Moving to Warmer Climate

Clothes
When the weather is warmer, women want to wear clothes that often reveal bare skin.
Sleeveless shirts, sundresses, shorts and bikinis are all worn when the sun is shining and the weather is warm.
Although fashion is different in each country, you can expect most women in Western countries to wear the skin-revealing clothes.
These clothing items may not be provocative by our standards, but they can be completely unacceptable in some countries.
Some countries are very conservative, so research what clothes are acceptable.
Men and women may not be able to wear clothes that reveal their legs or arms.
Some countries are very strict about these rules.
When dressing for work, it is best to overdress than to be underdressed.Most countries do not have a relaxed dress code for the office.
Make sure you wear suits the first couple weeks of work if you will be working in an office.
Don’t show up to work in a tank top or sundress because this is likely unacceptable.

After being at your new job for a short period of time, you will get a better feel for what other people are wearing.

Bugs and Critters

If you are moving to a tropical climate, there is a tradeoff for the beautiful year-round weather.
Bigger bugs and other critters are inevitable when it’s always warm.
Although keeping your living space clean helps, it will not guarantee that you will not have a surprise visit from these unwanted house guests.
The first thing you will want to do is prepare yourself for what to expect.
There will be bugs that might be a little scary because of their size, but they will be harmless.
However, you might see a small spider that could potentially hurt you, your family or your pets if you are not careful.

Health Conditions

Many retirees move overseas because the weather is warmer and may improve their health conditions.
People who suffer from arthritis tend to do better in warmer climates.
If you suffer from allergies, you may want to research what plants thrive in your new region of the world.
A longer growing season could mean trouble for allergy sufferers.

Cooling System

If you are moving to a tropical location, make sure your home is fully equipped with a cooling system or central air conditioning.
If not, the hot summer days might be completely unbearable.
Ask about the electricity bills.
If the house is not insulated well, air conditioning can cost a fortune!

Monsoon Season

Colder climates have to deal with the snowy season and warmer climates have to deal with the rainy season.
Usually during the summer months, warm regions of the world experience excessive amounts of rainfall.
Make sure your house is well-equipped with proper gutters to avoid any preventable flooding.

When to Move

If you have a choice on when to move, try not to move during the rainy season.
As previously mentioned, warmer climates tend to have a rainy season
You are pretty much guaranteed a rainstorm daily during this period of time.

If you don’t have a choice on the timeline of your move, the team from IntlMOVE will keep your household goods safe and dry.
