Thanks for the advice guys.
I suppose I should have made it clearer that I intend to stay there for for at least 5 years, possibly more depending on how my career develops (i'll be working at an investment bank).
As such, I'd rather not leave anything behind in the US that I actually want to keep. My company will reimburse my relocation expenses, as long as they aren't too outrageous (like a $700 cargo container
), so I'd like to try to avoid having to buy anything over there that I already own.
What it sounds like to me is that the best option is either stuff everything in a bunch of suitcases or post over a couple boxes. Any comment on the pros/cons of either option?
