It used to be a little scary to move to some foreign country half-way around the world. Who knew what it would be like?

If you’re moving to China with your family, you will have plenty to think about, to organize your move and to settle in once you arrive.

If your family is moving to Jakarta, you will likely be in for some serious culture shock. Indonesia is diverse, and Westernized in some ways, but not much like the United States.
