Change in the air

There comes a time when you have to look for a new job, or housing, or make some other significant decision.

There are also times when you have to deal with it all simultaneously! In the next few months, I'm anticipating some changes in several areas...

1) Residency-the quota

I heard recently that the quota for St. Petersburg has been filled. As of now I should be on the list.  However, my documents aren't going to be ready before my appointment. So hopefully they will give me a little more time. I'm not quite sure how it works.


2) Visa

It's the same old story...visa is up June 30th, and residence permit will probably not be ready by then. What to do? Extend the student visa? Get a 3-month business visa? Get a work visa? Go to the States?  read more/-

3) Work

Maybe there's a reason that job opportunities have been coming up recently. However, I can't imagine taking much on while I'm still enrolled in classes. Maybe once the kids have gone to camp and I won't be visiting the orphanages anymore.  See "housing."

4) Housing

I'm going to be moving in the next few months. Of course it would be good to get a job by that time. But I'm not sure how all the timing will work out.


Look for updates! :)
