Hi all...

I've just accepted a job in MRU starting toward the end of next month (June)...

I'm pretty excited now at this point but I'm conscious I'll be moving from a different environment and colder climes (Ireland & the UK) so I would like to know of anything I should be aware of and what I should be adding to my checklist of things I'll need to take with me.

Tips from anyone that's been in my situation or a similar situation would be appreciated. You can leave out the obvious like remembering to take factor 40 suncream etc, I've learned that the hard way over the years

Cheers

Damien

Hi,

Check that your vaccinations are up to date and refreshed, if necessary. Furthermore, get a bunch of personal documents from the responsible offices. Like, certificate of birth (with Affidavit), certificate of morality, international driving license, medical records. Well, you have to pass some medical issues here anyways - nothing to worry about.

Apart from that, leave any winter clothes at home! Flic en Flac is warm, warm and warm all year. ;-)

Cheers, JoKi
