I did the same, shipped costume stuff, but things that were treasured, came with us.

Sentimental person that I am, I have written a letter to my children each birthday (which I will give them when they're 21), I brought these in my hand luggage too as I couldn't bare the thought of them going missing.

Anything precious to you be it jewellery or anything else of sentimental value that you just could not bear to lose I would carry with you, everthing else can be shipped. That's what I did......

We used Prism xpat for advise re transfer of UK pension. I can't remember how much the fee was - but they do all the running around etc and deal with the pension holders etc. We had an initial meeting with them and then you decide if you want them to do anything.

I carried my most treasured jewellry, photos, bits the kids had made me, etc with me, BUT when we arrived at our OAA (On Arrival Accomodation, in case other states don't offer it), I didn't know where to hide it.

But then I had a brilliant idea hide the jewellry deep amongst the washing in the washing machine. Then, oh yes, I did.

So that's most of my kid's inheritance down the drain - not that they'd have been rich on it! Mind you I bet it was clean.

I would thoroughly recommend insuring everything as soon as your travel insurance runs out...
