I am heading back to London this week. I know a lot of people are wondering why do I go back even though I finished up my degree in July of last year. I have found two things to be true. One, I have lots of “stuff” still in London, whether that is clothes, books, binders from school, etc. etc. that all need to migrate home to San Diego at some point. Two, the cost of migrating said “stuff” is going to run me about $3,000 to ship it all back.
So I have just figured out it is easier to migrate stuff slowly. It is easier to migrate 100 pounds a trip back to the US at the cost of $600 - 700 round trip, than to pay $3,000 for shipping back 300+ pounds of stuff. Not to mention I can catch up with classmates, and friends in London for a short vacation while I am over.
I know it may seem irrational, and it probably is. But heck, what can you do, right?
