In my experience, moving always sucks, so I wish you all the best.

FWIW, as I have learned the hard way, always, always, always keep your spares. Doesn’t matter if you have 100x more network cards than machines, the day you get rid of one is the day before you absolutely need it again. Thankfully I live in NZ where space isn’t at the same premium as Japan (my partner is Japanese and I have been a few times).

Good luck on the move

Hay K.Mandla, ever thought about sharing some more of you life stories here? You have lived as a foreigner in Japan for years, yet you rarely talk about it. Surely you have more interesting stories to share.
