Planes, Trains, and Automobiles

Besides the issues with selling our stuff, packing our stuff, finding an apartment, money, and finding jobs, we have one other issue…. How are we actually going to get to New York?

Maz and I have one car between the two of us, which we plan to sell before we move, my Dad said he is willing to drive his pick-up out to New York, and my Mom want to come with us when we move. So…how do we get four people and a apartment sized load of stuff half-way across the country?

We purchased our tickets…

Looks like Mariesie and I are going to New York City for a week in mid-August to hunt for an apartment. We also hope to get some interviews for jobs while we are out there. We will have one week to get a line on jobs and get an apartment. It’s not a lot of time, so we’ll have to be well prepared ahead of time.

We purchased our flight to NYC from JetBlue. The airfare was reasonably cheap. The plan is to stay in a hostel while we are in NYC. I’ve been looking at JazzHostels as a possible place to stay. We want to save as much of our cash for actually moving out there as possible. I’m hoping that the hostels in New York don’t suck, as I’ve never been. I’ll let everybody know how the discount airline and the hostel stays went in future posts. It will be an adventure, thats for sure.
