RELOCATING IN TIMES OF PANDEMIC seem to be harder than expected

INTRODUCTION

Just a week ago I've posted a publication explaining the reasons for my recent absence: MOVING INTO A NEW HOUSE. Since then I've received tons of good wishes, for which I'm super grateful. Many of you have also been also asking about the progress of moving my entire life back to Malaysia.

This post is to update all of you who may care about this subject. I haven't been online much lately and I'm fully aware that my discord is full of unanswered messages. Hopefully, you will continue having some patience as my life lately has been quite hectic and I may not be able to reply as fast as I used to.

SMALL UPDATE

Unfortunately, my application to enter Malaysia has so far been rejected - which is impacting my plans greatly. The reason provided is quite straightforward: borders are being shut and the entire country is still under heavy lockdown caused by another wave of daily covid cases.

There isn't much I can do about it and it's hard to tell when this situation will change.

To make things worse, I may be forced to rebook and postpone our flight (mine, my Malaysian wife, and our little puppy dog). And that comes with some new challenges: we cannot extend our stay in the current location as it's already fully booked. And since it's summer (following a long period of full lockdowns) - it may be quite difficult to find an accommodation which would still be available.

The entire process is becoming quite a headache. The amount of paperwork one needs to proceed with to be able to travel to South East Asia is a nightmare. And so much of that paperwork is "time-sensitive". Meaning: some documents have their "validity time" and may simply "expire". Therefore, if I postpone a flight ticket then I may need to start some processes from the scratch.

NIGHTMARE.

It's almost hard to believe that only 2 years ago one could simply hop on the plane, land at the destination and apply for a visa at the airport.

No such a thing anymore.

YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED

I would like to thank you one more time to all of you, for showing your support, patience and understanding.

Currently, I feel like I'm living in "LIMBO". Not sure what my next week will look like. And this uncertainty isn't allowing me to be as active on Steemit as I would like to be.

Yours, @crypto.piotr

Greetings dear friend, you always go out some setbacks when we travel, but with the situation of the pandemic have expanded the requirements to enter a country, I hope you can solve the situation you are going through.

Success brother, God bless you !

I think the lockdown is one of the major reasons relocating to Malaysia seems to be very difficult but I'm very optimistic that you'll definitely achieve your goals. Always remember we are also with you and I hope you accomplish your goals very soon. Greetings to your family.

Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead ❤️💕❤️

God's timing is perfect, sometimes it does not coincide with what we desire but it ends up being beneficial. Waiting is hard and difficult, even more so when it is seasoned with uncertainty. I would recommend that you apply patience and try to do activities that have nothing to do with the trip to detox a little of the stress that this represents.

I appreciate it greatly :)

Friend Piotr, for now the most important thing is that you can travel peacefully with your family and change your lifestyle in Malaysia, and steemit can continue with you from a distance, the only thing I wish from my heart is that you have a beautiful trip, you deserve to be happy.

Greetings my dear friend piotr. Good luck

Friend no matter how absent you have to be from steemit and discord, I know that like me many of the users of PH the only thing we wish with all our hearts is that you can travel to Malaysia and you can be calm and happy as you deserve, may God take care of you, your wife and your doggy, I have faith that everything will get better and soon you can travel.

Greetings my dear friend piotr.

just continue being strong @crypto.piotr . hopefully, everything will work out for the best

Hi buddy, I know that things will get better soon. It is quite saddening that the wave of covid has altered many things but I believe there is still light at the end of the tunnel.
You only need to remain positive.
Cheers and stay safe buddy

Calm down man, my best wishes for you I hope you manage to solve this chaotic situation, soon you will join the game don't worry we will be fine xd

I am sorry for your situation. Such a situation is faced by many when someone is interested to travel or shift to South Asia or Southeast Asia. You don't know when the situation will be normal but the proper what is very complex because if we just have the covid-19 test then our plane ticket is going to be expired and sometimes plane ticket is expires when we are passing covid-19 test and many more such kind of situations are happening. best wish for you in the upcoming days

Permit me to congratulate you once more on getting a new house. Its quite unfortunate your application to return to Malaysia was declined. The Covid outbreak has made travelling quite difficult. My well wishes are you with you and your wife. Have a nice week.
