you are thinking about moving to a different state, just do it! Make whatever decision that you think will improve your quality of living. You owe it to yourself to be happy! Good luck friends.
@@Themccrumfamily I was fortunate enough to be working as a private contractor for the military. All of my jobs were in different states/countries so I could life basically anywhere. As far as finding a job goes, indeed is an extremely valuable tool. Gig work is also an option. I do DoorDash/Uber eats on the side and I know for a fact that I could survive if I did it full time. It’s been 2 years in Georgia and I’ve never been happier. Best of luck to you and your husband 😊
This video gave me a better sense of hope. Finances is always what stresses me out with moving, especially in the time frame I’m aiming for and especially since going to NY from NV is a huge stretch. Thanks for all the tips!
That’s a huge stretch! Hang in there - you got this 💛☺️ Moving and finances can be so stressful. Happy these tips helped you out a bit. Wishing you the very best on your move and new life adventure!! It will be worth it in the end.
Such a positive, feel good video about something that is anxiety inducing. I think its a great video and I like the part you added about going with the flow.
I’ve never moved to a different state before. Planning on doing so in a couple of months. But something that is helped me whenever we would move to a different town is trying to pack sooner rather than later. The more you can get done that isn’t last minute the better. So as the seasons change maybe you pack your winter clothes or are you back up your board games and extra stuff you don’t use on the daily.
@Samari9. Your comment got a laugh. Um, actually it would not surprise me if these were Jesus people. Gives one genuine joy in the heart. The same joy is available when you ask Jesus to come into your heart as your Lord and Saviour. Just know God loves you and is mindful of you. Its real. He melts hearts and gives hope. He binds up the broken hearted. He gives peace that passes all understanding. Meaning we don't have to know everything about something that happened or a disappointment to have peace about it and to trust God is with us. God loves you.
This looks like a really happy couple. Maybe they should do a relationship channel too. They just give ya the warm and fuzzies don't they? Such nice people.
This is a great video. Thinking and planning on moving to denver colorado for the new year with my girlfriend. Been thinking about it for a while and just want to start something new. Definitely saving money and have been doing my research on the city of denver. Listed as one of the best places to move to and to live in. Definitely my main goal/resloution for next year(2021). And definite good point on not bringing too much stuff. The less stuff you bring, the better. I would advise people to clean out the house, rooms and get rid of stuff that you really don't need. It will make your life and move a lot more easier.
Finding a place sounds so hard. How to get an advantage for a rental over Other applicants that have had a job history in the area seems like a daunting task
That's understandable. Moving is a big deal and can be scary! But we are wishing you all the best and hope that some of these tips helped :) Good luck!
These are great tips! I've never moved to another province in Canada, but in the past 11 years I've moved 4 times... the last move was literally only a few blocks away. These tips would still apply!
I'm looking for information on what kinds of paperwork you need to do since High School makes you woefully unprepared to move (and real life in general). How do you go about getting new driver license for the state you're moving to, changing insurance providers for your vehicle (and life insurance), and things of the similar nature. Also how to legally change your state residency for purposes such as purchasing firearms, ammunition, alcohol, and other regulated substances and materials.
These are great tips. I’ve only moved from one city to another in California. But it was already such a hassle! I can’t imagine moving to another state.
Me and my husband are planning to move to Boston. And is funny that I’m looking for some advice and you guys move to Boston. But anyway thank you so much for the advice. I have been freaking out the most, because boston is 4 times more expensive than where we live right now, and we are struggling to find a place cheap.
Oh very cool! We've definitely enjoyed living in Boston so far. But moving here was pretty difficult. As you said, apartments here are shockingly expensive, so it could be hard to find somewhere affordable. You might have to look a little farther outside of the city to find a cheaper place. Either that, or make sure to keep checking often to see if you can snag a great deal on a nice place. We got lucky with a nice place that didn't end up being too ridiculously expensive. One thing that you and your husband should keep in mind when moving into an apartment here, though, is that you will need to pay 1st month's rent, last month's rent, a security deposit (equal to 1 month's rent), and a "renter's fee" (also equal to 1 month's rent) all up front. It can all add up to a lot of money, so just be ready for it!
moving from tx to wa in three months, i’ve been trying to get everything ready/organized since six months and everyone keeps saying “you’re still far away.” noooo!! i don’t want last minute panicking 😭😂
@Bradley Cheese Pepperoni i'm having to do it on my own! my parents never want to leave the south, so i saved up and had to wait until i was old enough. you'll get there!
My husband & I are planning to relocate to the east coast once he gets his green card. These tips will be helpful for when that day comes. Thanks guys! Also just subscribed.
As a kid, my mom, 3 siblings, and I would move at least once a year and actually moved from Illinois to Florida. We sold almost everything we owned, borrowed a big van with a trailer and took off. I was only 14 so I wasn't stressed at all but I'm sure my mom was, luckily she already had a apartment and job lined up. But honestly moving was never a hassle cause we never completely unpacked so we could just pack a few things and go on our way. My situation is now I have a wife and 2 sons under 3 years old. My wife has lived in the same house for like 18 out of her 21 years and is so scared to move. I KNOW we'll do great and flourish considering we'll be moving from an expensive, heavily populated city in Florida to either North Carolina or South Dakota.
Thanks for sharing your story! I'm sure once you move a few times, that you just get used to it. I'm sure your wife will really appreciate the experience you have with moving. Best of luck!
Really great and helpful blog! Welcome to Boston! If we were home in Boston would love to get to meet you in person, maybe when we come home in Sept. I love the “go with the flow” so funny! Would love a vlog about why you moved to Boston and what you love about it.
That’s a great idea! We’ll keep that in mind. And oh you guys are from Boston?? That’s awesome. Definitely keep us posted on when you get back. Would be fun to meet up one day 🤗
Very informative! But quick question, I’m moving from Houston to Las Vegas with my wife, around how much money would y’all say it takes to completely move and start over, thank you
I definitely get it. It's really hard to find a job before you find an apartment. I (Ben) got lucky that I was able to find a job in Boston that was willing to do an interview over a video call and that eventually led to them hiring me before we moved. I would suggest networking for jobs as much as possible well ahead of when you want to move
We did! We took a short trip out to Boston a couple months before moving there to do apartment searches. We were very lucky to find an apartment that we liked and signed a lease a couple weeks later!
Okay real big question here..not sure what you guys would recommend on this one but my son's father lives in FL and i live in NJ. My son has an older brother who he's extremely close with. My son is 6 and his brother is 8. I want them to live close by but my son's father and I are not together. We have a very complex relationship. I have most family here in nj and one reliable aunt in florida that can help me through this process. Do you guys think it is worth it for me to pick up my bags to Florida? I don't have anything neccesarily holding me back. But I wanna know I have the option to move back to New Jersey if possible.
how do you all go about looking for a job before moving? I don't want to move with a savings of 5k (prob the most i could save up) and just be broke after that dry up. And do Landlords allow us to move in with what we saved and not trip about not having a job just just yet? Cause i know they wanna see proof of employment
Thinking about moving to Dallas - Fort Worth area soon from nyc. Applying for jobs now looking for apartments it is a headache. Also thinking about putting all my clothes in my car and driving down there 22 hour drive ! What do you think ? I won’t be bringing any furniture due to not owning really anything of importance
Looking for apartments is one of the hardest part of moving, so I definitely understand your pain. It's hard to find anything good without actually touring the apartments in person. Glad you are able to fit everything in your car! Not having to rent a moving truck will save you a lot of money. Sounds like you are off to a great start
I would check out how much you could potentially get for your car if you were to sell it in Hawaii. Given how expensive it would probably be to ship your car to the mainland, I think it would be cheaper to just sell your car in Hawaii and buy a new one in Texas
Thanks for the video guys. Did you guys find it hard between priortizing a new job first or a place to live first?? Because i understand apartment managers want someone to have a job so they can approve of you if you show proof of income. However, if i get a job first and no place to stay, should i just see it as, maybe live in my car while working, before getting approved for an apartment?? Thanks for your feedback if ur able to. Hehe
I have a question thats been bugging me. So here's the deal. Im planning on moving to Des Moines IA in 2022. And am super excited to do so. However my question is how would you advise with the job/address thing. An apartment landlord is gonna want income which is understandable anotherwords wants you to have a job. An employer wants an address for tax purposes, contact info, etc. I gotta do one 1st what do you recommend?
This is the question I struggled with the most before moving. It's so hard to do one without the other. One trick I would suggest for looking for jobs is to set your LinkedIn location to the city you want to move to. I did that and then applied to jobs in Boston like crazy. Thankfully the company I found a company with was willing to do an interview over Zoom, which ended up being the company who hired me. As we say in the video, it's never to early to start networking for jobs, so start getting your name out there now to possible companies you could work at so that you have an easier time getting an interview when the time gets close to sign a lease! Once you get the job, an apartment becomes a lot easier to find. This is obviously easier said than done, but hopefully this is helpful
Oh no haha, we're sorry! We both love Minnesota! We both grew up there, so we moved just for a change of scenery and to experience life on the East Coast. We know we'll move back to Minnesota someday though! Let us know if you have any questions about moving to the area!
The Map Pinners , oh I understand thats great then goodluck out there!! It is a big change, and aww yess cause i heard mn is a great place for family! ❤️
We’ve moved apartments twice since we got married, staying in the same city though, and it was crazy! Can’t even imagine how complicated it must be to move cities 😱 But, you guys seem super organized though! I would pull all of Rachel’s panic faces hehe
Hahaha it was a lot!! It’s all a bit of a blur now. We moved, I had 2 weddings and 4 conferences to go to in the same month and they were all in different states! Safe to say i didn’t get much sleep that month but it was all worth it in the end 🤗

Hi fellow Minnesotan! ☺️❄️ How can I network to find a job before moving? Example of what I can say when reaching out? I’ve been using LinkedIn more often but I’m still figuring out a way to build a personal connection with others. Would love to connect with you guys on LinkedIn! Little backstory: I’m moving in later with my boyfriend who’s transitioning out of the military to become a software engineer. He had the opportunity to enroll in a computer science program for veterans with a chance to work at Microsoft. Because of that, he won’t be moving back to MN. I’m relocating to where he’s moving by the end of this year while he starts his job in the summer. We became long distant since he joined the military, so I’m slightly nervous about the job part when I move!
Great question! Always love hearing from a fellow Minnesotan ☺️ Finding a job is definitely one of the hardest parts of moving. Normally, it is incredibly difficult to gain any traction in your new market when you aren’t actually there yet. But, fortunately for you, everyone is having to work from home right now! That means that nearly all employers, including recruiters, have had to reorient their setup to be fully remote. This is awesome for you because it removes the difficulty of having to be in the city to do in-person interviews! Here are a few tips for looking for building a network in another city: 1. If you can, set your LinkedIn profile to say that you are living in the city that you are moving to. Recruiters will often times dismiss people right away for not living in their area, so this will at least remove that barrier for you. 2. Send in applications for job positions that are open right now, even if you aren’t moving for a while. Most recruiters are dying for good leads, so even if they can’t offer you a job right now, you will be one of the first they call when they have an opening closer to your move date. 3. Try reaching out to people that are already working in your dream position in your new city to ask for an informational interview. Informational interviews are great ways to gain a contact in the company and, even better, gain an advocate for you when you actually send in an application! Try reaching out to people via LinkedIn or, if possible, via email if their email is listed on their LinkedIn profile. People are much more responsive when you reach out via email. Also, try reaching out to managers first before entry-level employees, as they usually have more influence behind their recommendation for you. 4. If you went to college, look for alumni from your university that work in your field in your new city! Even if the alumni aren’t in the exact position/company that you are looking for, they may be able to connect you with someone that can set you up with a job! If you have trouble finding any alumni in your new city, I would contact the career center at your university to see if they have any sort of database of where alumni work and live. They can most likely provide you a list of contacts of alumni in your new city. Would love to connect via LinkedIn to help out any way we can! Best of luck to you and your boyfriend with the move!
Money is always the hardest part of any move. Moving can be so expensive! But after saving up money for a while, I bet you can make it to SC eventually 👍 Moving can be so worth it if you are able to pull it off
We are not a big fan of moving around, it's really tiring! We stayed in one spot for 4 years just because we didn't want to move. Zillow is a good website actually. Go with the flow girl, like a little bird! Ahahaha
Haha I don’t blame you! We get it. Moving is hard work. It is funny though that we don’t mind traveling full time and constantly moving when it comes to that kind of adventure though 😄
I'm, unfortunately, not too familiar with Chicago, but I did find this video that has some helpful tips about choosing a neighborhood in Chicago! th-cam.com/video/TI3NYb2jRXM/w-d-xo.html. Hope that helps!
Have any questions about moving? Or maybe another moving tip that we didn't include in the video that you can share with others? Share it here in the comment section! We'd love to hear from you!
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins! HE Loves you! Come to HIM!🙂
You guys seem way too nice for Boston.. Jk lol but I’m also not kidding. Attitude is like regular communication out here. Have you noticed that yet? I’ve gotten attitude being super happy bubbly like you guys before because naturally that’s how I am but sometimes I just gotta turn that shit off. I live close to Downtown though, could have something to do with it.
Yea we thankfully haven't seen too much of that, but we live in the Allston/Brighton area. Plus I work north of the city, and people are really nice up there. But we have experienced that rude-ish attitude downtown before, so I definitely get where you're coming from
Am I a teenager trying to convince my parents to move us to New York so I could be near my best friend? Yes. Am I doing a bunch of research and currently making a power point and an essay on why we should move there and what houses I’ve found that would accommodate us and jobs for my parents and the schools I could go to? Yes. Am I probably working too hard for this just to get rejected? Probably. :,)
Hey you guy I'm moving from nyc to Georgia and I need some advice I want to move at the end of the year feb or jan 21 I' dont want to bring that much stuff and I just want to do it but I'm scared since I been in the city since I was 16 moving from Florida
Hey Thony, thanks for reaching out! We definitely understand where you are coming from. We were nervous when we made our move to Boston too! But what we can say now that we are done with the move and settled into our new place is that this has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives! We have grown so much from the process of moving and living in a new city by ourselves. I think one thing to remember when deciding whether to move or not is that even if you don't end up liking the place you move to, you aren't stuck there forever. If you don't end up liking Georgia, NYC will always be there to move back to. Or you can move somewhere else! But if Georgia is somewhere that you are passionate about moving to, then I think it is worth giving it a shot! Make sure to follow all the steps we laid out in the video to prepare yourself for the move. I definitely would recommend bringing as few things as possible because moving with a lot of things really sucks. Try selling some of your extra things on either Facebook Marketplace or Ebay to earn some extra money. Let us know if you have any other questions about moving! We are happy to answer them.
Hahahaha, i will move to iowa Boston is to expensive I have been here 15 years . Is to bussy i like more quite place like altoona iowa. And buy a hose there.
Why the f*** would you move to this awful state? Boston is not “cool” except for the 7 months of god awful weather. Why not move to a warmer state like San Diego?
We moved here for a few reasons! First, we both wanted to try out a bigger city on the East Coast. So far we have loved being close to a ton of cool places, like New York City and the mountains up north. Second, we both have family living in the area. So it's fun to live near them for a little while. Third, we love traveling overseas to Europe, and we know that Boston offers some cheaper flights and shorter flight times to European cities (when there isn't a pandemic happening, of course). As for the weather, we're both originally from Minnesota, so we are already used to the crappy weather haha. I think we'll have to try a warmer location next though!
I guess this couple believe they are alleged GOOD people. But they deny the labor common goods that was promised to Yoruba Diasporans from the Eurasian common wealth. From the 1500s.

Hello. Our landlord told us he is planning on selling our home and we decided on moving to another state. This video has been a godsend.
Aw, I'm so happy to hear that! That sounds like a very stressful situation, so I'm happy we were able to help in even this small way!
How'd it go?
That gives me an idea of how to move from Ohio to California by saving up money and working hard.

Such a positive, feel good video about something that is anxiety inducing. I think its a great video and I like the part you added about going with the flow.
Expect your belongings to multiple over night making you feel like you will never be done packing... Or is that just me?
Hahaha no that’s definitely not just you 😂
When I move, I treat it like a military operation. Plan, plan, plan and anticipate. Then attack it like the beaches of Normandy in WW II.
And then some genocides here and there
@@abraham7414 No genocides here and there for me.
@@audiophileman7047 and some gassing here and there if u know what I mean 😉
I’ve never moved to a different state before. Planning on doing so in a couple of months.

So as the seasons change maybe you pack your winter clothes or are you back up your board games and extra stuff you don’t use on the daily.
So true! Packing early can save you so much stress later. Great tip
Unless where you're moving is going to be a little of the opposite weather
Haha the don't panic tip is definitely a good one Thank you for all of these helpful tips! We'll have to keep the in mind next time we do some moving!
Haha happy you found it helpful! 😊
I can't handle the cuteness, it's too much. DO: make this same video when you're jaded in your 30's.

im moving from Boston to New Hampshire very excited the Freedom.
We love NH!! Best of luck with your move :)
Did you visit the apartment you’re in currently before signing a lease and moving out there?
We did! We took a short trip out to Boston a couple months before moving there to do apartment searches. We were very lucky to find an apartment that we liked and signed a lease a couple weeks later!
first video i've seen from you, I'm thinking about going from AZ to Colorado personally... But I love you're energy!! Please keep being yourselves :)
Aw, thank you so much!! That means a lot :) Best of luck with your decision and your potential move. We love Colorado!
From the rest of the Union we would like to apologize you moved to a big city. Our hearts and prayers are with you
Okay real big question here..not sure what you guys would recommend on this one but my son's father lives in FL and i live in NJ. My son has an older brother who he's extremely close with. My son is 6 and his brother is 8. I want them to live close by but my son's father and I are not together. We have a very complex relationship. I have most family here in nj and one reliable aunt in florida that can help me through this process. Do you guys think it is worth it for me to pick up my bags to Florida? I don't have anything neccesarily holding me back. But I wanna know I have the option to move back to New Jersey if possible.
how do you all go about looking for a job before moving? I don't want to move with a savings of 5k (prob the most i could save up) and just be broke after that dry up. And do Landlords allow us to move in with what we saved and not trip about not having a job just just yet? Cause i know they wanna see proof of employment
2:30 and I'm out. I can't DO these two giggling and derping. I'm sure Boston's going to love you both.
Thanks! They really have.
Thinking about moving to Dallas - Fort Worth area soon from nyc. Applying for jobs now looking for apartments it is a headache. Also thinking about putting all my clothes in my car and driving down there 22 hour drive ! What do you think ? I won’t be bringing any furniture due to not owning really anything of importance
Looking for apartments is one of the hardest part of moving, so I definitely understand your pain. It's hard to find anything good without actually touring the apartments in person. Glad you are able to fit everything in your car! Not having to rent a moving truck will save you a lot of money. Sounds like you are off to a great start
@@TheMapPinners thanks pal happy new year
I'm sure good advice. Just too much happy.
Forget moving, I need someone who looks at me the way she looks at him 😂
Thank you for all the useful tips! how do you move a car?
Hope you enjoy my Home city! Awesome vid, we are now preparing to move to Cali
Thanks so much! Best of luck with your move to Cali :)
how did u like it 🥺🤍
How can I ship my stuff for cheap
Moving to a big city is always crazy, so much more money for a lot less space!😄 hope you guys are loving it😊
It’s been odd moving to a new city just before COVID hit but all in all happy we made the move 🤗 just wish we could see more of our new city right now
The Map Pinners yeh can imagine it must’ve been strange but at least you got the move sorted before it all! ☺️
Im planning on moving to Texas but I'm from Hawaii do you think we should sell our cars in hawaii or just ship it up with us?
I would check out how much you could potentially get for your car if you were to sell it in Hawaii. Given how expensive it would probably be to ship your car to the mainland, I think it would be cheaper to just sell your car in Hawaii and buy a new one in Texas
Moving from Maryland to Iowa Wht u suggest to do ?
Thanks for the video guys. Did you guys find it hard between priortizing a new job first or a place to live first?? Because i understand apartment managers want someone to have a job so they can approve of you if you show proof of income. However, if i get a job first and no place to stay, should i just see it as, maybe live in my car while working, before getting approved for an apartment?? Thanks for your feedback if ur able to. Hehe
Try to work as a property manager. They normally get a unit to live in for free.
Awesome video! Great advice in this for sure!!
Thanks so much! So happy you found some of the advice helpful! Have a lovely week.
I have a question thats been bugging me. So here's the deal. Im planning on moving to Des Moines IA in 2022. And am super excited to do so. However my question is how would you advise with the job/address thing. An apartment landlord is gonna want income which is understandable anotherwords wants you to have a job. An employer wants an address for tax purposes, contact info, etc. I gotta do one 1st what do you recommend?
This is the question I struggled with the most before moving. It's so hard to do one without the other. One trick I would suggest for looking for jobs is to set your LinkedIn location to the city you want to move to. I did that and then applied to jobs in Boston like crazy. Thankfully the company I found a company with was willing to do an interview over Zoom, which ended up being the company who hired me. As we say in the video, it's never to early to start networking for jobs, so start getting your name out there now to possible companies you could work at so that you have an easier time getting an interview when the time gets close to sign a lease! Once you get the job, an apartment becomes a lot easier to find. This is obviously easier said than done, but hopefully this is helpful
@@TheMapPinners It certainly is Thank You
came to learn, stayed for the most adorable couple ever. God bless u 2 , i haven’t watched the whole video yet i hope it helps 😭😭😭
Aww thank you!
Im planning on leaving newyork for Minnesota 😭 and you guys left it lol
Oh no haha, we're sorry! We both love Minnesota! We both grew up there, so we moved just for a change of scenery and to experience life on the East Coast. We know we'll move back to Minnesota someday though! Let us know if you have any questions about moving to the area!
The Map Pinners , oh I understand thats great then goodluck out there!! It is a big change, and aww yess cause i heard mn is a great place for family! ❤️
Hey! That’s so funny I’m moving with my girlfriend to Minnesota from New York in a month! Lol
Lucas Gale wow thats crazy!
How much money is recommended to have saved if you're moving out of state?
It can really depend on where you are moving and how much you are bringing with you, but I think a good range would be between $2,000 - $4,000
We’ve moved apartments twice since we got married, staying in the same city though, and it was crazy! Can’t even imagine how complicated it must be to move cities 😱 But, you guys seem super organized though! I would pull all of Rachel’s panic faces hehe
Hahaha it was a lot!! It’s all a bit of a blur now. We moved, I had 2 weddings and 4 conferences to go to in the same month and they were all in different states! Safe to say i didn’t get much sleep that month but it was all worth it in the end 🤗
The Map Pinners Wow, sounds hectic 🙈😅
What are services that move your car?
"You're not gonna be able to predict all the stuff that's going to happen" *video posted Feb 9, 2020
Not predicting a world ending pandemic, a mistake I think a lot of people made probably several weeks after this video dropped.
Moving to NYC or LA??? Ummm...people are leaving in droves
Totally! Very true now. It was still an exciting option back in 2019 when we moved though :)
how much money would you need to move to another state?
You don’t need a whole bunch tbh, at least 2-4k would be a good start
Totally agree!
Hi fellow Minnesotan! ☺️❄️ How can I network to find a job before moving? Example of what I can say when reaching out? I’ve been using LinkedIn more often but I’m still figuring out a way to build a personal connection with others. Would love to connect with you guys on LinkedIn!
Little backstory:
I’m moving in later with my boyfriend who’s transitioning out of the military to become a software engineer. He had the opportunity to enroll in a computer science program for veterans with a chance to work at Microsoft. Because of that, he won’t be moving back to MN. I’m relocating to where he’s moving by the end of this year while he starts his job in the summer. We became long distant since he joined the military, so I’m slightly nervous about the job part when I move!
Great question! Always love hearing from a fellow Minnesotan ☺️ Finding a job is definitely one of the hardest parts of moving. Normally, it is incredibly difficult to gain any traction in your new market when you aren’t actually there yet.
But, fortunately for you, everyone is having to work from home right now! That means that nearly all employers, including recruiters, have had to reorient their setup to be fully remote. This is awesome for you because it removes the difficulty of having to be in the city to do in-person interviews!
Here are a few tips for looking for building a network in another city:
1. If you can, set your LinkedIn profile to say that you are living in the city that you are moving to. Recruiters will often times dismiss people right away for not living in their area, so this will at least remove that barrier for you.
2. Send in applications for job positions that are open right now, even if you aren’t moving for a while. Most recruiters are dying for good leads, so even if they can’t offer you a job right now, you will be one of the first they call when they have an opening closer to your move date.
3. Try reaching out to people that are already working in your dream position in your new city to ask for an informational interview. Informational interviews are great ways to gain a contact in the company and, even better, gain an advocate for you when you actually send in an application! Try reaching out to people via LinkedIn or, if possible, via email if their email is listed on their LinkedIn profile. People are much more responsive when you reach out via email. Also, try reaching out to managers first before entry-level employees, as they usually have more influence behind their recommendation for you.
4. If you went to college, look for alumni from your university that work in your field in your new city! Even if the alumni aren’t in the exact position/company that you are looking for, they may be able to connect you with someone that can set you up with a job! If you have trouble finding any alumni in your new city, I would contact the career center at your university to see if they have any sort of database of where alumni work and live. They can most likely provide you a list of contacts of alumni in your new city.
Would love to connect via LinkedIn to help out any way we can! Best of luck to you and your boyfriend with the move!
very good video thank you
Glad you liked it!
Ugh I just want to move to south carolina from stinking miamj fl
😟money is the issue
Money is always the hardest part of any move. Moving can be so expensive! But after saving up money for a while, I bet you can make it to SC eventually 👍 Moving can be so worth it if you are able to pull it off
@@TheMapPinners so right
We are not a big fan of moving around, it's really tiring! We stayed in one spot for 4 years just because we didn't want to move. Zillow is a good website actually. Go with the flow girl, like a little bird! Ahahaha
Haha I don’t blame you! We get it. Moving is hard work. It is funny though that we don’t mind traveling full time and constantly moving when it comes to that kind of adventure though 😄
Yes, im from California and Moving to Arkansas
Best of luck with your move! :)
Any suggestions for moving chicago?
Trying to moving Illinois from NY..
I'm, unfortunately, not too familiar with Chicago, but I did find this video that has some helpful tips about choosing a neighborhood in Chicago! th-cam.com/video/TI3NYb2jRXM/w-d-xo.html. Hope that helps!
@Bradley Cheese Pepperoni 👍👍
Have any questions about moving? Or maybe another moving tip that we didn't include in the video that you can share with others? Share it here in the comment section! We'd love to hear from you!
Any legal or paperwork stuff you have to do? Other than DMV things for vehical reg?
What about securing a job in another state ?
Thank u for this
Happy you liked it! Hope it helped a bit 💛
Great Video!
Thanks!
Best one
Leaving California gang? Anyone?
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH’S LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On YAHUSHA HAMASHYACH. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM!🙂
Wow I love you guys !!😂
Hahaha aw thanks so much! Appreciate it :)
You guys seem way too nice for Boston.. Jk lol but I’m also not kidding. Attitude is like regular communication out here. Have you noticed that yet? I’ve gotten attitude being super happy bubbly like you guys before because naturally that’s how I am but sometimes I just gotta turn that shit off. I live close to Downtown though, could have something to do with it.
Yea we thankfully haven't seen too much of that, but we live in the Allston/Brighton area. Plus I work north of the city, and people are really nice up there. But we have experienced that rude-ish attitude downtown before, so I definitely get where you're coming from
Am I a teenager trying to convince my parents to move us to New York so I could be near my best friend? Yes. Am I doing a bunch of research and currently making a power point and an essay on why we should move there and what houses I’ve found that would accommodate us and jobs for my parents and the schools I could go to? Yes. Am I probably working too hard for this just to get rejected? Probably. :,)
Haha worth a shot I guess! The worst they can say is "no"!
He's giving me Ryan Phillippe/Justin Timberlake vibes
Well thank you!
Hopefully texas to Montana when I’m financially stable
Montana is an awesome state!! Hope you are able to move there sooner rather then later! Wishing you all the best.
Hey you guy I'm moving from nyc to Georgia and I need some advice I want to move at the end of the year feb or jan 21 I' dont want to bring that much stuff and I just want to do it but I'm scared since I been in the city since I was 16 moving from Florida
Hey Thony, thanks for reaching out! We definitely understand where you are coming from. We were nervous when we made our move to Boston too! But what we can say now that we are done with the move and settled into our new place is that this has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives! We have grown so much from the process of moving and living in a new city by ourselves.
I think one thing to remember when deciding whether to move or not is that even if you don't end up liking the place you move to, you aren't stuck there forever. If you don't end up liking Georgia, NYC will always be there to move back to. Or you can move somewhere else! But if Georgia is somewhere that you are passionate about moving to, then I think it is worth giving it a shot!
Make sure to follow all the steps we laid out in the video to prepare yourself for the move. I definitely would recommend bringing as few things as possible because moving with a lot of things really sucks. Try selling some of your extra things on either Facebook Marketplace or Ebay to earn some extra money.
Let us know if you have any other questions about moving! We are happy to answer them.
Y’all are so cute together 😍😊😊
Hahahaha, i will move to iowa

Aw thanks! You’re so sweet 🤗
Why the f*** would you move to this awful state? Boston is not “cool” except for the 7 months of god awful weather. Why not move to a warmer state like San Diego?
We moved here for a few reasons!
First, we both wanted to try out a bigger city on the East Coast. So far we have loved being close to a ton of cool places, like New York City and the mountains up north.
Second, we both have family living in the area. So it's fun to live near them for a little while.
Third, we love traveling overseas to Europe, and we know that Boston offers some cheaper flights and shorter flight times to European cities (when there isn't a pandemic happening, of course).
As for the weather, we're both originally from Minnesota, so we are already used to the crappy weather haha. I think we'll have to try a warmer location next though!
I guess this couple believe they are alleged GOOD people. But they deny the labor common goods that was promised to Yoruba Diasporans from the Eurasian common wealth. From the 1500s.
I've never seen a girl this animated that wasn't in highschool and drunk
What is UP with her mugging?
