Moving to Hawaii challenge 1 was getting my car all booked up. Challenge 2? A place to live! Why was that number two? Well I learned something important. Sometimes, when you try to plan too far ahead... you don't get that much done. See people don't tend to list their places that are available in two or three months... Next month or NOW are the places that are listed.
So I did the car first and then worked on a place to live. So, here I am. Turns out I didn't even really need to look. A friend of my mom's, has a friend with two condos in Kona and she needed someone to rent one of them! So that is what I am doing.
The long term goal is to buy a house, and set down some roots. But for now a furnished condo is exactly what I need. I need to get off the plane, move in and get settled. I have 5 days before I start work full time, so I have 5 days to get my life on the island figured out. A place to get food, go running, get gas... all sorts of little things need to be figured out.
So now I have a place to live, a contract, and my car will be there in a week. Flights are booked, and last day of work here figured out.
Next challenge: sell AK condo.
