I relo'd to France and had the same menagerie of support people. But they were French and of course no help.

My package included 6 weeks in a hotel for me and the missus. So I found a house on the 2nd day and exchanged the money for the 6 weeks in the hotel for money for cool furniture and some kitchen supplies. At the end of my term in France, they moved all the stuff back that I bought and I got to keep it.
