Okay the time has come

Lots of stuff to do as date to leave moves closer.

Give notice. Nice area I lived in. Will miss it. Apartment just OK . No big loss. Rent storage locker. What do I know about storage lockers? Nothing. Found one close to where I live. Outrageous monthly cost but cheaper than a lot of them.

Stop gas service. Stop electricity service. Suspend phone service. Pay off cellphone so can be unlocked to use SIM card in other countries. 

Change address. Get virtual mailbox. In order to go to virtual mailbox you have to fill out a special form and have it notarized. It’s a big deal to say someone else can handle your mail. Stop subscriptions- Netflix, Spotify, magazines, instacart. You have more than you think.

Make sure you have right clothes for year long trip. Go through all your stuff and get rid of what you don’t need or want. Pack what you need for your life for one year into a carry on bag and backpack.

Get moving truck. Move contents of two bedroom apt to storage locker. (That’s a whole other story)
