My planning to move abroad has been going smoothly as can be hoped. Two days ago I found out my flight has been rescheduled, now leaving Minnesota at 5:00 am and flying to Atlanta, then Los Angeles, then Shanghai, then Chongqing. Definitely my fantasy flight. I went to apply for my work visa, and was told to return with my "Health Check for Foreigners" form. The response of my workplace in China, "What health form? We have no such thing." Things are just more complicated when you live abroad. But at least I have a fancy stamped document. What could be better than that?
