It’s true. I bought the ticket, turned in my notice at work. I’ll be leaving in March…
Going to Europe for love, and for love of adventure. You know, I thought I’d never fall in love again, nor would I ever leave San Francisco… It goes to show how vivid my imagination is. But everything seems to be falling in place, it’s time… and I feel real good about the move. My boyfriend is German, and needs to go back home to finish his degree. We talked about it a lot, and decided we didn’t want to be apart. He has a lovely place to live… and I have lived abroad before, I went to college in London, so I won’t be far away from my friends. And I know I can always come back.
Anyway, I’ll be selling a good chunk of my stuff on eBay and Etsy… right now I’m sorting all the stuff I think I can part with. Marc Jacob shoes, I harldy wear… a blue sparkly shirt.. etc.
So check back in tomorrow, I’ll have more details. I mean, if you’re interested in buying any of my clothes.

You’re warmly welcome to the west side of the pond!
i think that’s so rad; i dream about doing something like that
WOW!
Best of luck, I’ve never commented here before but I visit you blog at least twice a day.
Well done for having the bravery to make this change – it’s the decision making that’s the hardest part, I truly think you’re wonderful and your style will travel wherever you go.
I hope you will also sell internationally, I covet your wardrobe on a daily basis…
wow! big news! congratulations on this new adventure. i hope you’ll continue sharing fashion-y goodness. perhaps with a german bent? best wishes on your move.
Wow! That’s so amazing, and it seems so quick (although it’s probably just perspective, eh? It seemed like not so long ago we even “met” the boyfriend).
Needless to say, best of luck! It’ll be a wonderful change for you, and I will be excited to see the influences Germany has on the Coveted.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!
Wow, good for you!
Sounds like a wonderful adventure; hope you’ll keep blogging about it.
This is a brave and clever step. I truly believe, the good things in life come when one take risks.
Best of luck.

I am moving in May and trying to figure out how much I need to downgrade and it’s nervewracking…
Confratulation for such big and exciting change, I wish I could have same adventure spirit as you and go and live where I want to instead of spending only a few months a year where my boyfriend lives :/
WoW! Well, I did it the other way around (London-NYC), and it was the best thing I ever did. *And I got a blog out of it!) I think it’s a brillant plan. You go girl LLG xx
OMG, seriously? I thought you were joking in the e-mail. Oh, wow! You are so brave! I’m sure you will have a great life experience! If I’ll study for my master degree in Germany than we’ll surely meet! That’s amazing. Congrats for the move!

One day when I’m graduated and I have money enough I’m moving to France!!

OMG. SOOOO EXCITING! J- this is such fantastic news- for you, for Rocky, for The Coveted, and for Coveted readers who will be psyched to hear your musings from Germany!
Big congrats!!! That’s so cool. A new adventure. There’s nothing like a breath of fresh air every now and then to kick things up a notch and help you see things in a new light!
Congrats. That is a huge decision and a very exciting one. you will be surely seeing some great styles, not only Germany but all of Europe. Since it is only a hop and a skip to any other fabulously stylish European country. I cant wait to keep checking in while you are abroad. I am sure it will be and amazing experience. good luck. Caio!. La Reina

This is fantastic, Jennine! I am thrilled and excited for you (and somewhat envious too lol….my feet have been itching for a while now!)
you will have a great adventure, lucky girl
i am looking forward to The Coveted a la German perspective!
may all go well with the move and the sale of your glorious wardrobe
that sounds like when I packed up and moved to australia, I gave my notice and bought a plane ticket and off I was. now here I am back home a year and half later
That is so exciting! Three cheers for love and europe! Will you be in Berlin?
oh i wish… i’ll be in frankfurt until rocky finishes his degree… but after then? who knows?
happy happy happy for you JT! i know he must be special, he has cool jackets …i know that much is true.. i want to talk with you before you go, although this will be a pretty crazy time for you! please email me with your number, i have lost it. xxoo and congrats!
All the best in Germany, sweetness! I admire your courage to uproot and leave and plunge into the unknown for love and for everything new. How wonderful! I am looking forward to reading about your escapade to Europe…and also snagging a couple of your shoes, if the price is right!
My English is very bad … But if you want, and if you are not far from Paris we could meet and have a coffee french: o). I am looking for a corresponding English or American learn to speak English so if you want to meet a new friend in France, make me sign o)

Hello Jennine!
Frankfurt is not so far away from cologne where I live. (One hour with the high speed train) Maybe there will be a chance we can meet one day? That would be exciting….
success with moving!
Oh my! This will be perfect for our not-yet-planned-but-been-in-mind-for-ages first fashionblogger meeting in germany! frankfurt is… fine. Not far from Mahret, although she’ll move to berlin soon
Frankfurt is very “business”, lot of white collars – but good for shopping and certainly a good starting point for travels all around europe, since it’s almost central and has a huge trainstation and the biggest airport
you’ll have fun there! will you start learn Deutsch?
Oh Jen! This is amazing! I´ll see if there´s something for me…
We will near now! 
you let us know if you are coming to barcelona…All the best!!!
