III Life with the family and children

IV Small guide for survival in Germany

Dear reader,

I know that you have made one of the most difficult decisions yet. That of choosing to build a new life in a foreign land. You may have left everything behind and you may have chosen to sponge it all off, perhaps for the sake of your child, or your whole family.

Maybe you feel like everything here is for nought, no matter how hard you try and struggle, and on top of that, you don't even feel appreciated enough at work. So, with a heavy heart, you decide to try something new and give yourself a chance in terms of your career and your new family life.

This wasn't easy for me either, you know. Just as it wasn't easy for the many who have taken the plunge, perhaps before me. It's a challenge, I know! But it's worth it. Especially if you have goals, dreams and aspirations. Know that nothing comes without sacrifice, work, and giving up. It may hurt now, but know that through patience and perseverance, you will succeed. It's not easy to get up, but it's not hard either. Seriousness and ambition are everything, and appreciation will come with time. Trust is built with time, so it is with everything, even in family life.

In the end, you will look back at all you have accomplished and you will say that it was worth it, even if one day you will decide to return to the places you hold dear.

I. Fear of the unknown

I think this is the first stage that Bubu experienced. The fear of the unknown. Although she knew the language, she knew it first-rate when he left. But still... she abandoned everything.

She barely gave up her career, even though her colleagues loved her colleagues and she enjoyed the team on which she worked. Not merely did she acquire a lot, but she learned how to manage her emotions much better and seem to organize herself. She commenced an extended period of documenting, scouring the internet for information and having many family conversations about the plans and decisions she was going to make.

Naturally, the descriptions of life here in Germany didn't stop there, from her mother and from her sister who had long since settled in Germany. Gradually, education and persuasion had begun to grow in her mind, especially after the documentation of German jobs and salaries at that time. As time went on, the pressure from her husband began. The thought of committing and securing a future for her little one became more pressing.

It is inevitably stated that the night remains an appropriate advisor. There were sleepless nights, lost nights in the yard on the patio thinking about what to commence with, and how to handle the situation. How would it be more excellent? How not suddenly separate little Iris from absolutely everything she was attached to?

She had begun to get used to Reghin there, and it might have affected her.

a lot more, all this transition and this sudden rupture.

Therefore, I started gripping her for walks all day to distract myself from all this stress that had begun to take possession of me.

But I said to myself:

-Some so many families take this step who may not have the opportunity to have someone with them, they come alone... it is possible, more than that they do not know the language, why should I not have the courage?

So I decided to focus on the significant things. I started to simulate and imagine what the day of my departure will be like and what I require to do to make everything go well. Let's not forget our documents, and then all the things we wanted to take with us.

Don't forget about yourself. Finally, your mind is important, too. You still need to take a breath and think about how to make things work out the way you desire them to be.

But to make it easier for you to overcome your fear, obtain a goal.

What is your goal? What are you resisting? It will make it easier for you to overcome your fear. If you take this step in two steps, you will surely find it much easier to overcome the difficulties.

It is critically significant to think about what you want to do. Do you want to leave alone first? Maybe without a wife or husband? You may have someone here, or you may not have that luck and need to turn to someone to help you from the outside. You are taking this step right now.

Temporarily to release some money and then return to your home country? Who will you stay with initially? Are you going to leave without knowing the language? Not, don't perform that. And if you however want to do it, find someone or ask for help from outside. Of course, I don't recommend going alone, a contract in front of you at the first stage and having no idea what you sign.

Don't wait to get flowers, because you would not get them in the first instance. Most people are frozen. They build up their trust in you as a person very hard. You're going to get into a lot of situations where you're going to have to deal with all those who have conflicting goals when they come here, in the same pot. Show them what you know first, get far as you can with the language you know, always be firm and remember that.

Your intentions matter a lot.

Remember that you must devote your undivided interest to integration and to work. They build up their trust in you as a person very hard.

It completely depends on your attitude. And don't forget, only then can you respond in kind, after you have been challenged a bit after you have proven everything you had to prove.

II. The move, the job, real challenges!

You've managed to overcome your fear. Bravo! What do you demand to do at present?

You have decided to withdraw from the critical step. This after many dark desires and thoughts to return to where you left off. The first thing you require to perform is to figure out where you will stay when you get there until you manage to find a rental, of course. To be able to involve this step, if you want to work here, find an employment agency in Romania.

They will aid you, both on the contractual side and on the training side with everything related to your departure. Don't forget to take all your documents and translated and legalized diplomas with you. All of this will help you to find a job. Your resume is very important, this is your mirror. If you can't handle it at first, ask someone to do it for you.

Orient yourself so that you always have a plan B, but also solutions for situations that may arise at the beginning. If you go alone, it will be better for the beginning. Why? Because you require capital to be able to raise the rent, especially if you want to possess your family with you. You need to have about two rents as an upfront payment. So if you decide to live on your own, you should be prepared. But, it's still a step that far. Stable Job. You'll need to prove that you have a stable income if you want to rent a house, and beyond that, you should try to leave with a minimum amount of capital. Black day’s money doesn't hurt in the beginning.

Prepare yourself. You'll need furniture, maybe the nursery, and of course you'll need your place. Once you've done that, the first and most important step is to register yourself at the town hall you belong to. Naturally, it is ideal if you go with a German speaker, or if you have knowledge of English, it is an advantage because it is possible to find someone who is open-minded and agrees to speak English with you.

Now that you have established all of the things preceding, consider how you will get there. First, if you have your car and want to operate it, you'll be interested in anything to do with paying taxes and insurance. You will need the information to be able to travel with it legally.

Perhaps you have a child. And it's not even the year your wife gave birth to your miracle. Super. You know she’s physically and mentally to an end, close to a nervous breakdown because she doesn't recognize what to perform or what to place her hands on first. Until you have dropped off all your family documents at a translation agency to be translated and legalized because you will not be capable to do absolutely without them, collect as many boxes as you can and write on each one what is in it. Try to take as much as you can from the beginning to reduce your expenses. My advice, if you have a baby, do not ‘’torture’’ him in the car. Our princess was eight months old.

When I took the plunge, it was thirty degrees outside. To our delight, in quotations, I waited ten hours at the airport because it was late. The little girl was already tired and exhausted, and the plane didn't seem to come.

Take valuables in your hand luggage, of course, and try not to direct things to the address in Germany without finding someone reliable to bear them to you. If one of you is at present over here, perfect. You might be lucky enough to find an
