The die is cast!

(written by Tom)

Back in November I flew to Copenhagen, Denmark for an interview for a position as a software tester with the Dynamics NAV division of Microsoft. Well, they offered me the job, and finally after reviewing the contract, getting numerous tax consultations, and lots of discussions with our families, we decided to accept the position and move the fam to Europe.

I am scheduled to start on 2/12/07, but before that we will have to sell the house and the cars, get the necessary paperwork done for working and living there (through a relocation agent), and say our countless goodbyes to loved ones.

Microsoft will handle all the details of actually getting there and put us up in an apartment until we find a place we want to stay.

Most likely we will want to stay 2-3 years. It will be an unbelievable experience and one that comes at just about the right time in our lives. Cavan is just over 1 year old and is just learning to speak. He'll have no problem picking up the native language. Lindsay is intent on finishing her dissertation after we move there and later possibly finding a job.

We hope to use this blog as a means to keep you guys updated with the latest goings on and detail our exploits in the land of the vikings.
