Mood: words cannot describe...

So, in other words - only bring with you what you CANNOT POSSIBLY REPLACE. It's going to cost you to get it here so do the math!!! Like my mother's china; still unused (and will probably remain that way - should have sold it before moving!) Furniture that we weren't quite sure would fit into the house right and guess what...it didn't. And Lord knows what else...

This is so subjective. If you have a really well-made piece of furniture that will last for years and that you love, do you sell it in the US for a pittance and replace it with something not nearly as well-made, or spend the money to ship it? And, if you're unfamiliar with all the shops in your new town in Baja, what's the real cost to replace the item? I don't know.

Stuff


Isn't amazing how our "stuff" dictates our life. I am downsizing in a huge way for my move, and it feels great , with every item shed I become a little more free. :bounce:
