If you're getting ready to move overseas to work, there are probably a lot of things running through your head - things that, unfortunately, can't be ignored, such as getting the appropriate visa, finding a place to live and that's not to mention the new job itself.
Even if you're lucky enough to either be moving to an overseas office for your current workplace or to have received sponsorship from an overseas company that means your employment in your new home is secured, there are still a lot of arrangements to be made.
What's more, leaving behind some family and a lot of friends is no easy task, and a daunting prospect. The idea of moving away to an overseas destination where you won't know anybody and, worse, have many fantastic people to miss, is enough to put even the brave-hearted off taking the plunge.
However, there are ways you can stay connected with the people that are most important to ensure you that not all home comforts will be gone and to keep you both up to date with what's going on in each other's lives.
Even if there's a big time difference between your new home and your old one, with a little preparation, arrangements can be made so those treasured overseas calls can take place - and there are plenty of cheap options available to ensure that each phone call won't be a pricey affair. In fact, using a microphone and an internet connection means that many international calls from computer to computer are free and computer to home or mobile line calls can be fairly cheap.
On top of this, there's nothing like reviving the ancient tradition of letter-writing, a wonderful way to stay in touch that makes anybody feel special. Receiving a letter through the post is a lovely experience that lots of people treasure, so if you enjoy writing letters, now is the perfect time to get back into practice.
If the digital age is more your style, e-mails and instant messengers, as well as social networking websites and blogs are a superb way of staying in touch - though, often, nothing's quite the same as hearing the voice of a loved one over the phone or even seeing their image waving at you during a video call.
Wherever you're moving, for however long and however far away it is from home, there are always options like cheap calls to help you to stay connected to those who matter most.
