I think the circumstances of moving to another country vary wildly depending on where you are moving from/to, and I can only give general advice at this point since I haven’t yet done it myself.
Firstly I think it’s important to have realistic expectations. There will be a lot to adjust to, even if you are moving to a country that is “similar” (ie. going from the US to Canada). When you have different currencies, languages, culture and so on, it will get overwhelming sometimes. You might end up feeling very homesick, or even lonely, even though you have your significant other right there. Don’t let this discourage you! That is a natural reaction to such a big change. It will take time to get settled in.
As for going from ldr to not ldr, there will be a lot to adjust to because of this as well (especially if you’re going to be living together). Again I think being realistic is important. A lot of people fantasize about finally being together, and imagine everything as perfect and amazing. And a lot of it will be perfect and amazing! But you’re still changing the entire dynamic of your relationship. You have to get used to each other’s presence, and that’s okay. Don’t put undo pressure on yourselves. There’s nothing wrong will being nervous or not knowing exactly what to say or feeling a bit awkward. Think of it as a chance to get to know each other in a different way, and fall in love with who they are all over again.
