1. Be frugal

1. 要节俭

Moving is a money wormhole. You pray those dollars will get transported elsewhere, but it just goes poof. You spend loads on the packing, shipping, airfare, renting a new residence and everything else attached to emigration. Those are unavoidable expenses. What you can do to reduce the moving cost, as well as living comfortably thereafter, is to remember frugality.

流动是最花钱的一项支出。你期盼着自己的美元能够带你到逛，但是却一下子就没有了。你的大部分钱都花在了包裹运输、坐船、坐飞机、租房子以及其他与移民相关的一切事务之上。这些都是不可避免的花销。为了能够减少流动的开支，并且住上舒服的房子，你唯一能做的就是记住要节俭。

You will be tempted to fill your new abode with trinkets and appliances you did not have before, get the cutest linens and whatnot. Pace yourself. Embrace minimalism. Treasure the heartfelt belongings that came with you from the home country. Budget for rent, utilities and food – the standard comforts everyone needs. Then slowly look into second-hand items or ethnic goods that will be of lower cost than what you are used to.

你将会受到许多诱惑，比如在你的新住所摆放一些之前没有的小玩意和电器，买最可爱的亚麻布料和置物架。要让自己平和下来。尊崇极俭派主义。珍惜你从本土国家带来的最心爱的物品。为租房、器具和食物做预算——能满足任何人需求的标准。然后慢慢看一些二手物品或者民族商品，这些能够帮你比以前自己习惯节省开支。

If you have a work visa, you will have more money than those on a tourist or student visa, but that does not mean you will be financially stable until after a few months of labor. Pinch those pennies until you do not fret over the days between paychecks. Continue to spend wisely, because you never know what will happen.

如果你有工作签证，你可能比那些旅游签证或者学生签证的人更有钱，但是这并不意味着在工作几个月之后，你的财政会很稳定。紧缩自己的开支，直到你在两次发薪水之间的时间内，不会烦躁为止。继续明智花销，因为你永远不知道未来会发生什么事情。

2. Crave independence

2. 渴望独立

There is a spike of helplessness that often makes even the strongest of women break down while living abroad. Injecting yourself into the bloodstream of another culture, another world, as like asking to be treated as a foreign substance to that country’s system.

在国外生活的一个最大的痛楚就是无助感，这常常甚至会让那些最强大的女性崩溃。只身投入另一种文化流之中，融入另一个时间，自己被那个国家的系统就像是当做了一种外部物质一样。

You might not get the best treatment from the locals. You might consider relying heavily on those that do show kindness and concern. Don’t. At least not 100%. Even if you moved with family, do not cling to that familiarity.

你或许得不到当地人最好的待遇。你或许会考虑大多数情况下依赖那些对你表示友好和关心的人。但是不要这样做。至少不要百分百依赖。即使你是和家人一起流动，也不要完全依靠这种亲密关系。
