There are some new members so I thought I should point out a few things as well as mention some changes. There are 2 templates for this board. One has a white background and small fonts (expats), the other a creamier background and larger fonts (expats2). You can pick your your template in your profile (it is towards the bottom of your preferences). If you use Internet Explorer or Mozilla, you can also adjust your font size. I will check on how to do this with Mozilla later but for IE, click on the View Tab at the top top of your browser and then Text Size and adjust it to the size that suits you.

I am going to be doing a few changes and adding some things over the next couple of weeks so there may be times when you show up and the board is weird but any problems will be addressed right away (if I upload a mistake I will immediately fix it). If you notice any problems that linger though please let me know.

We are slowly but surely filling this board. I still have some old threads to move over but they can wait. If you are searching for something though and can't find it, please let me know and I will look through all of the threads not yet moved.

After everything gets settled a bit more, I will be adding new pages to the main site. I am compiling a list of some of the topics I think could be useful but if you have any ideas, plase let me know. I'll start a thread in the Everything Else forum for thoughts and ideas. One of the new sections on the site will be a How To section. I am planning on doing things like
[list:b1a38718d0]How to mail a package. [/list:u:b1a38718d0] [list:b1a38718d0]How to open a bank account. [/list:u:b1a38718d0] [list:b1a38718d0]How to make a doctor's appointment [/list:u:b1a38718d0][list:b1a38718d0] etc. etc. [/list:u:b1a38718d0] If there is anything you feel like writing about, I would be thrilled to put it up. Another section will be run downs on the Post Office i.e. all of the different types of services, the different bureaucratic offices, all of the taxes etc. etc.

After the summer holdays I would love to do a bunch of get togethers so if you have any ideas for that, speak up.

And, If you know anyone who is thinking about moving or an expat who is already here, let them know about us!
