8 Tips on Moving and Settling into a New City– on Alex Tries it Out!

July 24, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt


Hello Friends!

First of all, head over to see who won the Color Me Rad giveaway for two free entries to the colorful fun-run!  Thanks for all who participated!
———-
It’s been about seven weeks since we’ve moved to the twin cities!

How crazy is that?  So much has changed! 

Plans.  Expectations.  Lifestyle.  Love.  Having our own fridge…

All things mostly for the better.  Especially when looking at it through the rose-colored glasses of optimism.

Moving can take up a whole lot of time though, so I’m attempting to take some of the blogging pressure off of Alex while she moves to a different city.


I wrote this post for her blog: 8 Tips on Moving and Settling into a New City to share what I’ve learned along the way.  Head over to check it out and leave her some love and encouragement!

While I can’t say I did everything perfectly and I’m STILL getting lost in my new city, hopefully this post can help out those of you who are about to move as well!
