About

Transplanted is a weekly blog designed to give readers who are new to the state and those thinking about moving here, insights into living in Arizona.

I originally moved here in 2009 with my husband and son who was enrolling as a Freshman at Arizona State University. We quickly realized (with a few bumps) that Arizona was going to be our new home. I am a recent retiree having spent 27 years as a Corporate Trainer and Payroll Manager for an Illinois based company and I am also a licensed realtor and Notary Public.

New messages are published weekly so be sure to check back for resources and tips designed to give you a better idea of what to expect as you make the transition from wherever your home state is to sunny Arizona.

Current residents will also find interesting tidbits and share their experiences living in the Grand Canyon State.
