Your Must-Have Conversation Before Visiting or Moving to Washington, DC

If you are thinking of moving to, or just visiting Washington, DC but don’t know where to start, speak with us first! We can help a first-time visitor or relocator get a better sense of the nation’s capital and give you baseline knowledge before you do all the things you want to do. We have a combined 50 years of living, working, and studying in Washington, DC and we have seen and done it all. We spent so much time in many of the neighborhoods, gone to the monuments and museums, ate and drank our way around good and bad restaurants and bars, navigated the DC government bureaucracy, paid years of taxes, moved several times within the city, experienced crime, and walked hundreds of miles around city. Before you start your adventure, wouldn’t you want to first know what you are getting into?

We offer personal one-on-one consultations over video or voice call, and you can book one hour ($200) or two hours ($300) to have a conversation about anything you want to know before traveling to Washington, D.C. We can speak to you about the neighborhoods, culture, trends, living expenses, typical rent and home prices, nightlife, safety, etc. You decide! Before our session, we will only ask for a quick email listing what topics you want to focus our conversation on.

As a bonus, after our call, we will email you our informal guide with the basics of Washington, DC that we wish we knew before we moved here in the late 90s.

If you have specific questions about our expertise that you would like us to answer before scheduling an appointment, feel free to email us at knowyourtravelcosts@gmail.com.
