Relocation and migration can be more stressful than the plan in our head
 BY A PERSON WHO WILL MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY

Relocation and migration are one of life’s most stressful events. Hong Kong as an international city, attracts individuals from all over the globe. Many plan to stay for a short period as a step on career development. Some find themselves making HK their “home away from home”. Regardless of where “home” is, adjusting and adapting to a new culture, relationships (workplace, friendship), often with minimal social support from back home, can be very challenging.

Aside to dealing with the basic physical resettlement of finding a place to live, schools for children, health and other services, meeting and making new friends.

It can be challenging for couples when the one who prompted the move is absorbed with the challenges of the new workplace and culture. The spouse on the other hand, may also be occupied with finding a new job, perhaps dealing with professional accreditation issues, children adapting to new schooling environment. Pre-existing personal, familial and relationship issues prior to the move often get exacerbated with stressors associated with relocation and migration.
