10 TIPS FOR SETTLING INTO A NEW CITY

2

1

Get Out There! Takeout and cable stink as city guides.

Keep Up Your Comfort Zones Find what’s familiar to you first: the gym, a local coffee shop, a frisbee golf course… hey, to each his own!

3

Be a Tourist Take a list of local attractions, and grab the fanny pack.

4

Read About It Yes, in the local newspaper, but also look out for free regional periodicals outside local stores.

5

Cook a Meal Skip the instant ramen, and make a recipe that requires going out and getting ingredients.

16

6

Buddy Up!

7

Don’t give up on your buddies back home. Invite one to visit and explore together.

Don’t Repeat Yourself Hiked in one park today? Try another one tomorrow!

8

Co-Workers = Co-People Ask them anything. Chances are they’ve been there, done that.

9

Take the Road Less Traveled If your GPS isn’t constantly “recalculating”, you’re not doing it right.

10

Go Easy on Yourself Transitions take time. Don’t beat yourself up if you’re not 100% comfortable quickly after arrival. Keep calm and acclimate on!
