Twinity Teams Up for Virtual Relocation Service

ExpatFinder.com and 3D Mirror World Twinity have joined forces to offer individuals moving to Berlin a suite of virtual relocation services inside the Twinity landscape. The idea is to acquaint future Berlin residents with the city's layout and some of its features. Berlin, along with London and Singapore, are the first cities to be recreated using the Twinity software. From a home or office computer, future residents of Berlin can "download a free guide, meet at a personal guided tour and get an idea of the layout of the city, the distances involved and the amenities in the new location before they arrive." ExpatFinder.com co-founder Sébastien Deschamps said that "getting family members on board at an early stage of the relocation is crucial to the success of the overseas assignment; a lack of commitment from the family or partner is often the reason why a stint overseas fails."
