Juan's plans for moving to Chicago include securing a bank loan since he didn't receive a full scholarship and his salary isn't sufficient. He plans to discuss a potential transfer with his boss, as his company has an office in Chicago. Additionally, he is excited about shopping for winter clothing, as he has never experienced snow before. He has already prepared his documents and found a place to stay for the initial weeks. He hopes everything goes smoothly before classes start.
